One week since the outbreak, and you're out of options. The food's gone and your ammo's running low. If you don't get out of the city, you'll be dead anyway.
You and some other survivors have been hiding out at the police station, waiting to be rescued. But help never came.
Now it's time to take fate into your own hands.

<table align=center><tr><td>RULES
--- This is a Modern D20 game - basically D&D with guns, cars and zombies. We'll be using the D20 Modern rules.
--- You play a group of survivors who originally took shelter in the police station with my character. But now you're out of supplies, and have given up on being rescued.
--- Starting Level is 1.
--- All dice rolls must be made via the Iwaku Dicebox. Click below for Dicebox help.
We'll be using the Dice Box for our rolls. It can be found here.
When writing a post, use the dice box for any rolls you have to make. The code is /roll _d_, with the first space being the number of dice, and the second space being the type of dice. For example /roll 1d6, /roll 1d20, etc. Both numbers are needed for the code to work.
DO NOT USE A CAPITAL D. ONLY A LOWER CASE D WILL MAKE THE ROLLER WORK.
All rolls must have a description posted first, so that anyone who reads the dice box can see what you're rolling for. Also include your bonuses in this description (see example).
You can make test rolls if you like. Just post the word "TEST" before you make the roll.
I will be checking the dice box logs when I read your posts. Any rolls that don't fit what you've posted or don't have a description before them in the Dice Box will be assumed invalid and I will penalise you in-game for being a big cheating poopy head.
