2002, England, a group of Virologists sought a way to quell rioting and aggression altogether, mixing their virus with Ebola to help it spread. It mutated, producing the exact opposite Effect, the first test subjects, chimpanzees, when insane with rage, and began vomiting their own entrails out. They were released by ignorant animal rights activists.

28 days later.....Great Britain has been shut down, more than half the population dead or infected. Survivors hold in groups, and eek out a meager form of life in their struggle to remain uninfected.

28 Weeks Later.....It was believed the infection had died out, all those infected dying of starvation. The virus Broke out again, after a woman living in the quarentined sections of an abandoned London was found, a carrier of the infection, showing no symptoms. It was discovered that those carrying the rare genetic code for ocular Heterochromia (Irises sporting two different colors) were immune to the effects of the virus itself yet could still infect. A kiss from her husband was all it took and Hell broke loose again.

Age: 22

Profession before Outbreak: Medical Student

Appearance: Ignore the mismatched shoes and just assume she's wearing boots... O.o;
survivor_by_152mm-d4u6kws.jpg

Useful Skills/Talents: Given her background - a nurse's daughter who went into medical school herself - she's able to efficiently fix up most non-fatal wounds on the go, and works pretty well under pressure. She's relatively strong for her build with good stamina and a high pain threshold, but conversely her fighting style is lackluster at best and she only kills when absolutely necessary. Still believes there may be a cure for the virus.

Weapon(s): oddly heavy-duty, so-called "ceremonial" sword. Crowbar. Obtained a handgun, but no extra ammo as of yet.

Contents of your Bug-out Bag: 2 water bottles, 3 packs of caffeine strips, a few tins of food and as large a medkit as she could squeeze in on top of everything else.


Shout if I need to change anything.
 
Hey Kala,
I'll make a profile when I have my housemates computer to myself. :D
 
Kronas, You do know they aren't dead right? Just psychotic sick people?
 
ah man im sorry so how do i describe them like infected or something?
 
think of an enraged person, the hulk on a human level, covered in blood with horrible red eyes and vomiting their own guts
 
okay i understand what you mean
 
Don't fret about it, I should've said something about this fitting the zombie motif, however not being a true zombie apocalypse as they are'nt reanimated corpses.
