A City. (High Fantasy)

I have to support both Dylan and Too Old.

While Dylan has a base idea, Too Old is correct in saying that there has to be a baseline for everyone to base their ideas off of. Dylan, I'll be glad to give you a PM or even, magically, give you a call since I'm on an American phone plan now and help you out! :DDDD

But calling you would of course lead to long talks about how sexy I am and I don't have time for that. PM AWAY!

A City. (High Fantasy)

The year ended and I got a little... Well, let's just say teenagers aren't my thing.

A City. (High Fantasy)

You were supposed to tell me before posting, dammit. But I shall join this! Also, Mr. Dylan, I don't think I told you yet, it's been a while since we've chatted, but I moved to New York a week ago!!! I'm back working as editor now, too, no longer a teacher. I'm in the States, officially, for like the next two years. This city is fucking awesome. O_O

Enders of Fate (dark RP enclosed, and I mean DARK)

Because you don't talk to Meeeeeeeeeeeee enough. I'm also quite interested. Been sorta dead to the forum for quite some time, might as well do something. Teaching sucks, so... Yeah, I wanna kill lots of children. :D

Like I said, I can't force you to use my format. Just don't let details and realism trip you up too much. There's nothing realistic about zombies anyway.

I disagree. A fungal infection could, in theory, allow for a zombie. Fungi can preform neurological and vascular functions on a corpse, making it appear alive, we know this from studies. Theoretically, a fungus that infects a human could be transferred via a bite, lie dormant until death, then restart the neurological and vascular functions to aid in spreading the fungi to continue the species's growth. Highly improbable, but not impossible. Your idea, with a parasite, is actually very similar to the most likely scenario, which is why I like it so much.

Well I can't force you. But I can't be assed to read through his dating profile.

Not even if I say pretty please?

I didn't mean it like that, mate. I meant the "irrelevant" stuff is for my use. I could leave the "irrelevant stuff" in hiders, if that'd be acceptable.

Nothing is irrelevant to me, every aspect of a character is important. The sheet is more for my use than anything.

Oooooh, you sneaky dog, you. I'm a junkie for realism, not an ass, just a heads-up. :P

That being said: If it's not a virus, it'd be a bacteria. If it's a bacteria, it's an antibacterial formula... Not a vaccine. Bacterial illnesses CAN be cured. Which makes sense, since you said it was "cured". Mwahaha. I think I figured it out. >_>

I'll probably be willing to play a doctor-turned-warrior, if you'll have me.

Medical Doctor with a focus in Diagnostic Research and a dual specialization in Infectious Disease and Neurology. Sub-specialization in Virology (sub-category of infectious diseases). Former professor and head of diagnostics at hospital turned "field doc" for a Peacer gang. His fancy specializations have little to no real help when treating field wounds, but it earns him the flashy bragging stuff: "Haha, I'm smarter than you" kinda stuff.
