  Welcome to our Walking Dead RP! Like any zombie roleplay, there will be action, gore and zombie killing, but at the heart of any RP within this genre is the twists, the turns, the drama, the heartache, and the joy of moral decisions that have both good and bad consequences.
  
  Everything you do and say could have consequences down the line. The walker you killed yesterday was actually the mother of the person you met today. That guy you refused to give food? He decided to take it anyway and killed your best friend. That little boy you helped? He came back with a large group to steal your supplies. In this world, each choice can mean the difference between life and death. Don't ever get too comfortable, because you never know when things will all go to hell.
  
  Of course, it's already there, isn't it?

  Among the Ruined was a roleplay that went on for a year on another website (Roleplayer Guild) and ended up with four "seasons". Now, we're bringing it to Iwaku with a reboot of sorts. The events of the past RP will be a part of the new RP's lore, but knowledge of the previous RP will not be required for any new RPers joining us!
  
  So, what's the plot you may ask? It is not quite set in stone, but generally we'll be looking at various communities living their lives amidst the zombie apocalypse. Most of the people of these communities are just trying to survive and have to worry about the hardships that come with that. Of course, there will be conflicts between the survivors.
  
  New players will start in and around the cities of Natchez, Mississippi and Alexandria, Louisiana, though the plots surrounding Alexandria have yet to really kick off. In Natchez, a community has settled within a fortified school once known as Morgantown Middle School. "Morgantown" will be where characters new and old alike will be colliding and attempting some measure of peace as they all try and coexist together. There is another group in Natchez involving a walled off apartment complex.
  
  Right now, we're looking for input from past or new players on plots that will run into the future. Any input on plot, characters, or locations is always welcome.​

  1) Absolutely no fighting in the OOC! You only get one warning, then your character(s) will be killed off and you will be banned from the RP.
  
  2) No overpowered characters. It's okay to have weaponry, but not everyone is survival trained and can make a rocket launcher with a pocket knife, some string and a potato. Be realistic with your character's skills and their weapons!
  
  3) An extension of the above rule-- We won't be accepting characters with military backgrounds. Characters with medical backgrounds will likely be asked to change as well. To avoid any conflicts it's best that you plan on your character having just been a regular person before the apocalypse hit. Stray from creating characters that have a particularly firearms-related background (Like someone who grew up hunting and is a skilled marksman).
  
  4) We don't have many limits when it comes to explicit content. Strong language is fine, and gore is more than likely to come up. However, absolutely no smut should occur. Romance is fine, but anything beyond kissing should fade to black. If you really want to RP that out, take it to PMs or the Libertine section (But make sure you're both of the correct age!).
  
  5) Killing of characters must be agreed upon, even NPCs. NPCs without a * next to their name are free to be moved around/controlled, required that their written personality/history is adhered to.
  
  6) All ideas are welcome! If you have any ideas for major plot-related ideas, characters. locations, etc. then please PM either any of the GMs.
  
  7) Before making any game changing decisions, please PM one of the GMs about it or discuss it in the OOC before posting it. This does not mean we need to make every decision for you, but MAJOR plot twists need to be approved by the GMs.
  
  8) You can have as many characters as you can handle. Do not ignore anyone and post regularly. If you can't post for a couple of days, let us know so we can move around your character. If you do not post in the IC or OOC or PM us for a significant amount of time, then your character will be made an NPC and likely become a walker/corpse. If you want to return after that, you will have to make another character.
  
  9) In that same vein, if you've been in the RP for some time and decide you want to go, the option for your character to become an NPC is there in case you ever return. Though NPCs are more likely to be killed off, the character just may be alive when you come back.
  
  10) People will die. It's a zombie survival RP. We ask that you strongly consider ideas for your character's death eventually, even if you don't really wish for them to die. While we will never kill off your character without your consent, no one is likely to survive forever in zombie fiction. Just keep the idea in mind when making your sheet.
  
  11) An important rule that some may take for granted: NO ONE IS IMMUNE. This is not "The Last of Us", this is a "The Walking Dead" RP. There is no cure and there is no immunity to the zombie virus. Everyone already has it. Your character can be working on a cure, but that is all that is permitted.
  
  12) Something we refer to as the "posting rule" should be in effect for every IC post. It is extremely helpful in keeping track of where everyone is. At the top of any post you make put in bold the name of the character you are currently playing, their location, and who you are interacting with. For example:
  
  Kim - Bus Stop - Steven
  
  If you are playing multiple characters in one post, just add their names in:
  
  Kim and Stacy - Restaurant - Each Other
  
  If there are multiple people in the same place and you don't know who you are interacting with at the moment, broaden the terms:
  
  Kim - Office - Everyone
  
  This way, no matter who replies, everyone who is currently in the office knows you might be interacting with them or can start an interaction.
  
  13) We reserve the right to add more rules if needed.​

[TheColourlessRainbow]

Appearance:

Brian Hollow

Before the Apocalypse:

After the Apocalypse:

Name: Brian Hollow

Age: 19

Skills: Computer skills, Cooking, Cloth sewing, stitching, first aid, gun knowledge, mythology knowledge, extremely fast runner.

Preferred Weapons (up to three): 22 pistol, a pocket knife,and a flashlight.

Personality: Cunning, Manipulative, Intelligent, prideful, quick to anger, lustful, and more.

Bio: Brian was a good child, he lived with his mother and father and his oldest sister for eight whole years, that was till his mother collapsed in their home and was rushed to the ER. Becoming diagnosed with a rare cancer, his mother stayed within the walls of the hospital. After a short two weeks, his mother had a stroke, causing the women to lose 50% of her brain, and caused the women to fall into a 3 long year coma. With a broken heart, and father who stayed day and night in the hospital room with his wife who was surely never going to wake up, Brian was left with his sister, and many other adults who where willing to take him in for the night. His life only went downhill after that. With his mother waking up after his 11th birthday, Brian was more the happy to rush to the hospital, only to find out that his mother's memory and many other functions were damaged among her stroke. Being transported into rehab to relearn how to speak, walk, and relearn who she and her family was, Brian barley saw his mother for another 2 years. Mean while, his father fell into drugs, pills, cocaine, anything the man could get his hands on. That's when the physical and emotional abuse began.






Simon: Simon is a small black cat that is only 3 years old, being taught to hiss when the living get near, and to meow when the dead are near, Simon has been a great assist for Brian when Scavenging. However, the cat does have one draw back, he does not like to be caged up, but to walk freely, making Brian sometimes consistently stop to make sure he doesn't lose him, or causing Brian to carry him in his arms.

Lucky: With a dog at the age of 7, Lucky is getting just a bit old. Still able to run and with no clear health issues, Lucky is one kind heart, but aggressive dog within the apocalypse. Being taught to attack the living after one warning growl, he offers great help while Scavenging. Lucky has also been taught to alert his master of any dead, then to escape, however, Lucky doesn't always do just that. Having been poked and tortured as a pup by a older, bald white man, the dog seems to be uncontrollable aggressive towards individuals who resemble just that.

Angeline

Name

Angeline von Trapp

Age

18

Appearance

Angeline stands at 5'5" and weighs a touch under 120 lbs, with a petite frame that shows she's clearly not used to much heavy work. Although she can play a nasty game of tennis or two. She has what can only be qualified as dirty blonde hair. In keeping up with her family's strict view on how they should appear, she usually keeps it up in a neat and tidy bundle. Despite it's labeling of 'dirty' it's far from it as Angeline takes special care to make sure she's always well groomed and prim for whatever may come her way. Be it her family or the walking dead. She has hazel eyes and she sees herself mainly as an Austrian-American due to haling from the Von Trapp line which went all the way back to Austria-Hungary and Maria Augusta von Trapp.

Skills

Oh ye don't worry there is a reason for this being here. I'll explain it below.

Hailing from a family who was known for being strict and on point to help perfect their musical career in Germany and abroad, Angeline is very musically gifted. Although her parents had taken up jobs that didn't involve singing as they hadn't found themselves as interested in it as those who came before them did, Angeline was an exception. She was absolutely fascinated by the history of her family and their musical roots in the Trapp Family Singers.

Her parents respected Angeline's desire to stretch her vocal chords and began paying for lessons when she was in the fifth grade. By the time the infection had rolled around, Angeline wasn't one to toot her own horn by any means of the word but she felt very confident in her ability. That said however this wasn't her only prowess however for as the family continued to stretch into the modern age, religion became a heavy part of the family. Angeline's parents especially were very heavy handed in their religious expression. Such as having a painting of the above in their living room.

In respect to those who may not share her beliefs or might not wish to be as open about them, Angeline is very understanding and will accommodate such views. That said however she's more than willing to speak to and help preach to those who do share the same views as her. This could come in handy when dealing with people who might be a bit on the crazy side but might be willing to lighten up when speaking to someone who understands their views.

Also while it might go against what the good book dictates, Angeline has found the time to make use of her father/mother sending her checks for her birthday to pay for self-defense classes while wandering the streets in between singing practice/recitals and the like. Just enough so that while there is still a risk of a strong enough man being able to overpower her, she does have a greatly increased chance to defend herself against any potential attackers. So taking this into account and her religious upbringing one could almost say that she..

Or something to that effect. :|

Preferred Weapons:

She usually carries around some pepper spray in her purse around if necessary. But considering it's relative lack of usefulness on the undead, she's more than willing to go hand to hand with whatever weapon she's capable of acquiring. Although she'd prefer it not to be a firearm of some kind. In her travels she's become quite adapt with using a stray steel fence rod for sweeping any undead aside if they become too clustered for her to feel safe in going hand to hand with them.

Something like one of these bad boys.
Personality

I'd like to ask you to think of the absolute sweetest candy you could ever possibly think of. The stuff absolutely rots your teeth if you were to have too much of it at one time. That would be the perfect analogy for Angeline. Knowing full well due to unfortunate past experiences, some people out in the world don't take quite kindly to her religious nature. Which would be fine in her eyes as long as her own views aren't challenged. She'll always try to be accommodating for any other person's needs, putting them before her in any situation. Even in a life or death one, unless there is no other plausible options at hand, Angeline would give her right leg to help out those who desperately need it. Thus she always tries to see the good in people even if they didn't demonstrate that they were nice people to begin with.

But this hasn't always turned out the best results for Angeline. It's gotten her criticism from her friends and even her own family who believe she's making herself too much of a push-over and that while she can follow the good lord's words, she shouldn't subject herself to simply being the religious doormat they walk over and scrape their shoes on whenever it's convenient for them. Examples of this negatively effecting Angeline in such a manner have lead her to contemplate or even attempt something as taboo as suicide. Thankfully she's always been talked down or convinced otherwise of going through with said attempts. Taking the outbreak into account, Angeline has found it somewhat harder to try and be short with people or be more suspecting. When she realizes that entire families could have been ruined as a result, which included hers. But she tries to keep true to what she had been taught her entire life and help out those who plead for it. Even if it could end up biting her right on the rear.

Biography

To really understand Angeline, I think a little history lesson is in order. I'll try to keep it brief so as not bore you guys so let's go!

Maria von Trapp was born in the sovereign entity of Austria-Hungary and was considered the matriarch of the Von Trap Singing Group. But they didn't exactly have an easy start as history would go on to show. By the time the 1930s rolled around, the Trapps were not at the level of fame and fortune that they would have garnered later on in their careers. In fact one could say that the biggest enemy at the time was none other than money itself.

Her husband Georg had tried to do what he could to bolster their funds by transferring his savings. The time wasn't exactly the best for making money just about anywhere, Austria included. Thanks to a little event known as the Great Depression, the world was down on hard times. In an attempt to try and stay on their feet, the Trapps decided they could do without a couple of people around the house to clean and cook. All things that they could handle themselves and save money on by not paying someone else to do the menial work for them. However it seemed luck would have finally found the Trapps for a local archbishop had heard of the hard times befalling the family and decided to throw them a bone. Which ended up helping to kick off their singing career!

Moving on through the decades, we reach what is known as the present day. To the average person at least. Angeline Von Trapp is the latest daughter of the Trapps legacy. She was naturally a curious child who often went around searching for her toys and asking the questions of how they worked and why she was so lucky to have them when she had seen other children who didn't have toys like hers. Her parents being big on religion informed her that she was simply being smiled down upon by the good Lord which stayed with Angeline as she grew older. She read through the bible once she got a good enough idea of how she'd be able to take in the context of it all.

But while religion may have had a hand in helping to create how nice and helpful Angeline was, it was doing some digging into the history of her family line that sparked her real passion. Which was to sing and sing she could. Her parents approved of their daughter finding herself a hobby to indulge herself in and one that related to their family! So they paid for her lessons and she'd go everyday barring the ones where she was simply too taken by the flu to attend as happened to most people.

But while she always felt deep in her heart that good would triumph over evil, she couldn't help but feel nervous about taking the walk from school to the place where her singing practice was held. So using money that her father generously provided her, she was given basic knowledge which while it didn't make her an expert fighting master, did even the odds somewhat if someone tried getting frisky with her.

Things seemed to be on top of the world for Angeline! At least until she hit rock bottom and hit it hard. Angeline had generally made it a point to avoid most parties set up at her school because she knew from secondhand knowledge that most of them were just ploys to try to get the richest kids going to get alcohol as the others had parents who would never approve of the idea. Hearing that another one of those parties was going to go down, Angeline was initially quick to brush it aside. She could find something to occupy her time. But after some prodding by her friends, Angeline finally decided to go. Because she had least had some idea of how to defend herself if things went south right?

Well, for a while she did seem to enjoy herself! Having fun with her friends and singing on the karaoke stage that had been set up. But little did she know of the girls who themselves had gotten particularly inebriated and decided that taking photos of the girl who had made it a point not to touch alcohol until she was of the proper age taking a few swigs and posting it to their social media. Upon seeing the photos as the views on them increased they didn't escape the sight of Angeline's family. The fight that broke out left so many things said that Angeline would come to regret. But it ultimately concluded with Angeline deciding that while she still loved her family dearly, it was clear that they both needed some time separated from each other. Using what money she had to rent out a decent hotel room, Angeline tried to think about how to go about reproaching her family when the situation eventually cooled down. Unfortunately for her it only continued to heat up. She heard news reports of what sounded like people who resembled shambling corpses making their way around and attacking people.

"Oh god! If these were true than.." She placed a hand quietly to her mouth as she never mentioned the lord's name unless it was in prayer. But this was more serious than any sermon she had been to. The dead rising to eat the living didn't seem possible. But it was then that the TV's image began to fade in and out of static.

Scriiiiitch! Scrrrrrritch!

Something was clawing at her hotel door! What if it was someone who had been injured by one of these, these 'walkers' as she had heard them labeled by some of the news casters. But what if it was a creature itself? She couldn't afford to take any chances. Not while her family's life still hung in the balance. So making her way into the bathroom as the scratching at the door began to grow more irritated and the door could have been heard idly shifting from side to side.

Almost as if an undead creature who's sole desire was to consume the flesh of the living was having a difficult time with articulation. Noticing what appeared to be a window in the bathroom, she quickly grabbed a small stool that had been placed in here for the previous occupants she guessed. Balancing it as well as she could in such an unsteady location as the tub, she climbed up and unlatching the windows began to let herself out. Dropping down as lightly as she could which was still quite the challenge, she could have heard the distinct sound of shuffling turning in her direction and a low raspy moan escape into then nightime breeze.

She was terrified out of her wits to say the least. But walkers or no walkers, she had to get to her family and fast! Who knew what kind of danger they could be in?

Continued in my other character's bio! Which I'll try to bring up at some point later today. But sooo tired.

Vincent

Name
Vincent Jackson

Age

29

Appearance

Vincent clocks in at about six feet with brown hair and lightish brown hair. He has some stubble indicating he's had facial hair but always shaves it off before it comes out in full. Before the outbreak and even after it his attire is usually settled of a dull green t-shirt and purple jacket combined with a pair of jeans.

Skills

What? Dancing could be good for moral! : <

But in actuality, Vincent's actually pretty good with mechanics and the like. This is partly taken out of necessity due to him spending a bucket-load of cash before the outbreak to get a car that looked dead on point with Stuntman Mike's guy from Death Proof. Being a huge fan of Tarantino's work, he read up all he could on how to maintain the car and even took some automotive classes in college and such.

But Vincent's real passion was in movies and more specifically Quentin Tarantino's films. Having taken a part in his college's film class, a lot of his speeches revolved around finding the messages or implications of some of Tarantino's films. Such as the superman speech Bill gives near the end of Kill Bill Volume 2! That was some pretty deep stuff and enough to fill an entire essay with in Vincent's eyes!

This passion for movies has left Vincent quite the talker which could prove useful in tense situations which require someone to try and smooth things out. That and he could also try to use it to get in with people who might have things he or his group need but aren't too keen on sharing.

Also his admiration for Tarantino's films has lead him to try and buy the closest things he could get to the actual weapons used in his ultra-violent movies! Some of which have proved quite handy in dealing with Walkers!

Preferred Weapons:
9mm Star Model B(Jules's gun!)

Winchester Model 1912 (Jacob's Gun from Dusk Til Dawn)

Buck 120 Bowie Knife

Personality

You know how I asked you to think of the sweetest candy for Angeline? Carrying on that same analogy, Vincent could be described as a warhead. He's always bouncing off the walls with ideas and things to talk about. Namely around his idol Quentin Tarantino! This gives people the impression that's some kind of stuck up film snob who disregards anyone who's not up to Tarantino's standards. But this really isn't the case. Vincent is more than willing to plop down and watch a romcom with friends if he had the time. Or well friends who'd be down for that. He's still an easily approachable fellow however and is more than willing to listen to whatever problems you may have.

But he hopes that you have something worthwhile to offer him or his group because otherwise your ass is getting booted. By booted that's referring to you being knocked down a peg or two down his list of importance. It's nothing personal really! But he's seen From Dusk Til Dawn and you don't get a pass 99% of the time for being the nice understanding guy who does everything for everybody!

Biography



Vincent "Marion" Jackson was born and raised in Jackson, one of the largest towns in Mississippi! The capital in fact and while his parents had named him after the city, Vincent always claimed his name was inspired by Vincent Vega from Pulp Fiction and Sam L. Jackson. But nobody really bought it despite his insistence.

Vincent was always an energetic child who couldn't be stuck to one thing for too long. He often took parts in plays when he got the chance to try and become an actor for the movies! So that when he got older maybe he could star in a big name movie and get lots of fans and money! His parents didn't really think much would come of it and they weren't necessarily big fans of the schlop Hollywood was turning out anyway.

They were even less enthused when Vincent began watching Reservoir Dogs and claimed what a masterpiece it was. This lead to argument after argument from his parents about how Tarantino was a loud mouthed hack who didn't know his head from his ass. But Vincent claimed to understand the message that Tarantino was trying to send and it was from that point forward Tarantino would have become Vincent's shining beacon of admiration when it came to film.

Taking as many film classes as he could in high school and eventually college, Vincent saved up his money as best as he could before eventually getting enough to buy a car alike to the one Stuntman Mike used.

This was the bad boy that he felt everyone should have had in their yards! Someone's walking past and looks like a suspicious character? Flash the headlights at them and show off the skull resting right aboard the front of the car! That could be their skull if they weren't careful. Loving his car, Vincent learned all that he could about cars to maintain it as best as he could and taking it in for routine maintenance work and such.

When the outbreak finally occurred however was when the car would prove most useful. As would Vincent's fanboying. Wanting to see if his family was okay despite the disagreements they may have had in the future, he drove off to greet them. Only to be confronted with the sight of walkers shambling towards him. It pained Vincent to no end about what he had to do. But if Quentin had taught him anything, it was that even your family wasn't safe. So taking out his 9mm, he turned towards his family and as his voice began to tremble he asked shakily.

"English..Motherfuckers. Do you s-speak it..?"

*Hisss*

BANG! BANG! BANG!

The collective sound of three thuds hitting the floor was enough to signify to Vincent that the deed was done and he'd never be the same again. But was anyone truly the same after they had to gun down their family to prevent them from turning you into one of them or munching on you like a t-bone steak? He honestly wasn't too sure. But he knew he couldn't linger around here much longer. His car was starting to run out of gas and that wasn't a good sign by any stretch of the imagination.

So it may have been some kind of fate that brought these two together. For they had no idea who the other was and had they, one of them probably would have thought the other was too obsessive over this director. But stopping as he noticed what looked like some average looking girl making her way along by herself, Vincent parked the car and called out to her. Which in hindsight was probably a bad idea.

"HEY! YEAH YOU! THE ONE WHO'S RUNNING!"

The girl slowly came to a stop and shot a withering look Vincent's way. What was this idiot doing?! She hadn't been around these creatures for long but she imagined that some loud mouth yelling was probably going to attract them! Still he seemed pretty persistent. Watching him get out of his car and head towards him, she quickly started on her way again.

"Would you hold on a second? I dunno if you noticed but it looks like rotting people are getting up and attacking us non-rotting people. You don't exactly look like the type who'd last too long out here. So why don't you come back with me to the car? I got weapons for us and still got gas for quite a while!"

"My father said I should never go anywhere with strangers."

"..For fuck's sake, did he say that applied in occasions of being chased or shambled after by these guys?" Vincent exclaimed exasperated as he placed a hand on the girl's shoulder which got him a quick shot to the nuts and repeated smacks to the head as the girl stood over him now that he was down upon his knees.

"NO! MEANS! NO!"

"Jesus Christ, fine! Go ahead and get yourself munched! I was only trying to help.." Vincent whimpered as he slapped her hands away and started of back towards his car. All the while holding one hand to his groin because man she really packed a punch for someone who seemed so frail. Looking over her shoulder as she saw the man make his way off, she could also see some walkers making their way closer as a result of the disturbance. That she hadn't really helped since she partook in some screaming as well. She supposed that hanging around in a car wasn't such a bad idea. She had also attacked the man without really getting to know him which went against her usual philosophy of trying to see the best in people.

"Oh darn it..Excuse me!" She yelled as she made her way after Vincent once he had reached his car door. Shooting a brief glance to the glove compartment where he kept his pistol, he leaned on the door and threw up his hands.

"What? Come to kick me in the gonads some more before the creatures eat us alive?"

"N..No I actually wish to apologize for that and I'd like to tag along if at all possible."

"Oh really! You'd like to come with me! I thought I was the stranger who you thought it was appropriate to kick in the nuts!"

"I was wrong! I shouldn't have done that. It's just that I've been so high strung because of all this and my family.."

Family. That brought to mind the images of what Vincent had to do to his own family. Were he on his own still the images may have been enough for him to contemplate giving up the fight. But with this girl seeming genuine in her apology, he groaned and motioned for her to get into the passengar side. Once she did so, he'd make his way in and quickly drove off before any Walkers got too close.

"So...You got a name? Or am I gonna be content in calling you Ms. Ball Stomper?"

"Ahem. I'd greatly prefer if you not call me such a thing. I'm Angeline von Trapp..What's your name?"

"Vincent Jackson."

"Oh! Like the city? That's cute..If you don't mind me saying anyway."

"I actually kinda do. Because it's named after Sam L. Jackson. Not the city! No matter what my parents said.."

"Oh. Okay."

As the two settled into silence for their ride or however long it took to ware out the little bit of gas within Vincent's car, idly Angeline wondered if she'd made a mistake in joining up with this man. Maybe she had and maybe she hadn't. She supposed that the good lord would watch over her and hopefully him as well..

[Klutzy Ninja Kitty]

Appearance:

Name: Andy Larson

Age: 12

Skills: Andy is good at rigging up electronics, video games, mathematics, and picking locks.

Preferred Weapons: Although he is terrible at using weapons, he carries around a pocket knife. His uncle is the one who does most of the fighting for them.

Personality: For the most part, Andy is a rather blunt kid, who comes off as rude quite often. He can also be passive aggressive and braggy when it comes to things he's good at. Although, he is much nicer to kids his own age or younger, he can come off as a brat to older folks.

Bio: Before the apocalypse, Andy was sent away by his rich mother and father to a boarding school. It was a very harsh school that taught its students a very high level of education. When the apocalypse started, his Uncle Jake arrived to the school to pick up Andy, telling him his mother had died, but had asked him to bring Andy somewhere safe. Ever since then, the two have been together.

 

[Klutzy Ninja Kitty]

Appearance:

Name: Jake Henson

Age: 27

Skills: basic home living skills, basic survival skills, trying knots, lifting very heavy amounts of weight, using a dowsing rod

Preferred Weapons: shotgun, handgun, army knife

Personality: Jake is as gentle and kind as they come. He has a genuine concern for others, even those who treat him poorly, and it takes a lot to make him made. He can put up with a lot of abuse and continue to be nice to someone for quite a while. Being nice could also be a weakness for him, as he could come off as too nice and allow people to walk on him.

Bio: Jake has been 7" tall ever since he was in high school. Because of this, he naturally fell into playing basketball and other sports--although he didn't care much for sports. After graduating high school, he began training to be a law officer, but dropped out after finding it uninteresting.

Shortly after dropping out of his training, he was involved in a car accident. The accident, mostly his own fault, killed a small child and injured his parents. He went to jail for a short time because of this, but got out because it was proven the accident wasn't entirely his fault.

It wasn't long after he was released that the apocalypse started. He fled to his sister's home to try and find a safe place during the hard time, but she managed to die while they tried to escape. Before dying, she asked Jake to find her son, Andy, and look out for him.

Question from QT; Since the group seems to already be at the school, do you want them to continue to go towards Morgantown school or leave? He thinks they should leave, and go back to the Wal-Mart, or something in that aspect.

They aren't at the school yet. It's a plaza called Morgantown Plaza as it's also on the same road.

Even if they did turn around and leave, the people of Morgantown are still gonna be wary of them.

This way, the people inside the community could go out and look for them and help them. @Atomyk
