First Night: Well that's what everyone calls it, the day the world went to hell. No one knows for sure how it all started except that the dead stopped being dead. It took two weeks for human civilization to fall. Families torn apart, or together in a walking mass of dead gray flesh. They tried nuking the cities but that only gave you radioactive zombies climing out and calling for your flesh.
Let's go fourteen years after first night. Nine towns are currently settled near each other in California. People are slowly adapting to the zombies, also called zoms. They have made cadaverine, stores in jars and can be sprinkled on your clothes to hide you from zombies scent of smell. Basically it makes you smell like the living dead. Using peppermint gel on the upper lip will block the scent for you. Now these nine towns don't want to fight or expand, they simply want to live in peace. The world is good but it also has it's bad people. Z Cards that a local artist sometimes makes has legends on famous zombies or heros of first night. Kids around town collect and trade these cards. Okay so, here's a few people/types we have.
Bounty hunters: They can be both bad a good and mostly work alone but they know every other bounty hunter. They stick near the nine towns and live in a town or just keep travling. Outside if the town fence is known as Rot & Ruin, no rules out here.
Game Land: A horrible place that a few bad people created and own. They go around and kidnap children and take them to this place where they are forced to fight in pits with zombies with or without weapons depending on what mood they are in. People come here and place bets and buy weapons or bring in kids.
Watch tower: Well it's a watch tower. A job you can take to look out far and wide for any dangers or anything new. You also have to get a job once you turn thirteen.
Fence Walker: Another job you can get in town. You have to walk along the fence on the inside and kill any zoms that are right on the fence.
Zoms tend to walk in small groups or alone or just stand until something catches their attention. Now, there will be more once your charry(s) go exploring if that's the path they take. You can have weapons but mostly don't if you live in town. Have up to three characters and no god modding, you might die in the rot & ruin or you might not. Play as you think you would during a zombie apocalypse. -
Also,
Way-station monks: They don't live in towns but outside of them maybe a day or so away on foot. They offer help to the wounded or house bounty hunters that they trust sometimes. They bealived the zoms are meant to be on earth an take care of them instead of hurting them. They call them the Children of Lazires. -
