Interest Check: High School of the Dead

[KunoichiRogue5]

As stated. I would PREFER one person per player for now. However I will not force someone to not play if they can't do multiple characters. But yes, if the group gets huge enough they may split up and head in another direction.

But to warn you all before we begin, this is what my friends call a "nuke 'em 'til they glow" game. I will be actively trying to get you killed in different ways. What seems like a perfectly safe gated community may be infested with zombies. >.> Or a seemingly dangerous haunted house could be just a spooky place. I wont just say, "you're grabbed and killed" You'll always have the chance to fight or flee. But there may be a scenario that you walk into that will get you killed if you aren't careful. So anyone that wants out, say so.

*has been reading the Zombie Survival Guide by Max Brooks*

Do you have room for one more girl?  I have an idea that you might find interesting...

[Crovonovin]

As far as I can tell, this game is open to anyone!   And having lots of women about just makes this game closer to the source material.   ;D

[pendarious]

i havent had an opportunity to read the source material yet.......ive been trying but school just keeps getting in the way.

And this is open to any and everyone! Please feel free to post up characters at any time! And you don't HAVE to be a student, you all know that right? I'm sorry, I should have specified. I would prefer there be a reason for you being at the school since I'd like everyone to start there.

[Bloody Rose]

is my char accepted?

[KunoichiRogue5]

GAH! How the hell did I miss that!? Sorry! Yeah! Looks great!*drools slightly* He looks delicious.

[Bloody Rose]

You ignored me.... *Cries*

[Bloody Rose]

That link is for Manga fox... when you have the rp going let me know :)

[KunoichiRogue5]

Well.. Yeah. For people who want to read the manga that helped inspire this.

[KunoichiRogue5]

For those that haven't noticed I put the character section up. You'll find the link in my first post.

[KunoichiRogue5]

We are looking for more people that may or may not want to join this game. If you're interested pm me or post here, and then put a character sheet up for approval. The game is on hold, for now, at least until we can get more players. And I promise, we're not going to close the game to newcomers. We will be coming across survivors as we go, and such so you never know what you'll encounter.

Oh I HAVE read High School of the Dead. Up through chapter 24 on Onemanga. But when I went last night to see if the new chapter was up it was suspended because they had a request to take it down. Which can only mean that someone is actually translating it!!! Woot!

It's gone from MangaFox.

[KunoichiRogue5]

Yes, sadly it is. But thank you for the link. If you're interested you're free to join us. This is an 'open casting call'

[Haibane]

Reading the manga now. It's excellent, bloody brilliant artwork. Not sure if I'll play, zombies are not usually my thing but the manga treats it all in a fairly comedic way and if the RP does the same I may be interested. Dark, serious, scary zombie nastiness isn't my thing at all though, so how to you plan to pitch it?

EDIT: Read through much of the manga last night and I love it to bits. Unfortunately right now I just can't take on any more games :( That being said this is the kind of setting where a new char can pop up at any time and in fact the part of the story that interests me most is when the characters leave the school and go outside, arming themselves with guns and getting dragged into all the politics and infighting of the survivors. If you get to that stage where the character interactions really become relevant I'd be interested.

Am I terrible person for wanting to join the game just to be caught? Especially if the zombies were in a mood for more then eating...

[KunoichiRogue5]

We all have our dark sides, but no that doesn't make you a bad person. But I cannot promise you'll survive being caught. Because once those needs are satisfied, then another one emerges...

[schnookums]

Nothing wrong with that per se...maybe a temporary character that serves as the impetus to bring in another character...
