Title: Roll for zombie apocalypse!
Post by: spazyak on June 12, 2015, 01:23:55 pm
You are in a zombie Apocalypse, it has been approximately 2 months since the government set up safe zones and declared martial law. So far people have been rioting and discontent. Rumors of separatist groups are in the wind.

You can play this as a survivor who is in a small group that is currently trying to get to a safe zone a couple days travel away in the state of Michigan. You are currently in Indiana.
When you are bit you become a zombie and can attempt to hunt down other players and NPCs for four turns before becoming an NPC yourself.

Zombies keep the traits and such but slowly rot away if they do not eat. They are also tougher and more durable. When playing a zombie, your goals should be to kill, eat, survive. .

This would be more interesting to people if the op were not a tad bit crude. I could redesign it for you if you would like.

thanks for making this char sheet a lot cleaner and easier to understand. I am still new to this and I was kinda trying to rush this out before I had time to edit it. The version I made was very rough.

As you all know you are currently traveling from the city, you managed to find a day's worth of food and water. You also managed to scavenge some spare spark plugs and a radiator for your truck. After traveling for what can only be assumed to be 20 minutes you come across an abandoned military road block
status:
food - 5 days per person
water- 5 days per person
fuel- 7/10 ( when this goes to zero you run out of fuel.)

guess I'm going to update now.
Investigate road block.

Maybe you could roll for me finding food, eheheh
It is a military road block with some pylons blocking the road leading up to a fence and a check point. there are two military jeeps in front with mini-guns on top. In one of the turrets there is a dead body with no face and guts everywhere. There are lots of vehicles abandoned in front of the road block. A machine gun on the road block looks used and has a eaten corpse lying next to it. Signs of a great fight are apparent.
It appears that there is a gate in the center of the check point with a structure built around it. On top of the structure are two guard towers that appear to be hastily built.
One zombie with only one arm and no legs reaches out to you making an almost pitiful growl.
 3+1 you find a military grade MRE. You also find a corpse.
 (6-1, 6) that corpse in military gear just grabbed you and is trying to bite you ,but you manage to barely hold it off.


Help Bob with investigating the road block.
While you walk through the abandoned military check point you
(1-1, yah no) to see the zombie charging you.
4 vs 5+1 (surprise attack) it grabs you and starts clawing you. you are scratched and battered, but not dead or bit.
 4 vs 3. you and push the emancipated  zombie off of you and sprint away. You hear a yelp and follow it, coming accosted the tackled Bob who is tussling with a zombie.
3 vs 1. You beat the zombie to death with your hard covered Oprah Winfrey Hard cover. 

The other zombie follows you

Anyway, you should make rolls for exploration. I mean, you give us general information of a place, then you roll for exploration, and since i have my food finder trait you make an extra roll to see if i find food, without giving me a bonus.

Ex:
You find yourself in the abandoned house. It's all dusty and old, and there is scrap all around.
(5) You find gesus under a loose wood plank! He gives you superpowers!
(1) You dont find any food, and you fall on the ground headfirst and you die.



Also, you could also make rolls for other stuff. There is a trapped zombie: Roll for us to notice it: (2) you dont notice it, but it (2) doesn't either.

You guys can RP when ever you wish. I will add RP sections when you run into other Humans.
As for punctuation, what am I doing wrong (never was good with it)?

I will stay on the military truck, and wipeout on the turret! Make sure there are fuel and bullets!
4. You find that the doors are locked but you are able to climb. up a ladder on the back of it but it brakes.
6. You find a M16 with a clip containing 9 bullets. You also find a Zombie.
Said zombie is crawling towards you and is getting up.

6 vs 2 You kick it in the stomach and it stab it in the eye killing it. it topples over you and you fall off the truck.

4. You manage to land fairly well and are alive and uninjured.
you are now on the other side of the road block.

There are a couple military tents and a some zombies wearing military gear. Some other zombies are wearing medical scrubs and even a couple are regular civilians.

None of them manage to see or hear you and you duck behind some debris.




"Somebody, Help!"
Brisk walk away from the zombie.
2. You attempt to briskly walk away from the zombie but fail.

6 vs 2 The Zombie grabs you forcing you to the ground and starts om-nom-noming you.  You take 5 damage and your left arm is bitten to the bone and bleeding heavily.

6 vs 2 You push the zombie off of you and beat it to death with your book. In the process you back into a zombie that is stuck between two crashed cars.

2 vs 6 You pull your arm away so hard you rip off it's arm.

Nidilap:
you here screaming and fighting and sprint out with your machete raised.
You see a military check point and sever cars. In one car you can see person slumped over the dash board. All around you you see dead zombies and people. One car looks as though it was set fire.

1. You sprint towards the screaming only to have a zombie crawling on the ground trip you.

5 vs 2. You roll over and cop off its arm before finishing it by smashing it's head against a car.

You get up and continue printing towards the scream and you see  Janet ripping the arm off of a zombie stuck between a two cars. Her left arm hangs limply and is dripping with blood.

3. You hear a zombie behind you, but you are to late to stop it from attacking you
 
1 vs 6 You easily parry its attack and even are able to kill it. You in the process back up into car. you hear the sound of glass being banged upon and cracking behind you...

Rip my arm off.
1. You not only fail to rip off your arm, you bandage it up and make a tourniquet above the wound,. Of course you're still screwed and it will get gangrenous the wound from being so deep, but you will still live another round as a human.

You hear lots of gun fire coming from the other side of the Check point.

6-1. You see zombies are starting to walk towards you And Ned. They seem to be heading towards the Check point.


Climb back on the military truck. Grab M16. Use knife to sneakily kill zombies one by one. If they see me, use M16.

3. You grab the M16 but in the process make some noise attracting the zombies around me.
5 vs 4. You hop down from the truck and spin around striking a zombie with the butt of your gun killing him.
4 you drop into a sneak and move around. It appears that the other zombies are shambling towards the truck.

6 vs 5, 4 , 1, 4, 6,  2 You open fire on the group and strike one in the knees causing it to drop down onto the ground and start crawling at  you.
The next one you fire at gets shot in the head and drops down dead.
One gets hit directly in the neck fracturing the spine leaving it thrashing around before dying.
The next one gets hit in throat, but not the spine, causing it to make gurgling noises before tripping on a dead corpse and getting caught up.
One bullet bounces off the helmet with a dull pting noise.
You shoot at the last zombie and it falls dead.
2 vs 3 You go to stop on the crawler's head but it instead grabs your boot and starts munching on it, luckily your fine and just kick it off.


Nidilap (I am just going to play him till he comes back)
You back away from the car and see a zombie struggling to even make a scratch on the window.
You turn around and see that Janet is looking very pale and sickly, but her bleeding has stopped. 

You see Bob climb up something on the other side of the check point and hop back down

You hear lots of gun fire coming from the other side of the Check point

You hear lots of growling and turn around to see that in front of and all around you there are zombies heading towards the check point.

Loot.
5. You find several clips of ammoe for your M16 and a combat knife, you grab a bullet proof jacket from a dead zombie. 
4+1 You find a couple MRE's and a water bottle.

Sacrifice myself for the rest of the group.
You sprint out there screaming and yelling before tripping and dieing in the most painful way  possible as a piece of metal bar pierces your gut and your stomach leaks out. Zombies start approaching you.
 
Moments late your body starts jerking about and pulls itself off the metal. limping on a hurt leg you go towards the check point following some movement you saw.


Nidilap
6+1. YOu salute Janet before rushing over. YOu jump and scramble up and over the check point falling onto a jeep before more-or-less bouncing off and right next to bob.
