Explanation -

So, the title may have reeled you back in since it was a successful-ish POST-apocalyptic roleplay. It ended up coming to a halt, but I am in the process of reviving it but I need to time to think up ideas, hence this roleplay which will be coming in as a filler to keep everyone occupied.

So, get ready to step into the shoes of those who survived in the apocalypse and prepare to enter the fray, because your characters will be on Vineyard Intersection, where The Vineyard Society initially took place, at the height of apocalypse, defending for their lives while hordes of infected individuals swarm their position!

Introduction -

Location: Vineyard intersection in a small town somewhere Southwest in North America.

Time: 12:00 A.M, 2028, 24 days after release of BioCH3, 120 hours before plan N&D will be initiated

"We're sick of the running from the damned govies and we'll never shake those fiendish blood-sucking maniacs anyway. The way the rest of us see it is that we're gonna go out with a bang instead of withering away," a man says, his face dimly lit by the light preceding from the fire's glow on a crisp night. Gunshots echoed from far away and not an animal could be heard for miles. This is the way it had been since day zero.

The older gentlemen across from the man who had initially spoken heaved a sigh, raising his arm to cover his eyes from the luminescent glow of the fire as he collected his thoughts. "It would appear so. I guess we've got no other options, since things have already gone as far South as they possibly can. We'll hold out with what little we have, I suppose," the older gentleman finally said, the melancholy obviously present in his words. It pained him as he spoke every word, like small pin picks each time. It would be death by a thousand paper cuts, or that's how he saw it at least.

The other man across from the older gentleman nodded, and just the thought of the stand they were about to take on gave him a deep sense of melancholy as well, but he knew that he'd always rather go out swinging rather than hiding away from an inevitable death. He didn't know what would come by tomorrow, though. All he knew was that he would gather everyone and assess their supplies come morning.

The question still stood though.

What does tomorrow in this Armageddon hold?

Rules -

1. Generic rules apply. (Word is law, no gary stues, no spotlighting, etc.)
2. You don't choose where you hit your enemy or even how much damage you deal. I determine that via dice and your character's skills.
3. Be as literate as possible and try to form bonds with other characters. It makes things more interesting for everyone.
4. Weapons, compared to Vineyard Society, will be more lenient. You can have civilian grade automatic weapons and things of that sort, but no high-tech militaristic weapons please. (Everyone should carry a melee and a firearm.)
5. I usually don't require it, but I would like for your history to be descriptive as it will help me in catering to what skills your character has. (Include things like previous jobs, experiences, and work habits.)
6. If I deny your CS instead of asking you to change a few things, it's final. If you argue on the thread then I will note to never allow you into any future RP I create.
7. If you've any questions ask me them.

Mechanics (Dice Rolls) -

Dice will be based on stats you have and they are divided into four subclasses. (Strength, Dexterity, Intelligence, Charisma.) In each subclass you'll have four other skills which will be linked to certain actions. For example, under Strength you will have these four skills -

Brawling
Climb
Intimidate
Athletics

Now, say you get in a fist fight and your brawling is 9. You would have to roll a 9 or above on a d20 to successfully perform the action. If it is lower, you fail. If it is a 1, you critically fail. If it is a 20, you perform a critical attack.

That's all you guys will need to know. Stats for you guys will be invisible; only I can see them, however I just wanted to give you all an insight on how the dice will work.

Character Sheet -

Name: James "Mitralette" Travey

Age: 27

Gender: M

Appearance: James is a short, stocky guy, who sports a bald head, clean shaven face, and large nose. James has a bulge on his left eyebrow, along with dark, coffee colored eyebrows. Most of the time, James is wearing a long-sleeved, green-plaid flannel, his brown leather belt, and his gray khaki pants. Mitralette also wears a gray beanie from time to time.

Weapons: Brugger & Thomet MP9SF, with a folding stock, rather than a retractable one, which happens to be his namesake, along with a Gerber 06 and a trusty Colt Detective Special, which has plastic grips in place of the wooden ones.

History: Mitralette grew up in southern Canada, near Washington state, in the relatively small town of Osoyoos. In this haven, James had spent a great portion of his time working at a junk yard with his father, where he learned to salvage and tinker. While he was in that small Canadian town, he had also done a bit of hunting with his bow, as Canadian gun laws are 'eh', and he didn't really care for gats all that much at the time. Later in James' life, he had moved to Washington to study abroad, and decided that he might as well stay in Washington for a while, before he went further down, into Texas. Once he got to Texas, he finally took interest in firearms, and did a bit of small collecting here and there, worked at a sawmill for a while, and had a decent life for the majority of his existence. And, of course, his prized item was his Mitralette, the B&T MP9SF, which emptied his wallet and pretty much finished all of his collecting all together.

Character Sheet -

Name: Kandy "Kennedy" Stallione
Age: 33
Gender: Female
Appearance: Kandy has black hair with the left half of her hair cut off. Her left eye is purple and her right eye is green (because gamergate). Her face features are unimpressive with a scar over her left eye and widespread freckles across her cheeks. She has hipster glasses. Her clothes are a white jacket with a blue shirt underneath. She has purple sweatpants and black high heel boots with the heels replaced by knives.
Weapons: Firing replica of a Stevens Tip-Up "Auto-Shot" .410 Single-Shot Shotgun Pistol and her heel knives (when kicking or stepping on other people's feet with knife heels deliberately or on accident).
History: Kandy was born in a middle-class family with odd eyes. Her mother was a police officer and her dad was a amateur boxing champion. When she was 19, a masked assailant broke into her house and caused the deaths of her mother and father with his axe. She tried to fight the assailant, she was left unconscious with her vocal folds damaged beyond recovery and her left eye has been scarred. She was rushed to the hospital and her ravaged vocal folds were replaced by a man's, giving her the voice of a man. She was then interviewed about the incident with her new voice in action, earning her the nickname of "Kennedy" or "Kennedy Stallione".

After graduating college, she then became an author of a sci-fi fiction book called "A Girl's Vocalamity" based on her life but with fictional and sci-fi elements added in along with the book protagonist's name being "Lucy O'Brien" with a nickname called "Lucius" stuck to her after the voice transplant. After her success with the book, she, in later years, continued to write more books, but none of them were a great success as her first book was, most being hit with mixed-to-negative reviews, leading to her becoming a washed up author who then faded into obscurity, except for her first book she's written, and quit her writing career when she was 31. She then bought a firing replica of a Stevens .410 gauge shotgun pistol along with 20 .410 gauge shells. Now, when the zombie apocalypse had struck, it grabbed her attention, leading her to replacing the heels in her high heel boots with knives the exact height the original heels were.

(This is by far probably the least realistic RP character I've done. Oh yeah, and her voice sounds like G-Man from Half-Life.)

Name: Daniel Yuen
Alias: "Danny" by friends
Age: 26
Physical Appearance:
{Physique}- Daniel is rather small for a person of his age, standing a below-average 5'8" and weighing 137 lbs. He is a lean-bodied person with little muscle protrusion, and a small-framed individual with long fingers. He has short black hair, dark brown eyes and light-colored skin, which is very slightly tanned caused by his extended times outside.
{Clothing}- Daniel usually wears a grey button-down with black jeans and a pair of brown decks He wears a watch on his left hand that he continuously tinkers around with, and also wears a small tool belt around him to carry his tools when he goes out as a “just-in-case”. He puts on his green parka in the cold days.
Items and Weapons:
{Tool Belt}- Wire cutters, a set of drivers with replacement screws and nuts, pliers, tongs, a lighter and scissors.
{Weapons}- A high powered taser and a couple of homemade cherry bombs
Biography: Daniel was born in the heartlands of Vancouver, Canada and lived a normal life for most of his life, or at least as normal as a quarantine zone can get. He worked with many electronics before the outbreak, especially in the likes of computers. He innovated new products and inventions that he kept to himself, and is still a secret to this day. An unfortunate event within the quarantine forced him and his family to leave when he was 18, who managed to survived for five years. Daniel was separated from his family in his last two years, and survived another month by himself before he wandered into the territory of a group called The Vineyard Society. Expecting death, Daniel was surprised when they happily took him in and gave him a new home, although he was unsure about them for his first few weeks since they took his supplies. Daniel still resides in the Vineyard Society as an important member of the group.

Character Sheet -

Name: Asher Bryant

Alias: Ash

Age: 34

Gender: Male

Appearance: Asher has a normal figure for his age, standing at a height of 6'1 and weighing 167 lbs. His sloppy, blonde hair is cut so it creates a sort of a messy faux hawk look. His beard that would normally be shaved clean is now thick as the Amazon rainforest. He has hazel eyes and a tanned-color skin. Asher doesn't have much muscle outline, yet can be still considered tough. Also, he has a couple scars on his face due to his experience in the CIA. For clothing, a simple green t-shirt under a thick, brown coat is worn. Also, he wears loose jeans so that he can feel comfortable.

Weapons: Asher prefers to defend himself with the Glock 42, the small and compact firearm that can be concealed easily. After the apocalypse broke out Asher stopped trying to hide his special gun, yet he will tuck it away if necessary. For melee, Asher brings with him an elite SOG knife, with the handle brazened in aluminum. Both his weapons can be hidden in a secret compartment under his coat.

History: Asher was born and raised in northern Florida until the age of twelve. His father worked as a full-time lawyer and his mother a nurse. Ash also had an older brother who was a year older. Abruptly, his father moved his family of four to the heart of Miami, where crime thrived and the police worked tirelessly. Asher's dad was bringing in the dough from all the court cases, but it also strained him. Eventually, Asher's dad would become depressed and beaten. Later he quit his full-time job. While Asher's mother kept the roof over their heads, his older brother was out every night partying and enjoying the life of Miami. As time passed, Asher grew more and more interested in intelligence work. Every night he dreamed of the risks and the action and how he could be involved. Soon he enrolled for the CIA, and thrived there, learning new combating techniques and overall becoming a stronger person, physically and mentally. When the apocalypse occurred, Asher quickly moved out to southwestern part of the States, since the East was under heavy attack.

(Just got back from school.)

@Marc - Your CS is actually highly unrealistic so I'm declining you seeing as you may not be taking this seriously. Sorry amigo.

@WiFi - Change up your biography mate. The outbreak started not even a month ago. Plus you need to fiddle with a few things as some of it isn't accurate.

@Pompi - Accepted.

@Pawz - I gotcha covered.

Alright, if Pawz and WiFi get their CSes up today then that will leave two overflow spots. They'll be going on a first-come-first-serve basis but the characters will need to have depth in order to be accepted.

(Attempted realism refit of my original CS.)

Character Sheet -

Name: Kandy Stallione
Age: 33
Gender: Female
Appearance: Kandy has black hair with the left half of her hair cut off. Her eye color is green. Her face features are unimpressive with a scar over her left eye and widespread freckles across her cheeks. She has hipster glasses. Her clothes are a white jacket with a blue shirt underneath. She has purple sweatpants and black lace-up boots. She has a guitar bag with her weapons inside.
Weapons: Firing replica of a Stevens Tip-Up "Auto-Shot" .410 Single-Shot Shotgun Pistol with 20 .410 gauge shells and a axe.
History: Kandy was born in a middle-class family. Her mother was a police officer and her dad was a amateur boxing champion. When she was 19, a masked assailant broke into her house and caused the deaths of her mother and father with his axe. She tried to fight the assailant, she was knocked unconscious with her back and her left eye scarred. She was then rushed to the hospital.

After graduating college, she then became an book writer. Normally, her writing process involves rolling her eyes for 30 seconds while thinking of a paragraph to write and then writing it down after getting an idea for a book paragraph or dialogue. She made her first book which is a fiction book called "A Girl's Calamity" based on her life but with fictional elements added in along with the book protagonist's name being "Lucy O'Brien". After her success with the book, she, in later years, continued to write more books, but none of them were a great success as her first book was, most being hit with mixed-to-negative reviews, leading to her becoming a washed up author who then faded into obscurity, except for her first book she's written, and quit her writing career when she was 27.

She got a new job as a Amtrak train conductor after quitting. However, at the age of 31, due to schedule difficulties, she was fired. She then bought a firing replica of a Stevens .410 gauge shotgun pistol along with 20 .410 gauge shells using the money she had earned as a conductor and writer. Now, when the zombie apocalypse had struck, it grabbed her attention, leading to her getting a axe and a guitar bag to store her firing replica gun, gauge shells and the axe in.

@Pick - Go right ahead

@Marc - I don't think that you really read over one rule in particular. Also, personally, I'm still not liking the weapons she's carrying nor the cliché "mom and dad killed by random person," thing.

Marc, I recommend you make a new character and I'll give you one more shot since I know for a fact that you commit to roleplays instead of abandoning them like some people do.

If it's just not fitting the style though I'll have to deny you again.

(Third time's the charm, I hope.)

Character Sheet -

Name: Brandon Lester

Age: 35

Gender: Male

Appearance: Brandon has brown hair and orange color eyes. His facial features are a shaved beard and some pimples appearing on his forehead and left cheek, showing signs he has acne. His clothes are a tank top layered over by a black polo shirt with a black tie over it and police labels along with a police badge. His black pants have some rips in them and he has black sneakers.

Weapons: Brandon carries a Glock 17 with 4 magazines in one of his jacket pockets. He has his police baton in his back pants pocket.

History: Brandon was born in an middle-class family. His life was average. He was a B- student in most of his schools. He had a few handful of friends. He was a TV kid. He was married after graduating college and had one son. His job was as a mail man. However, after complications with taking care of a kid, he broke up with his wife at the age of 32 and moved to another place, which would be the same place that would be overrun by zombies 3 years after moving in.

He worked as a police officer, which explains how he has these weapons, working daily arresting criminals and chasing them if they're getting away. His pay allowed for a sightly fancier house. When the outbreaks happened, he happened to survive and now hides in the initial house he was in before getting a new house, which is now unanimously ambushed by zombies.

Name: Olympia Charlotte Bronson. Her parents had a sort of, agh, 'superiority' complex, and so chose a rather posh name for their child.
Age: She is approaching her thirtieth year, but is otherwise twenty-nine.
Gender: Female - duh.
Appearance: The picturesque model, Olympia towers over most woman, standing at a incredible 6'3, and weighs in at 125 pounds. With a spindly, sinewy build, it was clear before the 'event' has started, this woman worked out daily to keep her thin shape. Even now, she'll choose to forgo heavier meals, and work herself to the bone if needed. It's sickening, sometimes, how one has to forcibly encourage her to eat - for she simply can't let go her old habits.

With wide-set eyes, and a pinched nose, Olympia's lurid, heart-shaped face certainly gives off an air of innocence. With a rosy complexion, the woman's pale, ablaster cheeks almost-always seem to hold a hint of ruddy colour within, even on the coldest of days. Freckles dapple her upper facial structure, the occasional light brown spot decorating the bridge of her curved nose or cheeks. Her mouth is puckered into a noticeable cupid's both, with full ruby lips, and noticeable sharp cheekbones. Regarding her almond-shaped ocular organs, Olympia has a piercing cobalt gaze, with a golden disfigurement in her left iris.

Glossy locks fall over this particular woman's eyes, raven-black hair with a particular sheen to it. Often worn down, or braided, her dark strands fall midway to her back, where it would be easy for one to grab it in combat. While she's debating getting a cut, she quite likes the amount of hair growing from her head, and has yet to make a final decision. She's very vain when it comes to the well-being of her hair, and will fret if a single strand is out of place. She can often be found smoothing it down.
Weapons: For her melee weapon, Olympia wields a primitive steel pipe, with a jagged end. With this, she can jab, and even cut foes who trifle with her. [ for her ranged, can you roll me something? i'm not good with weapons. ]

History: The youngest of four, Olympia was born on a wintery day, on January 17th. As a child, she was quite withdrawn, given the fact that she had to fight her elder siblings in order to grab attention. When she was seven, she took up playing an instrument; piano, apparently destined to follow her path of her family, who were a pack of musicians. While Olympia never truly excelled at the instrument, she had a minimal grasp of what it was like to play, and could manage a couple of songs. At the encouragement of her brother Marcus, who was three years her elder, she tentatively tried out for her middle school talent school when she was twelve, entering the competition as a instrumentalist in addition to sing. Imagine her astonishment when she places second place, which was far beyond something Olympia could have imagined at her earlier.

Feeling as if she now had a purpose in life, Olympia began to work on her inner talent, coaxing out the voice inside of her. In the years that followed, the teenaged Olympia began to feel more confident in herself, leading her to actively belt out various songs. She worked feverishly to excel at what she did, however it did not occur her to go pro until a offer came up out of a blue. A talent agent, having her her works, promised the teenager a record deal, in addition to releasing a debut album in the years that came after. With the support of her parents and siblings, Olympia went for it, signing onto Everrod Industries[i'unno, made it up] who then proceeded to churn out four albums afterwards. While her first was rather successful, Olympia soon found her career was edged out of the way by the younger idols. However, she refused to quit, and continued to entertain audiences of devoted followers even if she was the back-burner act. Once a headliner, she found herself satisfied with the life she led. It wasn't until the very last minute was Olympia pressured to give up what she did, and when the 'apocalypse' started, well, this starlet was quite late to the party.

Now traversing about in filthy clothes, and wielding rugged weapons, she continues to demonstrate her willingness to adapt, and use what's around her in a sophisticated manner with little attitude. However, you'll find Olympia can't quite forget her past, and she'll often reminisce on her own golden days. Since her third album, she has not had contact with any of her imminent family.
Other: Is this alright? I'm honestly flying blind here. No clue what the hell I'm doing. Probably missed something, ugh, I'm sorry.
