@Sp00ki Exactly. Anything complicated doesn't work as intended half the time if not more because the site's bbcode is so, so underdeveloped.

I forgot how much of a pain in the ass trying to code on RPG can be.

Hm, to make another interest check or not--that is the question.

Originating from Milford, the Holloways have been a family name in Huddeen since the late 1940s when the former Holloway Textile Co. was consolidated into a larger company upon sale of the family business. James Holloway, eldest son of the late Francis Holloway and freshly home from overseas fighting in war-torn Europe, had used this as an opportunity to purchase a house in Huddeen, having found the town quaint and welcoming to raise a family in.

Since then, the Holloways have been an active member of Huddeen's community. Wherever you look, there has been a Holloway attached to almost every aspect of Huddeen, from the mayor's office to the fire department to even the local school board. Jill Holloway (née Cooke) was one such Holloway, working as the local weather correspondent until her passing of ovarian cancer just prior to the apocalypse.

Blake is a man that looks more like someone's grandfather than someone in his middle forties. Time and stress has weathered him considerably to where one might mistake him for being older than he actually is.

Driving semis for a living, Blake was often away from home hauling cargo deep into Canada or elsewhere. Sometimes it was apples to Quebec, other times it was Christmas trees to the Midwest. It was long, tiresome work, and it often kept Blake from being home with his high school sweetheart, Jill, and their two daughters. But regardless of how stressful the hours were, it kept his family comfortable, and that was all he wanted.

Then came the diagnosis. His beloved wife had ovarian cancer—and it took her, fast. She had passed while he was out on the road, far away from home. Since then, Blake has been beating himself up for not being there during her final moments; his grief still affecting him to this day even into the apocalypse.

At five years old, Morgan was an unexpected yet welcomed member of the Holloway household. She doesn't quite understand why her mother is gone, and is known to ask innocent questions about her whereabouts. Additionally, Morgan also remains ignorant of the apocalypse, deliberately kept in the dark in hopes of somehow preserving her childish innocence. Her older sister, Holly, wants to tell Morgan about both, but she ultimately doesn't have the heart to do so. It'd crush her, and she likely would never be the same.

@KuroIs the Cs meant to be for multiple characters or can it just be one


Either or. It is primarily meant for a family, but there is no problem playing someone who lives by themselves.
Deadline will likely be some time next week depending on how fast we get sheets in. I haven't decided.

Please post your sheets in the OOC. DO NOT POST THEM IN THE CS TAB WITHOUT GM APPROVAL.

Also, to address a (sorta) issue we had last time, please try to keep to the New Hampshire aesthetic with house pictures. Brick houses, wooden colonial-esque churches, vibrant fall trees, etc. That way the neighborhood doesn't appear as a ramshackle mess of buildings.

Welcome to Huddeen, New Hampshire. Or rather, what's left of it.

Huddeen was a meager town situated near the three cities of Concord, Manchester, and Nashua. Although the town had enjoyed a close proximity to the cities, Huddeen was left to deal with the outbreak and resulting fallout by itself. The National Guard units that were assigned to relieve the town never arrived, and with the military consolidating resources towards larger population centers such as New York City and Washington D.C., it was ultimately written off as a necessary loss along with much of the New England countryside.

That was roughly two weeks ago. Most of Huddeen has been left to the dead, yet a small holdout still remains: Mulberry Street. One of the few roads in Huddeen, a surprising number of households along the street survived the initial outbreak.

Although these families were lucky to survive the initial outbreak, they are now in the eye of the storm. The electricity, water and gas are all still on, yet as the days pass the likelihood of them turning off increases. Other supplies such as food, unable to be frequently replenished at city supermarkets like before, are beginning to dwindle, forcing the survivors to start rationing. It won't be long before people will be forced to scavenge for resources—provided they can avoid being devoured by the wandering undead in the town.

Regardless of the impending doom, however, Mulberry Street stands strong. Armed with neighborhood camaraderie, some have begun to venture out into the unknown, eager to turn the street into a place of shelter and safety. Will you join your fellow neighbors in rebuilding the neighborhood into a thriving sanctuary, or will you sit back and let them waste their resources on foolish hope?

Hello, and welcome to Left Behind.

If you aren't here from the interest check, the concept behind the roleplay is rather simple. You, and/or your family, are a survivor of a recent zombie apocalypse, and so are most of your neighbors. Rather than devolve into bandits and eventually fight over scraps, the neighborhood has decided to pool their resources together to ensure the survival of their community.

As the roleplay takes place in a small outskirt town, there are no strong resource points to gather supplies from, such as a Walmart or some other big corporation to scavenge. There are a few local businesses to take from, like a small family diner and a gas station, but those supplies are finite and certainly don't have everything the neighborhood would need to survive. In other words, as the roleplay progresses, they will eventually be forced to venture out further, either into other nearby outskirt communities or into one of the three zombie-infested cities for supplies.

Given the nature of the roleplay setting, this roleplay will primarily be sandbox-based as it is designed for a base-building scenario. You aren't going to be mowing down zombies with machine guns or katanas, you are going to be ensuring that you and your neighbors survive against various things like starvation, mother nature, and of course, being torn apart by building up and creating a thriving sanctuary. The characters in this roleplay aren't apocalyptical badasses, they're just everyday joes trying to make sure that everyone makes it through the end of the civilized world as best as they can.

If that interests you, then the character sheet is below. I will try to answer any questions or concerns that anyone might have, but I also want to leave most things vague enough for players to interpret as they wish in the spirit of the roleplay. But if there is anything you're truly not certain on, then just leave a message and I or any other potential co-GMs will get back to you about it.

I'm likely bringing back the same cast I had, flows well if @mickilennial brings back her people.


Update: this dweebette has agreed to being co-gm.
Will be working on getting this RP started this afternoon.
