I'm relatively knew to Gateway, but hardly new to writing and role playing. My name is Jeff and I am an addict. </end chorus; hi jeff>
I'm sure a lot of you reading this are like -- awwgawd, ANOTHER Zombie RP? Or Zombie Survival? Etc? But I want to change that mentality right here and now. Bringing new things to the table, and new types of zombies, making this something similar to a Left 4 Dead meets a Hack 'n Slash where those who love to fight and gore shit will get their chance, while those who LOVE to write, will get the chance to write with some epic players and people, all while trying to survive whatever I throw at you.
Name of the Game: Zombie Apocalypse Survival
Type of Game: GM/DM run, Maps Provided.
I want to run this like a Dungeons and Dragons plot, minus the die rolls because they're a headache to keep track of for a lot of people and the integrity/trust issue follows in with who rolled what and was it edited. Seen it too many times, we're not face to face, don't worry about the dice. I want this in a room by room fashion. I want to set a time frame for when something disastrous is going to occur and you need to get the HELL IN AND OUT without dying and getting stuck.
How this will run: This might be better said, how I would LIKE TO see it run. Everyone makes ONE character. First person or third, you will para-only, write out your character with a melee weapon and some form of distance weapon. We're going to make this bad-boy a hack 'n slash, so we're taking out the absolute necessity of counting muntions or whatever, but if you over-use it, I will call expended and you'll have no distance shots left, unless you find some from random dead adventurers before you... or kill your buddy and take his shit.
+ Each player will receive bonuses for all whom escape as well. Best to keep your friends alive.
+ Everything will be run in chapters. I have plenty of maps, and there's a whole world out there, so if I run out -- I'll start mean-mugging Google Earth. Mwuhaha!
+ Each chapter will have a baby-synopsis of what's going on and why. It might make sense, or it might be a total LOL -- either way, you're going to need something in here and you're in a Zombie Apocalypse ... where else do you have to be right now? You're an adventurer. Bam.
+ Upgrades will be had, requests may be made. Etc, etc...
I wont be playing a character specifically, because I'll be playing Specials and mass quantities of undead mobs, waiting for their heads to be hollowed! <3
Whatcha' think?
Interested?
