I might join, if you'll have me. Big fan of The Walking Dead, so a nice zombie role play would be fun now.

JUICESIR
Name: Nathan Bachmeier
Age: 17
Appearance: 5'8" with black hair, he's fairly skinny. He looks like one of those kids who could be a skater. But he games instead. Often wears a mahogany and grey stripped hoodie with a black beanie. Jeans are fairly baggy, unlike the style from what you might expect him to be from. Old converse and glasses complete the ensemble.
Personality: Nathan is fairly quiet, with that odd, geeky sense of humor he only really shares among friends. Always wanting of an apocalypse but never believing it to be capable in his lifetime, he's had somewhat of a riot dealing with it.
Strengths:
-Fast
-Very smart
-Friendly and easygoing
-Area knowledge
-Knows how to ride a bike
Weaknesses:
-Never shot a gun before
-Somewhat of a coward
-No survival training
-Quiet
-Bad eyesight
Family: A single child with two parents and a grandfather still alive. Cousins somewhere up the coast in Oregon. Parents fled. He does not know the status of any of his relatives.
History: Born and raised in Liam, he's lived here his whole life. He's done about as well as any kid can. He went to school, grew up, got a few close friends. His best three friends Zach, Trevor and Jeff are all long time partners in crime of his, the closest thing he considers to be brothers. While he's not a particularly outgoing kid, when he's with them he always gets in trouble.
Attending high school, he had somewhat of a falling out with his friends, and turned to video games in his angst and depression. Battling that depression, he was eventually put on medication to help but has since managed to cope without it. He's earned decent grades but nothing spectacular. He has, however, made a name for himself as being one of the premier online gamers in the area and has even gone on to compete in some regional tournaments. He prides himself on his high scores and shows an affinity for FPSs and RPGs.
Nathan has never been particularly close with anyone outside of his three friends. His mom is a nurse and his dad does some sort of legal work, which basically puts at least one of them always out of the house. He's been pretty self-sufficient, and September 23rd to him was just one of those days where he had to sort of take care of himself. As usual.

Think if I do join, I'll make a hick character. Doesn't fit in well with the locals, doesn't like many people, but knows what he's doing in outdoorsy stuff and surviving alone. (Yes, for those of you who watch The Walking Dead, I want the position of Daryl. xD) It fits me.

Name: Lucy “Chase” Andrews
Age: 18
Appearance:
DUR


Naturally a blonde, Chase dyes her hair red, though if you look closely you can see her obnoxiously light roots. But, be careful! Mention her blonde origins and she might just chop your head off with her bare hands, if that’s even possible.

Chase has dark blue eyes and a pale complexion that seems to never go away, despite how desperately she tries to get a tan. It just never happens. Instead, she easily burns under the sunlight, getting her the nickname of “Dracula” from her friends- before they went Zombie on her, though…

She’s regular height, nothing fancy, and has subtle curves though you wouldn’t notice through the baggy jackets she wears over her casual jeans and occasion band T-shirt.

Personality: She’s a quirky soul who tries to make a joke out of everything that happens to her. Her sarcasm drips off the tongue and she’s pretty sharp. Chase is proud, stubborn, and sometimes insecure behind her jabs at people. She can be random, very random actually, and loves to quote things that really don’t make any sense in the context of the situation.

Also, beware of her funny faces. She makes them a lot and, most of the time, without even knowing she’s doing it. Point this out, and you’ll find yourself dead on the side of the road.

Strengths:
  • Serious drive to survive
  • Strong-willed
  • Street-smart (common sense is her forte)
  • Drives like a Tasmanian devil
  • Quick on her feet


Weaknesses:
  • Clumsy
  • Hearing is slowly going bad due to serious listens-to-loud-music-syndrome
  • Lapses of laziness
  • Insecurities can make her doubt herself
  • Previously sprained ankle still bothers her from time to time


Family: Lived with her older brother for the past few years whose status is unknown. Her mother lives in seclusion in Montana, middle of nowhere, and doing swell at the moment. She also has a naked mole rat as her pet and he’s alive…

History: Chase, born Lucy, almost immediately changed her identity when her dad passed five years ago, going from good ol’ blonde Lucy to red-headed fury by the name of Chase, a name she’d always found catchy for one reason or another. After her dad passed and her mother was found unfit to take care of her due to the woman’s serious case of agoraphobia, Chase was shipped off from Montana to Liam, California where her older brother, twenty at the time, lived.

Chase didn’t make many friends while living in Liam, only a select few able to tolerate her eccentric, strange behaviors and vice versa. She never really liked school much, though reading was a favorite past-time of hers along with listening to la musica. But, still, there was only so much to do. In this lame town, Chase managed to stir up a lot of mischief with her friends: pranking teachers, messing with store clerks, running butt-naked through the streets, all that jazz and always joked that even the apocalypse wouldn’t keep her from being a loony.

Well…

I've lost many character sheets and long posts back in the day. Now, I type everything up in word documents and save as I go before posting.

Anyway. I'm assuming this is the case, but in this "universe", people are aware of the concept of "zombies", right? So many movies/shows go on the basis that, somehow, not one zombie flick/game/book had ever been created in the history of mankind. :<

Think I'll join this RP, since I too have been obsessed with The Walking Dead lately. >:>

Go for it Twisted lolz. All walks of life are welcomed here, i know my guy won't be exactly the most typical sort of person (30 year old korean male who acts more like he's 16)

AAAND yeah this Universe is just like ours. Like...zombie movies and games galore. rofl It should be interesting to see some people brainstorming based on movies that they've seen. My poor Charlie never was a fan of zombie movies x.x

Enigmatic
Name: James Bryant
Age: 26

Appearance


Personality: James is a laid back and relaxed type of guy who is generally easy to get along with. Though a businessman before everything went to hell, he was the kind that wasn't intimidating and could easily be approached, a trait that made him many friends. He likes to play the hero sometimes, and will often go out of his way to help someone in need.

When it comes to race and class, he doesn't discriminate and has little tolerance for those that do. Rather than start a conflict though, he'll tend to just keep his distance from the few people he can't get along with. Unless, of course, those people are a danger to him or others.

Strengths:
- Knows how to "deal with" all types of people, verbally of course...
- Physically fit; high stamina, average strength for his build, pretty swift.
- He's actually a pretty good fighter, but unfortunately his talents are essentially useless against the undead. Human asses can still be kicked if need be, however.
- When he's set his mind to something, he'll do his damn best to accomplish it.
- Likes to think ahead when he has time to, and his field of work made it so he needed to be good at gathering and processing information quickly.

Weaknesses:
- Lacks training in the use of firearms.
- Too brash at times; has gotten him in trouble in the past.
- Will often go along with the flow as to avoid unnecessary confrontation.
- Doesn't know how to drive as he's always been a public transport kind of guy.
- New to the area, thus not too familiar with the town layout.

Family: He's an only child, and the condition of his parents are a mystery to him as he hasn't been in contact with them for some time now. His ex-girlfriend, well...
History: Months ago, James lived on the east coast with his girlfriend, Denise. At the time, he led a successful and happy life; he had a stable, well-paying job, fun colleagues, and a boss that wasn't a jackass. However, things began to change once his then boss left and was replaced. With the economy the way it was, the first thing that new boss decided to do was to make some "needed" cuts. Unfortunately for James, his name was one of many on that list. At first, his girlfriend was consoling and assured that she would be able to support them long enough for him to find new work, but after months flew by with no luck getting back in the race, things began to look bleak for them. Bills were piling up and her paycheck alone was not enough.

It ultimately ended with Denise unable to pay for all of their expenses, and so she had decided to move back in with a friend. This left James with nowhere to stay as he hadn't found work yet and obviously couldn't afford to stay either. With what was left in his savings account, James gambled it all on a change of scenery. He had read that there were some available positions for his field elsewhere, and thus booked a flight and left his past behind him. Yeah. That didn't turn out so well. As fate would have it, the world ended just before he could get that interview.

I'll try to have my character up by tomorrow. Got some storms coming through, and I don't want my pc fried tonight.

EDIT: Can I make my guy a bit racist? I think the tension it would case could be interesting. Not dropping the N word or anything similar, just a superiority complex basically.Figured since 2 are not Caucasian it could make some interesting moments.

LOL go for it :3 Charlie won't be very happy about it (neither would James I'd imagine. rofl in fact I see James spazzing about it more than Charlie would. Lucky you guys get my less angry character ;P) but i think it would definitely be amusing and add more depth to the rp if your charrie was racist



I've updated the accepted playable characters bit
....wicked i wasn't sure if you were finished...but...it seemed like you were....so i added you rofl

hmmmm. I'm torn between revamping Charlie to be more....confrontational....or just making my second character another korean male who is gonna have issues with Twisted's charrie. 'cause atm....Charlie won't let his comments get to him. and i want action rofl

So what do you guys say? Should i make a hot (white) chick (and change charlie a bit), or a hot headed korean guy for my second charrie?

(bah i need to stop double posting. my brain doesn't register that i am though 'cause i'm too tired x.x)

There we go, one nerdy, 'historically accurate' wannabe knight.

Do you mind if I don't type up another character sheet about his sister? I'll write her description down somewhere, but she'll be a relatively minor character.
