I've been craving a zombie apocalypse roleplay. Soooooo this a basically a zombie apocalypse role-play. Here's the deal;
-The infected aren't slow, shuffling zombies. They can run, climb and jump just like we can.
-They have all the senses we do. They can see, smell and hear us.
-At night all of their senses increase. They can see in the dark, sniff you out much better, and have an increased sense of smell. They are also much stronger and more aggressive at night.
-While zombies will kill and eat animals, animals can not and will not turn into zombies.
-Food and water is harder to find now, and while some plumbing systems still work, all water from taps and such is infected. Bottled water and rain water is uninfected.
-Guns and ammo are much rarer now and will be very hard to find. I don't want your character running around with an AK-47, a sniper, an RPG etc. all at the same time. Make it believable. Sure, your character can have an assault rifle, but how would he/she have got it? Is it in good condition? How much ammo do you have? Things like pistols and hunting rifles will be more common.
-Small things can kill. Illnesses that we wouldn't worry about now would be lethal unless treated, small wounds could get infected and kill you. Think about things like that.

I haven't decided which country or area it will be set, so suggestions would be nice.
Not sure if I should control all the zombies or not yet either.
Also, I've never GM'd before so don't hurt me! Lol.

So, would anybody be interested?

Already said so, but why not say it again. I'm interested. Hopefully it will get enough peeps to start.

Sounds like fun. Count me in :)

Awesome guys (:

I've not done a zombie RP yet but this sounds like fun, I'll jump in if possible!

Of course. I think I'll wait a few more hours for somebody else, if nobody joins I'll set up an OOC anyway (:

Interested ^^

Well that was fast xD I'll get on an ooc now.

Any suggestions for the city we should be in, or for anything in general?

I'm interested too! Also, the city could be somewhere iconic, like New York. (Or if you're a limey like me that would be London xD)

Welcome (:
New York or London would work fine! I was born and raised in London xD

Apocalypse RPs tend to be set in America, so London would be a good change

Plus I live there, so my character can get a bonus advantage muaha

Count me in. I am always up for a good zombie RP.

@BilboTheGreat

America would do great as usual, even though i'm not from there myself.

Though, if you want things to be more challenging. I'd suggest a country with a dense population. Such as The Netherlands or Belgium, they are surrounded by areas also highly populated and furthermore, the lack of firearms amongst the general population makes thing even more of a challenge.

@Sven the Silent

That's a good idea, actually. Although I suppose that could work for London too, since the way that Britain collapsed was through a huge amount of migrants from everywhere getting in.

@BilboTheGreat

Fair point, but what I mean with dense is. The Netherlands has 17,000,000 million people. The largest city in The Netherlands holds 800,000 people. There are many, many towns, villages and cities all around the country and not exactly far apart from eachother either. Bordering nations such as Belgium and Germany have the same issue, though are a little less dense. Yet most of Germany's population is focused in the West, combined with that of Belgium's and that of The Netherlands. It would be a rather hostile and unforgiving place.

With England i'd imagine things are a bit more sparse, though it's impossible to know how many refugee camps were set up and where. But I do certainly imagine huge quantaties of new folk to be around.

@Sven the Silent I see your point, that actually sounds good. Unless anybody has any objections, I'm going to look at cities in the Netherlands.

@BilboTheGreat
If this is indeed the course of action everyone would agree with, then you can always ask me any question you may have. I'm from The Netherlands myself.

I think I'm going to go with Amsterdam.

@BilboTheGreat
Amsterdam is part of what we call "De Randstad" an even more densly concentrated part of my country that houses seven million people of the seventeen million population. If it has been two years since the outbreak I would imagine that people have fled to the islands north of the Frisian coast, or the northern provinces in general. Seeing as they were more sparesly populated. Hence less infected compared to the "Randstad."

But for a starting point it can work, sure.

Here's the OOC guys! roleplayerguild.com/topics/91421-the-e..
