#27: Jul 19th 2011 at 1:12:42 PM

Name: Ben London

Gender: Male

Age: 18

Occupation: Unemployed

Appearance: Ben is of just below average height, with short, messy brown hair. He's just a touch underweight, too, though not unhealthily so.

Biography: For most of the first seventeen years of his life, Ben was a sickly, weak child. He got good grades in school, but elected to take a year off before college to try to get his health in order. At the time of the outbreak, a regime of diet and exercise caused most of his ailments to disappear, though he was not quite up to average strength or endurance.

Traits: Below average strength, clear thinking, good at controlling his fear.

Other: Ben is no longer as sickly as he once was, though this may be due to his newfound healthy lifestyle. In the high stress, low activity environment of a barricaded house, he may backslide.

Nil, a new sci-fi/horror story that you should read and review! (Updated 4/something) ''The gate opens.

  • Name: Ken Westbrund
  • Gender: male
  • Age: 31
  • Occupation: Currently unemployed, he did have a job as a Blackwater Mercenary, until he got himself fired, mostly due to a scandal resulting from an old enemy saying he molested a secretary. Well, there is also his attitude.
  • Description: A rather tough looking man, he seems young in the face, though he shows his age a little more in his stance, a person who has seen violence before.
  • Brief Biography: He was always a troublesome person, always picking fights with just about everyone, just to make sure nobody insulted his mother, who was the only parent at home. He is very protective of everyone around him, and will not tolerate anyone being violent toward a loved one. He joined Blackwater at age 19, right out of high school, fought some, and got fired because of slander. Nowadays, he spends his days going to bars to keep himself sharp, and...otherwise being a wasteful guy. He often has to beg for money from his miserly older brother.
  • Traits: A great big hot head, a tad Ax-Crazy, tad Heroic Sociopath, when he heard his old enemy, now another mercenary had been bad mouthing him, he outright punched the guy, and then while he was reeling, busted his happy sack. He was always like this, even as a kid. He does regret picking some fights, as he claims "violence is not the answer, except when the other guy damn well deserves it." He has been kicked out of ten bars, mostly for sending bouncers to the hospital.
  • Other(s): He does not have much in the way of weapons, just his trusty pair of pistols.

Hmm. Military. Um.
Character sounds fairly...interesting, and sadly...I feel he doesn't fit the theme of what I'm looking for.
Guns aren't incredibly useful in this, as gunshots will often bring more undead to us.
Unfortunately, I'm looking for characters that are regular day Joes/Janes; which is why I'm looking for people who are things like plumbers, students, waitresses, etc.
The characters need to be able to learn (Stuff like how to reload a gun, properly fire a rifle, even how to clean wounds) as the RP progresses, and frankly your character sounds like he'd actually blast through everything.
Nothing against you, I just don't want a merc in the group. smile

(Also, a majority of weapons can be found/made at the Farmhouse.)

  • Name: Gabrielle “Gabby” Connors
  • Gender: Female
  • Age: 27
  • Occupation: Office worker/Temp
  • Description: 5’7” tall, average weight. Fair skin, brown hair, brown eyes. Her hair is somewhat messy, since she hasn’t been able to style it since the outbreak. She is wearing her office clothes: A white button-down blouse and khaki skirt.
  • Brief Biography: Not much to say here. She was an office worker before the outbreak. Single, lived on her own, a half-decent cook. She’s been clever and stealthy enough thus far to avoid any direct conflicts with the Horde.
  • Traits: Quiet, Helpful, Skilled with a rifle.
  • Other(s): She is skilled in using rifles as her father used to take her hunting when she was younger. She’s never killed anything without someone nearby to observe. She becomes almost robotic when she’s given a task to complete, but whether it’s because she’s traumatized or if it’s just her personality is left to the imagination.

(To clarify the outbreak just, just starts when the RP starts.)

I suggest to all of you that you think of ways of making it towards the Farmhouse. For example, I will be crashing my car. Be creative! waii
I'm also going to wait for one more person before moving on and creating the main topic and the discussion topic.

Doublepost. Character incoming!

Name: Linda McArrin
Gender: Female
Age: 46
Occupation:Chef
Description:A tall, lean woman, Caucasian with rapidly greying black hair. Her eyes are a faded sort of green, and usually framed in a pair of thin-rimmed spectacles. She dresses in practical outfits, army surplus clothing by the look of it. Although it's obvious that she's past her prime, she still carries herself like she doesn't take any level of foolishness.
Brief Biography: Linda's week had been a bad one, but not so bad that when she found herself forced to flee the city after having slain her ex-living ex-husband, she could safely assume it had managed to get worse. Armed with only the clothes and miscellany she could scrounge together at short notice and an expensive knife set, she set up for the more rural areas, hoping things were less immediately lethal out there.
Traits: Calmer than she has any right to be about current events, can be a bit patronizing, but ultimately means well.
Other(s): Red/Green colorblind.

I've been wanting to do this type of RP for some time now!

Name: Lucia Valentine

Gender: Female

Age: 27

Occupation: Lawyer

Description: Long, black hair, hazel eyes, pale skin, and a well proportioned body.

Brief Biography: She was a lawyer... What?... Stop looking at me like that! It's not that I'm incapable of thinking up a backstory, but... that kinda is her life's story. Good grades, went through college with flying colors, and became a lawyer... That's pretty much her life as she sees it. She threw herself into her work, forced herself beyond her limits. She had no family after she moved out, and no time for friends. No personal life, and some people, speaking behind her back in jealous whispers, watching as she achieved her latest promotion, wondered if she was even capable of feeling something for others. The answer, of course, is yes... she just both prefers and tends to not.

Traits: Opportunistic, cold when not in a life threatening situation, logical.

Equipment: Crowbar, pipe-wrench.

Name: Jacqueline “Jackie” Carte

Gender: Female

Age: 23

Occupation: Intern at a non-profit organization

Description: 5’4 with an average frame. Not very athletic besides jogging occasionally. She has medium brown skin and short black hair in a pixie cut. She’s dressed casually, a dark grey hooded sweatshirt over a green shirt and a pair of well worn jeans.

Brief Biography: Jackie’s the daughter of a journalist and a restaurant owner, and has two younger brothers, ages 12 and 10. She didn’t have a particularly dramatic childhood. When the outbreak started to hit its stride, her family left to stay with her grandparents in Canada. Jackie stayed, at first, assuming that this illness would all blow over.

Traits: Bookish and fairly chatty, Jackie’s cheerful and eager to help. She tends to stubbornly tries to take on more tasks than she can handle. Determined and somewhat clever.

Other(s): Has a revolver that she grabbed from her parent's now abandoned home and a couple fancy steak knives that her father bought her.

The Equipment makes no sense for a lawyer. A WWII spade and a pipe wrench? A majority of weapons can be found in the farmland. Let's try to be realistic and not have everyone start off with a weapon, besides...this will have more character development and drama than it is action. (There will be butt loads of action though.)

Last time I checked, during the Swine Flu scare...I didn't see anyone carrying a handgun around. Remember, the undead aren't appearing just yet. (People are just afraid of the Flu, right now.)

Anyway, other than the strange habit of gun paranoia...your characters are accepted.
