Closed for bios until further notice.
It has been fifteen years since The Beginning. Things seem to be settling down now, though you should never let your guard down. That's when bad things happen. Most of the Infected are thinned out and slow enough you can out run. Mostly these days, you need to worry about the Others. Especially if you're under thirty.[/hr]

Fifteen years ago, within months, a virus leaked across the globe. Nowhere was unaffected. The cause of the first few transmissions is unknown. However, transmission now days doesn't take much. Some of the blood on your skin or an opening in the flesh, or a bite. Scratches from the Infected has a probability of causing you to contract it, but it isn't guaranteed. Those who are infected might die, or they may somehow live through the fever and the illness plaguing them. That's when they become Infected. They feel no pain, they lose the ability to think, and they become aggressive. They're their own species now. We don't consider them human, but they technically still are.
The initial wave of infections wiped out two-thirds of the human race. The military bombed all main cities, whether there were reports of infected or not. Humans turned against humans. It's estimated that the actual infection took less than one-third of the world. The rest was by our own hands. Only five years after The Beginning, small civilizations began to appear. At first a group of people would create shacks and small villages in the middle of fields, forests, and islands. Then they began to take back small sections of cities that remained.
Several 'farms' began to appear. It's rumored that it is the remaining government and military. The farms at first took volunteers who were healthy in. When fewer and fewer people volunteered, they began their Round-ups. Scientists, doctors, young children, fit men, and women under thirty are now sought in vehicles. They are taken by force. We call those groups the Others.
Their farms are where they are re-creating the population by forcing the young women to have children. The men they put to work. Sometimes they build new cities or take over existing ones from the Infected and wildlife. The children, they raise in their bright, clean, cities. Never learning to fight or fend for themselves. While most of the remaining population is out in the Wastelands starving and dying, the Others are enjoying gourmet meals, fresh water, and electricity.
Nobody knows what happens to the women who are impregnated. Supposedly they are sent to the cities to live a lovely life after three children. Nobody is allowed into the cities, though. Not unless you volunteer.
