OUTBREAK: A Survival RP (OOC/ENDED)

[Lingria]

Post is up.

Just a heads up but Flame and Xanama are both inside a garage and not standing on the street.

Yeah, I know, I made him walk up to the garage, not very hard to hear two ladies talking to each other when everything around you is dead and silent.
Anywho, how was my post? Not too godmoddy?

No godmodding or whatnot. Decent enough post to establish where you are. I only said something because I think the garage was barricaded for the moment so you wouldn't be able to see them from the outside. Perhaps hear them talking if you happened close by. Just saying.

[New Grestin]

If it's not too late to add a paranoiac survivalist chick, I'll throw my hat in the ring.

Name: Sarah Louise Deckard
Nation Name: New Grestin
Birthplace: Indianapolis, Indiana, United States
Ethnicity: Caucasian, English/German descent
Age: 29
Pic/Description:

Always wanted to use this design, credit goes to Deviant artist

Occupation: Waitress
Reason for being in Chicago: Work, ended up stuck when infection hit.

Immunity: Partial

(OPTIONAL)
Personality: Fairly intelligent, Paranoid, misanthropic, loner, gun nut, dry sense of humor, atheist
Skills: Reasonable shot with handguns, excellent with rifles, able to repair most broken weapons, wilderness survival skills
Likes: Movies, Old books, guns, fatty foods, tea, cats
Dislikes: Police, incompetence, politicians, zombies, dogs, rich people
Fears: Mannequins, Darkness

Bio:

Raised on a survivalist compound in Indiana, Sarah was constantly trained by her parents, who believed the government was out to get them. She lived off MREs, learned how to survive in the wilderness, and even learned how to fire a gun. However, the police eventually raided the compound. They discovered Sarah's father had been building bombs with the intention to mail them to the government. Most of the compound's members were arrested and Sarah was sent to Foster Care.

For the next few years, she went from foster home to foster home, eventually being dropped from the program at the age of 18. Lacking a job, home, or family, she remained homeless for several years before she began working various blue-collar jobs. Sarah eventually ended up in Chicago, working as a waitress and living out of a run down apartment. The infection hit while she was working, but she was eventually able to make her way to her apartment and construct rudimentary barricades. Since the world fell, she's begun to break down mentally, leading to her becoming increasingly distrustful of other people. At this point, her only concern is making it through the outbreak alive. She doesn't have any problem with getting a little revenge on the people she sees as responsible for destroying her family, though, namely people associated with the former government.

RP Examples:

It's not a complete list because I only recently started keeping track. I can assure you, however, that this is not my first rodeo.

[Aliasa]

Did someone say they need a psychopath? I'm in.

[Dawkinsia]

Thought I'd bring a psychopath who isn't completely off his rockers, but just enough for a WTF factor... thing.

Name: William "Will" Powers
Nation Name: Dawkinsia
Birthplace: Chicago, Illinois

Ethnicity: Caucasian

Age: 32

Pic/Description: (Under his normal garb)

(Normally)

Occupation: U.S. Army Ranger

Reason for being in Chicago: Visiting family.

Immunity: Gifted.

Personality: After severe emotional trauma, his psyche is fractured. As a result, he's developed a separate personality. The trigger for a 'change' is the removal of his mask.

Unmasked: Naive and idealistic, Will refuses to take the life of a human who has not yet turned, no matter the risk or possible rewards. He is trusting, and is rather immature, almost childish.

Masked: While masked, Will is impassive, calculating. He prefers to avoid conflict, but not out of some code of ethics. Rather, he is based in logic, with a mindset that one can only call a 'survivalist's mindset. He is paranoid, not quick to trust anyone or even let his gaze roam off of them (assuming the situation doesn't call for it). However, those few who have managed to earn his respect and trust will find that he is extremely loyal, even protective, of those he cares about.

Skills: He is proficient in the use of many standard firearms, though he specializes in using accuracy-based rifles like the Beret .50 caliber sniper, as he was an excellent marksman.

He can fight better than the average man in hand-to-hand combat, though he's not exactly some martial arts master.

After becoming infected, much of his past was remembered. The lessons in survival from his 'doomsday prepper' father', the bachelors in chemistry, and the like. Due to this, he has gained-regained, I suppose-a wide variety of miscellaneous skills.

Likes:(Masked) - Efficiency, safety, keeping his allies alive, loyalty, learning.
(Unmasked) - Conversation, moral actions, eating, learning.

Dislikes: (Masked) - Death, inefficiency, danger, stupidity, too much talking, waiting.
(Unmasked) - Death, danger, immoral actions, the degradation of integrity.

Fears: (Masked) - That he can't keep his allies/friends alive. That someone he cares about will end up hurt because of him.
(Unmasked) - That he can't keep his friends/allies alive. That he'll come out of this without his ethics intact.

Bio: Raised by a 'doomsday prepper', gun-nut father and a well-to-do librarian mother, William Martin Powers had an odd, but fulfilling childhood, learning practical skills while sucking in knowledge like a sponge. In school, he earned the nickname 'Will' when he saved a close friend from a pedophile by kicking said adult in the balls before taking his friends hand and running. Over the years, he became known for his loyalty and dedication, and while his parent weren't ecstatic when he joined the military, they supported him.

While he was in the 3rd company, during his first tour of duty, his unit encountered a squad under fire. It was there, in the ensuing firefight, that he met Jane Adams. Red hair, a fiery personality, flawless skin... It wasn't exactly love at first sight, what with her slapping him and calling him an idiot when he jumped on a stray grenade... but it was something. After months in recovery, he rejoined his company, and found himself spending more and more time with Jane. After two tours of duty while dating in private, they decided to marry. The kids came within a few years, two beautiful boys named John and Cale.

Six years passed, and their new jobs and subsequent salary became too small to support their family. Thus, Will rejoined the military, family in his mind. He went through four more tours of duty, rising through the ranks and gaining several medals, yet still visiting his family as often as possible. It was at the end of his second tour, just before the quarantine, that he arrived. He had heard of the bombing, of course, hence his rushing to return. Upon arrival, he sped to his house, finding it empty save for a note.

Something's wrong. We got hit with some sort of biological weapon. People are being turned into... well, I hate to call them 'zombies', but that sums it up pretty well. I'm taking the kids, and leaving this. I hope you get it soon. We're heading to the shed-you know, the one with the 'special' interior? That one. We'll try to hold out as long as we can. Please come soon.
Your wife,
Jane Adams

The shed. A safe area. It was mainly set up in case of foreign attack, a collaborative effort between husband and wife to create as close to a bunker as hey could. Riddled with traps and the like, it was probably the safest place his family could be. Cursing, he sped out of the house, being ambushed by several pale, almost rotting individuals but only gaining a scratch. He reached the shed in a few minutes, but it felt like hours to him. He flung open the door, running inside and...

"No!" He rushed inside, entering the central living area only to find his family's scattered corpses. The bodies of several of the pale people- no, the things, they couldn't be called people anymore-littered the floor. Obviously Jane put up as good a fight as he can. Will looked around and paled. The kids. They had pale skin. Pale skin, and blood-soaked teeth, and they had clumps of Jane's flesh in their hands and-

He broke.

"No. No. No! NO! NO!" He rushed to the pair, fists connecting with a sickening CRUNCH! "Nononononononononononononono!" Each word was made clearer with the sound of a fist striking flesh, until all that could be heard were squelches and the room was filled with a thick silence. Then the sobs came.

An hour later, he cleaned up. He dressed. He picked up what pieces of himself he could. Then he left. Then he wandered.

RP Examples: I haven't RPed in a while, and I can't remember the sites I used to frequent. I can, however, say that I have about 4 years of experience doing such an activity.

[Beiarusia]

A message to all: looking at the immunity tag I was debating on whether or not to add more detail but felt that I should ask for everyone's opinions since the IC has already started.

Should immunity be current (if you chose partial/carrier then you start out already infected) or potential (if you chose partial/carrier you don't necessarily have to start infected but should you contract the virus that would be your fate). To those who are already infected (whether partial, gifted, etc.) it doesn't matter and you can keep on regardless. My concern is more for those with no immunity. If the immunity tag is for potential then those with no immunity would most likely die from infection. If it is current then those with no immunity may become carriers/gifted/etc. should they become infected (unless they wish otherwise).

This slipped my mind and I felt it would be best to figure this out before we run into a situation where a person with no immunity encounters infection. Thoughts?

Name: Charlotte Noble
Nation Name: Charlia
Birthplace: Manhattan, NY
Ethnicity: Caucasian
Age: 22
Pic/Description:

Occupation: No specific occupation, but she can make money through selling art or stories, and also sings.
Reason for being in Chicago: Traveling, stuck after the outbreak

Immunity: None

Personality: Sweet but awkward, timid but loyal, slow to trust and quick to judge, sometimes has nervous breakdowns or panic attacks, slight PTSD
Skills: Drawing, writing, singing, pretty much anything creative and/or intellectual
Likes: Cats, penguins, Japan, friends, being free, being happy
Dislikes: Restrictive things(including ponytails), feeling trapped, loneliness, sorrow, pain, fear
Fears: Dogs, needles, anyone possessing a Y chromosome(I know, right?), romance

Bio: Her parents are dead, and she was passed from foster family to foster family until she finally ended up with a couple who... well, we'll find that out as we go, yes? So far all that is known about this period is that it was very traumatizing. Eventually, though, she ended up in England, where she lived happily for the better part of 3 years and made it into college early(she is really smart(I mean REALLY smart)). But she was ordered by her doctor to take a break after the stress started to give her more attacks(she takes a medication for them, but unfortunately, the required dosage is too high for her to take without suffering ill effects). So she was traveling for a while and ended up in Chicago when the outbreak occurred...

Bio: Her parents are dead, and she was passed from foster family to foster family until she finally ended up with a couple who... well, we'll find that out as we go, yes?(I will edit this part as it is discovered in the RP if I am accepted. That way people don't have to try to remember it all... although it should be pretty memorable...) Eventually, though, she ended up in England, where she lived happily for the better part of 3 years and made it into college early(she is really smart(I mean REALLY smart)). But she was ordered by her doctor to take a break after the stress started to give her more attacks(she takes a medication for them, but unfortunately, the required dosage is too high for her to take without suffering ill effects). So she was traveling for a while and ended up in Chicago when the outbreak occurred...
