[Other FULL] Outbreak: A Zombie Survival RP (SU/OOC)

[Klippy]

It's definitely a goal of mine for us to have a few people reach their hometowns if possible/story-applicable.

I will be getting a storyline post up very soon, folks! Hopefully this gets us back on track, though I may tweak the story completely for us to continue being interactive, interesting, and non-static.

As long as you guys don't mind a first time role player learning the ropes, then I'd like to join! I hope I did everything correctly, but if there's something amiss, let me know and I'll be sure to fix it.

Name: Jacob Curbow
Age: 29
Hometown: Lewiston, Idaho

History:

Spoiler:

Jacob's life was average. Set in the mostly rural town of Lewiston, there wasn't much to do around town. Because of that, he spent most of his days playing video games in his apartment. Jacob had a few friends he liked to play some games with, but not really someone close to him outside of family. When he wasn't working at the local hardware store or playing games, he liked to hang out with family. What they did together always varied from movies to some sport outside. His two younger siblings always tried to out-do their older brother, but Jacob was too quick for them. However, he always lost at Monopoly.

Growing up, Jacob got along with people, but he wasn't a social butterfly. He had a few friends from just about every major social circle, but once again, not someone he would call his best friend. Always invited to the larger parties, but left out on the smaller get-togethers, Jacob never felt like he truly belonged with his classmates. Not that he let it get to him, family was always there. Well, at least for now.

When the zombies first came to Lewiston, Jacob and his family made it out alright. They managed a few days of scavenging before his father became infected. It was then up to Jacob to be the head of the group, and be the wall everyone leaned on. Try as he might, things just got worse the more time went on. After his father, his younger brother was the next to go. Shortly after, his mother, and lastly, his sister. Jacob's only goal now is survival. With his support system ripped out from underneath him, he doesn't play that well with others. He says what he means, and isn't afraid to step on more than a few toes to get his point across.

Looks great! Accepted! I'm writing up a plot post now that will basically intro you quickly so you can join up with the crew without worry. :)

As for Canadian zombies: "Braaaains *chomp* Sorry"

 

[Klippy]

Okay guys! We have an update!

As you can see, we've jumped in time a bit. Jacob is among the survivors - I realized I forgot to include an intro for him, but for now, Nolafus can select how he wants Jacob to have been introduced (perhaps a flashback of some sort), but consider that everyone knows his name at the very least. :)

Have fun with this one, guys! I added a TON of loot. Let me know if you like this plot update or not. :P I dunno if I did it as well as I have in the past.

Oh this is going to be fun, I think I'll have McGregor take a hammer.

 

[jombii]

I'll be assuming that in the during the time jump, everybody became acquainted with everybody's name, okay?

I think that would be reasonable to assume

Yeah, because we've had a few new additions, I thought this would smooth things out so we're not constantly having to meet people every single time.

BUT speaking of that, TheSyren has dropped out of the RP and UnnecessaryLongName is in risk of being dropped since he hasn't logged in since he last posted, so bummer. :/

Wait... I never got Tarot carded... #Icri
Also love all the Canadian jokes in the ooc. You guys are awesome.

Edit: I'm on my phone for a little while and the hover over thing doesn't work... but I'll figure something out. Anybody wanna do a JP, Alex is gonna beat the crap out of people with a shovel. Shovels are amazing.



Oh God they're gonna use our brains to play hockey!

Me either! I really wanted to try out a Tarot reading. :P

Oop! If you still can't get it, just tell me what you intend to pick up and I can get the weights and stuff for ya.

Just remember your stats before you go beating any zombie skulls. ;) There aren't any looters this session, at least not immediately nearby. :)

Oh yeah, Her strength is 2, and the shovel requires 2. So I believe she'll be able to use it effectively, but not be insanely OP.
I was thinking of grabbing some toilet paper, a newspaper, mayonnaise, and crackers.
Very weird shopping list...

I don't think I want to know what you plan on doing with those and a shovel.

Creative writing, I'll be doing some very creative writing.

 

[gimmepie]

I want to get started on my next post, but I'm honestly not sure what to have McGregor do. I might wait to see what someone else does and see if it gives me any inspiration.

 

[Klippy]

If I feel inspired tonight, I'll post something up. :P Animus and I are discussing a neat little side plot for Hawke and Bratton right now, but then I'll do my own post for Mark!

 

[jombii]

If I partially finish studying, I might have something up tonight. I'm thinking that Dennis would have the bat if possible. :))

 

[gimmepie]

I got my post up :D
This is definitely going to be good... well it already is but you get the point xD

 

[jombii]

I'll be having my post up soon. I just have a trial hearing sometime and I am needing some time to prepare sorry. :(
