Deadocracy:OOC and characters thread.

Game

(H, B, D is still on just stuck by red tape and writer block(on how to remove one of the characters without sending Pawel into shock) so I do something I wanted to do earlier, but came up with it during a zombies games phase and thus save it for dryer times.)

The setting is 6 people wake up on a crash bus. They are normal people in a modern setting. There will be zombies, magic items(and spells, but they are rare compare to the items) and other things that are out of place for what you remember before you got on the bus. You are still in the same world it just gone to hell in the time you were out. I will pick the six.

Name: Francis Pines
Gender: Male
Age: 29
Backstory: Francis is a relatively easygoing guy, who never really was all that motivated during his pre-apocalypse life, shown by his having abandoned his plans in medicine as soon as it became clear that it'd require some effort. The sole exception to this being his questionable hobby of petty thievery. When faced with the end of the world, he responded with a resounding 'meh' and proceeded to loot the hell out of the local shops.

Spoiler: Character. (click to show/hide)

Name : Bas.
Gender : Male
Age : 23

Background : Bas was born paranoid, until he was 7 it was minor and largely ignored by those around him.
Then he was given a school project on the Mayan calendar.
The next day he refused to go to school and locked himself in his room to begin planning for the end of the world, in the 16 years since then he has trained and prepared to survive every event he could think of that would end the world.
This has resulted in him being well prepared to survive the end of the world but also being entirely unprepared to live in a normal world.
He spent a lot of time studying how to survive in the wilds, he learned how to make weapons out of anything he had to hand and to craft shelter out of the remains of animals or if needs be, out of humans.
He also spent a great deal of time working on his physical fitness and training to use old fashion weapons because they required no ammo or ammo could be crafted for them out of common materials and they result in far less noise.
In the process of this he discovered that he was also skilled at convincing other people to see things his way and was able to convince a lot of those around him that they should prepare for what he saw as an inescapable conclusion to the world.
Though scared of what would become of himself he also has a strange fascination with zombies and has a deep seated desire to have a zombie dog for a pet that is almost compulsive.
He suffers from extreme paranoia although oddly it is aimed at the world itself and not at people, he believes without a doubt that the world itself is trying to kill him and believes that the end of the world is it's final resort to try and kill him entirely unaware of how arrogant that sounds.

I find it odd that the nerd has below average Intelligence.

It's above average for a 3rd-grader!
...But yeah, I'll fix that. The backstory and stats parts of my brain weren't communicating.
