Bio
About
I go by Sarge. Im in my mid-twenties. I don't identify by gender. I've been RP'ing on other sites but just moved over here in hopes the community will be better. I consider myself Advanced but I'm not terribly picky. I'm comfortable writing a novella or a sentence (though the later rarely happens).RPs

@Polaris NorthI'd prefer more realistic. But I'm also none too fond of using someone else's real picture (E.G. Actors and Actresses). That said as long as it's not overly tasteless (mainly manga/anime with the girl having skimpy clothing) do what you want.
Got it up.
If you guys have anymore questions please let me know.

Current IC Events
It's now been 3 days since the first reported victim of the "Zombie" plague was reported. Things are calming down a little. No one's fallen sick in a while, but there is now a large mass of these so called zombies wandering the city.

Holes In Your Coffin
Premise
From the Diary of Jane Lewis
I think this might be it for me. It's hard to believe that the world has pretty much ended. Well, the world as I knew it. It was just a few days ago but it feels like an eternity ago that I was worried about my sixteenth birthday. And now? Well, I'm writing this down in hopes that someone some day might find it. If anyone lives through this.
So it all started just a few days ago. Just another normal day. Until my dad turned on the TV. The news was covering this virus outbreak in China. At first it was just mentioned. No one paid all that much attention to it. And the world went on without much care. It wasn't until I was at school that everything turned for the worse. Scott stood up and told everyone to pull out their phones. At first Teach was so pissed. It was actually kind of amusing. Then Scott shoved his phone in her face. Then she went really pale and we all started pulling out our phones.
I couldn't believe what was on the news sites. A ZOMBIE PLAGUE? It was sweeping across Asia rapidly. All flights were shut down. Every ship was denied port everywhere. Every nation was locking down their boarders. The photos were just horrifying. I wasn't the only one who lost it.
The school tried to keep everyone on campus. But I wasn't having none of that. Along with a bunch of other students we ditched the place and headed home. By dinnertime the "plague" had reached almost every nation in the world including mine. It swept across our town yesterday. Everyone I knew, everyone I loved is infected. I don't know why I was spared. What I do know is that they're hunting me down. I wont last much longer. Already I hear them downstairs.
I love you Mom, Dad and Nate. I guess I'll see you soon.

Important Dates:
March 22, 2018
WHO in China reports a strange illness. It was documented that the first stage caused the victim to have severe flu symptoms. The second stage hits almost three hours later and results in death. The third stage occurs 6-12 hours after the second. The deceased appears to "live" once more. But they have no brain activity, heartbeat, nor do they breathe. Scientists dubbed this stage the Zombie stage. China quarantines the infected villages. The Army is rapidly infected and quarantine fails.
March 23, 2018With the fall of the Chinese Quarantine efforts there are reported Zombies in most of Asia. All air traffic is grounded and most countries close their boarders to all boats and other ships. Despite their best efforts there are now infected individuals in every nation. Scientists speculate on the incubation stage. It's postulated that it might be for a few days unlike the visible symptoms.
March 24, 2018Pretty much 90% of the world in infected. Cities fall into chaos.
Zombies
For the purpose of this RP Zombies are the mindless shamblers. They're slow moving, dumb, but tenacious. They don't give up but are easily fooled. If you are bit by a zombie you might not turn into one. The virus is airborne (which the characters will not know at this point). There is one exception is the "Smart" Zombie who retains their humanity and has control over themselves.
Most Zombies at this point look relatively normal. However there will be some decomposition. If you're unsure of the more gory details this article explains it quite well. Some might have disfiguring wounds but most will be pretty normal looking for corpses. Since the RP will begin 3 days in there wont be anyone who looks like your stereotypical zombies (rotting flesh, body parts falling off, etc). However as the RP progresses the more our Zombies look like Zombies. (As a side note it takes about 8 years to turn a body into a skeleton (in a coffin. less optimal conditions might take longer or shorter). So our Zombies will not literally rot away for quite sometime.)
Our Smart Zombies are again an exemption to the rule. They will decay some but not all the way. If you're playing a "Smart" zombie PM me and I'll let you know some things.
About Hunger and Compulsion in a Zombie. A Zombie is a mindless being who only knows an insatiable hunger. It is always hunger and never satisfied. It will follow after a living person until it's legs literally fall off. It will never give up. It's one desire is to feed. However a Zombie is not driven to infect people with the virus. (Again, not something our non-zombie characters will know)
A "Smart" Zombie also feels this Hunger. However much like an individual affected by Prader-Willi Syndrome. It's hard, but they can resist the urge to feast on living people. Much like the other zombies even if they do give into the urge, the desire to consume will not lessen. Of course it will not grow either. It merely is.

Characters
The uninfected and "Smart" Zombies are acceptable. However I will only accept 1-2 Zombie characters. I want more humans than zombies.

Rules
This is casual, follow the guidelines for a casual (not free) post.
Post at least once a week. If I don't hear from you in two weeks you'll find your character unhappily zombified, and possibly dead.
If you got any problems either handle them like adults or bring them to me.
Follow the site rules.

I'm quite busy today so I'm expecting to be done with fixing the OOC tomorrow or Thursday at the latest.
Well, with three people interested I think I have enough to make a thread. If you guys have anymore questions leave them here. I'll get working on the OOC and everything tomorrow.
I suppose I have some question- do the smart zombies look like smart zombies?
Smart Zombies look the same as regular zombies.
Do they have any motivations given to them from the infection like spreading the disease or compulsions to consume flesh? Or do they have complete control over themselves?
There is no compulsion to spread the virus. Only to devour. They will be hungry all the time but they retain their ability to control themselves (and their mind of course). Non-smart zombies are your typical mindless shamblers who only care about their next meal and they're never satisfied.
That clear things up? I should add all this to the OP since I'm obviously failing at explaining my Zombies well.
