[OOC] 🧚🏻‍♀️ The Walking Dead - Year 6 Part 1

Those Evil Overlord Rules You Have To Put Up With:

---------

--------- * Rules are enforced and you will be removed if you break them - they may seem strict and harsh but they are there for a reason: previous problem causers. Will work with you within reason but special treatment is not granted. Gm is an Evil Goddess who has the final say on all matters. This is the Gm's house, entering means you are agreeing to be be a good guest and follow the rules. If you are unable, seek RP elsewhere. Gm will work with Rpers and loves to work in new things to help Rpers with personal story arcs: Gm will not cater to you. Rpers will be kicked if they break any rules, don't check egos at the door, cause problems in the group, are rude or insulting, etc. No Spoilers - seriously, it just ruins the funs. Plus half the time the Gm don't even know what will happen since it depends heavily on the rpers/characters/dice rolls. If removed from RP your character becomes property of the RP and LLA to toy and play with as she sees fit. When in doubt, have a question, if you need help, can't get coding right, don't know what to do, want to try something new, need more information, ETC. - MESSAGE THE GM!

• General Rules:
  • The world and all Main NPC's are controlled by the GM: weather, what is around, so forth and so on.
  • All actions using skills must be a called action and will require a GM check to see what the outcome is: for more information check Skills and CS instructions. Depending on the situation, this can be done before you post via pm or after you post a called action in the next world narrative.
  • All Forum RP rules apply. No meta-gaming, auto-hitting, bunnying, god-modding, etc.
  • Keep Romance to PG-13 or even PG in IC if you are unsure. Fade to black when needed. This Rp discourages pre-started/forced couples.
  • Keep IC and OOC separate. No OOC in the IC. All issues are to be taken to PM. Got a problem with another Rper - take it to them first to try to work it out. If you can't, then bring it to me - Privately.
  • This Rp will cross certain lines. Foul language/gore/disturbing situations will/do/have happened- no restrictions. This includes all types of 'ism's: Please remember that what happens in RP is just that: RP. GM does not agree with 'ism's but will not restrict the characters personalities.
• Joining The RP:
  
  • Filling out CS does not equal acceptance, spots are not first come first served. Gm reserves the right to deny anyone for any reason at anytime.
  • Please note if you are approved you will have to join Lady A's Discord Chat and check it daily and register on a private forum.
  • CS Code provided below must be used.
  • You may submit your CS for approval in the OOC or via PM. Only GM approved CS's are allowed in CS Tab. Once a Cs is approved, you may only edit it with GM approval.
  • When filling out your CS, change it to a color code currently not in use. Do not use Red/Gold/White/RP Color - gets confusing. Do not use dark shades - makes it hard to read.
  • Character images are not required but are encouraged. Check PC's, NPC's, and Grids starting on page 5 to ensure you aren't using one that is already taken or been used.
  • CS's will be added to, updated, and changed as needed over time.
• Posting Habits:
  • 2 well developed paragraphs per post, roughly 250 words, is the minimal.
  • No editing posts without Gm approval. If the Gm calls for an edit due to an issue that is your permission edit.
  • Must IC post once every 7 days. If your counter hits day 8, you are removed from RP.
  • Minimal 2 posts between your last unless special circumstance arises - Ask GM if unsure.
  • Know your personal posting limitations before applying to join. Extensions are granted but only once in a while and must be requested before counter is up! If you need to leave for an extended period of time, contact the GM to shelve your character for a hiatus: 1 per year. Don't need to know why. We all have a life - if you join this Rp becomes part of that. See it through.
  • When posting use the universal header. Images are not required: Any image used must be under 300 pxl high. No font-meme stuff, added quotes, etc. Update location and skills as they change, things will be added as needed: Jobs/Weapons/Etc.
  • Don't tag people in your IC posts and don't copy what they have said to put in your post.
  • Each IC post must be posted on RPG and the private forum: blame RPG crashes. No extra time granted when RPG goes down - post on SI, will move over later.
  • If you are collabing, the counter is off which ever Rpers is highest. Inform GM if you are going to collab.
• The Walking Dead RP Specific Rules:
  
  • This is an RP based on The Walking Dead TV Show/Comics (Fear The Walking Dead is NOT canon here.)
  • You may not use face claims from the series or the comics, or characters. Nor may they have run across those from the series/comics, heard rumors, etc.
  • There is no cure for Walkers, and before the outbreak one hadn't even heard of walkers. (Zombies is not a word known in this universe so don't use it.).
  • All weapons/music/pop-culture/technology/etc. must be circa 2006 and earlier.
  • This is an RP about dead things walking and people trying to survive right? So yeah, you're gonna die, everyone does eventually. Refer to Master Death List for Examples.
  • Keep your Cs's real people. Yeah we got Walkers but everything else needs to be in the realm of reality. Skills should fit background.
  • You may start out with one character only. More may be brought in as trust and reliability are established. Only long term well established Rpers in TWD are allowed to use personal NPC's.
  • This is a character driven Rp. It is up to you to find things for your character to do. The Walkers are just the background, the characters and their interactions are the RP. GM will provide the world, the rest if up to the RPer
  • We currently are NOT accepting the following character types: Medical/Law Enforcement/Military/Security/Famous

----------------------- ---------

--------- --------- Rules can and will change as needed. In the end, doesn't matter what is or isn't listed here - What the Gm says is law. Hopefully we can keep from needing more. Most things are common sense and common courtesy. Don't be an ass, don't try to find loop holes, get along with others, accept when you get called out and fix things, roll with it, keep IC and OOC separate, and have fun. If you do this, so will I and everything will be fine. If you don't like this, then just go Rp in another topic or open your own. There are plenty of Rpers and GMs out there, none of us have to put up with anyone or anything we don't want to and we all need a break from each other from time to time. If you can't handle that, I wish you luck elsewhere. If you can, then welcome, I look forward to Rping with you.

𝚃𝚑𝚎 𝚆𝚊𝚕𝚔𝚒𝚗𝚐 𝙳𝚎𝚊𝚍: 𝚈𝚎𝚊𝚛 6 𝙿𝚊𝚛𝚝 1 "Are we cursed? Perhaps. Perhaps those of us that are alive are cursed to forever regret our choices." - The General On Surviving This Long ☠ Premise ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ The Walking Dead RP is loosely based on TWD TV series and Comic books. A post-apocalyptic horror survival RP that features long and short term survivors of the Outbreak. All trying to stay alive and even thrive under the constant threat of what are known in this RP as Walkers. Walkers are driven by one need and one need alone: to feed off live flesh. They shamble, run, sometimes climb towards anything that draws their attention: noise, smells, lights. At first people believed the only way to be infected was to be bitten or scratched by a Walker, it was later figured out that all humans carried the mutation that caused the changed and anyone who died would turn. Being bit of scratched simply caused a fever that brought on a death within three days. No cures. Best bet if bit just cut off the limb if possible. Even then, you might not survive. Only way to kill a Walker? Kill the brain stem. We are now six years and then some into post-shitstorm and it isn't easier to survive. In fact in many ways each day that passes, things only get harder. With the fall of humanity and modern conveniences our Survivors face more problems than just the dead trying to turn them into an all you can eat buffet. Supplies can run low, bullets run out, heat and cold can kill, disease still runs rampant, and Humans themselves can be the true monsters out there. People will do whatever they can to survive. When you are facing down life and death, you can even become your own worst enemy. Some have survived this long because of strength, others because of their smarts, some just pure dumb luck. How will you survive? Let's find out. ☠ Character Sheet ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ The character sheet does seem a little intimidating and confusing. It isn't near as bad as it seems. There are instructions provided in the CS and below but most of it is rather self explanatory; I just went ahead and wrote out instructions to try to clarify if it was needed or someone was half asleep filling in a CS. Make sure to read the rules above, and everything below before filling this out. If anything isn't clear or you have questions, do ask. (But read first, cause if the answer is there I will say "read again.") Skills must be picked from the provided skills list, ability scores and skill base scores cannot be filled in without getting them from the GM. Once you get numbers from the GM for your abilities, that is the only set you will get. If you scrap the character you take your numbers to the next until you make a character you RP with them. (Refer to abilities and skills section for more details) Please note, if you are entering the RP at this point your character has no knowledge of the current camps or locations in this Rp and is coming in blind with no character relations with current or past PC's. Do not write up a Cs saying you do because it will be AUTO Denied. If you have questions ask the GM before even starting. * People with shelved characters prior to this update - they are no longer approved. You have to go back through the approval process from the beginning due to the massive overhaul to the Rp, CS, and Rules. Character Sheet Instructions Color Code: Change the color code to one not in use. Also, do not use Red/Gold/RP Color - gets confusing. And do not use dark shades for your color code - makes it hard to read. This will be your characters header code, txt speech code, etc. Name Area: Characters full name including title if they have one. Below that you can include a quote from the character or something they say a lot, and where it was said or why they say it. (Only the name is required, the rest is optional.) Looking Inside: Delving into the characters mind. How do they think and feel. Their overall general perception of the world and people. One or two well developed paragraphs that show how a character thinks. Aim for a well rounded character with depth, and one you can realistically Rp and stay in character with. A Brief History: This section is divided into 3 sections. Pre-Outbreak, Post-Outbreak, and Since Entering RP. Both Pre and Post Outbreak are your characters history up until they enter the RP. Under Pre-Outbreak, is divided into 2 sections: Growing up (birth to 18) and Adulting (19+). Each need 1 well developed paragraph. Include things like parents, birth place, siblings, what life was like, what they enjoyed, places they went, etc. IF they were 18 or under at the time of the outbreak omit the Adulting section. Post-Outbreak, is also divided into 2 sections: First Walker Encounter & Those First Years. Minimal 1 well developed paragraphs per section but for the first years I would recommend a paragraph per year minimal to give you some idea of what your character has been through and where they have been. Your first walker encounter is a great chance to write an actual post for your character and see how they work. Since Entering RP: This only needs to be done if you are already part of the RP or are updating your CS as we go. How you divide this up is up to you. Situations that stick out, location, etc. A way for you to remember important moments or locations for your character over time. Relations: You may keep this area blank unless or until your character starts interacting with other PC's or NPC's in the RP. Major relations are for those that had massive impact with a character. Minor are those with less. You don't need to worry about everyone you talk to or meet in the RP. Just those that mean something, good or bad. Not required but recommended to those that have been in the RP a while to keep track of things about the relations. (Can set this up however you want, I just have examples in place for reference.) Keep section unfilled if not using currently. Image: I put an image there for you to know the size. You don't have to use an image but I do recommend it. (I do videos and if I don't have an FC to work with for your character I can't include them.) - Keep the images 200x200 so the coding remains pretty. Need something resized? Just send it to me and I can for you or you can use anything from MS paint to an online editor like Pixlr. Make sure the Face Claim is not one already in use or that has been used in this RP before. Arrow Sections: Gender, age, etc. - Those are pretty self explanatory. Keep it direct, simple, quick reference. Psychology: This is divided into three sections. Positive Traits is your characters 3 main good traits, in order of strongest to least. Same goes for Negative Traits. You want to think of a single word. Need help with the right word? Check here: Personality Trait List Now for fears. 1 Fear, 1 Phobia that leaves your character frozen, wanting to piss themselves. We are omitting things like "Afraid to be alone" or "afraid to be loved" - no ideas. Heights, snakes, spiders, clowns, storms, etc. These aren't things they will be able to overcome easily. No Walkers. (Seriously, if your characters phobia is a Walker, they wouldn't have been able to run to safety once, lol) Abilities: Basic human attributes. These are used as a base for a characters skills and their general physical and mental potential. The minimal in any stat is a 1, the Max is a 40. (Average human would have 20's across the board) How do you get these numbers? Contact the GM and she will send you an image of your Abilities Roll Results. (Each skill gets an random total of 4d10's). You will have 8 numbers to pick from and assign 1 each to the stats below. Strength (Str): A characters strength. It is a measure of the physical power of a character's body, the ability to life heavy objects, bend metal bars, arm wrestle, etc. Dexterity (Dex): A characters dexterity. It measures a characters physical coordination, balance, agility, speed, and ability to perform complex hand movements. Fitness (Fit): A characters fitness. It is the measure of a characters health and stamina. How healthy a character is and how resistant they are to disease and injury. Intellect (Int): A characters intellect. It is a measure of the character intelligence, ability to learn new things, and a grasp of complex information. (It has nothing to do with a characters common sense: that is you. It also has nothing to do with knowledge: that is skill base.) Will Power (Will): A characters willpower. It is a measure of a characters determination, willpower, and mostly their self-control. Perception (Per): A character perception. It is a measure of the characters ability to observe their surrounding. It is the ability to notice and interpret sensory input: the five senses. It cannot be used to determine someone's intentions. Attractiveness (Att): A characters attractiveness. This is a measure of a characters physical beauty and appeal to those who are attracted to their sex. This has nothing to do with personality: the Rper is responsible for that. Luck: A characters general luck. This is a measure of fate, good fortune, and chance of operating in favor of a character. Languages: All characters start out with their native language at a score of 30. This is basic understanding, fluency, and slang knowledge for their generation. Your character may have 1 secondary language to start that they are fluent in. It's score will be equal to your characters Intellect and must make sense to their backstory. All other languages must be obtained in RP. No exceptions. Skills: Skill are percentage scores rating a characters chance to successfully perform a task such as firing a rifle, programming computer, or driving a car. All characters start out with a maximum of 12 skills. Skills must be picked from the provided skill list. These are the only skills your character has, so make sure their hobbies and job skills are covered in there. If you are a surgeon with no medical skills below - you aren't a surgeon, lol. They are divided up into Combat, Archaic, and General. Each Skill has a basic ability associated with it: that is your skills base score. A score of 30 equals basic proficiency in said skill. The max a skill can have is 100. Contact the Gm to get your random additional points (20d10) that you may add at character generation to up the score for your starter skills, or even your languages. (Those long term peeps, contact the GM to get your updated skill list for your characters, etc.) Profession: What did your character do before, during those first days, and post outbreak? Student? Waitress? Aide Worker? Running a settlement? List out here any jobs they have had, where, and if it was pre/mid/post outbreak. Family: This is direct relations. Mom, dad, uncle, sister, brother, 1st cousin, husband, wife, etc. List out name, relation, and if they are alive/dead/unknown at this time. Character Trivia: Not all of these are required. Sexuality/Scars/Piercings/Tattoos/birthday/items of note (limited to 2) are required. Items are limited to 2 and only special items, like a favorite book or dog tags. We are doing away with weapons and such. Those will be in posts since they change so quickly - food, weapons, clothing, pack, etc. (Those things will go in headers if they are important enough to need to be noted.) The rest is just flavor text or things to add in as we go along in the RP.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Skills List And Information

The Skills listed below don't cover everyday, basic knowledge. Most people know how to drive an automatic car, do basic math, operate a computer. Skill rolls just aren't needed. Now, going beyond everyday function, a character needs a skill and a roll. (And yes, we are still early enough in the outbreak that in TWD cannon not everyone has learned to fight and survive in this world.) Need to drive a manual transmission vehicle, perform complex Mathematics, pick locks, etc.? Then you need a skill to give it a go.

Each skill has basic ability attached to it, that is where a base score is drawn from. All rolls that are made are on a 1d100 system. So lower roll the better but higher the score the safer you are. If a character has a score of 30+ in a skill they are going to be considered competent in it. So day to day average activities wouldn't need a roll. 30 in guitar? Can play without worry. 30 in cooking? Can cook most meals without worry. 30 in a non-native language? Can understand and speak well enough in general conversation. Skill level of 50+ has an advanced understanding. 90+ the character is an authority.

Some skills have prerequisites - If a skill has a prerequisite skill and that prerequisite skill isn't at 30 then the associated skill is treated as having a score of 0 no matter how many points you put into it. So rule of thumb - Get your skills to 30 as a minimal to start. This way day to day stuff won't have to be rolled on and all prerequisites are covered.

Having said that - Rolls will be made when attempting something difficult, that is outside of the box, under high stress, so forth. Combat skills are always rolled on no matter the score or situation.

Now, skills are in order as they appear in the skills list, keep it that way. Combat are on top, Archaic are second, General are third. When picking, keep them in the listed order for ease of reference latter. Combat are just that, archaic are ones that fell out of practice (but are seriously useful in this RP lol), general are just that - everything else. Don't see something or confused? Contact the GM.

Advancement

What's the point of sticking it out in an Rp? I mean other than developing some wonderful story lines, creating inside jokes, and over all having a good way to spend some free time? Advancement. Developing your character beyond their initial concept. Psychology will change as events arise and are in the hand of the RP to how your character reacts and grows. But what about that experience that comes from surviving, fighting, putting in time to have another character teach yours something new? That is where advancement comes into play.

At the end of each major event in the RP there is a period of downtime for the characters. During this time Character Sheets are updated to reflect key moments, new relations, updates in a characters mindset, fears that have been overcome, new fears that have developed, and so forth. It is also when skills are updated.

How does one update their skills? At the end of each major event, characters will be given a minimal of 5d10's worth of points to put in their characters Skills or Languages to reflect additional proficiency or understanding gained. This is for existing skills and languages only. More skill points may be added. It all depends on the amount of action, carnage, and over all "WTF, DID THAT JUST HAPPEN?!?!" moments that occur during a set span of time. If you go on break, hiatus, or shelve a character for a period of time, bring the character in late in the time period they are ineligible for the maximum number of Skill Rolls at the end of a time period. (They could get partial roll if they are in it for most of the time, not enough time in the section will result in 0 rolls for that point.)

Acquiring new skills is up to the GM and is awarded depending on the RPer and how they have been using their characters in RP, how much they contribute and communicate. These are awarded at the end of major plot points or during time jumps.

What kind of couple?

[SgtEasy]

@Garden Gnome

I'd prefer heterosexual because homosexual relationships isn't something I'm used to and familiar with. I'd be playing the male baker, we can set up the rest in a PM if you want?

Okay, sent a PM :)

[SgtEasy]

@Lady Amalthea

Do we have to follow exactly what the group description says?

[spacecakes]

Are we suppose to send the cs through pm or through here?

Currently crafting a cs btw.

[Lady Absinthia]

@SgtEasy Yes

@spacecakes Please read the rules, they answer this question

[SgtEasy]

@Lady Amalthea

By beginning, would it be fine if the couple in group three met around a week after the Outbreak?

[Lady Absinthia]

@SgtEasy No, this is a together since Day 1 type thing. (Preexisting bond from before the outbreak - why sibling is also listed) If you want a couple that came together because of or after the outbreak, I can assign you to one of the other wandering groups.

[SgtEasy]

@Lady Amalthea

Ah no, they've met already in college and then kind of just faded away I guess. Then they meet one week after the Outbreak. But if you want, @Garden Gnome and I could change it so that they meet again on Day 1.

But they do have a pre-existing bond.

Edit: And by met, they were college sweethearts basically.

[spacecakes]

@Lady AmaltheaOh okay. Sorry, missed it.

[Lady Absinthia]

@SgtEasy That'll work.

[SgtEasy]

@Lady Amalthea

@Garden Gnome and I are currently working on our CS's, working on their relationship and their past together. We'll probably get out CS's up around tomorrow or the day after. We will update if we get delayed for some reason.

[SgtEasy]

@Lady Amalthea

Here is my CS. Hopefully it's good enough.

Psychology

Forgiving * Awkward * Kind * Childish

Sexuality:
Heterosexual
Relationship Status:
Dating
Personality:
Jonas grew up in a sheltered life, living in the northernmost city in New Zealand, Whangarei. Having brought up by his mother and father as an only child, they were very protective in him and were reluctant to even send him to a public school. He isn't the type of person to fight (even post-Outbreak), although his father's fear of bullying forced him to teach Jonas Taekwando, lessons that his father hid from his mother. He is a very kind soul with no real grasp on how to lie and cheat. Due to the fact that he was sheltered, he didn't really let go of some of his more childish traits, constantly worrying about travelling in the dark and keeping a small teddy bear in his bag to cuddle when he is left alone by Victoria. He isn't very serious, constantly joking and smiling on the road, even after the Outbreak.

He can't bring himself to killing other human beings and has some reluctance on killing walker children. However, he doesn't have any qualms with killing animals (from going out hunting with his grandfather) and walkers, his travelling partner calling him "a pretty decent shot". He isn't the type to swear or get angry, consistently trying to calm his fiercer girlfriend. His soft voice and calming attitude came from his role model and grandfather, a New Zealand sheep farmer that had a strange obsession with bread and an unforgettable personality. He also got his obsession of bread from him and the desire to become a baker.

Habits:
Talks to himself, scratches back of head, body cuddles (insert girlfriend name), cracks neck, quotes bread recipes at random times
Hobbies:
Swimming, baking (specifically bread), eating (specifically bread)
Fears:

• Losing his loved ones
• Being alone
• The Dark
• Clowns

Likes:

• Baking
• Reading
• Eating
• Sleeping
• Cuddling
• Meeting new people
• Shooting walkers

Dislikes:

• Cleaning his Remington 700P Bolt-Action Rifle
• Starvation
• Alone in the dark
• Mean people
• Large crowds
• Not eating bread

History

Your First Walker Encounter:
Jonas had been the first man in the bakery, quickly finishing a batch of fresh cupcakes for the morning. His obsession for cooking and baking in particular usually made him the first one into the bakery, trusted enough by the owner of the place to open the bakery in the early morning. He started to hum to himself, smiling as he took a long whiff of the sweet cupcakes. It was for the students, these cupcakes, the ones that wanted to buy something for lunch. He picked the best one out and sprinkled some more sugar on it, saving it for a nice little girl named Charlotte that always came to the bakery.

He chuckled to himself, remembering her request of "more sugar!" with a cute little pout on her face. As he calmly set down the tray of cupcakes on the counter, picking out the worst ones and began to eat them with a distasteful look on his face. Boss didn't like wastefulness so he forced his employees to eat the worst cupcakes instead of throwing them in the bin. As he stood there, staring at the brightly lot bakery, munching on half-decent cupcakes, he heard a small shuffling noise coming from the basement. Deducing that it was just Boss lounging around in there, he walked up to the basement stairs and called out "Boss! It's your boy Jonas! Are you there mate?"

No reply came, only a loud groan in response. Becoming increasingly worried, he flipped the switch to the basement on and carefully walked down, getting near the door and knocking. He heard a louder groan, a small howl and the sound of a figure slamming against the door. "Uh, Boss? You all goods?" There was increased a slamming, a hole punctured through the flimsy wooden door, revealing a grotesque, diseased arm.

Jonas backed away quickly, letting out a quick yelp of surprise. "Yeah nah Boss, you should probably get that checked out." The groans only increased as the hand retracted before he made three more powerful slams against the door, eventually breaking it. The Kiwi gawked at the shuffling, unrecognisable form of Boss as it lunged at him. He screamed, turning around and running, going through the kitchen, quickly weaving through tables and chairs before sliding under the metal door shutter. He immediately closed it down, locking it out before huffing and puffing at the sudden rush of adrenaline. He reached for his phone only to find he dropped it in the bakery. Not that it mattered anyways. 911 was flooded with calls.

History Before Outbreak:
Jonas was born into the Soberano family, in the city of Whangarei. His life in New Zealand wasn't rough and although he was quite sheltered, he led a good childhood. His life at school was normal, he made some good friends and even had something brief with a girl but that ended very quickly. He picked the sport of swimming, training hard and fast for his parents but even that became a routine, his speed steadily increasing through the years. The only thing to brighten up his normal life was his visits to the farm and meeting his grandfather". Their first meeting didn't really go as plan. "So. Do you play rugby?" When he shook his head, his grandfather just sighed and muttered to himself. Feeling disappointed in himself and slightly sad, little Jo hopped off the tractor they were on and stared exploring. He toddled around the large vehicle before stopping before a high powered rifle.

"Gun!" He pointed at the wooden stick of death with a singular, chubby finger, shouting at the top of his lungs. His grandfather quickly ran over to him, gasping at the sight before placing a hand over his mouth and swiftly slinging his hunter's rifle over his shoulder. He knelt down on one knee, staring down at the toddler. "Okay, here's a deal. If you keep yer trap shut and don't snitch on me to yer Mum, I'll give you five bucks and a chance, when you're older, to learn how to shoot this thing right here." He gestured to the gun slung behind him with a small twinkle and then bringing out five dollars. The toddler just gaped widely before shutting his mouth quickly and grasping the five dollars with chubby fingers, toddling out of there towards the barn.

From that day on, the relationship between the two became the best of friends. When Jonas grew older, his grandfather kept his promise and taught him how to shoot a rifle. Thankfully, the boy was so excited that he didn't even think of how wrong it was to teach a child to shoot a gun until later on. The also growing fascination with bread started when his grandfather took him to the nearest town and showed him his former bakery. To the child, bread was the perfect mix of sweet and savoury and that belief had carried onto later life. The relationship between grandson and grandfather was almost inseparable.

At the age of fifteen however, the trips stopped. No one said why, no one said anything except cry. He knew what happened. He cried too.

Life was quite the blur after that point, at sixteen he gained a firearms license, practising the hunting and survival skills he picked up from his grandpa. Without a companion however, it became a boring experience and he stopped after a year trying to hunt alone. School was monotonous and easy, his love life was laughable, swimming was stagnating and life at home was quite a somber affair. This all changed when he graduated, being offered a scholarship in Chemistry at Emory University. The family celebrated for days before he eventually left on the first plane heading to Atlanta.

The hype of the first few days in college soon turned into monotony again. Sure the work was harder but there was nothing special happening. He made a close group of friends (no girl in sight, of course) and it stayed like this until the very last year of his university scholarship. There were rumours a new girl in town, quickly rising go to the higher echelons of the university and becoming the girl that every boy wanted. And of course, Jonas had to go ahead and meet her.

He shuffled into the library, picking out a random book and then sitting down on a seat. He took a glance towards his friend Ben, giving a small smile and a thumbs up. He simply rolled his eyes at his friend and transfixed his gaze towards the woman in front of him. It was a simple dare, some fanfiction-like story coming to life. The nerdy Asian boy asking out the blonde, popular girl. It was for free lunch, Jonas reasoned, don't be so worried. Even though, his face blushed crimson as he opened his mouth to speak, heart thumping like a raging elephant. "H-hey, uh, that's s-some n-nice, um, b-books ya h-have there." She smiled.

And a relationship straight out of a corny romance novel evolved from there. They were college sweethearts, his friends being supportive of him. He liked her and she liked him. They spent hours talking in the library and was eventually forced to get out when the cleaners came in. He showed her around the campus, finding himself at ease and relaxed around her. In those many months, it felt like he had someone who understood him. And then he started to look at the people around him

It was sneered at by the Populars, they disapproved of one of their own going out with a "nerd" like him. He was shy, always behind her whenever they walked together, hiding himself from the stares and laughing faces. She had protected him from them of course but throughout it all, he always thought he wasn't good enough. She was beautiful, courageous, popular, perfect and he was... a nerd. It wasn't like the romance novels. He never opened up from his shell, he was never "accepted". He just... stayed the same. Soon, he just faded away into the sea of faces, trying to escape from the whispers and in turn, going away from Victoria. He graduated and split from Emory, finding a job in a bakery before he encountered his first walker.

History Since Outbreak:
After his brief but terrifying meeting with Boss and the realisation that his phone was back in the bakery, Jonas tried to calm himself down and call emergency services. It was still very early in the morning, a few days of light peeking through the horizon but he heard gunshots in the distance. He decided to walk the other way and take a longer route towards his house. There were very few people on the streets, most were homeless and just sleeping on the sidewalk. As he passed by an alleyway, he heard a loud crashing noise and screams coming from the shadows. His eyes widened and fear crept into him, forcing him to uncharacteristically leave and tuck himself deeper into his trench coat, pocketing his gloved hands.

Thankfully, the journey from the bakery to his apartment was a short walk and aside from that very brief altercation next to the alleyway, it felt like nothing happened. He quickly ran up the stairs of the old brick building, head swinging side to side, making sure no more of those things entered the building. He nervously opened his door and closed it behind him, locking it quickly. He let out a huge breath of air, as if he'd been holding it in for the whole trip. He hung his coat on a rack and picked up his phone, dialling 911. No response. He tried again. Dead. He reached for his secondary phone, Nokia smartphone just in case of emergencies and tried there. Same thing.

That was when Jonas was starting to really worry. He turned on the television and was immediately warned by a emergency broadcast, calling for people to go their nearest designated "safe-zone". He quickly packed as many supplies he needed though also taking things he wouldn't need such as his phone and charger, earphones, his teddy bear and his laptop. He shoved everything into his bag and used the GPS to make his way towards the safe zone. Outside, it was much more hectic now, streams of cars and people all heading for their safe zone. The endless screaming and the choir of honking noises were almost silenced by deafening gunfire nearby. It only made him run a little faster.

The Filipino weaved through the blockade of motor vehicles to cross the street, sometimes having to run over cars to get through. The gunfire was louder and the screams only intensified. This pushed him to face the soldier dressed in green camouflage, calling for everyone to calm down. He could've been younger than Jonas himself and was already dealing with a disaster like this? He only shook his head and snuggled himself further in his coat. The so-called "safe zone" was the ancient, large local library, turned into some "fortress" with soldiers armed with high-powered assault rifles walking through the masses. He scanned his eyes over the crowd before shaking his head, making a go for the stairs. Of one of those "things" were here, it would be a slaughter. He made his way onto the rooftop only to be stopped by another soldier in green, wearing an intimidating gas mask.

"What do you think you're doing here?" Although his voice sounded deep and macho, carrying a deadly Remington 700P, his hands were shaking with nervousness. Jonas stared up at the soldier with a curious expression. "Well, I'm not one of those 'things' if that's what you're asking."

The soldier aggressively shook his head before swiftly raising his gun to Jonas' head, clambering a round with a shaky hand. "Don't fucking lie with me, you infected piece of shit! Show your fucking bite mark! Huh bitch! Let me fucking kill you like I did my friend, huh? Let your brains splatter on the wall, is that what you fucking want, you piece of horse cock!?" The crazed man shouted at the top of his lungs shouting insults at the 27 year old man's head. Meanwhile, all his would-be-victim could do was stare the at barrel with wide eyes, heart beating a hundred miles an hour. His only thoughts were 'Oh god, I'm going to get gunned down by some raving lunatic.'

His fists clenched, tears forming in his eyes. He needed a way out of the situation. His gaze went downwards, at the soldier's wide open legs. He kicked hard. The soldier dropped down on his knees, dropping his gun and clutching his gonads. Jonas lunged to pick up the rifle and then hit his opponent's head with a quick snap with the butt of the gun, knocking him out in the end. He heard some more gunfire, some moving downstairs. He heard the loud screams cut short by the repetitive bang of the assault rifles. He nervously fumbled with the gun before deciding to rummage through the soldier's things, repeatedly saying sorry over and over again. Getting a good box of ammo, he sprinted towards a ladder leading down to one of the back alleyways and escaped.

A week later, as he was rummaging through a pharmacy store to look for painkiller, he met her once more. It was a quick and efficient technique, knocking his gun out of his hand and then immediately pointing her own to his head. "Don't move." He would've recognised the voice from a mile away. Tired and beaten, he started giggling at the sudden reunion, thinking back to the innocence of the olden days. When things were much more simple, in Emory University. He audibly gulped before he started to whisper in a calm, soothing voice "Victoria, remember me? It's Jonas, from college." He heard the sound of the gun arming, the weapon being pushed hard against his skull.

He was eventually able to calm her down from shooting him and persuade her into travelling with him outside of Atlanta. It was no longer safe there's the city was overrun by those things. The next few weeks were spent ducking and hiding the massive, roaming hordes that called Atlanta home, slowly making their way towards the outskirts of the city. When they escaped the city, they started to roam the state of Georgia, trying to do as many things as they could for survival. As the weeks turned into months and months into years, the two became closer, forming an inseparable bond together, forged through shared hardships and a love sparked in the wastelands of civilisation.
