Here are the rules:
There will be six players, and you can make up whatever background or personality you want. Every character is equal. There will be no skills or abilities, only a d12 dice and your weapon.
So the setting is this. You are six survivors of a zombie apocalypse. Together, you must use your wits to survive. You will gather resources, travel from building to building, fight off zombies, and more. The more specific rules are:
1. Every day, each of you consumes 1 food and 2 water. Each turn, you may scavenge from your surroundings for more food and water.
2. Each of you has five health. A zombie's attack takes out 2 health. The zombies themselves have seven health, unless you can destroy their brain, which kills them immediately.
3. You may get weapons. Melee weapons, such as knives and bats, will have a damage rate per attack. Guns will be stronger weapons, but they'll require you to scavenge for ammo. Your bare fists only do one damage, with no possibility of a headshot.
4. I will be using a single 12 sided dice to determine the outcome of scavenging and battles. For example, you have a knife that does two damage. If you roll a 6, you do just two damage, the exact damage ability of the weapon. You roll a a 7 or more, your enemy receives progressively more damage. If you roll a 12, that's a headshot. Likewise, if you roll a 5 or less, your attack gets progressively worse, with 1 being a total miss.
5. Every turn, the six players must vote on whether to move to a new safehouse. If this is the decision, I will tell the players about the surrounding buildings, and they must vote on which one to go to. Once in a safehouse, a player can barricade the safehouse once per turn, up to three times. Only one player may do this in a single turn, however.

Personality:
Once again, every player will start out equal, with no equipment. You must scavenge for weapons and other equipment as well. I don't care if your character was in the military, he goes barehanded. I will change the rules if they are too difficult, complicated or annoying.
So, anyone in?

Has a lot of self confidence, and enjoys a challenge. Dislikes displays of obvious stupidity (to her), and doesn't have much in the way of sympathy to those who endanger or try to bully others, either on purpose or not-yet she can be protective of those that earn her respect, which is not very easy-by her own admission, Rebecca's standards are high.
