Sweet Plum — Roleplayer Guild

The Rose Plague

Nobody knows where the infection came from. It was unknown how it spread between the human race and animals. Many believed it was fungus spores spreading through the air, while others believed that it was god’s way of elimating the earth’s population. Anyone was at risk, at any time. They're calling it the Rose Plague, because the boils on the victim's body swell up and burst, only to leave rose shaped scars on the dead. This pandemic hit the Earth and ran wild, with no cure in site. Thousands upon thousands of humans were suffering and dying from this painful death. Many people you once knew died of the plague. A father, a sister, maybe a neighbor, or even a child. Everyone seemed to be touched by this rose infection in some way. Hope was beginning to be lost when things took the worse turn within weeks of the initial infection. The beginning stage of this plague was the boils, but within days of dying, your body would come back. If anyone attempted to kill the infected dead, the body would only burst, causing the surrounding people to become infected too.

The Infected
Little is known about them. We can only give them names. The Roses, Walkers, Pretties, Dead, etc.. (the list goes on). However, we never called them zombies. They were pretty harmless till they felt threaten. They are sensitive to noise and light. The Roses cannot stand bright lights. They tend to go into a bit of a rage if light gets into their eyes. The Roses will attack anything that has light (hint). Noises are a bit different. They tend to depend off of their hearing since they have a problem with light. They are excellent listeners. You make the slightest movement around them, well… your pretty much dead.

They can run. Fast. You better have an escape route if you plan to “out run” one of the Roses. Pain does affect them, but not like you or me. They will get tougher to kill the more times you stab them. They only way to kill the Roses is gunshot to the head, or even a stab into the brains. Be careful, they let out the worse scream, alerting the others. Once you have blood on you, they will track you. You have to be smart about out living these Roses.

They tend to stay in groups. You will have a few stragglers, but that is rare to see. If you see a group, you better kiss your mama goodbye, and hope you have a plan to escape them. The Roses can be pretty dumb too. They tend to go into rage, not thinking there surroundings. You can climb a latter pretty easy, without them following. You can tuck yourself into a corner before they have a chance to find you. They can get violent, but they aren’t the brightest crayon in the box.

Our Story
Our story is in Dallas, Texas. We all come from different backgrounds. We all have came together to create a small community to survive. The National Guard and military have failed us. FEMA camps are still fully stocked with water, food, blankets, and other wonderful supplies. Yet, the down fall is the Roses are filled in those areas. Our mission is to stay alive, and out live the Roses till either a cure is found, or someone comes to save us.

There will be a twist in our story. However, I cannot share that information. That is classified information. If you are interested in surviving the Roses, then please join our group! You must be able to roleplay at lease any two characters. Any age/race/gender is welcomed.

Then... the outbreak happened and life got a hell of a lot harder."

4. Dioxide (2-2)

Allison To Hoi Ying [+]

Full Name: “My name is Allison To Hoi Ying, but you may call me Allie.”
Date of Birth and Age: “My sister and I were born 5 minutes apart, before and past midnight, believe it or not! So I was born on the 25th of May, 1994 and my sister 26th. So I’m 19.”
Male or Female: “I’m female, yes.”
Relationship Status before the Outbreak: “I never really had anyone besides my parents and sister but I suppose that’s not what you’re asking for.”
About Yourself before the Outbreak: “I was kind of the more sensitive one, between my sister and I. I was a nerd; at the top of my class with a few prestigious awards here and there. My dad was a civil servant and our family lived a joyous middle class life, I guess you could say. There were plans for me to go beyond and over with scholarships of academic excellence… I suppose none of it matters now, but I still like to delve in thought of my old life every now and then.”
How Did you Survive the Outbreak: “Being an important civil servant, our father had privileges of safety and we were being brought to a safe place, so we were told. On the way, just before we reached the highway, we were attacked and the van was toppled over by those things... Our parents… were gone with the initial crash.

Millie saved us. She was tougher and knew what was doing, in some sort of sense. She was good at self-defense and we managed to fight and outsmart the Infected within the shade and silence. We’ve been running ever since.”

What Weapons do you Have: “I personally like to travel light, think of my feet and flee rather than fight. I have a Swiss army knife, the tiny thing. Millie found a fireaxe for me, but I dislike it. I do have a pistol though, but I could still use some practice with it.”
What is Within Your Bookbag: “I bring along our camping site supplies. We like to move, so I have our sleeping bags and some rope. My own water bottle and set of clothing are in it as well. We haven’t found much ammunition for our guns.”
Any Personal Items: “Millie and I have necklaces our mom and dad gave us when we were 1… We’ve held it dear ever since, the last and only thing that we have left of them.”
What are you wearing: “We keep it simple; tight and fitting clothing. I personally avoid anything bright-coloured anymore, and most of what I wear is either black or green. No skin is exposed, save the face.”
What you Look Like: This was us on our 16th birthdays. That was a fun day. I’m on the right.

What Have you Noticed About the Infected: “Arbitrary placements and movements, really. They are either bunched up or singled out and alone. Both are equally scary. They react violently to light and sound, but really they react to anything.”
Have You Noticed Any Physical Changes in the Infected: “There are variations in sizes but some of them have gross protrusions. They also… smoke, somehow.”
Who Have you Lost to the Infected: “…everyone.”
How Many Infected Have you Killed: “I don’t know. I really don’t want to know.”

twins [+]

Millison “Millie” To Fok Sung[/hider [+]

Full Name: “My name is Millie. Millison To Fok Sung.”
Date of Birth and Age: “The date is deceiving. Allie and I are twins, but we were born around midnight. Allie was on the 25th, I was on the 26th. May, 1994, anyway, so I’m 19.”
Male or Female: “Can you like, not, like, tell, like, by, like, my, voice? Urgh. Female.”
Relationship Status before the Outbreak: “I had boys after me, but none ever impressed me. It was just my sister and me.”
About Yourself before the Outbreak: “If my sister was the studious type, I was the active, outgoing one. I was a cheerleader who kept up with her studies. I took up taekwondo. It doesn’t show, yeah? Anyway, I was the tough to my sister’s gentle. Were we not twins, I’d be the older sister looking after the little one.”
How Did you Survive the Outbreak: “We were supposed to be taken to a secure area, my dad being a politician of some sorts. Needless to say they caught us in our van. I literally had to fight our way out of the road and take my sister to safety. Together we combined our knowledge to survive. We were careful like that.

My sister even took notes on maps. Goodness. But yes, we stayed together. It took a bit for Allie to shake off that shock and realize that our life of ease and decadence was over. We needed each other.”

What Weapons do you Have: “I have these two pistols. My sister has one so that makes three, technically. I also have a switchblade.”
What is Within Your Bookbag: “I have our medical supplies; some alcohol and bandages. I have our maps and a compass. We like to move fast, so we’re light for what it’s worth.”
Any Personal Items: “I’m sure Allie told you about our necklaces.”
What are you Wearing: “Whatever she’s wearing, really. She chooses what we wear and I adjust. Never loose clothing, never bright, never worn out. I’m wearing a boy’s polo right now.”

What Have you Noticed About the Infected: “They’re vicious for their lack of a brain. They rot and they migrate almost together. We tend to stray away from major cities because that’s where they just like to gather. Human flesh is that appealing, I guess.”
Have You Noticed Any Physical Changes in the Infected: “My sister pointed out the growths on their bodies. We stay especially away from those.”
Who Have you Lost to the Infected: “… everyone.”
How Many Infected Have you Killed: “Kind of a gruesome question, there. We’ve killed some, we left some. We’d rather live another day than risk our lives killing off a horde.”

What you Look Like: “I believe she’s shown you our picture already, but anyway. I’m on the left.”

5. FiroIV

Holland Rice [+]

Full Name :: “It’s Holland Rice, but I prefer Holly.”
Date of Birth and Age :: “February Tenth. I’m twenty three.”
Male or Female :: “If my voice, breasts, and face aren’t a dead giveaway then I don’t know what to tell you”
Relationship Status before the Outbreak :: ”I was single and wasn't looking. I’m still single and I’m still not looking. And I’ll probably stay single until this hell is officially over, but with my luck with women I’ll still probably be single even when this is done.”
About Yourself before the Outbreak :: “Let’s see… My mom was a fighter pilot and my dad was a marine. I look a lot like my parents, but my dad wore a prosthetic leg, and my mom’s dead. She died in flight shortly after I was born. My dad stopped being a marine soon after to raise me, but no one really stops being a marine. He taught me how to shoot, hunt, fight, camp, and live. I owe him everything. You would think he was training me to become a soldier, but no. He rarely mentioned anything about me being a soldier or his life in the service. The ironic thing is…I became a soldier after all. Hey, at least I’m good.”
How Did you Survive the Outbreak :: “Before things got really bad in Houston me and my dad were well on our way out of the city and away from the danger. We were planning to go up north, but first we had to make a detour to my dad’s brother and his family’s place in Dallas. He made it all the way to Buffalo. I continued to Dallas anyway since I didn’t really have any plans. I got to my uncles place, but I didn’t find anyone home, no note or anything. I was about to leave when Chris called out to me. We met and decided that it would be better if we stuck together since we were both alone. Safety in numbers after all.”

What Weapons do you Have :: “I have a combat knife with a serrated edge, and two Desert Eagles. They were all Dad’s”
What is Within Your Bookbag : “I have three boxes of ammo left. There’s fifty in a box so about 150 shots left. Rations, mostly trail mix and food bars. A roadmap, compass, and a telescope, which is how I’ve managed to get this far without running into horde’s of those things. A sleeping bag which has basically been my home for the last month. (Then my laptop, which isn’t all that fun to use now, but hey it still works so it’s worth the extra weight.) And of course some clothes.
Any Personal Items :: “I have one of dad’s dog tags, the other I left with him. I have my mom’s aviator shades, not that use em. And then I still have my school ID since I don’t exactly have a dog tag.”
What are you Wearing :: ” I’m wearing jeans, running shoes which have been a life saver, a long sleeved shirt, and a baseball cap.”

What Have you Noticed About the Infected :: “They’re not like the normal zombies portrayed in fiction that’s for sure. They’re fast, and are attracted to light and sound. If anything I feel like they’re just a an angry mob.
Have You Noticed Any Physical Changes in the Infected :: “I don’t stick around when I see them so I don’t know. I do know that they still look like the people who they were before, but some don’t have eyes. “
Who Have you Lost to the Infected :: ”My dad. And my uncle and cousins, but maybe they’re alive so who knows. I remain optimistic, but not too much.“
How Many Infected Have you Killed :: “No one likes to count\. My dad probably didn't count. I think we all know how many though. Seventeen for me.”
