OUTBREAK (Sandbox/Survival/Horror - OOC / ALWAYS OPEN)

[Beiarusia]

Name: Hamish Ferguson

Only issue would be the RP Example. Aside from travel restrictions, Chicago was mostly functional until closer to Day 7 (official quarantine would begin at this time). At Day 3 there may have been some issues, but people could still walk the streets, and Hammish could have probably been free to leave as travel was restricted not outright banned yet.

OP NOTE: A lot of people are getting this wrong, so let me clarify: Infected are NOT zombies. They are NOT undead. They are living creatures and require food, water, and oxygen. They die if they bleed out or if you shoot them anywhere but the head and hit something important (they just may not go down immediately if an attack is not instantly fatal). Infected are humans with severe brain damage. They have regressed to a feral state. Keep this in mind.

My PC just calls them ghouls because they are horrible monsters

Biography:

Hamish was a normal young adult. He didn’t drink, do drugs or fight. He was performing OK at university, but wanted to travel the world. He planned a trip to the US during his gap year, going from NYC to Los Angeles on a road trip, after recently receiving his license. He booked the flights, and one week later, he was in NYC. At the airport, he rented a VW Jetta, as it was the cheapest car available. He then begun his road trip. First, he drove to a gas station and bought some water, to go with his shortbread he brought from home. By the time he got to Chicago, he had 3 bottles left. Since he was tired, he booked a room in a motel and went to sleep. By the time he had woken up from his sleep, the bioweapon had been launched. Since then, he’s been staying in his motel, eating shortbread and some chocolate he found in the minibar. He’s been tempted to leave his motel, after seeing people with guns shooting at “the infected”, but hasn’t left yet.

RP Example:

Hamish clambered out of his bed. It had been 3 days since the quarantine was set up. He walked up to the window and looked outside. His Jetta was sitting there, mostly undamaged. After that, he sat down on his bed and checked his phone. The time read 11:34, and his battery percentage was 9%. Time for breakfast. He walked to his backpack and pulled out his shortbread.
He took a bit, then went to look out of the window again. While eating, he said aloud to himself, “You know what? I’ll take a drive today. Maybe I’ll find some other survivors.” Hamish then changed into other clothes that were in his suitcase, grabbed his backpack and car keys, and left the motel. He then walked over to his car, unlocked it, and got in. Now that he was out of the motel, he could see the damage that the bioweapon had caused. Blood lined the streets, and broken glass was everywhere. Hamish was shocked. But, nevertheless, he put the key in the ignition and turned it. Nothing. He turned it again, and heard the engine sputter slightly. Then, he twisted it again, and the engine sputtered about 6 times before starting. The low fuel warning light came on, and Hamish got so annoyed he slammed his head against the steering wheel and then began punching it. After about 20 seconds, he calmed down, turned off the engine and got out. “Well that’s just fantastic, isn’t it?” he said with an angry tone in his voice.

Oh. Wow, plot twist! Man, I thought the building would be safe, but nope. A hound was in there. Well, it seems like Jessie might not make it.

I mean, it's really easy for a child to slip into shock after something like that.

That would be bad, but from what I've written it won't happen. But you know the threat of an infection could make matters worse(not only the virus infection, but like other more regular ones,)

EDIT: done, posted my first IC of this RP

[Cruxa]

Anywhere within reason.

Just a clarifying question: are their pain receptors weakened? I seem to remember them having a considerable tolerance for pain, but it's been a while since the last Outbreak RP.

Officially it varies between individuals. In general there pain receptors are filled or else nonfunctional. Most can shrug off horrendous injuries as if it was nothing.

Oh, and Wallenburg, my post was meant to set up your character's meeting.

K then, I'll try to think of a reason for him to go inside. Maybe Leonard offers him a second, albeit substantially smaller, reward for making sure Austin makes it out in one piece. Something like a tool that Steven could make good use of.

Or he thinks the first guy will probably die so hedges his bets on sending two guys on the hope that one will come back.

Im writing a post now Hunt. Just so you know.

Will post either tonight or tomorrow.

Is there a weather system in this RP?

Name: Edward Arthur Hastings

A few minor things. Edward looks to be in his 40's but is only 26.

Believe it or not, but the drawing is based on the picture of a British writer, who was 24 at the time. I guess it's the mustache that makes him seem old.

I finished editing the app. Could someone verify it now?
