For a year or so, the living have managed to outsmart the walking dead. The efforts of celebrant Amy Emmerson, who was strong enough to fight and kind enough to care for others, united a community of a few hundred. Her knowledge of ceremony, cooking and comforting others has given her fellow survivors the hope needed to keep fighting in a dangerous world. During one of her excursions, a zombie bit her hand, but she hid it from her companions, you. After regrouping in her farmhouse, you understand that you'll need to take her place as the leader of her small community. Can you survive the onslaught of the dead, fading hope, shrinking stockpile and a community divided over new leadership?

Bite is a zombie RP from the view of the leaders of a greater community of survivors. It will feature politics and a burgeoning culture, rather than the "heroic fantasy" more common in this style of RP.

Here's the character sheet:

Satiety: Fed and hydrated

I intend to hear interest from 2-5 players, before starting the main thread. I don't expect a filled character sheet, although I would appreciate it.

This sounds interesting! What area is it based in? Which type of "zombies" are they; fast, slow, mutated, etc?

I've got a few questions that I'm sure would/could be answered in an OOC if it makes it to that point! But color me interested!

The zombies are of the slow sort. However, they are stronger than they were before their death, and it seems as if their numbers keep growing, even though there aren't any more people to turn. In addition, slightly different kinds of zombies have been spotted, slightly faster than the others, who also use cover effectively.

Sounds interesting

@JELDare In your view, how long should I keep the interest check open? I don't have a lot of experience GMing on this forum.

Well the interest check should be up until either one of two criteria is met: you achieve the minimum number of people needed, or you get so bored and are itching for the RP.
