Introduction
The origin is unknown. Perhaps scientist tried to play with life and death or immortality, manipulate matters they shouldn't have dared to touch. Perhaps it was airborne. Maybe some darker force has put the end of the world near.
The infection is transmitted when a person or other living being is bitten by the infected. Their blood is not considered contagious, their saliva is. When contaminated a subject typically takes 12 -24 hours to change. The first few hours after being infected, the body experiences nausea, headaches, joint pain or stiffness, and an increased heart rate. [This stage makes it hard to distinguish other illnesses or if victim has been bitten.] The second stage entails a short fever that burns higher than usual. Few hours after the fever, cardiac arrest takes place, trauma to the brain occurs then blood flow, temperature and breathing plummet to almost nothing. The subject may be pronounced dead but in approximately an hour that follows, they awaken in a state of primitive savagery.
The virus beings do not sleep, and they do not tire. No matter the state of the body, they continue on with missing limbs and body parts. They do not feel pain. The only way to kill them is severe damage to the brain stem.
Classes
1.Zombies/Walkers: The normal walkers are considered slow, dumb and undead, but are large in quantity and never alone.
2. Screechers: Are far more attuned to their senses, especially smell and sound. Will emit a shriek giving away your location to other infected.
3. Simiae [sim-yie] / Prims: Able to run, climb and are agile. Runs and pursues on fours to become faster. Animals often take this form.
4. :
5. Unencountered.
Cheyenne State Capitol: The zombie hot spot rarely has a dull day. Fortunately, the most defensive camp has a weapons cache and has a high vantage point to defend the fortress. Though, food and water are in short supply.

β£ Executing the brain kills the virus host.
β£ Reserve in OOC/Discussion. Up to three roles at this time available per RPer. Provide your Faceclaim, Role and Camp, Hex, Character Name and if you're feeling super nice, a 225x225 image of them xD. If you want to play a child just skip the role part.
β£ Don't be afraid to idea generate. I've got a few rough plans that should tilt the characters worlds, but I'm going to need more.
β£ The camps may have other cons than what is listed. You can get creative with it. Drama makes the RP go around after all.
β£ Wanna have a long lost sibling residing in another camp? Cool. Wanna kill all your healers? Awesome! Honestly, have fun with this. There are so many ways to keep the tension rolling. I would advise communicating little plot twists with your camp or group / characters relevant.
β£ Many roles will turn available for NPC. That's fine. If you wanna create some drama and tension with that, I encourage you. Common civilians, travelers, the organisation officials are also NPC and can be jerks.
β£ And just to make sure youβre up to speed, what are your chances of surviving a zombie apocalypse? Answer in the discussion with percentage.
β£ Character sheets are yours to make and beautify.

The Story So Far... Write a Post » as written by 1 authors

It didn't happen much as anybody could understand, but there was the rarest occasion. A birth among the apocalypse. New life. It unsettled everybody for varying reasons and because it had become so unique and scarcely known, it seemed to turn the capitol on its head like it was foreign alien source that was a greater threat than zombies themselves. But love was love and Thornton wouldn't come between that. Nobody addressed the matter beforehand and so he intended to treat it as normal as possible.
There were many complaints and expectations, both silent and unspoken following Thornton with their eyes, and those opinions clearly voiced, to do something more than accept the child into the colony. The population were expecting death, experimentation or exile. More like hoping but they were not options. They had merely lost sight of humanity and the circle of life since the wide spread infection. He couldn't blame them for that, having to rewire their minds to adjust to the new world.
They were all pretty unaccustomed to treating children around the stronghold but even Thornton detected it was harsh yet essential.
Best to train him young and let him know what he was in for so he had more chance of defending himself in the near future. There was no sugar coating the reality and on basis of respect, they all deserved the truth. His responsibility was helping others at the best chance of life.
There had only ever been one instance when the colony strongly opposed and fought Graham on a decision. After a birth among the colony. Nobody thought it'd happen but it did and despite some sceptism it wasn't a mutant child, just a very human in tact baby.
Graham had to address the new topic publicly before it became an issue though that was already a mind set for some individuals. "Conceiving a child is not against our laws. It's human nature and the circle of life and we need to maintain what we have that's human and natural," he announced resulting in a wave of objections and heckling.
Original colonists were worried about infection and radiation affecting it's much weaker and suspcetible immune system and adding to the hoard's numbers. They worried it was another mouth to struggle to feed and supply for and it would take priority over their fickle lives.
This never became the case.

The Valis and Mason feud is a well known and openly expressed feud.
"Stay out of it, man."
They hold no personal issues towards each other or any type of bond. It's clear they distrust one another but it's no reason for hate to be involved... Until they keep intervening in each other's close circles that one of them reach snapping point and it will happen.
"I'm not falling for it, hon."
"I think I intimidate her. Or she knows better. Cute."
Mason gets that he doesn't smile enough and isn't particularly approachable or charming most days but this girl keeps her distance avoiding him like the plague. She's all hands on deck and helpful to most other people but ducks him when she can. But he knows she has more layers than a pretentious queen just like he has more than a cold-hearted ass. In fact, he is rather intrigued by her.
Wes is all fluff and show anyway, even then, a fool.

"You know he wouldn't have this 'stress' on his shoulder if he didn't self appoint himself as leader."
"You don't wanna hear what I have to say about her."
The Valis and Mason feud is a well known and openly expressed feud.
"Thank god she was stupid and brave enough to try take on that minotaur."
Mason hopes that wherever he is, he's in a better place. The guy deserves to keep playing his pranks and have fun wherever he is.
"If I had his brains and muscles, I wouldn't waste it."

Normally she can take the criticism, other times, not so much. And for that reason and her adventurous nature, Duke can be unsure how to feel about her. It always seems like a bad time to delve into something with her.
Duke wouldn't try change her, but he doesn't want half the camp in the med hut for smoking near her either.

He didn't know how much he enjoyed his status on a pedestal until the cops regarded him as a suspect ripped that tore it apart. He always knew there was more to life than popularity and trend setting but being accused of murder really took the rug from under him and insulted his pride and work. There are few in the school that think they can get away with murder and he is one....
