Pandemic. It's not a word people like to hear, but now it's a reality. Tragedy has stricken the entire US . . . the entire globe. A virus was released by some US army base in southern California, and now the entire world has been affected with this horrible disease.

Except for a few. For some reason, not everyone died from the disease. About one in 10,000 people survived, but now they're all alone. Their families are gone, their friends are gone, their enemies are gone. Everything they knew and loved and hated before is gone within a couple short days, leaving these survivors in a new and unimaginable world. While they have packaged food and weapons, they lack the modern conveniences of television, running water, and electicity. And they don't know how many others there are alive.

You are one of the survivors. Will you ban together with your fellow survivors or stay out of everyone's way? After all, it was human error which released this disease in the first place. Who says that something like this won't strike again? And the violence is now uncontrolled. Nothing stops people from breaking into a store or a house to pick out a gun and shoot one of the few remaining people.

Welcome to reality, my friends. You may have survived the plague, but now let's see if you survive Round Two.

These are the Frequently Asked Question. Have a question which isn't on here? PM me, please.

What is this about?
Basically this is a role play about a disease which wiped out most of the population at earth. At this current point in time, we're focusing on the effect of one fictional city in Pennsylvania.

How do I begin RPing?
Join the forum with your character's first and last name, then fill out an application in the application section. When the application is approved, you can begin RPing.

Why do I have to fill out with my first and last name?
This is so that you have one account per character. I do this because you can then have graphics for each character without worrying about the page being stretched or the graphic being too small.

How many characters may I have?
Start with one. When you reach twenty-five posts on that one character, you can make a second. Fifty posts on each character and you can make a third. Four is the maximum, and you must have 150 posts between the three characters in order to make the fourth.

How many people are left in the city?
I estimate that only 1 in 10,000 remain. This means that there will be people flocking in from other parts of Pennsylvania. Why? Here are some reason: searching for fellow survivors, searching for relatives, looking for an item, escaping a situation, looking for mischief. Those are only some of the possibilities. In fact, you can even have characters from other parts of the country/world who were in the city for business, field trips, study programs, etc.

Why is there no Phone/Messanger/E-mail features between Characters?
Technology is dead. Computers are still there, but there is no way to run them. Phone lines are down, and cell phone reception is very shaky. You can always send someone a message (PM, but in-character). smile.gif

What are the symptoms of the virus?
Coughing, sneezing, fever, headache. Usually the coughing comes first, followed by the sneezing and then the others before the victim dies. Sometimes it strikes, ebbs, and then kills. At any rate, the body generally takes on a black-ish hue shortly before death, which stays even after the victim dies. Survivors have no symptoms. For some reason, they had absolutely no symptoms, not even a slight cold. If they did, it was completely unrelated.

Are animals still around?
Dogs and cats were both stricken with the disease, so there won't be a whole lot of them. Wild animals--wolves, coyotes, deer, etc--will be in an abundance.
