Title: The 'Infected' IC thread is here (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=531880&highlight=infected)

Plot Summery: An unknown virus infects people in a city in Green Hawk's colony, but the virus is only in the air for 24 hours which in that time over 1 million people are 'infected'. The virus can only infect living organisms though the air, not by skin contact or blood contact. Out a population of 2 million, over 1.9 million get 'infected'. The 'infected' will get an adrenaline rush and an increased heart beat which in turn causes the 'infected' to have more blood then normal. The majority of the city's population gets infected and kills any living thing in sight including other 'infected'. 'Infected' are much more stronger then 'uninfected', they are blind, but have better hearing and smell. They also aren't dumb asses. They can still think human thoughts, but they have lost their free will and will only think so that they can kill. The 1st Armored Division based at the colony surrounds the city and kills anything that tries to get in or out. Green Hawk then gathers samples to make a cure, but by the time a cure is made and made into a weapon it is to late A.K.A the end of the rp. The ending should be Green Hawk soldiers moving into the city looking for survivors and 'curing infected' or killing them.

Who can I be in this story?
Colonial citizen in the city who survives
An 'infected' (Yes, you can be a zombie!)
Green Hawk soldier (I'll TG you more info if you pick this, but I don't think any of you want to be one or even a squad >_>)
Special Forces from your nation (Get a sample of the virus to see if you can make it into a bio weapon or anything else you can think of)
Anything you else you can think of
NOTE: Info below

Colonial citizen in the city who survives:
Survive and get away from the 'infected. Try to get out the city and get pass the Green Hawk Army Division unseen (they will kill you if they see you, no getting around it). Or you can just survive until Green Hawk makes the 'cure', makes it into a weapon and 'cures' all the 'infected'. Find other survivors, survive together and anything else you can think of. Do as you please as long as it makes a good story.

An 'infected' (Yes, you can be a zombie!):
Kill, kill, kill and did I say kill? Kill everything you see, thats the name of the game and live long enough to kill yet again. There are rules though, they are...
1.) 'Infected' will kill everything including other 'infected'. Which means no gathering of 'infected' to rule the world
2.) No taking on 2500 Green Hawk soldiers in the division on your own. Well, you can attack the division, but don't expect to win...
3.) You still have a higher mind even though your 'infected'. You can use guns, think up plans and other things. Just remeber your main goal is to kill
4.) Oh yeah! DId I say kill?

Green Hawk soldier (I'll TG you more info if you pick this, but I don't think any of you want to be one or even a squad >_>):
Why do I bother? Okay, here we go. As a soldier your job is to follow orders or if you pick a Captain as your rank then you give the orders... That a higher rank gave you! Thats it... Or! You can be a soldier who was in the city at the time of the 'infection'. Thus being locked in the city ('uninfected' mind you or 'infected' if you want) trying to survive. Again, if you think of something else go ahead. Highest rank I will allow is a Captain, but if you can persuade me, I might let you get a higher rank. ;)

Special Forces from your nation (Get a sample of the virus to see if you can make it into a bio weapon or anything else you can think of):
I think you get the picture here, but if you have a different mission in mind then please be my guest. Also, the Division is looking towards the city, but do keep an eye out for people trying to get in the city so you do have to sneak pass them. The best way to get in the city is by a HELO jump (there is a large flat park in the center of the city that you can land on). How you get out is up to you. I'll TG you info on what the Division's defenses are made up of.

Anything you else you can think of:
If you need help here in knowing what this is then you shouldn't be on the computer right now...

What am I rp'ing as?
I'm going to rp 1st Armored Division troops, Special Forces who's mission is to patrol the city and rescue what survivors they can. Thats it. Everything else is under your control. Again, don't go nuts.

PLEASE DO NOT PUSH MY PATIENCE. DON'T NUKE THE CITY, SEND AN ARMY, INVADE GREEN HAWK/COLONY OR ANYTHING ELSE OF THAT LEVEL. HOWEVER, WANT TO BLOW UP A BUILDING? BE MY GUEST. WANT TO MAKE A BIO WEAPON FROM THE VIRUS? LET ME GET YOU A SAMPLE. WANT TO ROLE PLAY THE CHICKEN DANCE? THEN MAKE SURE THE 'INFECTED' CAN'T GET TO YOU BEFORE PLAYING THE MUSIC. ANYTHING OF THAT LEVEL WILL ALSO BE ALLOWED. ALSO, I HAVE A RULE THAT I WANT TO TALK ABOUT REALLY QUICKLY.

There are two basic types of rp'ers when the subject of '2 liners' comes up. The one's who don't give a dimes worth of the length of their/someone else's post. Then you have the ones who think '2 liners' ruin rps. Which is why I have a simple easy to follow rule. No '2 liner' posts. In truth I don't care about things like this, but there are rp'ers who don't like it and remember, if this is going to be open I need this rp to be good enough for everyone. If you have a past of '2 liners' then don't worry. Everyone can join, but if you write a '2 liner' then we got a problem... So please do your best in writing more then two lines. Try five at the least.

'2 Liners' are post that are really short and usally don't seem to have any detail in them.
Example of '2 Liner': "I nuke joo! I win! said ranbom guy".!.

Here is an idea to help you get an understanding of the colony and what it looks like.
A small island with nice beaches all around with one large city (think a smaller version of Manhattan). The city has a beach on the East side, but all other sides of the city is forest or meadows. Sorry, but not map :(

If you have questions just ask and I will answer them for you.

Oh, and can I be a group of survivors?

Okay, knock yourself out and I'll make sure to keep track of the time next time.

Obligatory survivor/stranded soldier with the genetic variance that gives him resilience/unique metabolic reaction to the virus? Every zombie RP needs the non-zombifiable dude, just like every zombie game has them. :)

You want to join or... What? :confused:

How much intelligence/rationality/non-killatude remains to the infected?
Is it 'See living thing = kill' or can they pick and choose or even avoid killing certain people?

I do, as the guy that really isn't categorizeable.

A la Sgt. Nathan Hale for "Resistance: Fall of Man"

Or Alice, from the Resident Evil movies.

I was hoping to play that character. Every Infection/Zombie/Undead story needs this character. I want to be him/her.

The level of intelligence is all up to you. Go nuts. :D
But is it 'See, Kill' or is there discretion in if the spotted persons die now or later?

Also any marks or signs that someone is infected(save perhaped a slightly flushed look) or do they look exactly like a normal person and its just the brain that's been tweaked by the disease?

Really it's the level of infection, the longer you are infected the more blood thirsty the infected becomes. For the marks, with all the killing going on there will be a lot of blood on them, but other wise no. No marks. The brain and muscle system are the only things affected by the virus. Over the course of the rp more will be revealed about what the virus is and where it came from.

If you want a bio, mind providing a set of guidelines?

Sounds good. She is an infected right?

Si, but since there is no visual markings to indicate it and she doesn't look violent/killer then for those meeting her she'll just appear as a regular little girl.

This is open to all, but I would prefer that you tried your best when posting. Also, I notice you only have 1 post. If you haven't already you should read the stickies at the top of the forums. They are extremely helpful in telling how things work around here and they give good tips on rp'ing.

Would you accept something along the lines of a Japanese man, that is descended from a line of samurai, and believes that he should also be one, so he doesn't use any fire arms, only katanas. In other words, a wandering samurai?

Just saw the new "Die Hard" movie (was extremely good, I recommend it to all) and was wondering if I could play a John McClain-esque character... cop from Ambrose-Douglas gets stranded in the city when the infections starts, but he's armed and starts taking some stuff down... let me know.

Go ahead and bios would be nice. Everyone who has signed up should make one (if really don't want to then you don't have to). I only got one so far. :)

Thats okay

Thanks, heres my bio.

Age: 28
Height: 6'3
Weight: 147 lbs
Hair Style and colour: Long, down past his back, a deep auburn.
Eye colour: A very deep blue.
Bio: Aozoda was born in Kyoto, Japan, he was descended from a long line of great samurai. He was very enthousiastic about learning the history of his family, and soon became obsessed with samuri, eventually having hopes to be considered one. He managed to get his hands on several authentic katanas, but was unable to afford a suit of samurai armour, so contented himself with the garb of a Ronin, basic kimonos and sandals. He began to wander around the world, and was caught inside the city when the infected arised, and is now fighting for his survival.

LOL, from what I've read, it looks like hes just pushing himself farther away from the Gods.

Okay, here's my pathogen subverting char:

Name: Sgt Richard Jackson Dunn
Age: 36
Height: 6'1"
Weight: 180 lbs.
Eyes: Purple (after-effect of his unique reaction to the virus).
Hair: Normally shaves it very close to the scalp, as it grows out it becomes light brown.
Equipment: Light body armor, city camo fatigues, HK USP Combat Tactical Side-arm, standard Green Hawk Special Forces issue combat knife, small first aid kit, night vision goggles (broken), water canteen, and whatever rifle he can get and find ammo for.
Skills: Marksmanship, explosives engineering, foraging, tactical battle techniques.

Bio: Richard was born with a hypochondriac of a mother that constantly required her children to show her deference, something Richard tired of as he entered his teens. Excelling in wrestling and Judo, he decided to enroll in Green Hawk's military after high school. After basic, he placed well on the aptitude tests, qualifying to earn an accreditedengineering scholarship through the military academy while being trained for the special forces. He performed well in various assignments, receiving minor decorations during his actions, and favorable comments after certain missions which could not be given much public detail.

He was eventually promoted to sergeant, and was eventaully assigned an observation deploy into one of the colonial cities with the rest of his squad. Feeling more than a little uneasy, he went in with more than his normal caution. He was validated on the fourth day in, when his squad was ambushed by a mob of half deranged citizens. As they tried to retreat, many of the squad were simply cut down, and he was eventually the last left alive. He sealed himself off inside of a building, only to be attacked at close quarters by a hidden monster. It wounded him several times before he got free long enough to put a bullet through its head. After dressing the wounds, he fell into a deep sleep, waking a couple of days later.

The mirror showed him one change, that his irises had turned purple. Additionally, he found that he could see farther than before, though this was to prove only a portion of what had changed.

(Note, I'll be playing this from the time he wakes up, so anything more will be discovered after.)

Sounds good. Here is some info you will need and this is guessing your character is in Special Forces.

1.) Basic Weapons (Green Hawk doesn't use the 9mm, but I'll let it go;)): For rifles Green Hawk's Special Forces use one of the following:
a.) M4A1 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M4_Carbine) (Standard firearm)
b.) M16A3 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M16_rifle) (Standard firearm for Reconnaissance)
c.) HK416 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HK416) (Standard Riflemen's firearm)
d.) HK417 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HK417) (Standard Marksmen's firearm)
e.) M8 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XM8_rifle) (Standard firearm for Special Operations)
f.) HK USP Compact Tactical (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heckler_&_Koch_USP) (Standard sidearm, but you can keep the 9mm if you want)

There are others, but I don't want to make a full list... If you want to know your other options just ask. If you want to use a different gun then thats okay too.

Also, all soldiers regardless of anything must carry Night Vision Googles, combat knife, 1 quarter canteen of water, etc. (your basic gear) on missions. Green Hawk uses the Interceptor body armor (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interceptor_body_armor) and if you want your character can be part of S.O.R.T. (Special Operations/ Reconnaissance/ Terrorism). They are Green Hawk's version of the US Navy SEALs and they use a whole lot of tech like RQ-11 Ravens (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RQ-11_Raven) (UAV), Land Warrior (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Land_Warrior), etc, but they don't relay on technology to complete missions. They do Speical Operation, reconnaissince and Counter-Terriosm type missions. They use Navy SEAL tactics, other things of that sort, but I'm gonna be nice and give you some freedom. So if you want to do anything that is not on here just tell me and chances are I'll say okay. :D

We'll jsut assume that the body armor is the Interceptor body armor system for convenience's sake. I edited the post to now possess the HK USP side-arm, and he'll be starting with the M8, though the lack of available ammo may require that this gun be swapped for another. Also, he'll have the Night vision goggles, but won't use them at first. Two reasons:

a) They were broken when he was injured, so he must find the repair tools, and
b) His unique reaction allows him to see more clearly than before, thus mitigating his need for them.

I've kept the inital setup with what Green Hawk Spec Ops would use, but he'll do what every good soldier does in this situation: adapt, salvage, learn, survive, and evolve. Thus, when one gun runs out of ammo, he'll find more, or a more practical replacement. Something breaks? Fix it, or find another, balancing the pros and cons to choose the best probable outcome. Willhe change his equipment? Of course, since what he has might not get him through this. It might break, run out of ammo, or simply be insufficient. I won't change items just for the heck of it, though. Hence, I'll be keeping the HK USP for a while. I only used the 9mm as a starting point, it doens't mean that I'll ditch the USP first chance I get (if I ever do).

Hope this adds to the realism in my play style since my character won't be too real.

Here's the leader of my Special Forces unit in Green Hawk's city:

Name: Major Alexander Pierce
Age: 30
Height: 6'3"
Weight: 180 lbs.
Eyes: Brown
Hair: Shaved (but grown out it's brown)
Weapons/Equipment: Black spec-ops fatigues, interceptor body armor, M9 Beretta 9mm (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M9_pistol), combat knife, med-kit, frag grenades, standard-issue XM8 Battle Rifle (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XM8_rifle) w/ attached XM320 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XM320) grenade launcher.
Skills: Marksmanship, reconnaissance & tactical battle techniques, medical training, excellent in hand-to-hand combat & knife-fighting, and veteran experience in almost every aspect (this guy's seen much worse than zombies).
BIO: Alex Pierce was born in Maji City and raised under an impoverished family. All his life, he looked toward the rich folks and business people who lived in luxurious condominiums in beautiful, breath-taking skyscrapers downtown. After graduating high school, he joined the Maji Armed Forces at age 18 and showed extreme promise from day one as a hard-working, intelligent, and devoted soldier. Over the years, he has been sent to many nations as well as areas under sovereign control of Maji. He has been to hell and back handling the most dangerous assignments, fighting not only against other human beings, but also dragons hiding in the Maji countryside and bioengineered monsters that broke out in government (and private/corporate) research facilities. And now, his latest assignment, retrieving a sample of the virus that caused an outbreak mimicking the affects of zombies in a Green Hawk colonial city. The mission is simple: Get in, grab a blood sample (or better, capture a "live" one) from a young Infected for use in Project [wouldn't you like to know], and get out.



Most of the other soldiers under his command have the same equipment and weapons. I'll play them starting during the ride on two Darkwing helicopters carrying teams Alpha & Bravo into the city.

The choppers will be using active camouflage (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_camouflage) when they enter the city so they remain undetected by the 1st Armored Division.

BTW, Green Hawk, can tranquilizers work on the Infected or are these true-blue zombies that can only be put down (in any aspect) with a head shot?

BIO: Alex Pierce was born in Maji City and raised under an impoverished family. All his life, he looked toward the rich folks and business people who lived in luxurious condominiums in beautiful, breath-taking skyscrapers downtown. After graduating high school, he joined the Maji Armed Forces at age 18 and showed extreme promise from day one as a hard-working, intelligent, and devoted soldier. Over the years, he has been sent to many nations as well as areas under sovereign control of Maji. He has been to hell and back handling the most dangerous assignments, fighting not only against other human beings, but also dragons hiding in the Maji countryside and bioengineered monsters that broke out in government (and private/corporate) research facilities. And now, his latest assignment, retrieving a sample of the virus that caused an outbreak mimicking the affects of zombies in a Green Hawk colonial city. The mission is simple: Get in, grab a blood sample (or better, capture a "live" one) from a young Infected for use in Project [wouldn't you like to know], and get out.



Most of the other soldiers under his command have the same equipment and weapons. I'll play them starting during the ride on two Darkwing helicopters carrying teams Alpha & Bravo into the city.

The choppers will be using active camouflage (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_camouflage) when they enter the city so they remain undetected by the 1st Armored Division.

BTW, Green Hawk, can tranquilizers work on the Infected or are these true-blue zombies that can only be put down (in any aspect) with a head shot?

Use tasers, tranquilizers are the cu... Errr. Never mind... Here, I'll talk about the virus one more time. The virus is really a living bacteria and it is capable of making it's own food. How? By giving the host's body an adrenaline rush and making the heart beat faster which in turn causes the heart to make more blood. There is a reason why the infected don't eat what they kill. ;) One more thing, everything you said is okay

Before I forget... The IC thread will be up later today or tomorrow as for I need to type it up and I want to give other people time to sign up if they want to. ;)

IC thread is out! (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?p=12842074#post12842074)

This looks good, I'd like to enter as an infected.

Name: Samuel Hanks
Age: 37
Weight: 185lbs
Height: 6'1
Hair style & color: Shoulder length, brown and greasy hair.
Eye color: Green
Bio: A high school dropout and general underachiever in life, Samuel works as a janitor in one of the city's high rise offices. He was servicing the buildings air conditioning unit at the time of infection, hence being exposed to a large amount of the toxin. Armed with a mop and a new-found rage against his bosses upstairs, perhaps Hanks can make more of an impression as an infected than he did in normal life.

EDIT: Don't suppose you could give me the name of a big corporation in the city that I can work for please?

Sounds good and Afterburner does have branchs in several colonies. If you want you can rp killing some workers of Afterburner and the bosses.

Hmm, I'm interested. Psycotic killer kiddies? I'm definately in!

I'll get up a bio later. I'm thinking among the lines of a special agent who just manages to stumble upon the disaster. What is the harbour like in this city?

There are two small harbors, but they can fit pretty large boats if you want.

I was thinking trawlers. I'm just wondering if they'll be anything stopping me from leaving save from 'zombies' and intrigue. Perhaps the disease affected local squids? I'd like to be able to access the boat later in the rp to resupply.

Biography:

Name: Rolford Hargreaves
Age: 29
Weight: 11st 2pb
Height: 6ft 2''
Hair colour: Short black hair.
Eye colour: Brown
Bio: Just returning from an aborted rebel supply mission, Rolf has some spare time on his hands. Sailing a trawler ship loaded with munitions, he pulls into the port to meet with a contact who will refuel his ship, no questions asked. Only, the contact isn't there.

He is quite strong, able to carry multiple weapons, and is a good runner. His training is quite extensive due to his employment by the Weccanfelt Special Operations Office. Before this employment, he was a sniper paratrooper, but also worked with explosives. Therefore, those fields are his best. Also, he has a way with words.

Unfortunally, he is quite timid once things start going badly. He prefers to fight from a distance, and against proper humans. Therefore, a city full of bitety infected isn't his favourate battleground.

As for immunity, I'll make him a Nathan Hale if things go wrong. But if I read correctly, the virus has already done it's work.

You are always welcome to any rp I make Vetaka. Welcome aboard! :D

Excellent ill let the RP develop abit before I deploy.

I 've got a idea of a character, but its not on the list. Basically, I want to have this guy based initially in the Northern Colonies, but them moves into somewhere near the area (but not too close, don't want to make this guy sick himself) and works I suppose on a vaccine or cure for this bacteria. Might also send some Special Forces and other medical people to protect the guy, but the guy below will be the central character I will RP

As a requirement to attaining his Fellowship in the Supreme Governor's College of Physicians, he undertook his Doctorate in Medicine (a post-graduate research degree) at the O'Brien University, graduating in 1988. Influenced by his mentor and MD supervisor, Professor Edward Hoyt, he chose to specialise in infectious disease. His research, on MRSA and other 'super-bugs' is helping doctors combat the antibiotic-resistant bacteria.

He is an advocate for promoting the bio-technology field in the Northern Colonies. For his efforts in promoting said field as well as his work on the bacteria, he was awarded the Supreme Governor of the Order of the Northern Colonies, the highest possible level in that Order.

He currently holds the Edward Hoyt Chair of Infectious Diseases at the O'Brien University.

In his spare time, he enjoys life with his wife of 20 years and his two teenage boys. He also enjoys a game of chess.

Cazelia, unless yor character stumbled upon my guy while he was sleeping, he wouldn't have heard the fight. He's been asleep for nearly 36 hours after he first inhaled the pathogen. If you want to meet up, later, however, that is fine.

I have put a link to the thread on the first post. So if I'm not here to bump the IC thread just go to the first post here. Hope it helps.

Okay, feel free to post an intro for your character in the IC thread. :)

Done, waiting for someone to notice.

Ok, contrary to most of the people before me, I shall be one of the 'evil' soldiers whose task it is to 'contain' all citizens.

Obviously I shall be the squad leader of a small unit of troops, whom, as the containment began got trapped by the large numbers of people trying to escape the city so set up a defensive position in the local police station, if you wouldn’t mind

Bio (history, personality, what are you, etc):

1st Dec 2001 : Enlisted in the Marine core at Fort Baxter

1st may 2003: Served in Iraq

29th may 2003: received notable commendations from superior officers for bravery and ability under pressure

12th June 2004: Transferred to Undisclosed location where he received
Special training in biological containment protocols

24th August 2004: finished training 4th in class out of 20

3rd September 2004: Transferred to a Hazardous Environment Combat Unit

'All information of subject from this point on is *CLASIFIED*'

So basically im in a unit that specialises in biological containment and eradication of threats therein, a unit of 8 men are under my command, with an AAV-7A1 APC placed in a defensive position by the police station.

My character is armed with the following;

Sgt. Robert Page:

-Strider SMF combat knife
-MEU(SOC) pistol
-M16A2 assault rifle w/ M203 40 mm Rifle-Mounted grenade launcher
-FGM-172 SRAW missile launcher

All other troops will be designated equipment when the need arises, then from that point on it will be a permanent fixation unless weaponry is found elsewhere.

1st may 2003: Served in Iraq

Everything was good until I reached this part. This is not real life and as far as I know there is no Iraq in the NS world. If you would like you can sign up as a Green Hawk soldier or a soldier from your nation.

Eye color: green
Bio: Kyle was born on September 3, 1988 to Bronson and Alicia Stubblefield, both doctors in the city. Before the epidemic struck, he was a rocker dude, being the lead vocalist in a local band. He had already indicated that he didn't want to be a doctor like his parents - which was a source of friction in his otherwise great relationship with his family.

But when the epidemic struck, both his parents were affected, and then his older brother and his older sister. He is now the sole survivor in his family.

To anyone who might want to join: I am thinking of just rp'ing with what people have signed up because now it really does seem a lot of people joined. So, I'll end the sign up thing soon.

I'll be a survivor. Although, I've never RP'd before.

But, I like the fact that you based it off 28 days later, which is cool.

Age: 15
Weight: 150 LBS
Height:5'11"
Hair style & color: Brown, wavy, semi-long hair,
Eye color: Hazel (green-brown)
Biography (history, personality, what are you, etc):

A 15 year old boy, on vacation to Green Hawk, away from the political turmoil that had been produced from Myceena. Once settled, he heard reports of an infection. He scheduled for a flight off, but the colony had already been quarantined. He took a breath mask from a local hospital, and tried to get others to help him survive. He managed to get another, a girl around his age and a rogue Green Hawk soldier who couldn't just kill civilians. The girl is named Aina, and the ex-soldier is named Will.

Lukas: Very smart for his age, athletic and has a sort of satiric smartass attitude. He is very patient, and is a natural leader

Aina: She's also very smart, but on a more philosophical level, she sometimes just thinks about what will happen, and how to get out of this place. She is very serious, but has a good sense of humour when the time comes.

Will: Like the protective father of these two kids, he tries to keep them from harm. He was a former corporal for the Green Hawk, but his loyalty to them was overridden when the order came to kill everyone came. He silently slipped into the crowd, and met Lukas.

They are now hidden in a suite on the fifth floor of a building.


Is this acceptable?

And i shall enjoy containing those people will lead

OOC: Weccanfeld, I've entered in the same harbour as you. If you want, you can RP hearing the squad opening fire at the zombies.

Well, I've just been stopped by other soldiers, but once this get's cleared up, go on then. You could even be the back up I need.

Also, Green Hawk, do we have a name for this colony. I don't want to keep referring it as 'Green Hawk Colony'
