The Rising Dead, Fight For Your Lives!
« on: November 20, 2011, 08:11:39 am »

The world was full of prosperity and wonderous technology. Airships filled the skies and large regiments of musketeers protected the lands.

Until They came.

Living carcasses rose and swept away the land. People were eviserated in the streets, rising again as zombies.

You are part of  five survivors, onboard an airship. You have a name, a race, a proficient ( using DF skill levels ) skill from your old life. I.e Musketeer And 10 scavenged items. Food is measured in satchels lasting 1 week. Drink is measured as flasks lasting a week.

Good luck....



You'll need it.

Is there magic in this setting?

Judging by the fact people use muskets, a single shot flint lock is most like the height of pistol technology.

Just to ask: How is this whole thing going to play out? I might be in, but...I don't really understand how this is working.

Name: Malakai Mushi
Race: Bosmer (Wood Elf)
Proficient: Marksman

Items
Willow Composite Bow
Leather hood
Leather armor
Leather boots
2 Satchels of food
2 Flasks of water
Steel dagger
Woolen cloak

Bio: A wood elf descended from a long lineage of adventurers, Malakai earned his surname when he defeated the Great Evil Mushi. He carries his finely crafted *Willow composite bow*, and always wears his supple leather armor. The only wish that Malaki has ever known is to explore, which he has done profusely in his short life.

(Consider me a "Temporary" application. I might (MIGHT) not play if I don't like how it works. Maybe some extra detail? Thanks!)

Edit: If there's magic, I may edit my character.

This all sounds good. It's a multibarelled pistol.  There is magic, but around 1/80th of the population can use it. Fireballs, head asploding, it's all good.
The airship ( insert name here )  took off from Eos City in a cloud of dust. It's large propellors swung in the wind as it drew away. The rag-tag crew consisted of five survivors from varying backgrounds. A sharpshooter. An airship captain. An I don't know. ( What is that armour and what does it do? ) A troll. ( What's homestuck? ) A medic. These people were stronger than most surviving the first three weeks. There is  now a lingering question. Where do we go?
