I know that there are many Zombie Survival RPGs out there. What makes this thread different from others is that you will have time to prepare for the apocalypse!
This game takes place exactly one week before the zombie apocalypse. You should use this time to prepare (e.g. barricade, gather supplies, etc.).
Here is the character sheet that you will use:
Name: Gender: Age: Bio: Status: Healthy Primary Weapon: None yet Secondary Weapon: None yet Melee Weapon: None yet Now divide 20 points between these three skills: Strength: Endurance: Dexterity:
I'll post more stuff later if I think of anything else.
Name:Jaden Leech Gender:Male Age:24 Bio:Lived in San Francisco all his life and has been working as a carpenter.Has been out of work for a while and his girlfriend is pressuring him to get another job. Status: Healthy Primary Weapon: None yet Secondary Weapon: None yet Melee Weapon: None yet Strength:5 Endurance:8 Dexterity:7
Name: Ransing "Werewolf" Bluyd Gender: Male Age: 27 Bio: Born with an extreme case of Hypertrichosis. He was shunned by his family, and raised by wolves. He is now a mercenary. Status: Healthy Strategy: Defend Inventory: Food, medicine Primary Weapon: P90 Secondary Weapon: Glock Melee Weapon: Sledgehammer Strength: 8 Endurance: 6 Dexterity: 6
Then I would ask what you do next. You would reply, I would post the results, and so on.
James Smith shot the zombie's chest! It had no effect!
Zombie bit James!
James shot zombie in the head! Zombie died.
Now I'll explain what the stats are for. Strength and dexterity are for close combat against zombies, while dexterity is for the longer fights.
If you have a weaker/stronger strength/dexterity stat than a zombie, you are more/less likely to get grabbed by a zombie
Endurance, however, is different. A zombie has no endurance, so only your endurance will count. The lower/higher your endurance is, the sooner/later you will tire.

OK.
You decide to check out the infected town.
The town is strangely silent. And this is a town known for being loud.
Suddenly, a zombie starts lumbering towards you!

You enter the building cautiously, wondering what the inside will look like.
The interior is just as ornate as the exterior. You wonder why such a serious-sounding company has such a fancy building.
You make your way to the front desk.
"Can I help you, sir?" The lady at the counter asks.
"I was just wondering what this building is." You reply.
"Well, this company is called the Impending Zombie Apocalypse company, shortened to I.Z.A., as shown on our sign. This company is dedicated to the prevention of that. We're willing to help anyone who believes in us. Are you interested?"
This reminds you of your dream.
Do you believe them?
a) Yes
b) No

You wake up one morning from a very weird dream. Here is basically what happened:
In the dream, a man came up to you, and told you that you had one week to prepare for the impending zombie apocalypse.
"Zombies!?" You exclaimed. "They don't exist! How can there be an apocalypse?"
"See for yourself." The stranger pointed to several zombies lumbering towards you. "Prepare." Then the stranger vanished.
You turned towards the zombies. You looked around, but there was no weapon of any sort. You tried to run, but you were stuck to the ground. You could only watch in horror as they got to you.
Then you woke up.
"I wonder what it means." You say to yourself as you get ready for work.
As you are walking down the road, you come across an ornate building with "I.Z.A. Co." written on the front. You look around, and see that no one else is paying attention. You wonder why. Then you remember that you have to go to work.
*****
When you are finished with work, you remember that strange building you saw. You wonder if you should look around. On the other hand, however, you are pretty tired.
What do you do?
a) Enter the building
b) Go home to rest
