You live in the town of Clifton, NJ. You wake up at 6:53AM, and get home at 2:26PM, on Tuesday. As you get home, you turn on the news. They explain that there is a Great Hurricane coming to your home. The East Coast. The United States. This Hurricane was scheduled to come to Clifton by Friday, by 11:00AM. They say it goes up to 200MPH, the most powerful Hurricane. Way more powerful than Haiyan. You then turn off the TV and decide to head to the evacuation route *with parents if your young*, but it is too late. You wake up on Friday morning at 7:01AM, and they say school is cancelled due to the Great Hurricane. You then decide to stay in the closet, and that decision was made at 10:46AM. You decide to evacuate right now, but it is too late.
When you get out of the closet, part of the room is destroyed, and your parents are gone. The winds are whipping as hard as multiple pillows are whacking you. You decide to head to the 1st floor quick and fast by using the stairs, because the elevators were out of order. You then head down to the lobby, and there you find other huddled survivors. They say, "The predator is the Hurricane, the prey is us,". But others say that we can survive as long as we stay safe but you can agree with one. As you take a look outside the whipping pillows *Metaphor*, You then see bunch of cars flipped over and a giant wave coming from the nearby bay. You scream, "WAVE!", but they weren't listening, except you. You then hurry up the stairs as the wave washes away the survivors. -- STARTING POINTS:
Store - This store is basically an island right now, because the buildings surrounded were washed away. There are a lot of food and water resources, but have a high risk of chance of being washed away into the bay.
Elementary School - This Elementary School is partially destroyed, but you can survive long in there. There are no food and water resources here, but you can survive pretty well here.
Middle School and High School *connected* - This also has a pretty high risk of being washed away, but there are some food and water resources from the Cafeteria, even though the halls are confused. The water can wash into the hall any minute or second.
Apartment Building/Condos - This is one of the main starting points, and there are no food and water resources here, and has a high risk of being washed away. Only experts who survive the hurricane can go here. If your not an expert, do you dare to go here?
Suburb/House - This may be your house in the suburbs of Clifton, but most of the houses have risk of washing away easily, even though they aren't near the bay, they're near a big lake, one of the biggest.
Metropolitan Building - These are where the working survivors are. This building never got destroyed, but rarely any food and water resources here.
Stuck in a Car - You are stuck in a car. I decide if its in a traffic jam or not, but I can also decide if its near the bay or not. You may have food and water resources if I say.
Near the Bay - You have an easy risk of washing away into the bay. Thats all. -- Rules: 1. Do not sound OP'd. 2. You can get out as long as its safe outside. 3. Romance is a risk of yours, not mine. 4. Put The Great Hurricane in other. 5. No crazy items. 6. "It isn't in the rules!" will not be an excuse. 7. Please, try your best with grammar. 8. Be realistic and try to be descriptive atleast. -- Character Sheet:

Charlie ----------
Charlie walked to second period. She entered, and took her seat. As she opened her notebook, the hurricane alarm went off. Everyone rushed to shelter. "STAY CALM! SINGLE FILE! HURRY, BUT DON'T RUN!" The teacher yelled over screams. Of course, no one listened. All Charlie could see was the back of heads. Once they got themselves covered by desks, the alarm went off. "Stay." The teacher announced. "It's probably just a false alarm..." Charlie whispered, very unsure. Just as she started to crawl out, the alarm blared again, the fear making Charlie stagger back under the desk. |

Charlie --------
Charlie tucked her head between her knees, covering herself with her hands as told. Her eyes widened as she could hear the muffled sound of windows breaking and classmates screaming.

| Hearing the same alarm in her school, Alexis looked outside of the window in her 5th grade classroom. She saw the huge waves, and debris flying everywhere. "ALEXIS, DO YOU HEAR ME? COME ON!" Her teacher screamed, dragging her out of the classroom by her hand. She urged Alexis down into the school basement and into a bathroom. She was crowded into a stall with 5 other kids. One of them was crying, with their arms around their knees. Alexis held back the tears and crouched next to the toilet with her eyes closed. |

Charlie --------
The teacher ushered us to the school storage, which was underground. They hid under tables, some crying and screaming. Charlie bit her lip. She reached for her phone and punched in her mother's number. She picked up. "Charlie, honey, are you alright!?" She yelled. "I'm fine mom, the sirens went of about 10 minutes ago. We're in the storage room." Her mother screamed, and the line went dead.
Her father's phone was destroyed when a little cousin accidentally dropped it in the toilet. They hadn't gotten him a new one yet.
Charlie was now alone. |

| (Can she be Alexis's teacher?) The principle ran down into the basement. "EVERYONE EVACUATE! A LARGE WAVE IS COMING THIS WAY!" The room roared with screams. There was no order as kids ran out and up the stairs. Alexis tried to make her way through the crowd, but it was packed. People pushed and shoved. When she finally got up he stairs, she saw the wave. It was huge. She screamed and ran down the hall with the other kids. Then she stopped and thought. High ground. She needed high ground. She ran into the nearest classroom and climbed onto the teacher's desk. |

Hurricane --
The strong winds close and locks the door just as Alexis gets in. The wind causes part of the shelter in the ground to be teared up. A bunch of cars hurdle towards there, each on the ripped side. |

Alexis shudders in fear as a trickle of water comes out the crack under the door. More and more comes until there is an inch of water in the classroom. In no time, the water rises another 3 inches. Kindergarten toys float around the desk she stands on. A gust of wind blasts through the broken windows and knocks her down into the rising water. Surprised, she scrambles back up onto the desk and screams for help. "Somebody help me!" She cries, trying to see out the window in the classroom door. "Please! Is anyone there? Help!"

(Joining because I've never seen a water-based survival not involving a plane crash. Good work!)
Character Sheet:
Name: Eoli Iridium (Pronounced E-lie ear-id-eum)
Age: 24
Appearance: Eoli is a short, ugly fellow. He's a bit on the chubby side, and has a big roud head, adorned with freckle. His eyes are big and round, and possess the colour of the sky. His hair is short, and falls down halfway down his forehead, and is a mahogany colour. His ears are oversized and red, a contrast to his overall pale complexion. He has a large nose and a small mouth, and he has clear braces. His attire consists of a colared shirt with a small logo on the left, stating "Best Buy". He wears khaki pants and grey sneakers.
Physical Appearance: [if you don't know what I mean, it means like weight and height and eye color, etc.] (This is the exact same thing as I just wrote out.)
Personality: Eoli is very reclusive. Shy, quiet, insecure, he took the least social job he could find-attaching security systems to the electronics at work. He's a friendly person, though he can be quite aggravative and grumpy if you don't know him, or if he's ina tight situation. He doesn't handle having to lead well, and prefers being alone.
Starting Point: Trapped in his vehicle, an old 1990's Mercedes with chipping red paint and a cracked back window.
Items: [NO WEAPONS] His cell phone, earbuds, and a package of sun chips that were in the car.
Biography: Eoli was born in Calgary, Canada, to a single mother. He was an only child, and had trouble getting along. He is naturally overweight, and he was made fun of for this. When he was 13, he entered a deep depression that he didn't overcome until he moved to New Jersey. He talks little about his past life, and tries to live the present as it comes. He moved to Clifton when he was 20, after his mother died. He moved in with an old high scool firend of his, who has also since passed away. Eoli now lives in a small house in a bad area of town, just trying to get by.
