1.) Follow all IwakuRoleplay site rules.
2.) Do not control, seriously injure, or kill other players' characters without their express permission.

4.) Be realistic in combat situations. Do not godmode, the odds are, your character led a normal, conflict-free life before the apocalypse, they can not just magically be expert fighters. If you have a certain skill, please explain how and why in your background and, again, BE REALISTIC.
5.) This RP is rated Mature only because of the violence, death, and dark themes of an apocalyptic plot. Romance between adult characters (WITH ADULT PLAYERS) is acceptable, but this is NOT a smut RP, keep it in your pants or take it to PM. No one wants to read five paragraphs of romance every post in a zombie roleplay. There is an exception for actual character relationship development, but it's not to be excessive.

[fieldbox="Dexter Bastian Fletcher, orange, dashed, 10"]


Name: Dexter Bastian Fletcher

Nicknames/Aliases: Dex, or Bass (like the fish, not the instrument)

Age: 24 [7/7/02]

H&W: 6'0" & 185# (pre-apocalypse)

Gender: Male

Appearance: Brown hair, dark brown (almost black) eyes. Tall and well built, muscular, and in very good shape. Usually keeps medium-length hair. Not very dressy, usually wears boots, jeans, and sleeveless shirts, sometimes with a flannel over it.

Personality: Around most people, Dex is a serious and no-nonsense type of person. He HATES smalltalk, and will go to great lengths to avoid pointless conversations, preferring to stick to himself. The one exception is his younger sister, who he dotes on, and is incredibly protective of. While interacting with strangers, he can seem a little bit on the abraisive side, but he is just generally a good person.

History: Dex comes from a well off family, thanks to his father's work. He never really wanted for anything growing up, and as a result ended up slightly spoiled. He graduated high school at the top of his class and earned a scholarship to a very prestigious college, but, after an argument (about his chosen major) with his father that blew out of proportion, he left home, rejecting his father's dream of having him as a scientific protoge, and joined the Army.

Dexter spent most of his five-year term overseas at a base in Japan, having limited contact with his family or friends from home. He intended to sign up for another term after his contract expired, but, upon being given the news that his mother was diagnosed with terminal lung cancer, decided to return home instead. He bought his mother a service dog, trained to carry oxygen tanks and provide comfort, and she named the dog Hero.

The world went to shit 6 months after their mother succumbed to her cancer, leaving the family broken and divided. Their father shut himself away, pretty much leaving Dexter to take care of his sister. During the initial breakdown of the planet, they were relatively safe in their home for a few months, which, thanks to their father's paranoid nature, had been prepared for a natural disaster. But the close quarters, and their father's mental descent, led to an unstable foundation that was bound to crumble. And it did, one day when after a fight with their father, his younger sister Riley stormed off. Dexter went looking for her, but all he found were signs of a struggle and a whole lot of blood. After a long, fruitless search with no more signs of Riley, he returned home. The guilt drove his father to commit suicide a few days later, leaving a note that said he'd done it - he'd made an immunization for the Z. gondii parasite and instructed Dexter to get Hero - now the carrier of the only known hope of the human race - to Washington DC. He left that night, with only Hero, the clothes on his back, and whatever supplies he could carry.

Many times she has tried changing her looks by either getting a different hair cut, choosing different clothes or make-up. The only thing she never changed was her natural red hair. At the moment her hair reaches down to her mid back but, she usually braids it or puts it in a bun. Even tho she's not particularly happy with her looks people often tell her that her eyes are her most noticeable feature. The light blue center with dark blue surrounding the edges, they are the window of her soul, showing emotions she likes to keep hidden.

Her skill is a porcelain color and hold little to no blemishes thanks to taking care of her skin. Elizabeth has light freckles going across her nose and cheeks that aren't noticeable unless close to her face. Her face is slightly round and her nose is button like while her lips are plump and pink. She's slightly short for her age, her being 5', and is relatively fit only weighting about 110 lbs. Even with her body being fit her figure is slightly curvy but, not by much. Most times her outfits reflect her mood, which is mostly happy so, often times you'll find her in skinny jeans and a T-shirt. Now tho, she prefers legging as there easier to move in.

During Lizzie's first sword fighting match when she was 5 her father collapsed. Panic went through her when she watched her father fall. At the hospital the doctors informed them her father had testicular cancer, meaning he had day's left. Elizabeth and her mother cried in each others arms for hours before finally going to see her father. The last thing he even told them was, 'Keep each other close and never forget the love I had for both of you'. 5 day's later they were informed he had passed away.

Years went on and Lizzie and her mother remembered her fathers words but, things were different now. Her mother rarely said she loved her and the house seemed more empty with out her father. Even her mother seemed empty. That didn't stop her from trying to get thing back to they way they were. At school Elizabeth had many friends, she was even on the gymnastics team. yes, her school life was good and people thought her home life was just as good but, it wasn't.

When the outbreak happened Lizzie and her mother hid in there house, only leaving to scavenge other houses. Every one else had left so this was okay but, even with the world having gong to shit her and her mother still weren't close. Until the day her mother caught the disease they barely talked. It was that day that her mother put a gun in her had and said to kill her. Elizabeth was crying but, she did as her mother told her. The last thing her mother said was 'I love you'. After that she buried her mother and left never to turn back. Shortly after she left she came in contact with an injured fox cub.

[Dakota K5]

Lemme fetch Otto.

 

[Dakota K5]

Appearance (Picture)

Name: Otto Williams
Nicknames/Aliases: None
Age: 36
Gender: Male
Appearances: Brown graying hair at medium length, a full beard that has gone mostly gray and hazel green eyes.
Stands at 6 foot even, weighs about 168 pounds.

Personality: Otto is a quiet man who keeps to himself mostly, he is kind to others but puts people off at first due to his demeanor to others. He is rough and crass, direct and to the point as he does not care for dancing around something and would rather get to the point so if someone has a problem he would rather someone share it openly. Otto also is not someone to turn away from violence, this is not to say he looks for conflict but he is willing to commit violence if there is no alternative.

History: Otto was a trapper before things went to all hell, as odd as it seems people still wanted to ware fancy animal skins even in the 2020s. It didn't pay a whole lot but it was enough for Otto to live comfortably by himself, he also supplemented this life with hunting and trapping for food but this life was not conducive to being very social thought it was better than before when he was just working a normal 9 to 5. Before all that though Otto had spent several years in the US army, enlisted at eighteen and by twenty was already applying for the US army special forces also known as the green berets and by his twenty first birthday had made the cut. A lot of the things he had a hand in was still classified all the way up to the outbreak and even now he considers speaking of any of it to be treason whether the US government exists still in any for or not. When he was discharged is when his life as a trapper hermit began, no one would really understand what he saw, what he did or what happened to him so he isolated himself. It was odd for Otto when outbreak happened, due to his isolation he knew nothing about it at first and it was only when he made his way into the town he normally sold his furs and bought needed supplies that he figured something was wrong. His first clue was that the whole town was...dead, not literally but their were not people, no cars nothing as if all the people had up and vanished besides a few dogs and stray animals. He found many newspapers that had detailed the events leading up to the outbreak and the aftermath, for most people this would of broken them or at least been a life changing event but Otto isn't most people. He took the supplies he needed and retreated back into the forest and now moves with the animals.

[VengefulPeanut]

Main Character:​

Name: Aoibheann 'Evie' Summers | Nickname/Aliases: 'Robin' | Age: 21 | Gender: Female

Hair: Ginger | Eyes: Pale Blue | Height: 5'4 | Weight: 121lbs (55KG) | Birthdate: 16/04/2005​

Personality:

Bubbly, opinionated, peculiar. 3 unrelated words all of which have been used to describe Evie. Always one to try and look on the bright side of life, Evie's outgoing and adventurous nature has led to her being a well-rounded and confident girl. She tries to see the best in everyone and, in herself, be the best for everyone. She's nothing short of a perfectionist in that regard. If she's not at her best, she's at her worst. This, alongside being one to hold grudges, is probably her greatest flaw and in many cases her downfall.

History:

The daughter of a British military officer and an Irish immigrant, Evie was born and raised in northern England. Despite that fact, she still retains something of an Irish 'twang' from her mother. Evie always excelled throughout her childhood and adolescence: good grades, good social skills and very talented in her chosen hobbies. She was always a point of pride for her parents, something she quickly got used to. Once perfection was a common thing, it became a required thing for Evie. Anger would follow if not. Always finding an interest in archery, and being heavily invested in politics, she gained the nickname 'Robin' amongst her friends after 'Robin Hood'.

At the age of 18, she enrolled at Sheffield Hallam university to study History and Archeology where she quickly joined an abundance of societies and sports teams. Over her 3 years at university, she dropped out of most of them but one she did not relinquish was her position on the archery team. Being heralded as the 'saving grace' of the team, Evie quickly found popularity among her peers and the faculty, leading the team to victory in almost every competition they had. During her final year, Evie and the archery team travelled to the USA to compete with other university teams there. Alas, this is where her life took a turn for the worse. When the main outbreak happened, the team was blindsided. After the first reports of "zombification" came in, Evie and the team attempted to get back to the UK, only to be foiled in their attempt by rioting, zombies and quarantines. Multiple failed attempts later and Evie found herself in a refugee camp, praying every night into her pendant that she'd hear helicopters overhead and her father would magically appear with some sort of British Army rescue operation. Sadly, that day never came. After some time, when the government broke down and everything went to hell, the camp fell victim to an attack from armed raiders. In the fighting, several of her team mates were caught in the crossfire, others kidnapped for purposes Evie didn't dare to consider. Fleeing with a couple of others, she ran in a direction and didn't stop. Over time, she lost the others too. Rumours told of a safe haven, however. A place called 'Impact Point'. A place abundant with survivors. Even if it was just idle gossip. She had to try find it. She had to.

Somewhere along the way, however, in the city of Shreveport, Evie encountered a duo of men out on the interstate. A couple of standoffs, fights and running for dear lives later and she had found herself in the little group she now resides in, trying to make it day by day.

Side Character (Dead):

Name: Jack Whitley | Age: 34 | Gender: Male | Hair: Brown | Eyes: Dark Blue | Birthdate: 7/19/1991

Personality:
Firm, responsible, calm and calculating. Jack is the embodiment of what you would expect from a man like him. He has a strong sense of what is right and what is wrong - or at least by his definitions, anyway. Still, cross him or rub him the wrong way and you'll find a man that has a lot of anger and venom to bare.

History:
Having been on standby in Georgia when it happened, Jack was among one of the first special operations units to mobilize when the outbreak started. Initially, his platoon was tasked with HVT extractions, survivor recovery operations and supplementing National Guard units that were overwhelmed. For the first few weeks of the world going to hell, Jack never saw sleep. Yet, he also saw numerous successes. Unfortunately, success stories were few and far between and sooner or later, the luck of 1st Battalion ran out - Jack's battalion. Jack doesn't talk much about what went down in Atlanta, the most he'd ever tell anyone was that it was a joint operation with SFOD operators. That's when he was declared MIA. That's when he began to wander alone. It stayed that way for some time until a chance encounter gave him new purpose. Meeting Ryan Taylor re-instilled him with a hope that there was something more to this new world, perhaps even a chance at redemption for what he did in the last.

Side Character 2:

Name: Ryan Taylor | Age: 36 | Gender: Male | Hair: Blonde | Eyes: Blue | Birthdate: 10/01/1990

Personality:
Confident, charismatic and a little bit larger than life, Ryan Taylor emboldens himself with the spirit of a leader. He leads his group through understanding and comfort, being able to make even the most nervous of members feel safe. He is generally a caring person, taking personal responsibility for all under his care to the point of his own detriment. That said, Ryan's shortcomings are very noticeable in his placidity - his willingness to see the best in all situations. It is this placidity that has caused him to misjudge many.

History:

Ryan was originally a US marine, in his late teens. He served in multiple conflicts in the Middle East, seeing deployment in both Iraq and Afghanistan. However, come the age of 23 he had tired of a military career and settled himself back in suburban America. It was only when he realized he could make money selling his accounts of what he saw and experienced that he really started to make progress in his life. Drawing inspiration from the conflicts he had witnessed with his own eyes, his personal accounts evolved into novels and before he knew it he was soon an accomplished and renowned author. However, when the outbreak happened, not many remained who took a thrill in reading his material.

He found refuge with a small group of survivors led by military forces in his home-city of Pittsburgh and by a lucky chance was evacuated South to a military-controlled refugee camp. After a disagreement with the leadership of the camp, Ryan struck out on his own, several others following him. The group have been on the road ever since.

His time since meeting Dex's group had been difficult. He lost his nephew, Wes, and his best friend, Jack. Despite his grief, he given no rest when the settlement they inhabited was attacked - an encounter that left him with a shattered kneecap, unable to walk without aid. Still, while his life was saved by the people of the Nashville settlement, his soul was still very much in a critical state.

[Himilo]

Name:
Aveline Monroe

Age:
28

Gender:
Female

"Now, not later!"​

​

Nicknames/Aliases: Tulip

Appearances:
- Slim build
- 130 lbs
- 5'6
- Curly hair, brown skin, brown eyes
- Usually keeps a school bag to carry her things
- Usually wears a black t-shirt, navy blue cardigan (likes to keep warm), blues jeans (though prefers a long skirt to relax in) and durable sneakers (nothing fancy I guess...)
- Will find better clothes overtime

Personality:
Before the crisis, Aveline was a different person. She spoke with others on a daily basis, greeted many with a smile and would even talk with strangers on trains. Her daughter was the light of her life, made her open up to others. "People are good." She believed it and held that motto close to her heart. Aveline would help anyone any way that she could.

Unfortunately, that motto disappeared once the diseased crisis hit. Aveline lost everything and everyone around her and every moment when she met the living, her trust was betrayed. Every time she tried to help the living, they repaid her with greed or they ended up dying anyways. Every moment she talked with the living, it was used against her. Her trust in others was gone, her want to help others faded, and her desire to speak with other was thrown away.

Aveline is now reserved, doesn't trust anyone, can be thought as down right rude whether she intends to be or not, and she does not help anyone without pay. By now she is unsure if "People are good." Believing "It's either dealt with now or it's hurts you later."

History:
[Pre-Crisis]
With French being her first language, Aveline could've easily taken the job of a teacher instead she chose Botany and only wanted to make the environment cleaner and loving the development of the plant life. She'd made enough money over time to live happily but wanted something more and soon she got what she wanted. She gave birth to a child name Corey and everything felt perfect, Aveline could only see the good in people.

Once the infected took over, she lost everything she had built, everyone she loved, and all of her trust was betrayed. But she still held hope that her daughter was still alive. Aveline had left Corey in the safety of the babysitter and when she arrived home the babysitter had been infected. Aveline looked around her home after the babysitter had been dealt with and Corey was no where to be seen.

Aveline had searched for a year looking for her daughter and not a sigh, a body, nor a walking corpse had turned up. She now only held memories, Corey's small stuffed animal, and a photo of Corey and her together.

- Bilingual (French, English)
- Over time she learned to sneak past both the infected and the living

H&W: 5'11" & 145#

Gender: Male

Appearance: Light brown hair, usually kept at medium length. Normal height and weight but a little lanky. Grey-blue eyes.

Personality: Wes is an all around good person. Though he's usually quiet and rather reclusive, he is anything but a bystander, and will go out of his way to help even a perfect stranger. Compassionate and caring, Wesley treats all forms of life as equally important, and is loathe to kill anything even for his own survival.

History: With a pretty normal only-childhood, Wes didn't have too much to complain about. His mother and father were a police officer and a nurse, respectively, and though they were never rich, they always had a roof over their heads and three meals a day on the table. He was always encouraged to follow in whatever career he desired, so after graduating high school, applied for FA and got admitted into Penn State's veterinary program. Wes passed the undergraduate degree with flying colors, but was only a year into his second four-year stretch of vet school when the parasite took over. Barely managing to make it off campus alive, his first priority was to get home to his parents. But what he found in Pittsburgh was only chaos and death and destruction, with his parents nowhere to be found. Wesley stayed in his home for as long as he could, surviving off the food they'd left behind and hoping they would come back when everything settled. But things never settled, and his parents never returned. His uncle Ryan, however, did, convincing him that staying here would only mean death eventually, and that moving, searching for somewhere safe, was the only way that they would survive. So Wesley left with him, meeting up with his best friend from high school, Conner, along the way. Together they managed to form a group capable of survival in the aftermath of the apocalypse.

|Age: 18 | Gender: Female | Hair: Red | Eyes: Hazel | Height: 5'6 | Weight: 150 |

Personality:
Outgoing, social, smart, well rounded and popular were all ways people would describe Riley. Well that was before her mother lost the battle against cancer, the world decided to fall to complete shit, and her father had lost his mind. Now the teen could be described as bitter, resentful, untrusting and even hateful.

History:
Riley comes from a well off family, thanks to her father's work. She never really needed anything growing up, but was always given whatever she wanted. Most would call Riley spoiled, but she wasn't bratty about it. She appreciated everything, she just knew she was better off then most families. Riley was a straight A student, who took advance Science courses, and was a rising Gymnast. To most she had it all, the looks, tons of friends, a caring family, money, brains, and even a bright future.

But it seemed the world had other plans for her. Everything she once knew was ripped away. Friends, money and a bright future meant nothing when the world is ending. The only thing that became important was her family and Riley wasn't even lucky to keep that. Her mother was taken by cancer, which caused her father throw himself even more into his work. His sole focus becoming to create an immunity. Which in the end caused Riley to end up losing her father to his own mental instability.

During all this Riley and her family were relatively safe in their home for a few months, which, thanks to their father's paranoid nature, had been prepared for a natural disaster. Unfortunately the close quarters, and their father's mental descent, led to an unstable foundation which became to much. She felt the need to escape, to escape the feeling of the walls closing in on her, to flee from the rambling of her crazed father. Snapping Riley stormed out of the house. In her agitated state Riley didn't take notice to just how far she had ran.

She had ended up running through the wooded area that surrounded her home. Exhausted, Riley was about to head back towards her home when she heard a female screaming. Infected?! Riley's brother Dexter had warned her that leaving the house was dangerous because the creatures could be lurking anywhere. Riley had been running back towards her house when she collided with a woman. The woman was injured and being followed by a group of Infected. She had begged Riley to help her but knowing it was to dangerous Riley decided to leave her.

Problem was the woman had started to chase Riley demanding for her to help her. Riley could hear the woman and the infected closing in on her. If she continued like this she would only lead them straight back to her house. So having run the woods so many times when she was younger. Riley easily changed route and headed for the road that was on the edge of the woods. Having a lead on the woman Riley was quick to climb in the front of an abandoned cop car and hide. Unfortunately the woman didn't get the chance to hide before the Infected caught up to her. Riley hid as she the woman screams and the infected's groans filled the air.

The woman's screams had attracted some more infected and now Riley was surrounded. She hid hopping that they would pass her and that she could make a run for it back home. But before she had the chance to the sound of a gun being fired rang out before the door of the car was swung open. "Come on! We need to run!" A man yelled to Riley as he pulled her out of the car.

[Skrimps]

Name: Sykes Peabody
Age: 48
Gender: male
Appearance: gas mask, winter jacket, belt filled with survival tools, cloak, travel backpack, 2nd and 3rd degree burns on his arms and right side of his face

Personality: over his years in the apocalypse tought him what pain really is. He's very serious, and often rude, and mean. And if your unfortunate enough to piss him off, you better hope you'll die first before he gets to you. But what hides inside the monster, is a kind-hearted person who just wants a group, so that he won't die as nothing or just another corpse.

History: it was only him, and his little sister living in the streets their whole life. they learned how to fight, how to work, how to survive. Back then Sykes was in a better place in his mind, he wasn't the way he is now. He was part of a small gang, that he called family. At the time it was the only thing he had. They did what a real family should, they protected each other, laughed together, they did everything together. And Sykes loved that, he loved being with people who know him and he knows them. And at the time he was just a normal person cracking jokes, and being human. Although skykes cared about his gang, but the real thing that kept him going was his little sister. She always came first in his mind, nothing was above her, she was all that mattered. Then at the age of 24, that's the year that changed him physically. He was almost burned alive during a fire causing him to have burns all over his body and parts if his face. He thought his gang looked at him different from that point on, almost like an animal, even his sister. Then came the outbreak, and this is the event that really changed who Sykes was, his whole gang including his sister became infected. He had no choice he had to kill them, he couldn't take their growls and moans, and when that moment when he killed them all, he never was the same. And now all he wants is a new group, a new family, but he's afraid he will have to kill them to someday.

Skills: He learned many fighting styles when living on the streets, and more in the apocalypse. He taught himself how to treat wounds since no one els could help him. to keep him and his gang out of trouble he learned how to easily escape situations, the infected was no different. He is good with melee weapons, from brawling other gangs, and since the apocalypse he had to hunt for food, without attracting to much noise, so he used a bow and got pretty crafty with it.

Likes: whiskey, relaxing music, whatching the sunset while having a drink, and family
Hates: anyone who ever brought up his sister, or gang on purpose, annoying noises, and people who mock him

Hi skrimps, just letting you know that we're reviewing your application and CS and waiting on word from the last GM. :) I just found some minor descrepancies in your CS that I'd like to go over and clarify, if that's okay?

1) We're not too far into the apocalypse. I think off the top of my head it's abut a year and a half. I notice you noted your character getting older throughout the apocalypse so if you could review the timeline and make sure you're certain that'd be great.

2) The sister back story strikes me as a bit odd at the moment and I was wondering if you could flesh it out a little more.

3) Your character seems a little more antagonistic than I'd say is wise for the group. Lots of antagonism is going on at the minute and I'm unsure if your character would realistically fit with the group (not to say we can't work out alternatives).

If you'd care to skim read the recent posts and the time line once more I'm sure we can clarify anything that's uncertain right now. Thanks for the CS!

@Skrimps

Thanks for your interest in Mission: Z! While we are still accepting characters, and likely will continue to, I do have quite a few concerns regarding Sykes.

Your character concept is interesting, but I'm afraid it doesn't really fit into the world that we've built around this plot. If you'll take a look at the other character sheet submissions, you'll notice that they all seem to have things in common, whereas yours is a stark contrast. Sykes feels like a character that would fit into a Fallout style video game, not this RP.

That being said, my recommendation is to start from scratch with an entirely new character. They need to be able to fit in with the current group, and need to be a team player capable of making emotional connections with the existing characters, and not just being some super edgy, gunslinging apocalypse survivor.

If you were 100% stuck on using this character, the following changes must be made:

1.) You need a face claim. As stated in the blank CS, no artwork is accepted in place of a real picture.

2.) Your background needs a lot of tweaking. We're only a bit over a year into the apocalypse, and before that the world was a very normal place - your "fighting pit" backstory seems unrealistic at best. Perhaps he was involved in a gang instead? Regardless, any skills he has must be explained on how he got them and has maintained them over the years.

3.) You need a reason that staying with the group would benefit your character. As my other GM mentioned, Sykes seems overly antagonistic, and not exactly the team player type. We play realistically in this RP
No one gets plot armor. So if he showed up with that attitude, there's a huge chance he'd just get gunned down on sight.

4.) Your character seems to have no realistic weaknesses, so those would have to be clarified.

If you have any questions or anything please feel free to PM me!

However during a survival trip in the winter she noticed one of the campers had gone missing. When she went to look for him, it would not take long for her to hear screams coming from the camp. So when she came back she was scared to see the camper attacking the other campers.

She believes that there is good in everyone, even the dead. She is very cheerful and could bright up a room with a single smirk. She try's to make bad situations better usually by jokes. She wants to impress her guardian Sykes, by showing him how strong she is, without killing but instead making friends, but sometimes she usually goes a different way.

She was the happiest child ever rarely ever crying or pouting. The one thing that she ever complained about was being an only child. She wanted someone to love her and someone to love back but she never got it.

Later at the age of 6 she took up ballet dancing, and boy did she have a talent for it. She loved dancing, it was her way of saying how she felt personally about things. In school she knew everyone and they knew her, Who ever hated her she though as a friend trying to toughen her up. She found an interest in plants and flowers, so she started to collect flowers, and she had a large collection. Then she had a interest in track, she would fly by the other people with out even stopping fur a breath.

Then the outbreak hit, and for the first time she felt scared. On the second week her parents turned, she knew they were alive, and trapped in there. But they would only moan and groan at her trying to eat her. Then she was saved by Sykes, and from that day she stuck with him till the end. Always trying to make him laugh, she failed but she didn't care. She thought of Sykes as a guardian angel. Except rude, sarcastic, and drinks, but she knew he cared about her and that's all that matters.
