I'm pretty sure Error meant that the power's down for good.

Sort of my fault I guess, since he asked for a summary - and I obliged but failed to mention that electricity + water still works XD

Edit:

We've been shooting ourselves in the knee ever since the RP started tbh XD

You never said it was down either so no, doesn't really count as your fault. He either assumed or decided he wanted it that way. And yes, I'm annoyed =_=", I spent time on post elaborating how the apartment would be a good safe haven and the post right after goes "shitz guys, powers out for the count, watafak u guys doin' with guns".

And yes, we've been shooting ourselves in the knees since the RP started. Literally doing everything that people should not be doing during an zombie apocalypse.

I think there is still power and water in the city, not just in this apartment.

I think that the apartment next to us would have power and water, since power and water plants don't shut down themselves.

Am I going to assume that everyone checked themselves for signs of injuries/bite - and that no one's up for the task to tie up some loose ends? XD

Juuuuust to make sure I haven't missed anything (since I binge read the entire IC)
The zombies only consist of Stage I and II currently, and the virus can cross the species barrier.
Most characters are on the first landing, with zombies pouring into the lobby and up the stairs, with even more outside coming in. For now, a barricade is preventing the Zed from getting any farther.
A few? characters are holed up in their room.

Also--if electricity works, shouldn't the elevator be pretty dangerous? It's a direct link to the lobby. The lobby that is currently overrun by the undead.

Just where is everyone? Mostly directly behind the barricade on the second floor, yes?

Supplementing Mattie_'s questions:
How many floors are there in the apartment building?
What are the surrounding buildings?
What is the apartment layout?
Is there running water? Is there electricity and gas? And where is the source located for those?
And would there be anything against two characters living in the same apartment?
(My character, by nature, would not be able to handle herself alone when crisis strikes.)

@Mattie_ Yas you've got it right!

---

On a separate note, I don't think most would have the benefit of actually packing anything at this point, or even taking a breather - I'm imagining that every post is within a span of 1-5 minutes, maybe less - considering that a horde is on its way. Any more delays by doing some personal things like going back to their respective rooms and grabbing essentials would've resulted in the horde actually tearing down the makeshift barricade on the ground floor.

I'm icky about things in terms of chronological sense D; Soz if I'm annoying for bringing this up @@

Okay folks, you may now post.

To clarify a few things:

It's 10PM at night.

The streets are chaos.

The national guard has quarantined the city, ruling out an exit plan -- for now.

There are people in the apartment building who are unaccounted for.

The building has yet to be barricaded.

The building has seven floors, with 6 apartments per floor.

Everyone starts in the lobby, crowded around the TV.

EDIT: Oh, and electricity + water are still working.


@IceSolstice this should answer your questions. But at the time being, @error went ahead and cut off power, with @rare taking out water XD

Regarding having 2 characters, you might wanna refer to the opening OOC post about Alts. Only the GM can give you the final answer to that question :)

;-; I totally did not anticipate things to go south this fast. Oh well, my starting gear wasn't even that useful to be honest. Just that, I'm a bit disheartened to part with the Apartment D; AND my character's private stash of instant noodles! Every asian needs to have instant noodles, if not rice!

Oh, Ice's character will be rooming with mine.

What time would you say the news reports detailing the spread of the virus began? Paranoid people would start preparing earlier.

(I’m guessing we can start in our apartments, since starting in the lobby is literally impossible. A catch-up post is possible I guess, but the past has already happened.)

Ah, then you'll simply have to wait for the GM to give yours a read. There's nothing really wrong with that at this point :)

The city is starting to break down. Emergency services, such as the police and the fire brigade, are either being overwhelmed or are deserting their posts. It has been a few days since the city first encountered an outbreak.


I asked a similar question, this is what I got from the GM. I suppose some time around 9-10pm is when the panic spreads. Few days ago is when the outbreak first began with minimal coverage. Maybe I'm wrong, but that's what I'm assuming it to be XD

We can share our food together, and we can have a good instant noodles meal with preserved canned food. :P
Oh, and look more Asian characters!
