shylarahHi all. Sorry but been having a rough several days. I did finally read through all the IC and...well while I do have "general" ideas for characters, I fear they maybe either too "overpowered" or too involved in the plot that the RP host may reject it. Still, if there's still openings, I'll try to put them together and see which one works.
Also, noticed one or two character deaths...did people leave the RP already?

Cool. The problem I have is what I said. The RP is seriously going. I only started reading up to page 4 at the moment just to know what's currently happened. It's just going to take me some time to catch up since I need to figure out a character.
Also, I have played FE: Awakening plenty of times to know the original story so I think I shouldn't have trouble with this RP or perhaps designing a character but...I wanted to ask. Is it possible that I could play a "cannon" character from Awakening as a survivor? Then again, that may conflict with the host of the RP since that maybe a plot point or simply conflict with the current story that was planned out. I'd rather not say "who" but figured I should ask.
...well...back to reading...=p

Hi all. Just curious. Is this RP still accepting RPers? Sorry but considering how many posts there are in the IC and OOC, it was tough to read through em all. But considering how far along the story is, I'm guessing "no". Still, just asking.
Hi all. Sorry that I haven't been posting here but feel ill with something nasty. I think I'm ok now to post but...I've noticed this hit some slowdown.
Did people start to lose interest? Or was it my inactivity?

Vixen was now on the move. Being apart of a three Hummer convoy, the three military vechiles began heading out. They had to take a slight detour north due to undead activity in the south blockade. Soon, they had passed through the "Roosevelt Municipal Golf Course" and were continuing south. Their primary objective was to get onto "Los Feliz Blvrd" then go west from there.
However, things suddenly changed when the passenger, Private Hicks, got a call on his comms. Apparently, one of a few military units assigned to research the virus had gotten cut off within city limits and had taken refuge in the "Capitol Records" building. It was still on the way there but they were going to have to make a stop to figure out what had happened since Hicks could no longer get in touch with them.
After some time, they finally made it onto Los Feliz and what Vixen saw was to put it bluntly, tension. They were still technically in the rural area in a sense and the military were still keeping it in check but judging from the random people she managed to see around some houses, they were getting ready for a fight.
She hoped it was with the infected and NOT with the military.
Some people even looked as if they were boarding up their windows...and if she didn't know better, some of those people most likely had guns.
"...I just hope they all keep cool heads...", Vixen suddenly says.
"I hear ya. I just hope Bravo Squad is ok. I mean the Capitol Building?...wonder what happened...", Hicks said.
Vixen had some guesses but kept them to herself. On that, the hummer group conintued west.

Hi all. Sorry for my lack of posting even here in the OOC but I've been ill over the past week. Sorry bout that.
And Wayne, I received your PM. I'll see if I can come up with a good excuse to go in the recommended direction you gave me the first chance I get. Thank you for the help ^_^

Hey Wayne. Can you "puppet" the NPC drivers to figure out a route? Sorry but I wasn't sure what direction the military would take considering city wide circumstances. Plus, I don't want to go somewhere that doesn't fit into whatever "plot" you may have planned. Again, I thought about meeting up with Shivershiver's character but he kind of made it clear that he likes being the "lone wolf" poster for the time being.
Still, I guess I need suggestions and time frames of travel for anyone who can help me.

After some time had passed, Vixen's "escort unit" as it could be called finally arrived in the form of three hummers each driven by a soldier and watched by his assigned partner.
Apparently, they were also delievering ammo to the Los Angles Airport. Reports around the city weren't looking too good from what Vixen was told as she waited for her convoy to show. Bottom line, infected were now in most parts of the city with only a few places to either hide from them or that the military had manage to successfully lock down.
Vixen then got into the back of the two, putting her LMG in the back there. She was even given an SMG. An MP5 to be exact. Hick had said that even with her body, trying to run or retreat with an LMG may not be the wisest of situations. Agreeing she decided to bring along the extra fiream in case she had to abandon the LMG.
As the convoy loaded up, Vixen saw the drivers in a group, talking to each other. Wandering over, Vixen joined in just to get an sit-rep. But she already knew the problem. The best route to get to LAX was not going to be easy. Apparently, choppers had their hands full trying to ferry survivors to the nearby island to examine and quarintine survivors. They just had their hands full. Worse, some pilots refuse to even land anywhere within L.A., saying that the infected will "leap" onto their copter like superman or something.
Vixen had just shook her head but nodded. But no matter what route they took, encounters with infected were going to be high. If they pulled into an area where they could simply mob the convoy, it wouldn't end well. Then again, some areas where there are survivors may decide "guts than brains" and try to attack the convoy for possible supplies, weapons, etc. From what reports say in certain areas, some civlians are refusing to co-operate with military. Obviously, panic and fear had already gripped the populance in some parts.
She decided to see what they plan out since it seemed simply going "west" probably wasn't the wisest of routes depending on how things were now...

DarkRecon, remember to use Google Maps if you're not sure which route your character is going to take. Use it for looking up directions, locations, and photos. Remember, use the link for Google Maps, not the RP map.Looking it up myself, it'd take about 30-60 minutes to drive there and about 5 hours to walk there in normal conditions. Considering the outbreak and chaos in LA, multiply that by 2, so about 1-2 hours by car and 10 hours walking.Don't zip through it, because if you do, I'm not going to let you RP here any more. I want people here to take time to get a feel for the LA area. For reference, try to imagine that 1-5 minutes elapse between each post, so if you REALLY want to go all the way to LA International, that'd be about 12-24 posts minimum by driving and 120 posts walking.Chances are, you don't want to waste that many posts on just getting there, so I'd recommend going off that course and going around different parts of LA. There's already enough people at LA International, and I can look stuff up for everyone if they don't feel like doing that work themselves.
Ok. Yeah that makes sense. I was never good with the "travel" system so this could be a good reference post for me. Shivershiver also had a character in the city limits from what I saw...though I have yet to see a post from him.
But yeah, I might just do the hummer escort since I can say that the nearst chopper was at LAX but it's being used to track two escapee's from the airport. Still Wayne, I'm just drawing blanks on what direction to send Vixen in. Worse case, you can "puppet" her travel schedule if you have to.

I'm using my younger brother's computer, but I've got limited access.DarkRecon, can you locate Griffith Observatory? I can't update the map because I'm in Invermere, and I likely won't be back home until Sunday.
sorry. I just assumed it was there since you told me about it. Besides, Vixen ain't staying there long. Just trying to figure out if she's going by copter or hummer.
I actually thought hummer since someone here has a character out in the city somewhere...they could possibly meet.
