I should ask, for interaction with NPCs, do I have free reign to do with them what I please? Dialogue, actions, etc.

If you feel comfortable writing for Jones the by all means, otherwise I'll step in as needed.

I could add more. What do you suggest, I have a bit more time, to add on but not make an entire extra paragraph.

Its usually the aforementioned people, then the stoner, then the hot one, and finally the jock/prep guy that dies.


I'm not very familiar with zombie narratives, so... who are the least likely to die?

That's more slasher narrative. In the original zombie movie, the black guy survives.
I don't know what I'm s'posed to do.

Make a narrative. You're alone and going into a place that is, by all accounts, dead. How do you react? What do you do? Thoughts? Feelings? Another way to put it is that you are rushing for the main quest instead of taking your time to explore the side plots. There's no right thing to do but giving an in-depth account of what's happening is a lot more satisfying to read as opposed to rushing in and hitting a zombie on the head. Plus, with Kaidou, you could even go through the aquarium together.

For the most part this RP will be pretty slow-paced once things settle down, meaning you can take your time to make great posts instead of rushing out a paragraph.

Would a strong but slow and non-flexible [But not fat] 18 year old gun and axe wielding logger have a good chance of living?
Or an 18 year old black boxer and basketball player from the hood with brass knuckles and a nail board or something of the sort?

I will, but I need to make sure Kaidou doesn't rush in and do things while I'm gone overnight and at school to have some time for perfection, as good as it turns out to be.

You can just ask Kaidou how he wants to do things. It's perfectly fine to plan things in the OOC as needed.

I'm perfectly fine with anything, so I'll let you take the lead here.

I dunno. I don't really watch zombie movies that much to know the full on typecast of characters and what order they die in. Those characters aren't really stereotypes either, so i'd say you're good to go.
I don't know what I'm s'posed to do.

WIP

Name: Gabriel Reyes
Nationality: Chicago, USA
Ethnicity: Caucasian
Age/DOB: 17, January 20, 1998
Pic/Description:
Image


Occupation: Guild Management
Immunity: Gifted

Equipment:

Skills: Self anointed gun expert, he is very knowledgeable (understatement) about firearms, down to the very bare bone specifics for many. He can often reel off facts and critiques on the guns he finds. Clear and leveled head, Gabriel can make decisions in the heat of the moment. With his tactical mind and natural instincts, he can prove to be of strategic importance when push comes to shove and will no doubt be one of the first to react when a situation turns south. Ambidextrous
Weakness: Physical labor of any kind is an automatic nope for him. Despite what he claims, Gabriel has no actual experience with any weapon whatsoever. His curiosity often gets the best of him. Also unfortunately for him, Gabriel is lactose intolerant (though it's on the less serious spectrum of people)
Personality: Gabriel favors using a larger, advanced vocabulary, preferring to think of himself as mentally superior to everyone else. He is often smug and arrogant although deep inside quite self-conscious. He can come off as lazy, annoying and about a million other things at first but if given time to know him, one will not only find Gabriel a useful ally, but a loyal friend who's smarts should be able to keep everyone around him alive.
Likes: Chess, Cleanliness, Science, Video Games, Studying the blade, comic books (and lets just put down anything under "geek" while we're at it) and a place he can call home.
Dislikes: Spicy food, Corruption, Chaos, Strict Rules, Having to help out.
Fears: Claustrophobia, Mysophobia and Germaphobia.

Bio: (Two paragraphs minimum.)

RP Examples: Paragon Industries The Infinites

Also, reading your post, if you so wanted you could have the guy go with you in finding the bat?

Didn't they all meet at Sears Tower the first time?

Yeah. But last time Luke was only drawn to the tower because Vincent set off an IED. AA hasn't come back, has he? What's going to bring everyone together at the tower this time?

Samantha wants to go looking for her father, but I'll likely have an Objective pulling people towards conflict the tower.


Posted a quick response. Don't expect me to respond so quickly every time. Also, Samantha uses British Sign Language which is completely different from ASL, meaning if anyone knows ASL they'd still be unable to communicate effectively.

Honestly, I'll get to that tomorrow night. It's been a long day getting everything square away here and I'm a bit exhausted. That, and I have to work in the morning. But his men will get moving soon enough.
