This is a reboot of the Kill, Escape, Restart I made back in December. I will take 6-7 players, however 4 slots are reserved for wwolin, Imp, Corai, and detective1412 if they want to play.
Modified OP from Kill, Escape, Restart:
Life was normal… until they came. The zombies are everywhere! And it’s my goal to
A. Stop them
B. Survive
C. Create a new world
The Utopia Faction:
Ever wanted to start life anew? After the Zombie apocalypse is the perfect chance. Build a government; make new rules about things like taxes, marriage, and defense. Keep out the military, zombies, and any who stand in your way of a new life, and a new way. But not all of you agree one which way is the new way. 6-7 slots.

Backstory: Jason was a funny kid who liked playing with knives, now I know what your thinking but no he didn't stab anybody with knives.
He used knives to whittle spears and stabbed people with them.....
He somehow avoided ever getting caught and shortly after leaving school he joint the police, in training he displayed remarkable marksmanship and was swiftly shifted across to the armed police and quickly designated a sniper for the team.
Through this his hobby remained except now it had expanded into creating any weapon that did not require gunpowder.

Utopian dream society: A world where he gets everything he wants.
Hobby: Gun Collection
horribly in a torture factory, alone and cold.
I'm quite interested in rejoining this. I was going to ask if we were restarting where we left off?
But since a lot of other players haven't continued.... I suspect we're not?
Is it ok if I play the same character/personality? Assuming it is, here's good old Jane again (new players might not have met her yet, and backstory added as requested):
Name: Jane Andrews
Gender: Female
Age: 46
Previous occupation: Restaurant Manager
Backstory: Having grown up as an abused child who was never popular in school, Jane's clever and careful and has mostly forgiven humanity for the torment done to her when she was helpless. She did graduate from high school and is quite intelligent; she might have gotten far in college but she wanted to work instead and was promoted well in various careers for being well spoken and dedicated. She started studying martial arts while still in high school, and in a sense she's still not grown up - she matured extremely early and started behaving with the restraint needed to survive the abuse she faced by the time she was four, but in many ways parts of her are still a child and could always be. She grew up with horror and has seen some of the absolute worst that human beings can do to each other; self control and control of her immediate environment is absolutely essential to her. So long as she can control herself, all actually is right in her world, no matter what monsters confront her or what form they appear as.
Religion: Animist (personal form)
Utopian dream society: Meritocracy based on value of individual unique skills and traits; social contracts based on individual interactions; Punishment as punishment has no place, but the prevention of continued harm is sane and essential (and can include any level of 'prevention', including lethal force)
Hobby: Kendo
Character sheet
Name: Robert George
Gender: Male
Age: 23
Previous occupation: Former Marine Engineer
Backstory: Nothing particularly interesting until he was twenty. That's when he joined the marines in hopes of getting to go to Japan (and access to the other nice perks)! Turns out that didn't go so well and only got as far as California. He got trained as an a vehicle mechanic after basic. He didn't really enjoy it much so after his two year contract was over he left. He went to live with his parents while trying to get into college... and that's when the zombie Apocalypse happened.
Religion: Christianity
Utopian dream society: A place where assholes and dicks and jerks no longer exist and everyone is nice to everyone.
Hobby: A hardcore zombie video game player. If it has zombies in it, he's played it, beat it, then beat a thousand more times.
First off is Clair Jade, the Artist that is really a thief. She is just here because she doesn't like being round zombies on her own. However she's pretty sneaky and good at sewing so the group can probably use those skills. The needle and thread and paintbrushes she brought, not so much. She is also unused to firing guns.
Modifiers:
+1 to stealthy
+1 to sewing
-1 to Gun combat
Inventory:
Needle and Thread
Paintbrushes
Secondly we have Jason Hathorn the police sniper. He loves knifes and sniper rifles and is focused on any society that is militarized and capable of survival. Fittingly, he's good at firing his sniper rifle and making melee weapons like spears and axes. He has a whittling knife as well as his sniper rifle.
Modifiers:
+1 to combat w/sniper
+1 to creating melee weapons
Inventory:
Sniper Rifle
Whittling Knife
Then there is Moe the alligator wrestler. He dwelled in the swamps, but then left for the city when the zombies came. He loves to wrestle, and can survive well in the swamp. He has a hunting rifle, alligator skin clothes, and the head of an alligator he wrestled to death, and little else.
Modifiers:
+1 to wrestling
+1 to swamp survival
Inventory:
Alligator Trophy
Hunting Rifle
Dr. Chomsky seems much more sane. A doctor who has an interest in guns, Dr. Chomsky will be a good medic and should be able to repair any damaged guns as well. He brought his medical kit, and a shotgun from his collection.
Modifiers:
+1 to giving first aid
+1 to gun maintenance
Inventory:
Medical Kit
Shotgun
Haruki Nomaiko looked strange. He had an electronic synthesizer on his back and was wearing a set of samurai armor while holding a book on Samurai Legends. But it turned out he was just an electronic artist who was good at composition and liked samurai legends. He was good at swordplay from that, but was unused to guns.
Modifiers:
+1 to composition
+1 to combat w/sword
-1 to gun combat
Inventory:
Synthesizer
Book on Samurai
Armor and Sword
Then there was Jane Andrews the restaurant manager. Jane was sad that the zombie apocalypse happened but excited by the possibilities it provided. She was good at organizing supplies and fighting with swords but was unused to using guns. She managed to bring along her set of kendo gear (including a sword) and some allan wrenches.
Modifiers:
+1 to organizing food
+1 to combat w/sword
Inventory:
1 set of kendo gear (including sword)
1 set of allen wrenches

Robert George loved playing zombie video games, so he found it cool when the zombie apocalypse happened. The video games gave him lots of zombie knowledge, but he was also a good mechanic, who still had his repair kit, next to his copy of Undead Terror 2: Escape from Tower City.
Modifiers:
+1 to repairs
+1 to zombie knowledge
Inventory:
1 small repair kit
1 copy of Undead Terror: Escape from Tower City
You are currently in the foyer of an office building that you have made sure is clear of zombies. You have found some things lying around already but there are probably more in the building.(4) (1,5) One of your group find a friendly-looking person in a nearby office (6,3,2) One of you found a large book on Nazi Germany. (1,1) Another one of you spots another group of survivors in the cafeteria and you don't think they looked friendly (4,2) Another of you found some guy's secret stash of candy. There isn't very much. Now what do you do? There is a grocery store and a movie theater across the street but you'll have to sneak or fight your way past the zombies first if you want to go there.
Large Book on Nazi Germany
Small bag of Candy.
Friendly looking Person in nearby office
Hostile looking survivor group in cafeteria
lots of Zombies outside
(I will bold items picked up or created as well as the time your character's turn shows up)
The 7 of you stand there for a moment, before Haruki says "I'm going to look for more stuff. Someone should talk to the friendly looking person. Someone else should an eye on the hostile people, in case they try doing anything." Robert replies "Well... um... I'll look for some more stuff too. I'll look over near the entrance and make sure no zombies seem to notice people are in here." Jane nods as Haruki starts looking around for stuff specifically a janitor's closet. (4) After exploring a little bit, Haruki finds a janitorial supplies closet that looks like it has some stuff taken away, but not much. Then Moe announces his plans, "Guy below me's stealin my colors. Ah well, I'll take charge of the scouting and scuvanging missions, I've been survivin out in the swamps a looong time. Alligaters ain't much difrent to the zombies. Yuh get bit, yuh die of infection. Only a lut more of em... Have I ever told you of the time..." Robert is very annoyed at this and tells him "Woah! Don't go shooting randomly! Gunshots carry a long distance and every single kind of zombie uses sound to help find their victims. We don't wanna go around shooting unless there a big need to. That is unless you want this place to eventually be swarming with dead people. If it turns out there is pretty much a whole horde out there then that swarm will be here now instead of eventually. Please rethink what you're getting ready to do."
Meanwhile, Dr. Chomsky searches for weapons and medical supplies. (6) He looks around, and finds that the only guns and medical supplies on this floor are stockpiled near the cafeteria by the hostile survivor group, but are currently unguarded. It’s a pretty big pile. The group in the cafeteria (2) does nothing. Dr. Chomsky hears one mention that they are waiting for two of their scouts report back after checking if it’s safe to move out. A fuming Robert starts looking for supplies. (5,3) Robert finds a box of bandages on the floor by a wall where loose straps are all that remains of a medical kit. It looks like someone got there before him. Then he looks for a view outside the building. (5) The doors in front of the building are glass sliding doors that open when you get near them. But one of your group disabled them so the zombies can’t get in, or you out from there without breaking glass. (1) Speaking of zombies the street outside is covered by them. If they get inside the building it would be very bad for the group. (4) Thankfully they seem to be ignoring the building, but if Moe starts firing they could begin to attack the building. Jane follows him and starts talking, "Glad you're keeping watch," she says to Robert. "I'm worried about the ground-floor windows too, and aren't there other doors? This building's going to be something if we can really secure it." She licks her lips, then asks, "I think there's already some people securing the cafeteria's supplies, but I didn't recognize them and they sure didn't look glad to see me. Do you know any of them?" before glancing behind her for anyone approaching them. (1) Two guys from the cafeteria approach, one armed with a fire ax, the other with a shotgun. “Hey, you are not allowed here. Only the Risen can come here.” The guy with the shotgun points it at Jane, who looks like the larger threat seeing as she has her kendo gear on.
Jason starts smashing up desks. (4) He uses brute force to smash one to pieces. He pulls out his whittling knife and begins to make spears from two of the desk legs. (3+1)(5+1) He makes one sharp wooden stake and uses twine and a sharp metal point to make a sharp spear with another desk leg.
Clair Jade goes to talk to the friendly person who turns out to be a middle-aged women who until recently was probably an office drone. "Hi here! Who are you?" Clair purred. (6) “Thank god you’re here. I thought I was going to die. The people based in the cafeteria came in here and they began to talk about that they were the Risen or something and how the world was falling but they would rise. They killed everyone who was left here but I managed to hide. I saw you guys come in and was so happy. Can your group help me? I can help you guys in return. My name is Clair Stone.” Oh no, Clair Jade thinks, another Clair.
Moe heads up to the second story, pulls open a window, and starts firing at the horde of zombies. (5) He shoots 5 times and is guranteed not to miss (3+1,3+1,3+1,6+1,2+1) 3 zombies get bullets to the chest, 1 is shot in the head and dies, and the last shot misses. (2) The zombies moan but otherwise do nothing, for now.

Turn 2
(I will bold items picked up, moved or created as well as the time your character's turn shows up.)
In the lobby of the main building, the confrontation continues. Robert tries to persuade the gunman and his pal to give up. (2) Both of them ignore him. Moe heads down the stairs again, and comes across 2 guys menacing Jane and Robert. In a surprisingly well-thought out plan, Moe yells “It’s a zombie!” while rolling the alligator past the doorway. (4) The guy with the shotgun turns around and (3) is startled by the alligator head. Then Moe shoots him. (6) The bullet goes straight through the cultist’s brain, killing him. (1) In the cafeteria it sounds like the hostile group is partying as they have really loud rock music blasting. The guy with the fire ax charges Moe. (2) Moe drops his rifle in surprise as the axman charges him (2) and completely misses with his ax. Moe responds by pretending the guy is an alligator and wrestling with him. (6+1) It isn’t pretty when Moe is done with the guy. Jane takes advantage of the distraction to leap forward but isn’t sure whether to get in sword range of the gunman or out of the line of fire. Jane’s choice is solved when Moe kills both hostiles. Meanwhile Jason heads towards Robert offering a makeshift spear he made. Robert takes it, then Jason wanders off looking for more sharp metal. (6) He finds a collection of 15 knives in a manager’s office. Throwing knives, Swiss army knives, and some sheath knives. You hear a sudden silence as the music in the cafeteria stops for no discernible reason.
Dr. Chomsky moves over to look for Clair, walking past a room where two guys are menacing Robert and Jane. He finds Clair talking to another person, who turns out to be Clair. “Hey Clair, want to help me steal their guns and medical supplies?” Clair agrees, and they head over to the weapons stockpile, noticing as they pass that the hostiles are dead. When they get to the hallway near the room and the cafeteria, Clair moves stealthily towards the gun and medical kit pile with the Doctor in tow. (5+1+1)(2+1) Clair stealthily moves very fast to the room with the gun pile unnoticed. The doctor seems to get past the doorway, but there is a sudden silence as someone turns off the loud music.
Haruki raids the closet for anything he can get. (6) Haruki sees rows of cleaning supplies, and decides he needs to come back for most of it. However he grabs 5 cans, (6) someone also decided to stockpile food in there two, so he grabs a couple of cans of food and realizes he needs to come back for more. Finally he checks for other useful items. (5) He finds a floor mop water holder (http://www.lakecitysupply.com/images/1.jpg), and realizes this is the perfect device for carrying his loot. Haruki dumps all the canned food and cleaning spray cans into the bucket and rolls the device back towards the group’s stockpile.
Clair Stone (5) decides to look for food. (4) She finds an office worker’s untouched lunch.

Robert congratulates Moe, then heads upstairs, and sees that the second floor is a wide space with cubicles a few manager’s offices, and some restrooms. He sees a window open that must be where Moe had shot from. (6) He doesn’t see any zombies, but he comes across another office worker hiding in his cubicle. (I’m lazy so I won’t make a map of the second floor unless it is requested or a lot of people go up there.)
Dr. Chomsky grabs the machine gun and some grenades and aims it at the door to the cafeteria. (5) Three of the Risen walk out the door to be met by a burst of machine gun fire and a grenade. (1, 5, 5, 2) Dr. Chomsky drops the grenade on his foot; thankfully he didn’t pull the pin first. The machine gun burst hits two of the men in the legs for (1) damage each causing them to fall and misses the third guy entirely. The third guy pulls out his pistol and shoots (5) Dr. Chomsky in the leg for (5) damage. He yells out in pain, and falls. Behind him, Clair Jade grabs a pistol and about 7 clips of ammo before attempting to cover the doctor. She watches as the doctor is shot in the leg and falls to the ground.
Dr. Chomsky 15/20 HP
Hostile 1 19/20 HP
Hostile 2 19/20 HP
Hostile 3 at full health
Jason heads for the gun room to grab a weapon, and sees Dr. Chomsky’s shoot out with the three men. Jason doesn’t think he can get to the gun stockpile without being shot. He heads back to make spears from the knives. (6+1) he makes 9 wicked looking spears from the knives and from desk legs. He has 3 throwing knives and 3 sheath knives left.
Haruki wheels his Water holder to the group’s stockpile, then goes to explore the back of the building. He walks around the corner to the back hallway and sees the cafeteria at the end of the hall. (3) He ducks around the corner as he saw several cultists in the cafeteria looking around.
Jane congratulates Moe how he dealt with the problem then follows him and accepts the looted shotgun. After picking up his trophy and being congratulated by Robert and Jane, Moe hands Jane a shotgun. He then goes and looks for food. (2) After checking some offices he pauses, wondering what to do next. Gunfire sounds from the cafeteria.
Clair Stone (1) hides in her office when she hears the gunfire.

Backstory: Having grown up as an abused child who was never popular in school, Jane's clever and careful and has mostly forgiven humanity for the torment done to her when she was helpless. She did graduate from high school and is quite intelligent; she might have gotten far in college but she wanted to work instead and was promoted well in various careers for being well spoken and dedicated. She started studying martial arts while still in high school, and in a sense she's still not grown up - she matured extremely early and started behaving with the restraint needed to survive the abuse she faced by the time she was four, but in many ways parts of her are still a child and could always be. She grew up with horror and has seen some of the absolute worst that human beings can do to each other; self control and control of her immediate environment is absolutely essential to her. So long as she can control herself, all actually is right in her world, no matter what monsters confront her or what form they appear as.

Ignoring the pain in his leg, Dr. Chomsky throws the grenade at the men. (2) The grenade turns out to be a dud. Angered, Dr. Chomsky shoots at them with his machine gun. (2,4,4) He misses one and hits two of the hostiles for 4 and 6 damage. Jason walks out of the room and aims at the three attacking Dr. Chomsky. (2+1, 5+1, 4+1) The first shot misses, the second shot kills the second hostile, and the third slams into the third man’s chest for (2) damage. Clair Jade tries to shoot at the enemy, (2-1) but she accidentally drops the gun on her foot and then falls to the floor to pick it up. The first man fires at Dr. Chomsky, (5) hitting him in the other leg for 1 damage. (2+1) Despite loads of gunfire, only one of the people in the cafeteria joins in the firefight.

Haruki makes his way down the corridor to a room next to the cafeteria. (1) The guys in the cafeteria fail to notice him. (What is going on in there?) Haruki enters the room next to the cafeteria, sets up his synthesizer, and begins to play it. (4) 2 men leaves the cafeteria to check on the noise. Haruki attacks the first one from behind the door. (6+1) Haruki beheads him in one stroke, then (4+1) stabs the other one in the chest for (2) damage. After stashing extra ammo in her armor, Jane grabs the shotgun and follows Moe, lambasting for searching and not helping out. Moe has a plan, and asks Jane "Jane, yer coming with me? I'll need some backup on my scouting mission if I get in trouble. A shotgunner would be invaluable in close quarters fighting." Jane nods and says "Lets get it done." Moe heads out and down the hallway with Jane right behind him towards where Haruki was a moment ago. They watch as Haruki causes a distraction and kills on man and injures another. Bringing up his rifle, Moe fires it at the injured man, (6) killing him. (5) The shot causes 2 others to come running, Moe fires at them. (4,1) He hits the first in the arm for 1 damage. (2) His second shot results in a click. Seems like his rifle needs reloading. In retaliation, the man pulls out his pistol and (1) drops it on his foot.
Hostile 1 19/20 HP
Hostile 2: full health
Robert talks to the office worker, who turns out to be very talkative. “I’m John Johnson. I was working the day the zombies broke out, and I couldn’t get home to my family. My wife might be dead. Then those cultists came yesterday and started slaughtering everyone. I managed to avoid being spotted. I need to get past those zombies but I am mortified of them. So I’ve been hiding out here. This one manager was some Christian sect follower and he had lots of food and water in his office, so I’ve been living off that.” When Robert asks if he’d like to help fight the cultists, he says he’ll be glad to as they killed two of his friends. He walks over to a manager’s office, and pulls out a Bushmaster AR-15. “This guy was a major NRA nut too.” The two of you head downstairs towards the right cafeteria doors. When you get there, you see that three men are fighting an injured Dr. Chomsky, Jason, and Clair.
Clair Stone continues to hide.

Moe reloads his rifle, then charges towards the guy who dropped his gun. The other guy in the hallway opens fire. (2) Or he would have if his gun had any ammunition in it. Moe tackles the guy who dropped his gun and wrestles him. (4+1) The man is thrown against a wall for 2 damage. Moe grabs the pistol. Haruki sees Moe charge the two men and joins in from the side. (4+1) As Moe tackles one man, Haruki slices the other one’s arm off, for 6 damage. Jane is surprised to see Moe charging at the enemy, but after a few seconds follows behind him. As Haruki leaps out and slices one man’s arm off, Jane joins the fray, drawing her katana and (3+1) stabbing the man in the chest for 2 damage.

Robert turns to John, and says “Alright John, I'm gonna rush them with my spear as soon as it seems like I can get close to them without getting shot at. I want you to cover me as while I rush in. That guy by the door that's near where the three crazy guys are at is with me so don't shoot him." John nods and they wait for an opportunity to attack. Meanwhile, Jason opens fire on the bad guys. (5+1,5+1,3+1) Two rounds slam into the first two men’s heads killing them. The third guy is shot in the chest for 4 damage. After seeing Jason take down two of the enemy, Robert charges in. (1) He trips over a dead body and falls to the ground taking 1 damage. Behind him John opens fire on the last remaining guy. (6-1) The shot hits the remaining cultist in the chest, causing 3 damage. Dr. Chomsky (4) ignores the pain in his legs and continues to shoot. (3-1) However the pain causes him to drop the gun when he tries to fire. Picking up the gun, Clair (5-1) shoots the last cultist in the leg for 3 damage. (6) Unfortunately, the last three guys choose this time to exit the room and try to join in the fight. They seem very surprised at the carnage outside and the numbers of their attackers.

Turn 7: (one more than the original Kill, Escape, Restart!)
Dr. Chomsky resumes combat with his machine gun. (1) He misses the hostiles and hits Robert for 4 damage. Jason fires again. (4+1,2+1,5+1) The very injured cultist on the floor is shot for 6 damage and breathes his last. The second shot misses, but the third shot kills a cultist. Jason then makes his way towards Clair. Clair looks relieved when a uniformed police officer walks into her office. (1) However, she seems determined not to leave her office. She doesn’t even want the spears.
Moe pulls out his fire ax and attacks. (2) He misses. Haruki picks up the final cultist’s sword. (6+1) Then he decapitates the cultists with both swords, causing Moe and Jane to duck as blood flies everywhere. Haruki walks into the cafeteria, where none of the hostiles remain. In the center of the room is a cage where two zombies are devouring a body. Money and ammunition on the table suggest your group interrupted a sadistic cage fight between 2 zombies and an office worker. Haruki heads through the other cafeteria doors and (6+1) and epically decapitates the last cultist.
Robert stares as Haruki charges through the doors behind the cultist and decapitates him. He keeps his spear and walks towards the weapons room, angry with the doctor for shooting him. He walks towards the weapons room and picks up an assault rifle. Jane watches as Haruki finishes off the last enemy, then she ducks behind the open cafeteria door to escape any surviving cultists line of fire from the cafeteria. Clair puts away her gun, and sees that all the hostiles are dead.

Turn 8:
Clair reloads her gun, and then moves over to the cage where she places her pistol to their heads and dispatches them both. (No rolls because it’s a pretty simple action) Haruki grabs the money off the table and starts looting corpses. (5,4) He finds a medical kit, (3,4) a nice looking shirt that isn’t bloody, (3,3) and a deck of cards. Moe heads off to look for food, seeing that Clair has already dispatched the zombies. (6) He spots a vending machine in the cafeteria full of healthy snacks and candy.
Robert applies a few bandages to himself (5) giving him 3 HP back. After apologizing to Robert, Dr. Chomsky begins to patch him up. (6+1) Using his entire medical kit Dr. Chomsky restores Robert to full health and even increases it some (Robert now has 25 health). Dr. Chomsky then grabs some grenades and looks at the small pile of arms and ammo.
Jason continues to try and convince the women to come with the group. (3) Finally she agrees, as long as she doesn’t have to fight the zombies. She introduces herself as Clair Stone, and turns out to be a network analyst. With that done he goes to grab an assault rifle and a pistol for her, telling her it’s just in case. Jason then grabs a back pack, and fills it with a few knives and the two suppressed pistols he finds in the pile.
Jane starts searching the first floor of the building again. (6,4,5) As she walks around she finds a corpse with a machete sticking out of its back. She grabs the machete and moves on. (1,6) When she walks into the next room a closet opens and a tall middle-aged man who is obviously a priest from his clothes and a man who looks about 90 years old walk out. The priest brandishes a shotgun at Jane and asks, “What was all that gunfire about? Are you one of those cultists guys who were wandering about?”
John Johnson calls his girlfriend. He gets her answering machine.

Jason continues to convince Clair she is going to need to fight. (6) She accepts finally, but asks for training to shoot well first. Jason walks over to the cafeteria and nominates himself for group leader. Robert and Haruki both don’t care about who leads and they leave to head to the third floor with John, but not before Jason hands Robert a pistol. Clair Stone enthusiastically supports his self-nomination, as she seems to be very enamored with Jason. (3) Pulling out his phone, Jason calls his boss on the SWAT team. While dialing, he sees that he only has enough battery for two calls. (1) Jason hears a message saying “There is no god and John is his prophet. The zombie apocalypse is time for us to throw off the government and form a new life. Police, Military, and all those who seek to subjugate us are no more or will be no more. This man died because he sought to destroy us. If you wish to join us, come to the Sheraton downtown.” He hangs up, shaken as he realizes that his SWAT team is either dead or in battle or scattered.
Clair and Haruki look out the front to see that (2) the zombie horde has mostly moved on, and only about 10 zombies are left. haruki also counts his money to see that he has Haruki sees that he has $134.90. in the weapons room, Dr. Chomsky looks at the weapons pile and sees that most of the weapons are pistols and rifles, with a few military weapons and the machine gun. Thanking Dr. Chomsky, Robert asks John if he wants to go with him to the third floor. John accepts, and Haruki and Moe join the group too, they head to the third floor, Robert being given a pistol by Jason. (2,2) The third floor is a lot like the second floor, with nothing really out of the ordinary. Robert picks up a stapler he finds on the floor.
Jane responds to the minister’s questions and a few unasked ones, by saying "I'm sane and safe and really glad to see you. Those cultists are dead, most of them, maybe all. That's the gunfire; some people I met up with stopped them from killing any more people, probably us. Far as I'm concerned, you can do anything you want, including staying with me and them, but if you let me I'm going to keep checking to make sure this building's barricaded so the walking dead can't swarm in." She pauses and sees that (1) the minister still looks hostile, before adding, "Any other questions you'd like to ask me? Long as we're safe, I kinda like talking."
(6) The minister responds, “How many are with you, and will they tolerate a man of faith and an old man to accompany them? We are in need of shelter and a group of people who can help us. I am sure if there are any Christians in your group, they would welcome a spiritual leader. Either way, I have other skills than spiritual knowledge,” the minister gestures towards his now lowered shotgun at this particular point, then continues “and my elderly friend here is a dermatologist. That can be helpful if you or your group ever has skin trouble. In return, we ask to share your food and assist in caring for this man. I promise not to proselytize unless your group desires me too, but I do ask that wherever you go I be tolerated by non-Christians and allowed a place for a church."

(3) Grabbing a nearby umbrella, Clair sneaks to the grocery store. (5-2) One of the zombies turns towards her, but other wise Clair makes it undetected to the grocery store.
Jason dials the head of the police of the riot squad. (5) “Hey Jason, its Luis Hernandez. What’s up?”
“It’s really good to hear from you Luis, can you gather up as many officers and equipment as possible and join me at an office building at 23 Market Plaza?”
“(6) I’ll see what I can do, Jason, but the team has been scattered by the outbreak and I'm holed up at the station. I’ll do my best, but I’m not getting killed looking for police officers. I need to get to my wife and kids at home and see if they are safe, but I’ll come tomorrow. Got it?”
“Yeah sure, thanks” Jason says as he hangs up. Then he searches the bodies of the cultists. (2,2) None of them have knives or phones that he can use. Having done that, Jason takes Clair up to a window to practice shooting zombies. (1-1) She drops the pistol you give her into the street. You hand her another one, and she (1-1) drops it into the street as well.
Sighing, you grab your police radio, (2) only to find that the battery is dead. You need to find some AA batteries to replace it.
Moe, Robert, and Haruki continue upward. Like the floors below it, the 4th floor turns out to be another regular office building. (2,5) In one cubicle, the group hears a phone ringing.
Dr. Chomsky grabs the machine gun and a powerful pistol before looking at the other weapons. He doesn’t see any silencers, because Jason grabbed them all, but he sees an M-16 with a scope on it.
Jane introduces herself and the group before asking the two men to help her check the perimeter. The minister and the dermatologist both smile and reply, “Sure we’ll follow you.”

Backstory: Having grown up as an abused child who was never popular in school, Jane's clever and careful and has mostly forgiven humanity for the torment done to her when she was helpless. She did graduate from high school and is quite intelligent; she might have gotten far in college but she wanted to work instead and was promoted well in various careers for being well spoken and dedicated. She started studying martial arts while still in high school, and in a sense she's still not grown up - she matured extremely early and started behaving with the restraint needed to survive the abuse she faced by the time she was four, but in many ways parts of her are still a child and could always be. She grew up with horror and has seen some of the absolute worst that human beings can do to each other; self control and control of her immediate environment is absolutely essential to her. So long as she can control herself, all actually is right in her world, no matter what monsters confront her or what form they appear as.

Can you specify what you mean by tinkering? Also I choose items and skills from hobbies. Right now I'd give you a guitar and +1 to McGyvering. That what you want?
Turn 11:
Grabbing an assault rifle from the stockpile, Jason heads back upstairs and shows Clair how to use it in theory, guiding her through using it. (1+1) She gets confused and asks for clarification on various kinds of fire and what is the stock of the weapon. Jason searches for batteries and (3) finds a 9-volt battery inside a small timer.
Grabbing the M-16, Dr. Chomsky heads up to the roof of the building. (5) He finds it deserted. Around him, he sees empty buildings, smoke, and the occasional zombie. It’s a desolate place, with very few sounds except distant moaning, and (?) helicopter blades. Dr. Chomsky stares as he sees three military helicopters flying low over the rooftops about 3 blocks away. (?) As they fly by, a rocket takes out the rear of one and it is sent spiraling out of Dr. Chomsky’s sight. The other tow start rising as mounted machine guns open fire on the unseen street below. It seems that the city isn’t as empty as it looks.
(5) Rounding a corner and entering a cubicle, Robert finds the phone that was ringing. It is on the desk by a worker with a bullet hole in his back. Robert picks up the phone and answers it. Moe follows him.
“Hello?”
(3) “James! This is Dalmia. The things are everywhere. The kids are getting really nervous. One of them tried to break into our house. Why haven’t you answering my calls?”
“I am sorry, but I’m not James. I heard this cell phone ringing in the office building I’m holed up in and answered it.”
“Oh, then can you help me? Is my husband still alive?”
Robert looks at the dead worker. (1) His name tag reads James Owen.
“If his last name is Owen then he isn’t alive.”
There is the sound of crying on the other end.
Jane thanks the two men and then begins touring the first floor. As she patrols she pays attention to the two men following her. (?) They both look and appear to be what they said they are, She continues checking rooms for people or zombies. (2) However, she can find none. Finally she starts checking the entrances. Besides the front entrance, which looks like a large amount of zombies pressing against could break through, there is a small loading entrance in the cafeteria kitchen. (4) It is padlocked shut and it doesn’t look like it would be noticed. Heading back to the front entrance. Jane looks for stuff to put in front of it. (2) However, she sees Clair Jade walking into the grocery store and decides to wait as she will likely be back. Clair examines the store. It (3) appears to have been looted but most of the items are still there. (6) The store is also packed with zombies, (5-3) but the sheer number of zombies means that Clair is undetected.
Looking around, Haruki finds (2,2) the Joshua Tree album in another room and pockets it.
John heads to the fifth floor and (?) finds three zombies moving towards a girl in her 30s. (5-1) opening fire with his Bushmaster, he shoots one zombie in the chest, redirecting its attention.

Jason continues attempting to teach Clair. (4,6) His teaching manages to get Clair more used to gun combat. (-1 to gun combat lost) (5) Jason finds an office supplies closet with a basket full of batteries. (2+1) Grabbing a piece of paper and some tape, Dr. Chomsky places it over the bullet wounds in his leg. (+1 HP) He then goes up a floor with his rifle looking for Jason. (3) Failing to spot Jason, the doctor asks Clair Stone where he is. “He’s on this floor looking for batteries. He should be back soon.”
Moe attempts to disguise himself as a zombie. (2) He realizes he'll need blood.
(4) Robert asks Jason how can we get to her house. “I’m in an apartment block about three blocks north of your office building. Just turn left on Robertson Ave. and go to 1124 Robertson Ave. and you’ll be there.”
Robert hangs up and charges up a floor and shoots at the zombies. (3,2,1) His first shot misses but redirects a zombie’s attention, his second shot misses again, and his third shot hits the girl in the arm for (6) damage. John opens fire on the zombies. (2-1,2-1,2-1) All three shots hit the girl for 15 damage, killing her. The zombies attack John, (6,3,1) the first bites him on the shoulder for 6 damage, the second knocks him down, and the third knocks over the other two. John fires back (and at very close range he gets a bonus) (3,2,5) and shoots one in the leg, knocking him over. Robert takes the opportunity to shoot that zombie (5) and hits him in the other leg, knocking him over.

(5) Dr. Chomsky finds the nursing office in the office building. There’s a couch, a thermometer, a weigh station, some pills, and disinfectant and gloves, along with some Band-Aids. He occasionally yells out to Jason, but they are unheard.
After searching, Jason comes up with a couple of AA batteries and uses them in his radio. (3) After sending out a message he gets one response from the building next door from a security guard. He seems pretty freaked out. (5) Jason then continues to teach Clair with the gun. She’s getting better, but she’ll need more practice by herself. You hear someone on the floor calling your name.
Hearing gunfire from the floor above, Haruki heads up to help out. He sees a bloody John shooting at two zombies near two dead bodies. Then he realizes one of the bodies is actually another zombie on the ground. He springs into action. Drawing both his swords, Haruki (4+1,4+1,4+1) slices the legs off all three zombies in one slice. Emboldened, John opens fire again. (3,2,4) Hitting a zombie in the torso. Robert moves towards the closest zombie to shoot it but it attacks him first. (3) The zombie flails at Robert knocking him down, (4+1) Robert shoots a bullet into its leg, knocking it on its side.
Moe starts talking to himself about his days in the swamp. He tells himself the story of how he caught the giant croc.
Pulling out her umbrella, Clair (5) rams the end into the zombies chest keeping it away from her. Seeing Clair engaging the zombie, Jane runs out to help her, after a couple words of explanation. (1+1) However her slice was a little hasty, and missed the zombie completely. (2) The zombie moans audibly, (5+1) then a shotgun blast blows the zombies face out and it crumples to the ground. Jane turns around to see the priest reloading his shotgun. “The devil seeks to have the dead on Earth and it is the task of Christians to destroy them.” Father Sebastian says, crossing himself. (4-1) The 2 or 3 zombies on the street stop moving, and turn towards the group.

Name: Jane Andrews
Gender: Female
Age: 46
Previous occupation: Restaurant Manager
Backstory: Having grown up as an abused child who was never popular in school, Jane's clever and careful and has mostly forgiven humanity for the torment done to her when she was helpless. She did graduate from high school and is quite intelligent; she might have gotten far in college but she wanted to work instead and was promoted well in various careers for being well spoken and dedicated. She started studying martial arts while still in high school, and in a sense she's still not grown up - she matured extremely early and started behaving with the restraint needed to survive the abuse she faced by the time she was four, but in many ways parts of her are still a child and could always be. She grew up with horror and has seen some of the absolute worst that human beings can do to each other; self control and control of her immediate environment is absolutely essential to her. So long as she can control herself, all actually is right in her world, no matter what monsters confront her or what form they appear as.

Grabbing all the medical supplies in his hands, Dr. Chomsky continues looking for Jason. (1) He fails to find Jason and heads up to the third floor, where he opens an office door to see a zombie.
Jason continues talking to the guard. “Sir, I order you to grab any survivors you can and head to the building next door.”
(1) “Dude! I’m not going into that street. Those zombies will rip me to pieces. And you shouldn’t give me orders. I’ve been in the force for 20 years. You sound like you’re a rookie!”
Sighing, you ask Clair to open fire on the zombies. (1) She drops the gun into the street.
(6+1,3+1,2+1) Robert headshots a zombie, and gets a torso shot in on a second one. (2+1,3+1,) John shoots the third in the torso. (5+2, 5+2) Haruki decapitates the last two zombies in one move.
Clair heads back into the building. An assault rifle falls to the ground behind her and gets picked up by the priest along with a pistol. Jane follows Clair back in, the priest following (the dermatologist stayed inside). She looks for stuff to barricade the entryway, (2) and fails to find anything. “Anyone want to help me barricade the doors?”
(4) The priest decides to help out with the barricade. (5) Grabbing a table from another room, he drags it across the entrance.
