zombie roleplay (unnamed)?

a topic in Interest Checks, a part of the RPG forum.

Thinking about starting a roleplay, but don't have the idea completely finished? Post it here, not in the main OOC forum!

zombie roleplay (unnamed)?

Tips: 0.00 INK Postby cool4345 on Sun Sep 26, 2010 4:16 pm

Well i was going to post on here much earlier when i signed up.. and then i forgot.
I know i should introduce myself first, but my memory sucks and i'll probably forget to post this if i did it first, and i'd like to get this posted pretty quick, since i'm in my last year of school and such.

So would anybody be interested in a realistic style zombie roleplay? think resident evil outbreak, with a limited number of slots (4 or so), weapons which have (very) limited ammo, makeshift weapons i.e iron pipes, molotov cocktails, whatever you can pick up..

Mostly normal slow zombies would be in it, but think about more or less anything that could mutate and try and kill humans.. But you'd probably see many zombies with loss of limbs, fast zombies (occasionally, they'd be more mutated than normal zombies), possibly even zombies on fire (although they'd die out in seconds, being on fire and all).

Realistic-ish health system, if you get scratched/bit by a zombie, you'll become infected.. If you don't do anything about your infection, you die.

If you get hit, then your health status becomes "hurt", if hit again, "Caution", and again, "Wounded", and finally "danger". Your in-game character would be noticeably different on each stage of health, such as on danger you'd be staggering around, not be able to run, and be very vulnerable. I might change the different stages of health yet too, i'm not sure.

If anybody's interested in this, then i'll explain it more if anyone wants me to.
Oh, and i need a name for this. Any suggestions? :P

It sounds interesting I might join.
I'd like it if you explained it more.
Umm a name...The Outbreak...I don't know...
I'll try to think of something better when I hear more or something..

Okay. What needs explaining?

I think i forgot to mention some things that are obvious though. Everyone is in a town, which is a modern every-day town, with normal locations, mainly houses obviously, a sewer, town centre, gun store, zoo, random stores, and maybe some abandoned, ruined buildings or something. Possibly a school/gym or something, too.


Every character can have one starting item (but it can't be anything too good, not as good as a machine gun, shotgun etc), and a special ability (obviously has restrictions too, you can't be resistant to everything for example). This is up to you, however like i said, be fair. Fair, but imaginative.

I would be very interested! Zombie RPs are my absolute favorite! XD
A successful novel should interrupt the reader’s life, make him or her miss appointments, skip meals, forget to walk the dog. - Stephen King

The same should apply for an RP.

I didn't describe this as well as i thought i had. Missing even more points, which i'll now point out..

You can choose where you start out, and it's also optional if you even want to join up with anyone.. You could make it so your character manages to avoid everyone for the whole time, although it definately wouldn't help, larger numbers= easier to deal with undead.

Also, when hurt, you can heal yourself. I'm not sure if i should use herbs like characters in the resident evil series do, first aid sprays, or normal medic kits. I think i might use the latter two, though.

In a (currently un-named) pretty average everyday town. Modern technology, but maybe with older style weapons, prototype weapons, whatever you find.

from the first post:

"Mostly normal slow zombies would be in it, but think about more or less anything that could mutate and try and kill humans.. But you'd probably see many zombies with loss of limbs, fast zombies (occasionally, they'd be more mutated than normal zombies), possibly even zombies on fire (although they'd die out in seconds, being on fire and all)."

You might want to use a thread for the IC because with the tabs once you pass the first page you cannot see post before that page...
