The year was 2015. The world had descended into another World War, although it had ended just as quickly as it had started. The governments of the world had dove into chemical warfare, for this was no longer a fair fight. Nobody knows who dropped the virus, "Virus X" as others called it, or when it had started, but all the survivors remember now is it swept over the world in the blink of an eye. What was once just another world war was now possibly the end of civilization as we know it.
Naturally, survivors had fled to areas that were once less populated. The north, the backwoods of the south, even west beyond the Rocky Mountains. There survivors began to find peace. The woods provided plenty of food, while the colder temperatures of Oregon and Washington made day's slightly more bearable. It was sort of a refuge for those who wished to survive easy, if it was possible at all.
As 2 years passed people began to think they are safe, but problems emerged. Some took to cannibalism saying the animals they hunted could become infected too. This was never proven to be true, but that didn't stop the rumor from spreading like wildfire. Some survivors began to ban together, create groups and families in broken down cities, finding comfort in numbers. Some roam alone.
Story
Survivors are flocking to the east coast to board the last boats to safety. This has brought them through the town Huber Heights, located in Ohio surrounded by woods and highways. Being in a far out place not many people have gone through the town leaving some supplies still there. A small group of survivors form there in hopes of making it to Norfolk, Virginia.

Rules
1. All Iwaku rules apply.
2. IC = drama, not OOC.
3. No godmodding, etc... Every character should have their weaknesses as well as their strengths.
4. Real face claims only
5. If you have an issue with drug and alcohol usage, social issues, different orientations, or anything of that sort, feel free to live now. On that note, steamy stuff has to fade to black and go to PM. I don't care if it's mentioned, just don't go beyond that. Please respect other people's boundaries as well.
6. Every character has an important role, so don't worry about your character not being important.
7. Please be literate.
8. Romance is okay, but it should not be the focal point for all relationships.
9. Originality is very much appreciated. Tell me your character's favorite color in your CS.
10. Do not physically maim another person's character without their permission.
11. You cannot be your own love interest, spouse, or anything of that sort. That kind of ruins the point of roleplaying.
12. Please note that I reserve the right to reject any character I feel is not up to standard.
13. Two character per person max.
14. Not everyone can be a weapons specialist or a retired military official.
15. Writing requirement is 2 or more paragraphs (5-8 sentences)
