[HandsomeBenders]

All righty, that might come in tomorrow, since I still have to walk my cousins' dogs, and they quite a bit away, but
I can assure you I'll get started on my character today or tonight.

It's no problem, you have plenty of time before the start of the RP. I want around 10 people but ill settle for 5 and we almost have that.

[Kaaaat]

Looks awesome- I think I'll start working on my character tonight!

[ShaShaBoomStar]

I'll be creating a character! She'll be that person who's useless, doesn't care about helping the others unless there's a reward, and is selfish. ^.^

[Bradok187]

Ok, as of now we have 5 people that are supposed to be making characters and joining. Tomorrow I will post a thread in Roleplayers Wanted to see if anyone else wishes to join, but after everyone makes their Characters we wont wait long before we start. I think we will start in about two days to give everyone enough time to edit their CS and let others join. Thanks for joining guys, and I look forward to our roleplay.

Can't wait! :D

This is interesting. Let me ask a question first if you don't mind. Does this have a minimum requirement for the amount of words in a post? Last time I joined one, that three hundred words per post discouraged me to join the role-play. Of course, I understand that you want posts that has actually a lot of words to read, and not just a single sentence of "Hey, I'm in a zombie apocalypse world. Yay." But someone like me (Whose laziness tends to get in the way of plenty of things) tends to think that typing a huge post of more than three hundred a pain or maybe a thorn in the side since both my vocabulary is small and things I want to describe tends to go the opposite than intended. I do know that you and many other role-players does not want someone to ruin the tension by using children's way of describing something (Pew, pew, pew, bang, bang, ching, zing. I know. It's annoying, for me too)

Sorry if it's a long post but I just came back to this site after a couple months's rest from immense typing. And yes, I will join this role-play. Just had to, you know, ask a question before I join to make sure I have planted enough seeds in my character before making it bloom in the role-play.

[PatchworkHeart]

Yes! I love these kind of role-plays, I'll definitely be joining, may I even take two slots? I have an idea.

[Bradok187]

@code6435| No there isn't a post req, just no one liners. I know how it is when you strain yourself to try to stretch out an RP, and frankly sometimes there just isn't enough information to type a long RP. Just use your better judgement lol.

@PatchworkHeart| If you want to make two character than that's cool, but if you are trying to make a relative, friend, or lover of some sort ask around with the others joining. Im sure one of them will be more than happy. Also once RP picks up and we move through a couple of Arcs im planning on introducing a new group of survivors to the plot. At this point in time I don't know how they will effect our original group in terms of meeting/fighting/joing forces, all I know is that we will have a second group at some point. Also im going to alt it to the rules when I edit later, but I am only going to allow two Characters per player. I want our Player Base to be made of of more players than Alts.

I look forward to seeing you both in the RP and I cant wait to see your Chars!

[PatchworkHeart]

Well, I was going to make a girl (Beth) and her father; I'm not really sure anyone would want to play the father (I've just finished Elizabeth's sheet) but if anyone does, sure! Just PM me, if not, I can make him.

[code6435]

@Bradok - Alrighty! I'll work on it once I'm finished with the housework.

[cheater0611]

Hmm, your username seem fairly familiar Bradok. I can't seem to remember where I have seen it before... Anyway, Zombies' are one of my most treasured shooting targets. You can't get a better human stand-in than a zombie. I'll make a character.

Edit: My character is up. If I need to change anything let me know. For anyone who wants to look at my character without having to go through all those pesky steps of clicking on my name and then having to click on my view all characters and then scrolling all the way down to the very one. Here's a LINK to that sheet. Sorry about the severe lack of pics, but I couldn't find one that I liked.

[Bradok187]

First off I wanna thank everyone that has joined and those that are planning on joining later today. I didn't expect so many people to join, but the more the merrier.

For those wishing to join or are planning to I wanted to get something out there. I'm not going to approve many more 20 year olds for this first group. If your character has to be 20 then we can talk about it, but we need variety. I know it's tempting to make a young character, but lets at least try to make some 27-35 year olds if not older.

The most pressing matter will be when and where we start then rp. I think anywhere between 3 months and a couple of years after the outbreak sounds good, but I would like to here all of your thoughts. As far as starting location I was thinking one of the bigger cities in the southern states. I'm leaning towards Florida, Georgia, or Alabama, but I would like to know what you guys think on that as well.

[ShaShaBoomStar]

I was thinking that we could start the first day after the outbreak. You know, so we could really showcase the fear and trauma everyone's been through.

[Bradok187]

I was also thinking about that, but since everyone is from a different city originally we would have to come up with a reason for them being together. I was thinking maybe an Airport.

[Kaaaat]

Well, we could maybe do it like a week or a month after the outbreak, so the shock is still in tact and they have time to meet each other somewhere. This is just a suggestion, though. The airport is a good idea, too! But what airport? I think the ATL Airport in Georgia would be a great idea since it's so big. I'm open to anything.

[ShaShaBoomStar]

Maybe we all end up meeting each other in someway at the airport.
