Zombie Apocalypse Interest Thread

[Inbred Chocobo]

Well, I've seen this run before, without too much success, but I want to give it a try. Basically, you will be playing as yourselves, with all your knowledge and know-how. We would all be at a con or some other event that puts us in a giant public place when it happens. Half the people there are zombies, the con didn't allow weapons so you are unarmed till you get to your car or hotel.

Basically, who would be interested in joining this? As a note, if you are worried about telling people your actual name, you don't have to use it, you can make up another.

I'm interested, and time has been clearing up lately so I'd probably be able to join.

[TDK]

Wow, hey, I forgot this section was here.

This sounds fun, and I should be able to make time to post among classes and junk.

[Geminex]

I migh join. Though I have a feeling I'd get myslef killed very quickly.
Will we start during an NPF-con? Also, will the relationships between players be the same as they are on the forums?

[krogothwolf]

I'm interested

[Astral Harmony]

I'm interested, though I'm thinking of creating either a little girl or an intelligent dog. Hell, maybe both. Would that be alright?

[Inbred Chocobo]

Relationships will be whatever you people want them to be. You guys are the rpers, not me. I'm just the one throwing hordes of zombies. Also, question comes into mind, what kind of zombies do you guys want to have thrown at you? L4D style? Classic? My own kind of zombie breds? Robot nazi vampire zombies?

[Geminex]

Think up your own, that way we won't know what's coming.

Count me in!

How closely to reality and real life physics are we going to insist on? Cause this article below tells me that following real life might cause a zombie apocalypse to die out pretty darn fast.

[Dracorion]

I might be interested.

And holy shit. That Cracked article brings up an interesting idea.

Infrared zombies.

[Inbred Chocobo]

You just let me worry about all the little zombie details. Seems like there is enough interest for this, I'll start putting together a sign-up.

[RickZarber]

Hrm. I've never been much for RPs, but I kinda want to test the waters again, and this seems like as good a place as any. Plus, if I wanna give it up I can just be eaten! So, count me in I guess!

[Geminex]

Also, again. This should totally happen during an NPF-con. That'd a) explain why we're all there and b) allow the creation of a fifthfiend-zombie.

Also, c, 4 out of 5 umbral players (and the DM) are in here, and us having to work together during a zombie apocalypse would just be hilarious.

[Dracorion]

If by hilarious you mean our very first course of action would be to shoot you in the head.

Probably in the first post. Maybe even via flashback, so it happens before the RP even starts.

[Geminex]

If that happens, then I'm on the zombie side.
And I'd keep my cognitive skills.
And trust me, if there's one thing you want less than an undead horde out for your blood, it's an undead horde out for your blood commanded by me. Seriously.

And I mean come on, why shoot me? The RP works out well! We have a good system there, a good thing going. Why fix what's not broken?

[Dracorion]

Even if you keep your cognitive skills, the rest of the zombies would still be mindless.

[Geminex]

So? It's not like that's presented a problem before!

Ba dum tish
Ok, sorry. Let's get this apocalypse on the road!
