A fine invasive drizzle started over Paris, lit up by searchlights probing the evening sky for allied bombers. A coulumn of Nazi soldiers marched past the Arc de Triomphe in the wet dusk, the captain at the front screaming out directions. Lights and sounds isssued from the red light district, indicating that the business of pleasure was still well and truly alive, while masking the activities of furtive individuals moving from building to building. High above it all, a German SS Heerführer[footnote]General[/footnote] stands among the clouds in the cockpit of a Messerschmitt Me 323 Gigant cargo plane.
"Land der Ebene. Ich möchte die Ladung auf den Straßen von Dawn."[footnote]Land the plane. I want the cargo out on the streets by dawn.[/footnote] He turns to face the large cage in the middle of the cargo hold, a large construction of iron with nothing but a solitary figure inside. The figure is clothed in little more than rags and looks unwell, with black teeth, thin hair and pale skin. The Heerführer adresses the figure in a voice one would use to adress a lost child.
"Guten Abend Herr Dämon. Wie fühlen Sie sich?[footnote]Good evening Mr demon. How are you feeling?[/footnote] The figure instantly runs the length of the cage, screaming incoherently until it slams into the cast iron bars. It still tries to reach the Heerführer, clawing at the intervening air and snarling like a rabid animal.
"Ah ah ah. Du sollst nicht Fest, bis wir den Boden erreichen. Bis dahin haben eine glückliche Flucht."[footnote]Ah ah ah. You shall not feast until we reach the ground. Until then, have a happy flight.[/footnote]He walks from the cage into the cockpit, and slams the door shut on the ravening creature with a final clang.

------

It's Zombie Paris. The great city of love ensnared in the grip of Nazi oppression and something much, much worse. You'll have to fight your way through the alleyways of Paris, across its famous boulevards and even up the Eiffel tower, to defeat whoever is behind the necrotic menace.

It's auditions. Currently everyone who has submitted a sheet is in, but if someone submits a better sheet when we're full I'll have to cut the worst-written sheet.

In about 24 hours (7:00pm 6th July Melbourne time) I'm going to close the thread, cut off any surplus players and start the game. People okay with that?
