ANNOUNCEMENT! 12/24/09: As of now, anyone joining after today is auto accepted as long as they follow the rules and post their profile! POST YOUR PROFILE IN THE THREAD! I'll find it.
FOR THOSE OF YOU BEING ILLITERATE. I encourage you to be more literate, but I won't kill you for it, okay? Just please, for my sake, no god moding. EVER.
AS FOR THE FUTURE OF THE STORYLINE! I see that we have two organized groups and then a couple of stragglers in the RP. My group, consisting of me, Grimlock, and any newbies to the RP that decide to post right now, and then the other group, consisting of several members. What will happen is that the two groups will converge or meet somewhere in the city and then we can all post as a group. Anyone joining after that will be found by us. Eventually, the group will be split up again though.
ALSO! The prophet and his opposer, who is yet to be named will start their broadcasts over the radios of the city. The Prophet will post in GREEN, and the opposer will post in BLUE. You must choose a side of the Prophet or the opposer! You will learn more about them through their broadcasts.
R U L E S NO GOD MODING. The only powerful characters will be the ones I assign.
Please read the entire characters section before posting at all. The "Zombies" section needs to be skimmed, but since it's such a long area, it doesn't need to be read thoroughly. You just need to know that the zombies are called "Acids" and that they melt.
No Mary-Sues. I will delete your posts. And ban you if it gets THAT bad.
This is not L4D, or Resident Evil, don't make it that way. Please.
If you post once, then don't quit out on us. If you do decide to quit, either PM me or (make things easier for me) delete all of your posts in this thread.
THIS IS A SEMI LITERATE ROLEPLAY. For your sake and mine, use correct grammar and punctuation, as well as capitalization. If you fail to do one of these, and make a couple of spelling mistakes, that's okay, but doing all means you are illiterate and you are not allowed to post in this thread. Go make your own RP and don't steal my plot.
Speaking of plot. DO NOT MAKE YOURSELF THE HEAD OF CHANGES. That means, don't completely destroy my plot with yours or I will keel you. Yes, keel.
Also, keep the out of character talk to a minimum. I am very strict about my roleplays. Do not question my authority.The Characters: This thread will mainly consist of YOUR Original Characters, or OCs. I will list characters of interest, which will be my characters, and also characters we need, like job openings.
Characters of Interest: Over the radio, there has been a broadcast of a man who says he is the one spreading the virus. People call him by "The Prophet" if they like him, and "The Liar" if they hate him. You may not claim this character, he will be mutually controlled by me. He will not appear in the story very often, but you will hear of his broadcasts and his tellings.
We need:(I'll add your name here if you claim the spot, but I will remove it if you fail to post or fill the position.) Pharmaceutical workers: A Head doctor of the facility, A head inventor of the facility, A medicine specialist,
Others: A weapons expert that works in a gun shop, A soft-hearted but professional sniper (BoG Sane Psycho), some Prophet followers, some Prophet haters, The Zombies: Ths zombies in this RP are NOT going to be like other zombies. The virus, known commonly as "The Acid Plague", is a virus that attacks the host's skin. Here, I'll go into the specifics of the virus.
First of all, I'll say that the disease acts like a virus and a parasite. The virus is smart, and has a mind of it's own, but cannot mutate, like other viruses can. Therefore it can't become airborne. But it can survive in water or in the shed flesh of a victim.
Spreading the virus: AP can be a very contagious disease. If the flesh of an infected victim contaminated a water supply, like a river, or a lake, it can thrive outside of the human body for up to two weeks, average life being one week. The contaminated flesh of the carriers is highly toxic, if touched, it can cause severe burning and if it stays on contact for long enough, it will cause infection. Ingestion of any form of contaminated material will cause death in at least an hour, at most, victims have been reported to have survived with their stomach's being torn apart by acids due to the virus for days, depending on amount ingested and also the level of contamination.
Symptoms of the virus: The infected area, whether it be from a bite, or contact with a host, will start with extreme burning pain and skin peeling. Afterwards, if the infected spot becomes bad enough, it will burrow into the flesh, causing severe injury and often blood poisoning. A lot of patients die from blood loss at this stage. Next, comes the initial signs of turning. If the infected spot is in fact contagious, any contact with it will also cause these symptoms. The infected host will fall into a coma-like state, and have been reported to be heard whispering and talking nonsense in their sleep. The reason being, the virus, after attacking the infection wound, will go directly to the brain to seize control of the body. The body's white blood cells will attack the skin, causing the skin to lose pigmentation and become weak. The skin will tear easily, but will not be contagious, except around infection site. After the virus successfully takes over the brain and nervous sytem, the body will awaken. The victim will reanimate from the coma, and then the virus will start eating away at the flesh. The skin will drip off like slime, because of the acid that the virus causes. The shedding skin will burn through wood and thin metal, as well as causing burning and initial symptoms on other human skin. After the virus has wasted away it's host to nothing but a skeleton, it will quickly finish off any remaining scraps of flesh and organs, and then drip away with the melting flesh to find a new host.
The Infected's Actions: The infected humans are known as Acid Zombies, a lot call them just "Acids". The victim's brain, for the first half of his zombie life cycle, will still be active, partially. All rational thoughts will be halted, but not completely stopped. Victims of the virus have been seen resuming daily activities, returning to home, only to see their family dead, and then spending the rest of their short lifetime mourning, for what it seems. The infecteds have been known to mumble, and sometimes scream out their loved one's names, and to hold out their arms for embrace. And also, some have been seen mauling their families to death in a wild rage. The stage of their emotion depends on the state of their brain. Their only source of true attacking is their claw-like hands, formed by unknown mutations within the human flesh reacting with the acid. Their teeth become elongated and sharp, also due to mutations within bone marrow and bone remodeling processes.
How to kill one: A normal headshot will not kill them instantly, as the virus is still in control, the body will continue to attack for a good couple of minutes. However, a headshot that completely separates that head from the body will kill an infected victim in a matter of seconds. Those last seconds of life will be of no movement or attempt at attacking. The Setting: Time: Near Future, 2158. The world is overpopulated. Oh joy. General Place: A city called Fortune, located in present day Colorado, houses the biggest industry of medical equipment in the world, called MegaTree Pharmaceuticals. (What ever you think, the company itself has NOTHING to do with the virus. Maybe a couple of it's workers were involved...) The city also houses a number of underground tunnels, called vaults, where the medical equipment is sent, and then is transported around the world. Places of Interest: Vault 193, a vault where the infection supposedly started. Investigators love and hate this place. Vault 165, a vault that has been closed off ever since the infection started. Voices can be heard from inside it's thick walls...Vault Sectors 50-90, a section of vaults that are very familiar to the workers of MegaTree. A lot of them were born in this sector. In the city: Meredian Locale, an apartment complex and restaurant chain dedicated to serving the Prophet. If you don't like the Prophet, they will kill you.
Other things you should know before posting...
This is a roleplay with no genre limits. You an turn your half into a romance, a horror, a mystery, or anything else! I'm allowing you to do what you can do with this situation. I don't want this RP to be purely survival tactics, throw in a little spice! See the next post for th sign up. Official Approved List: SmexyFur, Kishiru324, Thaddeus Grimlock, II DarkRoxas II, Lestat_616, XxLiving_for_HardstylesxX, BOG sane psycho, o-gangsta-o, undeadpriest15, dragons_eat_people, khazzy kat, Twilight_stairwell

...The Sign Up Form!First and foremost, before you decide to sign up, I STRONGLY suggest that you read the character section, at LEAST skim the zombie section, and for god's sake, you MUST read the rules.
Next, fill out a character sheet. I have it in nice code format for you to copy and paste! You can delete the info in parentheses, just make sure to pay attention to what it has to say.
COPY AND PASTE THIS FOR GODS SAKE.
[size=10][b]Character Name: (Full name, alias, and nickname)[/b] [b]Gender and Sexuality:[/b] [b]Birth Date, Current Age and Hometown: (You can make up other city names for this if you wish, but all of the pharmaceutical workers were born in Fortune, in Vaults 50-90)[/b] [b]Appearance: (Include wardrobe and outer appearance, also weapons of choice if you'd like.)[/b] [b]Attitude:[/b] [b]Strengths and Weaknesses: (For weaknesses, don't say none, everyone has a weakness, whether it be physical or mental.)[/b]
[b][color=red]Occupation: (Choose this from the first post, if it's available! You can just leave this one out altogether and be a normal survivor on the streets, but that's no fun.)[/color][/b][/size]
This may be subject to changes.
ONE MORE THING. I reallllllly don't want to see your character's appearance to be some kawaiinekoazngirl. Okay? This is a zombie RP, not some animu s**t. I don't think a little girl could survive.(Unless you plan on doing it jokingly and then killing her off, that's okay.)
And if you can't find a picture to fit your character, just describe them.

Here's a couple of guidelines before you post:+Keep the status at SEMI-LITERATE, IF NOT LITERATE. I really don't want to kick anyone out. This means, use capitalization, punctuation, and correct spelling. I don't want to go through and edit everyone's posts. +Follow the TOS, this means, no graphic sex, and keep the violence to a video-game level. +I want to see some interaction in this roleplay! Get online as often as you can and we can keep this RP going smoothly. +As for Out of Character speak, put it in double parentheses, ((like this)), and in size 9 or 10, like this!+And for posting, if you use a set color, keep using it please so I don't get confused. XD HAPPY POSTING! I'll start! It was Saturday, a day usually accompanied by a busy day at the marketplace. Busy with humans. Now, it was busy with the rotting and melting corpses that whispered their final words through their decayed lips.
Arya took a step forward, holding his shotgun over his shoulder and staring at the moving crowd that stood before him, idle. Lifting up his mask, a black gas mask that fit his face tight. He bit his lip slightly, covering his mouth in horror at the sight of he monsters. But he knew that they'd deserved it.
Pulling the mask over his face once more, he steps forward again and slides down a pile of debris. Now, standing almost face to face is a crowd of the creatures known as "Acids", the product of the Acid Plague. He readies his shotgun, irked by the screaming of one in the distance. With one shot, the crowd is scattered by it's bullets. He takes a run for it.
Sprinting towards the right to a building, he leaps up, over an abandoned car and over another small crowd of acids. As he reaches the door, something catches his attention. He turns around swiftly.
"Wh... What did you say?" He says, muffled by the gas mask.
An acid in the front of the group holds his arms up weakly and cries out in pain. The cry sounds like "ARYA!" to his ears.
Arya takes off his mask to get a look, tears leaking from his eyes down his reddened cheeks. He throws the mask down on the ground roughly and screams back. "WHAT THE ******** DO YOU WANT WITH ME?!"
Soon, the entire crowd is calling for him. He falls to his knees and covers his ears, "Dammit, why?! Why, why..." His shotgun falls to the ground with the mask but a steel pipe sits firmly in his grasp, trembling with his cold hands. He stands up and screams in anger as the first acid is taken down by his pipe. The crowd stops calling, but continues the slowly progressing onslaught.
Arya's eyes, a blazing amber close for a moment before he spirals down into a blind rage and loses it.
...
Awakening from his state, he looks around. Bodies, maybe fifty of them, all laying on the ground, headless, dead. He looks at himself, his clothes burned and torn by the acid. His arms covered in welts from where the acid had touched. The sing of the acid still lingers, but by now, he was used to it.
Standing up slowly, he walks over to his mask and picks it up with his shotgun. Holstering the gun and strapping the mask to his belt, he looks once more over to the crowd before deciding to go into the building. At the last moment, something catches his eye, another human, running across the way.
He starts running towards them, "Hey! Heeeeeey!" ((This is where some interaction should start, hinthint. Someone meet me!))

Character Name: (Full name, alias, and nickname)Yauchi de la Rosa. Gender and Sexuality:Female. ASEXUAL!

Born in Nairobi, Kenya Appearance: (Include wardrobe and outer appearance, also weapons of choice if you'd like.)http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v229/Dumb-Arse/Yauchi.png Attitude:An elitist b***h, who takes no prisoners. And she's also a bit perverted. WHICH CONFLICTS WITH HER ASEXUALITY! Strengths and Weaknesses: (For weaknesses, don't say none, everyone has a weakness, whether it be physical or mental.)One of her weakness is her slim build, as she has very little strength. Her strength is her agility, more in running than anything. As she used to be in her track team back in Kenya. (Lol, stereotyping them. D; BUT I LOVE THEM! x3)
Uhh, approved!
Just telling you, if you start being stupid, I will delete your posts. Don't let me down!

 While roaming around the town searching for food and civilization Yauchi spots another human being, yelling at her. She looks at him and squints her eyes to get a clearer view. "Hello?!" She says very confused. "Why are you here in the middle of nowhere...?"
