The Walking Dead is a comic, television, and video game series that generally focus on groups of survivors living in the “zombie apocalypse,” a setting where the living members of humanity are outnumbered by the living dead. The society of old has collapsed and what remains of humanity fight to make the most of what remains.
This RP would have little to do with the stories or the characters of the established franchise and more to do with name recognition and the use of the specific rules of that universe, such as that all of those who die without an injury to their brain reanimate no matter what and that the use of the word “zombie” is largely nonexistent. I am willing to drop TWD from the RP's premise if people desire but I don't think it'll really make a difference!
The initial setting for the roleplay would be set in Fort Wayne, Indiana. The RP would take place 18 months into the apocalypse where a community has sprouted up and secured itself for the last couple of months. The community, named “Faith” after the Presbyterian church it’s situated around, is run by a male/female couple and houses about 40-50 people. I have a basic plotline in mind but obviously these types of RPs are more about the characters and their interactions, so nothing is incredibly set in stone. Ideas and input on plot or characters now or down the line is more than welcome.
I'm ready to drop the OOC already actually, just wanted to drum up some interest and see who stops by. Thanks :)
