Zombie Apocalypse RPG 2.0 (New characters always welcome)

[Raxous]

As he ran away from the shumbling zombs that were slowly marching forward to devour him, Ian thought of how hecould've transferred to a german medical school last term. "should've taken my chances there" he panted as he ran from the oncoming horde. Out of the blue a quick zombie lept at him, "shit", he exclaimed and scissor-kicked it in the head, breaking it's neck. Ian had stayed in the town for his friends, but they were all dead now. when he thought he had gotten a safe distance away, he stopped. He found himself looking at a hospital. as he walked toward the door he thought to himself, "(at least I can get supplies here)" he had a large gash on his arm from a piece of glass that cut him when hewas jumping out a window; he hadn't had time to suture the wound. he knew with-out fixing the wound and finding a decent weapon, he would die. He enters the hospital and goes behind the reception desk looking for the medical supply closet on the map. he decides to take the map with him.

OOC: Kind of new to some RPs, used to do it as a kid. Also, call me cheap for starting myself near others but I'm a healer, it's what I do. and I need to find a weapon in a non-cheap way.

P.S. my age is 18 and what have you, most of my char is based on me minus last name age and college edu.

 

[Sosakitty]

OutOfCharacter: This is the person I want to play as. I don't know if I'll be accepted but I'll be happy to play if you could think of an appropriate starting point for my Char.

OOC: As Voodoopigs' said, you can jump in regardless of who you choose to play as or where you choose to start at.

Vinny slowly regains his senses and sees a strange man in S.W.A.T. regalia leaning over him. "Who are you?" Vinny asks.

 

[Flying-Emu]

Groaning in pain, Terrence clutches at his sliced tendon. "Idiot! A damn bandaid isn't going to help that!" He attempts to push himself to his feet, only succeeding in crashing painfully to the floor. "Dammit, I can't even walk..." Rolling to face the group, he says "I need a doctor. The only way... if I remember right... is to pull the tendon back down the calf." A shot of pain hits him with a grimace. "And unless any of you has a Ph.D, I'm done for."

"There's got to be at least ONE doctor somewhere in this city!"

Coincidence? I need to stop just skimming over previous posts... You're my saviour, bro.

 

[Mr Fatherland]

"Vinny meet Reuben,Reuben meet Vinnie,right,sorry to cut the introductions short,but in case you haven't noticed there are zombies waiting to eat me in juicy fillets and that's not in my todays to-do list,Reuben,Vinnie,let's go and look for things that will get Terrence up so he can run away again when some zombies come."

OOC:Craig thinks Terrence is a coward because when something bad is happening,he always seems to run away.

 

[Sosakitty]

OOC: This RPG is exploding in popularity!

"Hey, don't be an ass." Vinny says as he gets up. "The last thing we need now is an argument."
He walks down the hallway and into the morgue. He remembers passing by a map on the wall. It shows a detailed layout of the floors. "Now, there's gotta be a doctor around here who survived the outbreak. There's a good chance that, if anyone lived, they would be hiding in the medical supply room, which is just above us on the first floor. There's also some other supply rooms on the other floors, but something is still roaming around up there. Okay, here's the plan. Malachi, you stay here and defend Terrence. Everyone else, let's get to the supply closet."

 

[Raxous]

After filling his duffel with what he thinks will be adequate medical supplies,he sutures his arm. "I ought to exlpore some more of the hospital" he says quietly in thought. Once he leaves the supply closet however, he's surrounded by well-armed survivors, "well, if you're crazy shoot me now, as far as I know most zombs don't tote around guns. If you're not crazy...mind helping a fellow survivor out?" he surveys the rag-tag group. "Some of you look a little worse for wear", he says with a chuckle. "I may not look it but i'm a med student, and while I can't raise the dead, though it looks like that's already been done, I can patch you up a bit.

OOC: can raise health 1 to 2 status levels based on time given, can cure poison, and slow infection. also can stop bleeding-out and reinstate movement by suturing wounds and setting bones.

 

[Sosakitty]

Vinny, not knowing if the footsteps behind him belong to the survivors or zombies, treks through the hospital. A man bursts out of the supply closet. He gives a speech about being a medical student and stuff like that. "We get it." Vinny says. "We have a guy who's pretty badly hurt. He's down in the morgue." Vinny says as he turns around and begins walking back in the direction he came. He turns to the man and says "You know how to fix a cut tendon?"

 

[Raxous]

Feeling that he's not in any immediate harm, Ian relaxes. "yeah, I can fix him up", he says, as he starts to follow the mystery man, "lead me to him".

 

[Sosakitty]

"Alright then." Vinny says as he leads the man to the elevator. It reaches the morgue. "You guys still alive?" Vinny shouts down the hall.

All roads going out of the city are under a foot of sand. The outskirts of the city are pretty badly covered, though it is still relatively easy to get around out there. More crows have arrived in the city. More are showing up in the day, some have been spotted at night, and the flocks that invade the city at dusk and dawn have increased in size. What is stranger is the fact that an unnatural fog descends upon the city in the morning hours. It's not very thick, and it usually occurs between 7:00 AM and 10:00 AM. Something that could possibly become a sandstorm is brewing not very far from the city. Thankfully, no tornadoes have been spotted. Well, good luck!

Glass breaks at a nearby shop

"Crap. Not what I was hoping for."

Name:Thommas Macalese
Age:23
Occupation:Telephone Operator, Part time Looter
Bio: Tom was a Red-haired nerd who worked a his fathers company for 5 years operating phones and doing errands. He had a hard time saying no. He generally scoured the Internet at work and hated his job. Once the rioting occured, He immediatly took to the streets and procured any sort of valuble item he could before the Zombies came, his father desperatly urged him to come back to the van on the way out of Vegas, but his call went unanswered. Once he realized he was stuck here, he holed himself inside a small baracade for a week before comming out for food. On his second week of scouring. he returned to find the SWAT scouring his Safehouse. If he learned one thing from the Internet was to stay away from the SWAT. So he immediatly turned around and started walking around to find another safe house before rescue comes.

...

A shot from a sniper takes out the zombie sneaking up on him

"OH SH-"

He muffles his scream before the sniper hears him and ducks into the shop.

Oh Crap, what do I do now? he thought

<spoiler=OOC> My character is a Pack Mule

 

[Sosakitty]

OOC: I just read the Wikipedia article [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Achilles_tendon_rupture#Treatment] on ruptured tendons, and I can safely say Terrence is screwed.

"Guys?" Vinny shouts down the hall. He leads the medical student through the morgue and into the lab. They progress further down the hall. He hears loud thudding coming from the ceiling. Whatever that thing is, it must be coming back. Lights begin exploding in tune with the thuds just as they did when they first arrived. The thuds started above the morgue, and are coming closer. The thing must be following them, because the thuds have picked up in pace. The ceiling begins to split. A large crack begins forming along the ceiling. It begins completely collapsing in on itself, the ceiling splitting from the first floor. It collapses in sections, starting at the entrance to the morgue and ending at the doors to the chapel where they met the priest. "Run!" Vinny shouts at the top of his lungs.

OOC: I will neither confirm nor deny that I'm setting up another boss fight.

 

[Raxous]

Ian stares in disbelief at the pounding as he runs along with Vinny. "What the hell is that thing?!", he yells out, "get the wounded and take them along, we can worry about your state after we're not about to die!". As he was running along, Ian realized the only real weapon he had was a surgical scalpel; He ran a little faster. Ian observed his surroundings to find a safe place but to no avail, and the pounding was getting louder.


OOC: If his tendon is ruptured he is variably screwed, if it's severed however which I think it would be (iron maidens have spike/blade things not dull bars) the tendon can be sutured or knotted back together (suturing is safer).

 

[Sosakitty]

Vinny slides the last few feet into the strange chapel. He collects himself as he sits behind the closed doors. He pushes himself to his feet, and tries to open the door. It won't budge. He shoots the door a couple of times, and then begins forcing it open. "Almost....got it!" The left door is far enough out of the way for them to fit through. "You guys wait here." he says as he slips through. It's extremely dark. The collapse must have taken out a generator. The hallway and the area above it have both completely collapsed, revealing the early morning sky. We were in the hospital all night! Vinny thinks. The sound of lights flickering to life fills the hospital as power is rerouted to emergency generators. Floodlights flicker on, bringing the laboratory from darkness to dim light. The outline of a gigantic figure is standing farther down what used to be the hallway. It's easily eight feet tall, and twice as wide as Vinny. It's head snaps toward Vinny. It begins sprinting toward him. "Shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiittttt!!!!!!!!!" Vinny shout as he slides back through the chapel doors. He slams the door back into place, and rests against it. An extreme force slams into the other side of the door. Vinny is sent flying across the room, slamming into the altar.

 

[Neon Orange Ninja]

"H-Hey, no need to get so violent." Stuttered Tom, "I heard Sniper Shots and fled for cover"

"My Name's Tom, Thommas Macalese." Said Tom, Regaining his composure and offering his hand to mysterious stranger. "What'cha doin here?"

 

[Neon Orange Ninja]

"Oh, my apologies. I was just looking for some more weapons." said Tom returning the glare.

"You wouldn't mind if I set up shop here with you?"
