Yosuke-kun Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 ^^^IC is here^^^ Opening Theme It was so simple. That day. The beginning of the end... None of us saw it coming. Nobody was prepared. We were all in class as usual, studying, doing work, goofing off, flirting with our peers, normal teenager stuff. Living normal teenager lives. I might have been the first to see how it started. For our school at least. I was looking out the window of the class, just enjoying the view, when I saw a man walking... strangely. The staff must've seen him too, since campus security was dispatched to deal with him. That's when I saw the smoke in the distance. Rising above the city of San Diego ahead. My gaze fell back to the weird man. No, he wasn't a man, and now, neither were the small security team meant to stop him. I didn't waste time, I got the f*ck out of there. Didn't take any of my things, didn't stop when the teacher told me to take my seat, I just moved. I didn't know what was going on, but I didn't want to be around when it happened. Next thing I knew, there was an announcement on the intercom. An announcement telling everybody to 'stay calm' and 'evacuate in an orderly fashion'. That was all we heard from him. Next thing was a scream. Followed by the mic hitting the ground moaning and growling, and the sickening sound of the announcer being torn apart... being eaten... then silence. All hell broke loose then. People always did panic at the worst moments, and I was no exception. I was just one of the luckier ones and panicked first. Within instants the halls were filled with students. Each of them scrambling and shoving each other aside to get to their 'freedom'. Some jumped from the third floor only to meet their death. That's when I got my first real look at the... infected -I couldn't bring myself to call them zombies, this wasn't a movie or some video game- They started attacking, killing and eating their victims, only to have them rise up and become one of them. I struggled and scrambled through the crowd, watching as people who were once friends stomped on each other to get away. I won't say what some others were doing. Just that neither the attacker or the victim lived through it without joining the dead. I first thought about going to the faculty office or the gym, but then realized that others would be going there too, including the infected. They'd be death traps. The hiding place for the desperate. I chose the wood shop class, and fortunately, or unfortunately, I wasn't the only one. Five other students had made it to the room before me. We all worked together to bar the door, drilling several long planks of wood to it, to keep the infected out. Thank God, if there still is one, we did. By now, the school's gotta be crawling with 'them'. At least we know we're safe for now, but we need to get out. We need to think of a plan... We need to survive... 1st Day of the End, each survivors thoughts [spoiler=Rules] 1. All YCM rules blah, blah, blah, you all know that part. If you don't, you're probably looking at the wrong rp ._. 2. I'll be playing the infected, meaning it's essentially me against all of you. Your goal, is to keep you and your party alive til the end of the rp. 3. If you make a mistake that would get you killed in a real zombie apocalypse situation, YOU WILL DIE. If you die, you are officially removed from the rp. Permanently. No "Coming back at the end to save the day" crap. (For those who still don't understand, WHEN PEOPLE ARE KILLED, THEY DIE!) 4. Since it's obviously going to be impossible to go through the entire rp without one person doing something to screw the rest of the group up (or just yourself) I'll give each player, myself included, 2 "Mercies". These are equivalent to extra lives, or shields. Once you lose both, you cannot afford to screw up or you WILL DIE. 5.Since there will be a couple situations where survival will become impossible, if the team can work together and come up with a well thought out plan of action and execute the plan perfectly, we'll call it a miracle, and the entire team (even if they pull a Rei and only make it LOOK like they helped) will escape unharmed. If the plan goes exceedingly well, the person who contributed the most as well as the one who thought up the plan will be awarded an extra Mercy. 6. Since this IS an rp about a group of teenagers going through a city fighting zombies there are gonna be some raging hormones going around, and characters probably will hook up, but even so, and I really shouldn't need to say this, but keep it within the PG-16 rating please. I don't care if you and another character get lucky, but if you describe anything, or say anything more than "They slept together", you and the other character will be killed and banned from the rp. But don't worry, you'll die in the arms of your partner. Also kindly remember that this IS a zombie apocalypse situation, so for survival purposes, keep that to a minimum anyways. 7. I'm gonna be lenient if a character has an ability that states otherwise, but keep it somewhat realistic. For example, if you don't have the Scavenge ability, you're not gonna be finding guns left and right. If you don't have the Mechanic ability, you can't fix a car. If you don't have any form of Gun Handling, you shouldn't even touch the guns because you won't get many head shots. Like I said, keep it realistic. (Failure to follow this rule will pretty much result in you committing suicide anyways, so just follow it peeps ._.) 8. There's gonna be a Good and a Bad ending to this rp (there's really no room for a neutral one with zombies). The ending that you will get will depend on how many characters actually survive, the team as a whole's performance, and the bond each member shares with each other member by the end of the rp. This honestly won't be too hard, it just requires a certain amount of consideration and common sense. 9. Since I am the host, my word is the law of the land here. As always, I'll be fairly lenient and try to help find a way to work out whatever the problem is, but if I say no to something, don't throw a fit. Ain't nobody got time fo that. 10. This only applies when using guns, but keep track of how much ammo you have. Nobody gets a bottomless clip and nobody gets unlimited mags. If you run out of ammo, don't blame me that your guns now a club that you can't use as well. 11. Acceptance will NOT be determined on whether or not you got here before others. If I think your app is better than other people AND if your rp skill is better than some others, you'll be accepted. In other words, don't expect to get a spot because you were the first to post an app. Obviously since there's only six players (myself included) each player can only run one character. 12. This is an anime-eque rp... as if that had to be said. [/spoiler] [spoiler=Character Traits/Abilities] Each character will be given four character traits/abilities/talents. Just because your character doesn't have a certain ability, doesn't mean they can't perform the action said ability entails (EX: People without One-Handed Blunt Handling can still use one-handed blunt weapons) but the results will not be as good as if they had the ability. Think carefully before choosing the talents you want your character to be able to excel in before choosing (recommended this area be left open on the form till I say otherwise as new abilities will be coming in until the rp has started and because the team should choose there abilities together for the best results.) Scavenge - Your character's eyes pick up more shiny things than the usual persons. People with Scavenge will find far more useful items than those without, such as extra water and food, ammo, (which WILL be rare in this) and even weapons. Just remember, thank God for rednecks. Leadership - Your character is a borne leader. After the initial panic, they managed to keep their cool through almost every sticky situation as well as keep their friends morale up. Can cause a conflict if two players have the Leadership talent, leading to worsening each situation. License - Your character will have greater results when driving vehicles like cars, trucks, and buses. License reduces the amount of crashes, car flips, and any other form of vehicular accident that will occur when a character with the ability is driving, excluding ones involving zombies being crushed beneath tires. First-aid - Self explanatory, but allows your character to use medicine and medical equipment to treat wounds and illness (there might be some). If a character with First-aid treats a mortally wounded character or a character at risk of losing a Mercy (or just dying) properly, they will be able to keep there Mercy/life. Construction - Your character is proficient and skilled at crafts and creating. Characters with crafting will be allowed to use spare materials or equipment to create more efficient (or flamboyant or threatening) weapons. Mostly useful at the beginning of the RP, becoming almost invisible in terms of usability near the end, but still shines in situations requiring a quick shank. Mechanic - Your character is skilled with the workings of cars and other electrical devices, and has the ability to repair or rewire them to better suit there goal. Whether they're repairing an engine, or setting a fire alarm to go off at a specific time. Also reduces the time it would take for a normal character to perform this ability. Also allows the character to add armoring to trucks and cars. Pyrotechnic​ - Your character loves things that go BOOM! and flashes with flames. As such, they specialized themselves with creating and setting up explosives using what few chemicals and equipment the have Strategist - Cleverness and intelligence has always been your characters strongest point. They can quickly think their way out of sticky situations, come up with a usable plan of attack, and even manipulate some dumber people (manipulation of characters needs to be mutual). Gun Customizer - Allows the character to add more customizations to guns, and even add another weapon to it. Bloodlust​ - Your character loves battle. With each enemy they kill their performance in combat increases. Can result in mental instability, but can be quelled by a character's crush or a character using the Leadership ability, though this only rarely gets to that point. Unnoticed - Enemies will attack your character last, (unless you intentionally draw their attention) giving them a small chance to assault the enemies before they can defend themselves. Results on said attack will also include the weapon that your character is currently using and how proficient they are at using it. Starting Pitcher - All those years of your character pitching on the varsity Baseball/Softball team finally come in handy in the real world. Your character will have far better results (and aim) when throwing Molotovs, grenades, or sound emitters. (character doesn't actually need to have been on a team to use this ability) Knife Handling​ - Whether they're throwing of stabbing, your character is far better than any other at using knives. So long as the knife hits the head of an infected. Blade Handling - Your character is better at wielding a single handed blade than the normal person. This includes machete's, sickle's, hatchet's, etc. Two-handed Blade Handling - Strong and with an affinity for cutting, your character is very skilled with two-handed blades. This includes katana's, long swords, fire axe's, etc. Blunt Handling - Your character prefers hard and heavy one handed weaponry as apposed to fancy blade work. Weapons in this group include crowbars, hammers, wrenches and other small blunt objects. Two-handed Blunt Handling - The heavier the better, at least when it comes to squashing infected heads right? Your character is far better at using weapons like baseball bats, sledgehammers, shovels, and any other large heavy object. Gun Handling - Your character has the eyes of a hawk. Their aim is better than any other member of the team, whether it's with handguns, shotguns, automatic weapons, or long range rifles, your character exceeds in on of these. (You may have the character be proficient with one of the gun types mentioned or all, but if all is chosen, your character may not choose another weapon handling ability or Starting Pitcher.) Pole Handling - Like spinning stick weapons around? Then this' your characters talent. Pole Handling increases the effectiveness off any polearm, including staves, spears, and broomsticks. >Archery - Not only is their aim deadly, but so is their grasp at physics. Few people know that you need physics to accurately aim a bow to kill an enemy. Your character is better with bows and crossbows than other characters.

Bio: (6 sentence minimum on this.Tell us who your character was before the incident) [/spoiler] [spoiler=The Survivors] [spoiler=Mehself]"I know I can't save everyone, but I can at least try to save the people right in front of me..." Name: Cody Renner Age: 17 Grade: 11th Gender: Male Personality: Cody was always a kind hearted boy, but never had a great many friends. Part of this kindness includes a love of making people smile. As such, he's usually the member of the team that that tries to cheer others up and keep their attitudes positive. Along with kindness, he is also highly intelligent and observant, noticing things that others don't. He isn't a relentless boy, but he can be determined when he cares enough about a cause or has a strong belief in what he is doing. He's always willing to do some things that others won't when they need to be done. Tends to remain calm and collected during tough situations as well as awkward or embarrassing ones. Like many boys his age, he finds great enjoyment in fixing up cars and motorcycles, but unlike most of them, he learned more than just auto mechanics, including how to rewire certain equipment to do what he wants. He also harbors a deep love of Samurai's and Bushido, due to the manga and anime he was fascinated in as a child. Talents/Abilities: Leadership, Mechanic, GunHandling - Shotgun, Two-Handed Blade Handling Voice Actor: Yuri Lowenthal Crush: Alicia Dovedale Appearance: Standing 5"10 and weighing about 195lbs, Cody is described as having an average body structure for a boy his age. His facial appearance is not incredibly attractive, but yet is not considered unattractive. His vibrant blue eyes carry a somewhat lazy look to them, as they're usually half closed, with the exception of when he's active of course, giving him a Bishi-ish appearance, which isn't helped by how his bangs hang slightly past his eyebrows. Although his bangs wave in and out of his face, the rest of his hair is more tame, preferring to stick straight back and curl upwards at the tips. As you travel down the side of his head however, his hair starts to stop defying gravity and aim downwards slightly more the lower each strand gets. In muscularity, Cody doesn't excel far past his peers, (or former peers now) but has enough build to be involved in some of the heavier lifting with the group. His abs are not quite chiseled, but are more defined than some of the other boys. Bio: It was never clear to Cody what his father did. He knew he was a scientist and that he worked for the government, but beyond that, it was always clouded in mystery. He had tried multiple times to ask, but whenever he did, his father would simply change the subject and Cody would forget about it. His mother was a middle school teacher, and liked to talk about her students to Cody. In fact, many of his fellow classmates had been taught by his mother, and none of them had any complaints. He got along well with both his parents, though he like all teens had his disagreements with them, so he managed to live a moderately happy life. As far as his social life, Cody wasn't very well known in his school, but was not forgotten. He never stood out or blend in with the crowd, he was simply there. He was never an athlete, though he had a passion for soccer, and was never a major part in any clubs or organizations at school. If anything, he was known for his high grades, since he almost always scored in the top 10 on tests. He stayed away from the party scenes, partly because he was never invited, and partly because he was always watching his 11 year old sister Gwen when he was not in school. He didn't mind this, seeing as he had no desire to drink, smoke, get high, or otherwise interact with that crowd. The only two things he was able to pride himself in was his self endorsed Kendo Lessons, all of which turned out far better than he'd expected, and his and his fathers ability to use a shotgun. When Cody and his dad would shoot was the only time in which the two ever truly bonded. The day that "they" came, Cody was lazily staring out the window of his Trigonometry class, feeling bored since his parents generally kept him two classes ahead in his classes. He had first noticed smoke coming from the city, and assumed it was just an arsonist fire until he'd seen the strange man. He watched him, wondering about his strange walking pattern, and chuckling at how zombie-like it looked. As the small security team approached the man, intending to escort him from the premise, things turned bad. The man attacked one the security team, biting him on the neck and killing him instantly. As if this wasn't bad enough, the dead security member rose and attacked the men and woman who were once his fellow employees. Cody instantly connected the dots, and ignored his teacher as he bolted out of the class. He wasn't sure he'd do, but he needed to find a way to get away from "them". Soon later, the PA announcer had announced that there had been an incident, and that everyone needed to stay calm and evacuate, but he too was attacked in the middle of his announcement. The PA room was on the second floor, Cody was on the third. It wouldn't be long till the infected got to his floor. The halls then filled with panicking students. Each fighting each other to get ahead and keep whatever was left of their life. He wasn't sure how, but Cody somehow made it to the Wood shop class room, last of the only six survivors... [/spoiler] [spoiler=Kyng] "Don't worry, you'll be alright."Name: Alicia DovedaleAge: 17Grade: Senior YearGender: FemaleTalents/Abilities: Scavenge | License | First-aid | Gun-HandlingVoice actor: Brina PalenciaCrush: Cody Renner [spoiler=Personality ] Alicia holds a rather cold glare in her eye, and well captures her conditioned survival-militarist mindset, in which she upholds strict principles and morals which she abides to, as well as aggressive in combat. She holds an unbreakable loyalty to those of her cause when having developed a strong enough bond, and will follow the leading role's orders without hesitation, though not incapable of taking charge herself. She adamantly will protect the weak, but bears the utilitarian approach when dire situations come about. On a deeper level, she comes across as a maternal figure in which she will offer as much attention as needed to others, however interestingly she cares little so about her own well-being, more so that of others. [/spoiler] [spoiler=Appearance: ]Eye Color: RougeHair Color: SilverSkin Hue: Pale CaucasianHeight: 5' 8"Weight: 127 lbsMeasurements: Bust: 34F; Waist: 24; Hip: 35Blood Type: A[/spoiler] [spoiler=Bio: ] Born in South London to a father involved in MI6's work, an exec. nonetheless, Alicia was relocated alongside her Mother to San Diego. This relocation was due to a recent threat provoked by the nature of her father's work, and this was merely twelve years ago when Alicia had been removed from her father's tender touch. Of course, regular Skype made contact easier, but still, they lost all real physical contact. At age 5, Alicia resumed her continued studies. Initially in a private school, her father advised that she would be moved into the American Public School system as soon as possible, in order to maintain the family under the radar. With this, as soon as she had finished her primary education studies, the Private School had her transferred to the High School; boy, she really thought maybe if she'd stayed in a Private School, she'd not have gotten into this mess. With High School, she occasionally (that meaning often) had came in with a military uniform. Reason being is that, with a watchful eye, Alicia's father had her take a survival course, and then later military training in order to have her ready for anything, to make her truly outstanding and able to defend herself. Occasional teasing lessened with time as she matured, as it naturally would. Dropping violin practise as soon as the infected came about, her militarist conditioning brought her to immediately think "Weapons. Nail Gun, or something; wood shop." So, that's essentially how she wound up there. Survival in her mind, not much else needed to be said. [/spoiler] [/spoiler] [spoiler=Kaka]"What kind of work? And what kind of pay?"Name: Jensen HouseAge: 17Grade: 11th GGender: MaleTalents/Abilities: Unnoticed, Two-Handed Blunt Handling, Construction, Scavenge Voice actor: Tim Phillips (voice of Dante from DMC Devil May Cry)Crush: N/A [Spoiler=Personality ] Jensen has a rather laid-back attitude, not caring whether his grades are high or low or whether he has a lot of friends or not. His casual attitude also makes him a little slow or hesitant in pressured situations and doesn't expect himself to do as well as others. He prefers to keep putting off things he doesn't want to do until it's the last second or it's needed to be done at that moment. In a survival situation like, for example maybe, a zombie apocalypse, Jensen concentrates more on survival of himself and those he likes more than survival of the group. This does not mean that he would try to save a stranger if he had the chance. Otherwise, he'll try to get himself and/or his friends out of there.Favorite Song: Hollywood Undead - Been to HellFavorite Food and Drink: Chicken Dumplings and MilkFavorite Color: Jade green[/spoiler][spoiler=Appearance: ]Eye Color: GreenHair Color: BrownSkin Hue: Average CaucasianHeight: 5'9"Weight: 140 lbs[/spoiler] [spoiler=Bio: ] Jensen was born to an average middle-class family. He was an only child and lived with both his mother and father, who both worked for a living. In his earlier years of school, he was always top of class class but it seemed that the older he got, the lazier he became. His grades dropped to a B+ or A grade average and didn't participate in as many school activities unless it was a required grade or class. He's only had two girlfriends over the years that didn't last any more than a month or so and after has a new 'best friend' each year because he never keeps in touch. When he's not in school, he'll be hanging casually with his friends, playing what little video games he had, or slinking around his house watching T.V. or sleeping. Right before the event, he was sitting in class, secretly listening to music when he noticed the commotion outside from his window-side seat. [/spoiler] [/spoiler] [spoiler=Sapphyre]"If that hand gets any closer I'll break it..." Name: Alyssa Ravencroft Age: 18 Grade: 12 Gender: Female Personality: Alyssa on her surface is very apathetic, and abrasive, having a morbid sense of humor about life. Alyssa has no filter what so ever, and will say whatever she wants whenever she wants, she has a way of asking not telling. She has a sharp wit, and makes ill-humored jokes to spite others, and make them visibly upset which she finds humorous. Alyssa approaches things in a very logical, and detached manner, and makes herself emotionally distant from others (often to the annoyance of said others) not letting her feelings get in the way of her decisions. Alyssa leaves nothing to chance and thinks several steps ahead of her opponent, making sure she has several back-up plans in case her original were to fail. She tends to show an extreme disgust towards those who are upbeat and happy, or overly positive on life, having a negative outlook on life herself. At her core Alyssa is a shy caring young woman, with an introverted disposition. The one thing she yearns for the most is someone who she can care for, and someone that she can share all her worries, and happiness with. She is naturally quiet and fragile in personality, and when she displays her actual personality she is quite anxious and easily upset. To those she cares about she is very defensive, and her feelings for them can cloud her judgment. Alyssa is also very in tuned to other’s feelings being able to pick up even the most subtle signs that people are upset. Alyssa herself has a lot of talent in the arts, and puts a lot of effort into all of her crafts. This is her way of expressing herself as most of her emotions she keeps pent up, and hidden inside herself. Talents/Abilities: (leave blank until you know you have been accepted so you can discuss with your team what you each want) Crush: (Can be decided along with talents) [spoiler=Appearance] Alyssa is 5’5” and weighs 125lbs. Alyssa wears black combat boots with a red trim. She wears a B cup size. Alyssa wears and over the shoulder bag, which has a peacock feather pattern, that she carries her laptop, phone, sketch pad, and various art supplies in. [/spoiler] Bio: Alyssa was born to a rich family who were always the center of the social scene, and with Alyssa’s anxiety this only made more anti-social than she originally was her emotions often being bottled up. As she never brought friends home, and her parents had little time for her Alyssa turned to other mediums to express her tightly pent-up emotions. Her first outlet was art, she would play music or draw to relax herself, especially as due to her anti-social nature she was bullied often in school, and with her parents so busy, running a business, and their constant parties they toke little notice in their daughter’s peril. This lead to Alyssa slowly becoming more gothic, in appearance and personality, which could also be linked to a bad habit she got into, cutting by the time Alyssa had reached the 6th grade she was cutting regularly to rid herself of the emotional pain others caused her, which caused her to begin wearing gloves to hide the marks she left on herself. Eventually Alyssa began having violent feelings towards others and would lash out at school, which incidentally caused her to end up in the Principal/Dean’s office a lot, and eventually was brought to the attention of her parents. Her parents chastised, which only added to her hostility, and having no good way to express her anger she came closer to mental instability. Alyssa began to feel as though she had no safe place to turn, constantly fighting with her parents at home, who now had time for her since she was being a problem child, and people bulling her at school. She would try get out of the house as much as possible, as to not deal with her parents, and frequently cut class, to see the two people who had become consistent in her life, her dance instructor and her gymnastics coach. When asked if she should be at home or was cutting class, Alyssa would feed the two women lame excuses, but they seemed to accept it as she was keeping her grades up and had begun to clean up her act not causing as many problems. Alyssa’s final pastime would be archery, which she fell in love with at first sight; it was a challenge for her making all the more fun for Alyssa. Alyssa would spend hours practicing with her bow using the wide spaces of her home’s large yard to practice, of course to avoid her parents she would practice near the very edge of their property staying out of sight. Within a few months Alyssa was a dead aim with the bow, and her agility due to dance and gymnastics improved her reaction time, and helped her stay quick on her feet. On the day of the outbreak Alyssa had been with her dance instructor when the announcement had come over the PA, and once she had heard the announcer’s screams she grabbed her bag which lay close by, and made a break for the door fearing for her life. Before she could escape the Dance Studio though one of the infected blocked her path, but her dance instructor gave her life up to allow Alyssa time to escape. Being as she was in a relatively unused section of the school Alyssa was easily able to make her escape without too much interference from other students or the infected. She decided that the Wood Shop room would be her best option as it had things that she could use as weapons, along with the scissors she carried as part of her art supplies. As Alyssa got closer to the Wood Shop room though the congestion became heavier, and she had to struggle to make her way through. Just as she was closing in on the Wood Shop an infected came after attracted by the screams of others around her, and in a desperate act Alyssa threw her scissors(which she had taken out of her bag earlier just in case a situation like this happened) piercing the infected through the eye, delaying it long enough for Alyssa to bar herself in the Wood Shop room, only to find five others already there. [/spoiler] [spoiler=Stalfos]"I'll get y'all outta here... even if I get my black ass boned in the process." Name: Alexandria A'bahki Age: 16 Grade: 10 Gender: Female Personality: There's hardly any getting past Alex when it comes to courage and nobility. She'll do anything she can to save someone in distress, and in the case of children, she's even willing to sacrifice her own life. As such, she's often the last one out of a dicey situation. However, when things aren't so tense, Alex tends to adopt a more of a relaxed and carefree personality, although her true colours remain deep inside. However, one thing to note about Alex is a strange medical condition. This is triggered similarly to pyrophobia, but instead of being scared of fire, Alex tends to become entranced by it instead, especially when a jet of flame narrowly misses her. She also loves the extremely hot days for some reason. Regardless, Alex will always remain a brave, noble and patriotic young woman, and nothing can take that away from her... least of all these accursed flesh-eating monstrosities known as zombies. But if there's anything in the world that would make Alex feel uncomfortable, it would be the idea of an interacial relationship. She doesn't like the idea of her African genes diluting any further than they did when her mother and father got together. Talents/Abilities: Pyrotechnics, Starting Pitcher Voice Actor: Reagan Gomez-Preston Crush: N/A Appearance: Alex stands relatively averagely, about 5' 6" in height, 137lbs in weight, most of this weight of which is invested in her breasts and buttocks. The only thing that isn't quite average is her bust-waist-hip ratio, which is precisely 37-29-34. Alex wears white undergarments, including a DD-cup bra, which contrasts with her dark skin colour. To go with her golden blonde hair, Alex has painted her fingernails and toenails gold as well, and wears golden eye shadow. And finally, she has several tattoos; one down each of her arms, one on her lower belly and one large one all over her back. Most of these are tribal, but the one on Alex's back is of a phoenix with its wings spread wide. [spoiler=Pic ][/spoiler] Bio: Before the outbreak, Alexandria A'bahki was just having a normal school life. Considering she had an African American father and a British mother, one would expect Alex to have been a complete outcast, but on the contrary, she was actually quite popular, but that in turn kind of got her into the wrong crowd rather quickly. Alex had gotten herself looking for deep trouble lately, as she would often go out partying, getting drunk and out of control, but it wasn't until she got some swift discipline from her father that she finally got her act together. This cost her her popularity to an extent though, as she couldn't take the egging on from her old friends any more, but her grades had at least improved. Still, Alex was rather bored, and was hoping the whole ordeal of school would be over and done with already. The next day was just her luck. Alex had decided to see if she couldn't sneak into the school pool during her English class when all of a sudden, she saw the infected man approach the small security team first hand. At first, Alex thought nothing of it and proceeded with her attempt to infiltrate into the pool, but another infected person had managed to catch the sound of a rattling gate, and slowly approached Alex from behind. Recognizing the person, but unaware he was infected, Alex immediately kicked him in the groin with her heel, but he immediately retaliated. Alex then punched the infected person in the eye just as she was about to get bitten, and then got out of there. It wasn't long before students bailed out of the school buildings screaming, but Alex managed to use this to her advantage. She had noticed earlier that the infected person that she attacked earlier had walked right past her, having been attracted to the screaming, so she figured she was nigh undetectable by the infected so long as she kept her mouth shut. Using this logic, Alex managed to get to the workshop unscathed, but her next mission was to get back home ASAP. Her father kept several weapons that he as a marine had used during the Vietnam War, so perhaps Alex and the other survivors could use those weapons to destroy the infected once and for all.

Name: Jaden McDaniel Age: 18 Grade: Senior Gender: Male [spoiler=Personality:] Jaden is your typical quiet guy, going about his life and minding his own business He doesn't talk much, but not to seem cool or anything, but simply because he likes the quiet. Due to his home being loud all the time silence is something he values. Though he isn't rude, and if you come up to him and speak he won't ignore you, but the conversation may be a bit dull. However, because he's silent most people stay away from him thinking that he is either weird or one of those 'arrogant cool' types. Though that doesn't prevent his desk from being bombarded by secret love letters. In truth he is a kind guy, you just have to get past his dull personality and get him to open up which he doesn't like to do. It's not that it's a big secret but he finds it annoying. The reason being is that people began to feel sorry for him and offer false sympathy which he has had and heard enough of. When it comes to manors he is very old fashion, meaning he is the one who holds open doors for females, gives up his seat and is generally mindful of females. Not to say his is rude to males, but he just believes in being polite. Jaden is also family oriented. He enjoys sports, being part of the basketball team as well as part of the chess team. Jaden's the kind of guy who likes to watch whats going on around him, and has a soft spot for children due to his circumstances and will often act out of character when it comes to them. Overall, he is generally a kind thoughtful person who people just need to work on getting close too. [/spoiler] Talents/Abilities: Gun Handling, Gun Customizer, Strategist, First-aid Voice Actor: J. Michael Tatum Crush: N/A [spoiler=Appearance:] Quite an odd choice of clothing but he is wearing a formal dress suit. The reason being is that he was to attend a mock interview when everything went crazy. That goes to show that even when the world goes to hell he can still look damn good.[/spoiler] [spoiler=Bio:] Jaden was born on September 15th, to Micheal and Jane Coulie who would, unfortunately, only live to see Jaden grow only to five. Their early death was due to a car accident with a large 18 wheeler. The driver of the large truck was nodding off at the wheel, but his parents hadn't noticed until it was too late. The truck driver nodded off and swerved into the highway lane. By some miracle Jaden survived only suffering a minor concussion, a broken arm and some small bruising and cuts. Pretty lucky since his parents were both killed on impact and he didn't have his seat belt on. After that he was placed in the hospital, using the money from his parent's life insurance to pay for the medical bills as well as their funeral. With his parents not having any siblings, and his grandparents too old to properly care for a young boy he was sent to an orphanage. He pretty much kept to himself, and only made a handful of friends. When people came to adopt and looked at him he didn't like how they tried to sympathize with him when he could see that most of them didn't really mean it. While at the orphanage he took up playing chess, and any other strategy game but mainly chess. Besides school, chess and his few friends time passed by pretty normally for him. As he got older, and his friends were adopted, he started interacting with the younger kids becoming sort of an older brother to them. He found he enjoyed helping the younger kids and was just as fulfilled when he saw them getting adopted as he was left behind. However, when he was 12 a middle aged couple came in and seemed to take a liking to him. Apparently the couple had been trying to have children but couldn't so they decided to adopt. Even after they heard his story he could see the mother felt sorry for him, but she didn't offer any of the predictable responses Instead she just smiled and touched his hand and for some reason that touched him in many ways. The couple adopted him and he wasn't the only one. The couple, Mary-ann and Jacob McDaniel, seemed to have some sort of mission to help as many kids as possible. Their house, which was quite spacious, was filled with 4 other kids ranging from 4-15. It was always noisy, lively and Jaden found he liked it. It was like he never left the orphanage, and he was able to easily fall back into his thoughtful big brother role. Though it understandably took some time to get used to all of the different people, and his new family he welcomed them knowing that his own parents wouldn't want him to dwell in self pity. Mary-ann was a nice woman and was easy to get along with. Jacob had a different way of bonding especially with his sons. Jacob had been in the military for 8 years, and after he was discharged he took up a gun hobby which he eagerly taught too his sons. Jaden surprisingly picked up on the mechanics of firearms pretty quickly, but even if he did it wasn't his favorite hobby. He did enjoy bonding with his father and siblings but found the activity too loud and flashy for his taste. Because of his father having come from the military he did demand discipline and was a stickler for manors, which was something that Jaden didn't mind learning. When it came too school he again kept to him self staying out of the crowd. However, he picked up basketball and joined the chess team. As for studies he isn't overly smart but not stupid either. He maintained a B average, sometimes getting A's depending on the material. He is very observant and will notice things or catch thing quicker than most. So all in all Jaden is a somewhat normal guy with a few perks thrown in. Now that all of this weird stuff is happening he is very worried for his family but can't seem to get in touch with them.

Admiral_Stalfos19 Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Question: Why're weapons off the app sheet? Are we meant to start off without them for whatever reason? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yosuke-kun Posted January 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Yeah, I want you guys to be creative with what you use. Also, how many highschoolers are gonna have a usable weapon at the start of an apocalypse? Unless you were planning to shoot up the school on the same day, you're probably not gonna have anything really useful. You didn't take a weapon before getting to the wood shop class because you had basically two minutes between leaving the class and getting caught up in the panic. Having brought this up though, I'd like to point out that there IS a reason aside from safety for starting us in a wood shop class room. Fans of the original series might understand where I'm going with this .3. So yeah there is a reason for starting us off naked. . . perhaps unarmed is a better choice of wording .3.

Kakashi Hatake Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 I'll finish reading the opening post later and have my app done shortly after. Is there a required amount of minimum lines in any part of the app? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yosuke-kun Posted January 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Nothing outside the usual, though I should have added the minimum amount of lines since there isn't really a requirement there. I'm gonna say a 5-6 sentence minimum on Bio and Appearance though. I'll add that too Kaka .3. EDIT: Updated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyng's Old Account Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Before I join this, from my experience of HOTD, the series is pure Zombies & Ecchi, the former which I despise, the latter which I adore, but know doesn't save the series. Therefore, I need to ask two questions: 1 - Do I need additional information regarding the series prior to joining? 2 - Will this be pure Zombies & Ecchi?

I did add an anti-ecchi rule (even if it is a minor one.), and the title is called DEAD Truth, so I'm focusing it more on the zombies and how the infection started since there was never any cannon reason for it given ._. Mainly it'll be trying to survive. In other words, no, this won't be just zombies and ecchi.

Kakashi Hatake Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Hey, I got another quetion for 'ya, yo. Does the school have a dress code? I mean, do they require a uniform or do they allow the students to wear their own clothes? I'm asking because it's an American school and there's a lot of schools without a dress code.
