GATHERING NECESSITIES
A group of survivors this size needs a lot of food and supplies to... survive. There are any number of places you can scavenge for necessities around the apartment complex during daylight hours if you're by yourself, but to find supplies at night, you're going to need a group. No matter what time you head out, be careful, and remember your umbrella.

Quote:
During the day, your character may search any apartments in the Clearview complex that have been abandoned, nearby bodegas and houses, cars, supermarkets, et cetera, by themselves. At night, they must search in a group, unless they are deliberately disobeying the apartment rules. If they are, they might very well get away with it. Or there might be consequences.

Step One - Grab a Bag
Zelda and October have amassed a decent supply of cloth bags, perfect for holding on to the things you find around the city when being quiet is a priority. Some of them are kind of small, but all of them are more convenient than making do with your arms.

To grab a bag, roll 1d4 and RP stopping by the main office to take one. If you want to skip this step, you will only be able to carry 1 item.


  1. Your bag carries 2 items!
  2. Your bag carries 4 items!
  3. Your bag carries 2 items!
  4. Your bag carries 3 items!

Step Two - Fill That Bag
If you are completing this quest by yourself, you may roll multiple 10-sided dice in each of your posts until you have filled your current bag. If you are completing it with others, roll 1d10 per post.

Please note that you may not ICly keep these items! Whether your character gives them up because they're nice or the security team beats them up daily and takes the items, they will not be translated into personal loot and are only for RP flavor.


  1. You find a dented tin of sardines submerged in a shallow puddle. Mmm.
  2. You find an unopened bottle of water.
    ZELDA APPROVES
    Upon your return to Clearview, you will be awarded one cocktail umbrella! Please claim it in this thread using the faction quest point claim form located
    here.

  3. You find some new, drab clothing, perfect for camouflaging against the horde.
    ZELDA APPROVES
    Upon your return to Clearview, you will be awarded one cocktail umbrella! Please claim it in this thread using the faction quest point claim form located
    here.

  4. You find a very small bottle of water, probably one of those ones they give people on planes.
  5. You find a hefty stick. Maybe someone can use it to hold open a door or something.
  6. You find a can of Beefaroni.
    ZELDA APPROVES
    Upon your return to Clearview, you will be awarded one cocktail umbrella! Please claim it in this thread using the faction quest point claim form located
    here.

  7. You find a bikini.
  8. You find a couple of fruit punch juice boxes. They're nearly mangled, but they are drinkable.
  9. You find five Aero bars!
    ZELDA APPROVES
    Upon your return to Clearview, you will be awarded one cocktail umbrella! Please claim it in this thread using the faction quest point claim form located
    here.

  10. You find a half used package of batteries.
    ZELDA APPROVES
    Upon your return to Clearview, you will be awarded one cocktail umbrella! Please claim it in this thread using the faction quest point claim form located
    here.

"Hey guys," a sandy-haired woman greeted as she walked through the door, a relatively pleasant smile on her face, considering. She wasn't in the highest of spirits, but Mel thought it was always good to be polite. Perhaps with the exception of when she was in a kill-all-humans mood, Mel always tried to be polite to anyone and everyone. Part of her "charm," as her grandmother used to say.

Others said she always had a mask on while others also said it was a little...fake. Not that she cared; in fact, she actually appreciated the honesty, though she also told those people to ******** off. Politely, of course.

Today was no different for her as she pulled on that smile and wandered into the office to grab a bag for the day's scavenging. It was routine by now and once she got her bag she just zipped right on out of the office to go do what she considered was her job. All of theirs jobs, really, but all the tasks that had to be done at Clearview were split evenly among them all. They all pitched in, so it wasn't her business which area someone decided to spend their time helping out in, so long as they pulled their weight.

She pulled a smile on for the guards as well before ducking out of the building to go find all the things. All the things.

Today Mel went straight for a building she ransacked once before, only this time she went up a couple floors higher to try her scavenging luck.

The 8th floor of said building was still office space, though the desks were still in their proper places, arranged neatly all across the room, in pairs and back-to-back. There was scattered paperwork everywhere, though even in the middle of an apocalypse one has to wonder why there was paperwork everywhere. It may have been from people basically dropping whatever they were holding to rush out into the open where all the infected basically were, which was definitely a possibility because of all the chaos and confusion that took place on Day Zero. Or maybe someone just had a whole lot of fun setting the stage for an office in disarray because of a madness that had set in. Or maybe it was something else entirely...

There was no real way to know, but as she stepped over the scattered paper it made a sort of rustling noise that was anything but soothing to her at that point. It made it seem like there was someone else there with her, either following her or watching her.

"Great," she muttered at the thought before starting her search.

The office was arranged in such a way that made it efficient to walk around and in-between all the desks, so her search was quick and easy. She passed by each pair of tables and rifled through the cabinets, managing to find some mangled juice boxes in one--she bagged them since they were only externally messed up, but the contents were intact--in one desk, while another had a set of batteries sitting inside another. She shuffled around for a good while after, a bit discouraged that she hadn't found more before she finally decided to call it a day.

[ Count: 2/2 -- batteries, mangled juice boxes ]
