(So I just started using Chaoticshiny to randomly generate NPCs. Should I reveal the result or just the description or none of it?
Generator found here. Also, any nominations for group leader? My nominations are Moe (for being a badass), Jason (cop with skills and plans), Haruki (giving orders the first turn), and Jane(good at taking the initiative and was the leader the first time I ran this). Finally, keep in mind you are on the first floor of a 5 floor office building with a movie theater and a grocery store across the street. There's plenty to explore.)
Turn 8:Clair reloads her gun, and then moves over to the cage where she places her pistol to their heads and dispatches them both. (No rolls because it’s a pretty simple action)
Haruki grabs the money off the table and starts looting corpses. (5,4) He finds a medical kit, (3,4) a nice looking shirt that isn’t bloody, (3,3) and a deck of cards.
Moe heads off to look for food, seeing that Clair has already dispatched the zombies. (6) He spots a vending machine in the cafeteria full of healthy snacks and candy.
Robert applies a few bandages to himself (5) giving him 3 HP back. After apologizing to Robert,
Dr. Chomsky begins to patch him up. (6+1) Using his entire medical kit Dr. Chomsky restores Robert to full health and even increases it some (Robert now has 25 health). Dr. Chomsky then grabs some grenades and looks at the small pile of arms and ammo.
Jason continues to try and convince the women to come with the group. (3) Finally she agrees, as long as she doesn’t have to fight the zombies. She introduces herself as Clair Stone, and turns out to be a network analyst. With that done he goes to grab an assault rifle and a pistol for her, telling her it’s just in case. Jason then grabs a back pack, and fills it with a few knives and the two suppressed pistols he finds in the pile.
Jane starts searching the first floor of the building again. (6,4,5) As she walks around she finds a corpse with a machete sticking out of its back. She grabs the machete and moves on. (1,6) When she walks into the next room a closet opens and a tall middle-aged man who is obviously a priest from his clothes and a man who looks about 90 years old walk out. The priest brandishes a shotgun at Jane and asks, “What was all that gunfire about? Are you one of those cultists guys who were wandering about?”
John Johnson calls his girlfriend. He gets her answering machine.

Name: Jane Andrews
Gender: Female
Age: 46
Previous occupation: Restaurant Manager
Backstory: Having grown up as an abused child who was never popular in school, Jane's clever and careful and has mostly forgiven humanity for the torment done to her when she was helpless. She did graduate from high school and is quite intelligent; she might have gotten far in college but she wanted to work instead and was promoted well in various careers for being well spoken and dedicated. She started studying martial arts while still in high school, and in a sense she's still not grown up - she matured extremely early and started behaving with the restraint needed to survive the abuse she faced by the time she was four, but in many ways parts of her are still a child and could always be. She grew up with horror and has seen some of the absolute worst that human beings can do to each other; self control and control of her immediate environment is absolutely essential to her. So long as she can control herself, all actually is right in her world, no matter what monsters confront her or what form they appear as.
Religion: Animist (personal form)
