[OOC] The Last Survivors

[Pewpewpikachu]

Ok! Everything is fixed yay!

@Pewpewpikachu Posted for Kyu-Ri. You might want to set the RP as Full too.

Kinda feel like I left you in a bad spot to the point where you can't do much. If needed I can go again if you want. 😁

No worries; I'll see what I can do first. I've been focusing on writing out a few character sheets for a reboot of an RP I was previously in, so I haven't got around to posting yet.

[Pewpewpikachu]

Not a problem! Just thought I would leave that option open to you.

[Carlyle]

@Pewpewpikachu I'll have a post in the next few hours or tomorrow whenever I wake up.

[Pewpewpikachu]

Alright

[Carlyle]

@Pewpewpikachu Quick question: did you have a place in mind where the RP happens, as in a certain city like Chicago or somewhere else? I was curious in case the question would ever come up within the RP. It's fine with me if you'd rather this RP be in a made-up city, since it allows us to be a bit more creative with our storytelling.

[Pewpewpikachu]

I originally thought of using an actual city but it would be hard to navigate a City so we should probably just use a made-up city. I'll give you the honor of naming it if it ever comes up, also this is set 5 years after the outbreak started in case it ever came up.

Roger that!

I'm considering making an info dump for the bandits, should we make them an integral part of the story. It could be an interesting story arc for the roleplay.

Continuing on with that idea, I was thinking of taking the name "Los Santos" from GTA. Perhaps the bandit gang could be primarily Mexican or some sort of South/Central American nationality.

[Pewpewpikachu]

Lol, I love GTA! Yeah let's do it you're right it would be interesting for the roleplay 😃

Right, I'll work on it when I can.

[Pewpewpikachu]

Excellent. Nice work :) it got my creative juices going!

@Pewpewpikachu Glad you like it. Now, a moment ago, there was something that caught my interest. The Last of Us wiki says the infection began in late September 2013, and you said that we are five years from when the infection first spread throughout the world. However, if it is five years since then, that would put our characters at 15 and 17, respectively, when the infection began. This raises an issue in regards of the occupation section in the character sheet, as I don't think either of our characters would have a job at that time frame, unless they had a work permit (or the equivalent of whatever permit allows minors to work). It'd have to be at least a year or so for the infected to develop into full-fledged clickers, but I was curious as to what you thought.

[Pewpewpikachu]

I was playing the game last week and didn't remember the date it's not like it’s life and death (right? Lol) we can just scrap it or just push the date up a bit so our characters will be able to have jobs. I don't care we can do whatever. I just realized we should both give our characters gas masks for the spores (I don’t remember if we gave our characters gas masks)

@Pewpewpikachu

We could push the date back 2-3 years. We wouldn't have access to the Bloaters (the big guys that fling fungi things at you), but the clickers would at least exist by then, and it would work out in our favor by allowing our characters to be old enough.

As for the gas masks, neither of us added one to our inventory. I figured the average civilian probably doesn't have one, but since its been a few years into the apocalypse, I suppose they could snag one from some industrial store or an abandoned military checkpoint.

[Carlyle]

@Pewpewpikachu I'll have a post up tonight. I didn't have internet for most of yesterday, so I couldn't post until rather late at night.

[Pewpewpikachu]

No worries :) I’m stuck at work late today anyway

[Pewpewpikachu]

Yay new post by me! Sorry for being gone I took a little trip out of town for some much needed fun :).
