The world use to be filled with life of many races living together. Magic was the way of comfort, before the first terror came to be. People recently dying began to return from the grave as mindless monsters. Slowly the madness spread throughout the world. These Zombies present themselves as the most deadly force their is, never feeling pain and has magical powers to use against the living.
While Most races believe this is a way that the world is rebuilding the natural order from scratch, a new faction has risen from the rotting madness. The New Dawn; a special faction of Undead who has gained enough sanity to stop the hunger of flesh. While the remaining living still consider the New Dawn to still be dangerous they accept their help but keep them to a disadvantage so they may be easily killed all the same.
What Makes the Rising Dawn different physically from the Hive is their clothing is more clean, Eyes Glow yellow instead of red, And are commonly seen holding weapons while the Hive don't.
((Recommended to read for better understanding the undead here))
Undead Diet/Psychology: The undead hunger for the living is a psychological addiction that keeps the mind from thinking for itself thus making the Undead mindless. After a long period of starvation can their addiction fade and give the undead their lives. Even in death they can remember their past but never completely due to the body being dead thus killing some brain cells.
The undeath can effect the living but they cannot turn until they die. So the living can live long lives while carrying the curse and then become undead. Undeath takes from three hours to a week to become from dead to undead. Vampires however are nearly instant and retain all their memories and must drink blood but not mindlessly addicted to their need.
The first of the Undead has formed the Hive to organize his mindless brethren. The Hive have been considering of "Breeding" the living like livestock for them. While to mad by addiction to use weapons the New Dawn have no restrictions but are commonly seen as enemies to the living and the Hive.
Undead Health/Senses: The undead cannot be poisoned or be effected by diseases since they aren't alive. While they can maintain their senses so long as their organs for that function is still there. (Like Tongue for tasting) The undead can feel the temperature and thus rather reside in warm climates. This does nothing for them but the weather can harm them if they freeze or burn. The Undeads sense of Touch is more rough and rubbery. Some Undead have Life Senses which makes the living glow a weak light if nearby a undead with Life Senses. Living can avoid this by breathing slowly or holding their breath. Eating normal food has no positive or negative effects. Undead don't breath. Certain undead are born through rituals the living perform so they rise not as Zombies but other undead.
While Eating maybe a psychological thing for the Mindless it also helps them regenerate. While they don't eat they cannot heal wounds that can possibly end their unlife. By Destroying the brain they will die but decapitation only makes them helpless. (Makes the body useless but the head lives, being able to bite and talk but that's it.). Holy Magic also does serious Damage to the undead body and heals the living. Holy magic brings life and ends Undeath to either make them alive again or dead for good. (The Light....it burns!!) The New Dawn mainly refuse to eat out of fear of relapsing. They often return to bases and stitch their wounds or replacement parts. (Oh Wow this arm is perfect!)
Rules:
1) No infecting the living without their permission, same as killing a player or controlling another players character.
2) No godmodding
3) Pg 13 please
4) Romance is allowed but keep it rated above
5) Best of luck ^^

Name: Thomas "Dead Hand" Edwin Race: Rising Dawn Zombie Age: 76 (died in twenties) Powers: Able to eat undead without relapsing, Skilled Blacksmith Armor/Weapons: Damaged Plate armor and claws, carries a smith hammer and a Pata dagger Bio: Dead Hand was at one point a paladin of a holy order of justice. He was the first defenses against the Hive and was slaughtered in the process. After years and years of being a mindless monster he eventually was lost for years and gained his sanity. He now works with the New Dawn to try and stop the Hive. Due to his hideous kind he lost the power of the light, but still fights for what is believed to be justice. Appearance: ((Only his face looks like a normal living man and long black hair.)) Undead((I'll start the RP so others can join in and such.)) It was morning now in one of the Living camps as Dead Hand emerged from his tent and sighed sadly. The living would from time to time glare at him hatefully hoping he makes a mistake. Dead Hand just brushed his hair briefly as he began to patrol around the camp. The living creatures of the camp site had stone walls surrounding the camp to keep the Hive at bay should they find the camp and weapons ready for any fights, especially with the New Dawn members. Dead Hand would patrol around the camp to see if anyone needed help with anything. Special baths were made to keep the New Dawn from smelling like what they are.

Ari had been running for 2 hours, he was scared to the point where he could die of fear because he had encountered a large group of zombies and they nearly got him, he was only saved because a tree had fallen on the zombies about to get him, and created a long barrier between him and the other zombies, giving him enough time to run away. After looking all around him, making sure there were no more threats, he sat down and caught his breath for 10mintues, then he continued walking after spotting what looked like a human flag hanging high over stone walls.

Dead Hand noticed a living person at the distance as he hooded himself and ran out making his way to Ari's spot looking like a normal human being. his walking had what seemed to be a back problem making him slouch alot.

Ari saw the figure approaching, after his engagement with the Zombies he was cautious and a little scared of everything, but Ari was tired from all the running, so tired that, his vision was a little blurred, at this point he didn't care anymore, if the figure approaching is a friend, then I'll live but if it's a foe I'll die, I just am too tired to keep going without food, sleep, or a drinkthought Ari to himself

Dead Hand made his way to him. He wasn't charging at him like the mindless undead would. He stared him down for a moment looking for any bites. After looking he opened a bag that had some soft bread and cold water as he offered it to him.
"Here you go....There's a camp where I came from where you could be safe..." THe hooded man said. his voice was abit rough and cold.

with his last bits of energy before falling asleep Ari looked at the figure standing over him, and realized this was no foe, he would live. He gratefully took the bread and water and then fell into a deep sleep

He sighed as he tried to carry him back to the living base. The Brain would restrain the bodies full strength so the muscles don't get damaged but as undead, this restraint is gone with the only drawback of making their reflexes slown down. He took Ari to the base as he rested him onto his bed in his room. He walked to a desk as he removed the robe and began sewing something together.

After what he thought must have been a few hours Ari woke up, he was calm, relaxed, and well rested, he got up and looked around, he realized he was in a tent, and sitting at a desk not to far from him was he also realized that that was the figure who had given him the bread and water, but he was a little frightened because aside from his head, and facial features, he looked almost like a zombie, but not quite... it was hard to explain. Ari asked in a low frightened voice, "s-s-sir.... where am I and who are you?"

"Your in the tent of a member of the new Dawn. In living territory and I'm the guy who saved you. My real name is worthless so everyone refers to me as Dead Hand. I can only guess you get it." He turned to face him his skeletal elbows were exposed.
"They were waiting for you to sleep before they would get their food."

"The Zombies?""I thought I had lost them in the woods a long time ago..., so they will be here soon!""What am I going to do they will come straight for me, with nothing to protect me, but you..., I need to run and find a military base"said Ari, forgetting completely that he was in a military base,he started to get up and headed to the opening in the tent.

Dead Hand grabs his shoulder to try and stop him. "Stop that already, and we prefer the term Undead." He said blankly as he slowly let go. His claws tracing him pulling his hand back. He explained where he was. Outside the tent had a smithy spot. He was one of the only New Dawn members of the entire base.

Ari, winching at the pain caused by Dead Hand grabbing, him looked at Dead Hand confused, and said"What do you mean you prefer the term undead?""I wasn't calling you a zombie, I was calling the thing's that were chasing me zombies."Although he didn't say anything about it, by the look of him, Ari was a lot more relaxed after Dead Hand explained that they were in a military camp.

"I and those Zombies are mostly the same. THe only differences is that I eventually managed to stop my hunger." He explained sighing. "They can be like me but it is a very long process. I'm one of the only New Dawn members on this camp. I'm the smith of the camp."
