[OOC] The Walking Dead - Cold Trails

[JustAnna]

So, this is a WIP right now, but you can feel free to add your characters. I want the basic format for the character sheets, like a normal ZA RP. Remove the parenthesis and be specific as possible, but don't give too much detail about your character and the way they act. This always changes, and is not necessary. The Roleplay is taking place in Southern Georgia. So, keep that in mind as well, although your characters don't have to be from the area. Plenty of characters in the show ended up in Georgia, but came from other places around the U.S. Name: Age: Photo (no anime allowed...sketches must be hyper realistic): Weapons: Equipment: Brief bio (include what they did before the outbreak, skills they have, and basic things that would make them the way they are to the other characters, but not too much detail): Personality Strengths: Personality Weaknesses: And I will work on this...while you work on that :D

I was as specific as possible, to the point of modifying the character sheet to increase specificness. I hope it fits what you're after.

[JustAnna]

I think it looks pretty good. It's a pretty well known fact around our RPs (Shelton and I) that you would need some sort of visual for your character, besides just the description. I'm not going to sit and like fight over it, since there have been people in the past that were just really serious about not having a pic for their character, but it helps for when he's not wearing his mask and stuff. In short. I'm not going to make you have one, but I would like for you to. :)

@AnnaBeth

Understood. I'll see what I can do. Update: This has now been sorted. You'll find the picture above the physical description details. Second Update: Sorry, I forgot to ask, did you mean a portrait (i.e just the face) or a full body shot? Let me know if it's the latter, and I'll see if I can find something.

@TRF

Face is fine. :) We just like to see what the character looks like for conversations and stuff.

[Nallore]

I'll get a character up sometime tonight.

[Captain Shelton]

Greetings all, tis I, Le Capitan! I am alive and have returned from my roleplaying hiatus. So yeah,

[Revans Exile]

@AnnaBeth I have seen several ZA RPs that had something against military, police, or survivalist (Burt Gummer from the Tremors file and tv franchise would be the extreme version) backgrounds pre-ZA. Usually limited to one or two at a time. Will the same be done here? Not sure what kind of character I will make, just want to know.

[JustAnna]

I would like military characters to be limited, but they aren't banned or anything (Shelton usually plays military). Just be believable, and run it by me first (which you just did). :)

[Sweedishdelight]

I made two characters, I hope that's okay! Let me know if anything needs changing :)

[Justice200]

May i join?

[JustAnna]

I posted two as well. So, that's fine. I would like our maximum characters per person to be two, for now, though.

[Sweedishdelight]

Sweet, sounds good.

[Sweedishdelight]

Nvm :P

[JustAnna]

Actually, I'm switching that to three characters, as long as you can keep up with them, and there is only two main characters. Basically, you're allowed to have one that's almost an NPC. The reason I say this, is because sometimes in the beginnings of these types of RPs, it takes a bit to get things really started, and your characters may be the only people you're connecting with. And for anyone asking if it's still open, yes. We will accept a few more characters.

[WilsonTurner]

I claim a spot! my somewhat redneck guy!

[WilsonTurner]

Is my character okay? As usual, I have no idea what I'm doing when I start. I just took a picture and made a story around it.

[Revans Exile]

I'm tweaking & modifying some previous characters. Have them posted soon.

[Captain Shelton]

@WilsonTurner Not really. Bio seems a bit much and not too believable, like I couldn't imagine meeting this guy for real and talking to him. And his outfit and gear and all are more suited for late in the apocalypse, this is like, two weeks in.

[Darkraven]

Can I reuse this guy? Because I'm a little bored of an all-American cast: http://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/77103-days-gone-by-a-zombie-roleplay/char#post-2434086 EDIT: But of course, I will tweak it to fit the Walking Dead universe. Which also means putting in some connections. For one thing, in the webisode 'Cold Storage', it was mentioned that China had a handle on the situation. Not hard to imagine that Japan do too. Also, imagine where Michonne got her sword? I wonder if it had something to do with one of Hisashi's fallen comrade?
