This is where we will be having character discussion later on, character progress, growth, and development; character's relationship with others will be discussed here as well.

I accepted your character not too long ago, I wanted to wait and see the characters submitted by those that showed interest in the OOC section previously. I was waiting to see what other characters we have before I started some of the roleplaying. I wanted to do a one on one with most characters to get everyone into a group. If you're eager to start, I can go ahead and start with you. I just need to know some character information and I can get you started.

I need to know where you are now and what you are in the middle of doing before large news reports started happening. I want to roleplay up through the emergence of The Flu and where your character will go. When others log on, I can start having them go about there way, slowly but surely getting everyone into a group. It might take a little bit, but it should be more natural and I'll introduce you to a combat.

Oh no no rush I was just wondering where (once the RP starts) you'd want my character if there was any specifics. If we're going to run up before the flu actually releases then the RP itself should handle character positioning.

I want something that flows naturally -- I'll attempt to get everyone into a group without going "Tada! You're all in a group. I'm not sure how, but congratulations! :D". I've been planning on doing some individual RPs with those who may be starting somewhere else. I'd like to know where everyone is planning on starting, seeing as we all have pretty diverse backgrounds.

Was your character on a military base? Or perhaps he has an apartment off base, like one of the other characters? Were you planning on attempting to get to your base? Or is your first priority to help survivors?

His apartment is off base (was supposed to be close to the college he was going to attend but didn't). His main priority was meeting up with the rest of his squad (my plan was to have them all dead/zombified) who were supposed to be finishing up some training on the base so he's heading towards the base picking stuff up along the way but can also go somewhere else if he deems it important enough.

Fair enough. Did you have a location in mind or would you like me to choose? Was he planning on attending at Colorado State University or another school (I have it based in Colorado)? I know the Colorado state CDC is in Fort Collins (same place as CSU), it is possible that there is a military base in the same area. This would definitely quicken the time we can get the group together, but I have no problem with doing a longer one on one RP if you have another place in mind.

Nope. That sounds fine to me. I actually hadn't thought about places to use in Colorado so whatever works best for the story I can make work for Mike

Okay! I set up a location in which we will host the one on one roleplay to get Mike into a larger group. Unfortunately, we won't be able to make large amounts of progress until I know other survivor's locations. Hopefully we will get started soon!

That's what I was planning with Frank, actually. I assume that once Rachel and Alexis go running off somewhere, we'll all end up running into you and then running into someone else, etc. etc. until we're all together. Then it's what do we want to do now?

I'm starting the work on the maps now, as an FYI, and they'll be done soon. Then I can post them and we can start keeping track of the progress of the characters and we'll have a visual map of where we are and where we can go. :D

Hey, I just submitted in a character that was heading towards Colorado State University, can Elvis Valentino run into you there and somehow team up with you on your adventure. I mean, I can always change it around and morph it, but I'm new to the site and rather be with someone in the start. But I'm willing to go with the flow and make neccesary changes, or we can always go with the Frank idea and, "Spot a skinny guy with nice hair on a broken down motorcycle," or what not. (By the way, I don't even know if I'm accepted or not, so I don't even know if I should post this, I'm such a "n00b" at this ): )

Hey, I've been waiting on two others who reserved spots to submit a character before I accept anyone else. Then I'm going to take a look at the amount work and see if it is okay to add another character, so I'm not sure at this point.

Yes, I have read the "Outsiders," before, but not recently (almost 1 in a half years ago.) Also, thanks for the Pm, I followed your suggestions. Strawberry, If you decide to open up another character spot just give me a shout.

Hola everyone, I just read the post stating there is another spot on hold, I assume this is meant for me (though it may be wishful thinking,) in the it's mine I would be happy to meet up with Frank, Daniel, or even start out at the University as Elvis is looking for his sister, Kelly, there. In anycase I'd be happy to start out anywhere as Elvis has a flexible History. By the way, Elvis is riding on a motorcycle so we can say it broke down due to etc., and another character finds him and they meet up.

The spot on hold right now is for TheScarletPlague, whom I spoke with earlier this week. Those of us currently attending some version of school understands the problem of homework and how it can keep you busy. :)

After TheScarletPlague, the next position would be for Elvis the King and then Kiina.

I have to decide exactly how large this RP will be and how I'm managing the groups (i.e. splitting you all up for some reason -- which would be exciting and you all know it). If this all starts coming to fruition, I will be able to add more spots to the RP.
