Sweet, thanks :) Are we waiting for more to join, or jumping straight in?
I'm in, if you'll have me. Here's my Character Sheet:

Name: Centiel (Cen, if that's easier) Samson

Age: 23

Gender: Female

Mutations/alterations: After some experimentation, Centiel was left with the ability to move fast, much quicker than a regular human. However using this skill takes its toll; moving too quickly or for long periods of time can lead to migraines, weakness or even knocking her out. She has been careful not to push her ability too far, afraid that it could ultimately kill her.

Appearance:

History: Centiel's parents were slave labourers for the Collective, and she was chosen as a young child to be part of experimentation on humans. However, she was returned to slavery after having bad reactions to the testing; weakness, passing out, or showing little to no improvements. In reality, the testing left her with incredible speed, which she practised in secret, but rarely uses because of its side-effects. Her father died when she was 14, and her mother just recently passed away, leaving her with nothing more to lose, and everything to gain by joining the rebellion.

Personality: Centiel is strong-willed and can be quite stubborn. Although usually she tries to be easy-going and avoid confrontation, when she's angry she can become loud, sarcastic and outspoken.

Miscellaneous: Has some skill with knives; throwing, close-combat, etc. This is something she learned practising with a friend, sometimes just for fun, but also because they liked to have some form of self-defence.

(Obviously, all of this is can be changed if it doesn't fit with the RP)
Move, Maele told herself, frozen to the spot, staring at the tribute she'd just killed. She was going to be sick. No - she had had to do it. They all could have been killed.
It didn't make her feel any better.
Jay told them to move, and Maele wrenched her eyes from the dead boy, joining the girl grabbing everything in sight. She slung another backpack over her shoulder, and started looking for another weapon; there was no way she'd be touching that axe again. Lying amongst a pile of swords, she found a spear. At least that might mean that she could make her next kill from afar. Goddamn, she was already thinking in terms of the "next kill". Stop it!
To distract herself, she asked: "Do we have much water? Should we make that a priority?"
Jay was right, and the boy attacking just proved it. Maele watched Jay roll out from behind their rock and toss a dagger, the boy focusing on her as he drew another arrow, and she saw her chance. She had gotten them into this with her reluctance to kill, so she had a responsibility to end it.
While the boy aimed at Jay, Maele dashed out from the other side of the rock, ready to strike with the axe. She was on him in seconds, and buried the weapon deep into his chest, killing him, but not before he let out a blood-curdling scream.
"Do we really have to kill him?" Maele asked, seeing that the tribute left as guard was the boy from her District. "Could you just, I don't know, knock him out?" She knew she was being ridiculous, all of the tributes in the arena were dangerous; one less should be a godsend. But she hadn't killed yet, and the idea made her sick to the stomach.
Maele shrugged. "That'll do." Hunting... that could work, though so far she hadn't really seen any animals. Maybe they'd find some in the actual forest? "There's also the cornucopia. There's still a pack of tributes - careers, no doubt - sticking around there, but if we could manage to distract them, or sneak back... there's bound to be plenty of food and water still there; there was far more than could be carried away."
Name: Maxine (Max, Maxi, whatever is easiest) Lawson
Age: 18
Gender: Female
Appearance:
Personality: Reasonably cheerful, tries to avoid too much conflict, but can be very loud and argumentative when she's angry.
Animal: Fox
Bio: Max was a bit of an adrenaline junkie, and had a thing for fast cars and racing. There was an accident, something really tragic happened, and she ended up a criminal eligible for the program; but as of yet, she is not ready to share about "The Event", as she calls it.
Maele looked over at the cornucopia; still crawling with the patrolling group, and then back at the two tributes from 4, Matt and Jay. Matt's axe was lying on the ground, the gesture of peace clear. From the looks of it, they were heading into the forest area, and she doubted she'd last the night out in the desert; for now at least she should go there too. "Alright." Maele nodded, agreeing to the alliance, and looked to Jay, to see how the other girl would respond. But Maele didn't relax her grip on her own axe; she'd seen both of these tributes kill now, would she really be safe with them? "What's our next move, then?"
Alright, so looking for four other people interested in exploring a post-apocalyptic, zombie-infested world.

Basically, we're gonna be a group of survivors, stuck in the middle of the city, trying to head out to the country where the last-known running military base reportedly is (not so original, I know, but still fun).

However, here is the twist: one of us survivors has been bitten. This is going to be selected randomly, and to make it more interesting, no one else knows who. Basically, once we have 5 characters in, I will use a number generator, http://numbergenerator.org/randomnumberbetween1and5 (in case you're interested), to work out who has been bitten (when you submit a CS, please pick a number between 1 and 5, so that I can do this). I will PM the person that is picked, or it could be me, who knows.

The only real rules:
- if you are the person who has been bitten, you cannot tell anyone, though you can give hints, and the group can "work it out" (I will know who it is, but I'll shut up and pretend to have no idea.. actually, I'll probably forget anyway, I'm good like that)
- if you aren't bitten, you can't "prove" that you are not
- bitten or not, you can lie, spread rumours etc., so that there's a bit of mystery

Main plot points:
- we heard a radio transmission saying that the army had a safe zone in a military base - "Mullins" out in the country side, and we are trying to get there
- the virus spreads slowly; the change can take between 4 and 10 days, symptoms are varied, and many symptoms are unknown to the group
- the zombies themselves vary too, some are fast-movers, some are slow and shambly, and some do unexpected things

Ok, I think that's it. Basically, I just want to have some fun with it, so if you have any ideas to add, feel free, and I want the whole idea to have some flexibility anyways.

Here's an example CS (but feel free to add your own things if you want)

Number - (please make sure you are picking a number no-one else has already chosen)
Name -
Age -
Gender -
Appearance (can have a pic if you want) -
Other - (skills, history, interests, whatever you feel like)

And here's mine:

Number - 5
Name - Sienna Laws
Gender - Female
Age - 23
Appearance - Tall, with chin length brown hair and blue eyes.
Other - Sienna was at University when the outbreak happened; she made it to her parent's house to find that they had been evacuated already, and she hasn't heard from them since. Likewise, her boyfriend Sam was overseas visiting his brother, and she managed to talk with him a few times before communications went down; things are bad everywhere.
At Uni, she was studying teaching, and spent a lot of her free time running; something that has probably saved her life more than once since Day 0 (the day that the virus became public and the outbreak truly became unstoppable). She's glad to be with the group, and is holding onto the hope that at the military base she will find her family, and work out a way to meet up with Sam again.
Does sound pretty fun :)
