STORY We haven't gotten the story right just yet, but this is what we have so far.
The story begins when a meteor struck New England in September 1st, 2025. The meteor seemed to have some sort of, alien bacteria. Local intelligence "played" with the alien bacteria, and boy did it go wrong. The bacteria seemed to create a huge appetite with local citizens. For some reason the bodies started, decomposing. America was involved when citizens in Minnesota started catching the same appetite. The whole world had little bits of people with bacteria all over. The media and news reported all these theories and cure status. later on in January 25th, 2026 the cure was found, but not fully. It was a temporary cure, which was eating, live insects. The cure did not fully stop it, but it decreased appetite for a while. Later on, some people went crazy. There was cases of humans eating....their own kind. That's when people got worried and created containment areas. That didn't work however. The infected started breaching houses and eating neighbors and innocent people. Some even resulted in even eating pet animals. They would plead for them to eat people. They were begging for help, but you wouldn't let them in, now would you? You might be infected. No cure was ever found unfortunately. Now were in October 24th, 2027. No government runs, only the infected run and go for innocent people. Some have survived. The alien bacteria's status is unknown, but the whole world has this virus. There is no name for it, but let me call it "September's Disease."
More lands and secrets will be opened to the eyes of the remaining survivors with the will to carry on. Will you survive what new dangers await you in the apocalypse you used to call home?

APPLICATION AND RP RULES
1
Don't make your OC (original character) be an absolute God. Roleplayers hate it when they see an OC who's "God of the universe" and is totally "impenetrable." Making an absolute God won't help you make friends.
2
Don't use text talk. Y u no reply 2 me? No. Don't do that.
3
love: The Rules In A Nutshell. Don't roleplay-rape anyone (yeah, it exists, and happens), don't have love in comments, don't upload loveually provocative pictures unless both parties are dressed and/or no genitalia is exposed, don't put "I'm so horny" in your status, don't put words like "horny slut" or "submissive whore" in your display name, and if you're in a relationship, don't go off and do other people.
4
Layouts. Don't make the layouts of all layouts and express how yours is the bomb and everyone else's suck. That's not cool, nor is it going to help you get any storylines going.
5
Don't one-line (unless it's a preference with someone you're roleplaying with). Most people prefer at least a single paragraph, but some others allow one-lining. Just make sure you check the other person's preference (usually in the form of Roleplaying Rules in blogs) before trying to roleplay with others.
6
Don't steal anything, from anyone. This includes layout designs, storyline ideas, pictures, display names, biographies, roleplaying rules, etc. Don't be afraid to ask someone if you can copy something, 9 times out of 10 they'll say "Yes," and they'll expect credit so whatever you borrowed from someone, make sure you write "Credit to: [name]" under whatever you took.
7
Drama. Ah, drama. A Roleplayer's worst pet peeve. Roleplayers mainly hate all the real life drama other's bring in for attention. Don't be that person that sends a million bulletins/journals about your real life issues. If you have a problem in real life, talk with a friend in comments, messages, or on IM. Don't broadcast it to the world. However, you are allowed to broadcast in a journal that you'll limit your activity because of a death, school/work, problems in the family, etc. Just don't go overboard. Don't post a million statuses about how your parents are annoying. We all have annoying parents. Also, don't claim that you're going to retire, and then be all "oh wait, never mind." That pisses people off the most. If you're going to retire, think about it thoroughly and don't broadcast it prematurely just so you can watch everyone beg you to stay. Retiring is a personal decision.
8
God Mod, AKA Autoing. God-modding is basically being impenetrable and indestructible in every possible way. Don't do this, even if you are roleplaying a God of some sort. Remember: if your character gets killed in a particular storyline, you do not have to declare early retirement and kill off your character completely. Also, autoing is when you try to hit someone and they somehow "always hit without missing." This can also be called character controlling, controlling other characters, etc. It's insulting to the other roleplayer if you suddenly -throw a tomahawk at them with no chance of escaping- because it's pointless.
9
Be The Nice Guy/Girl. Accept constructive criticism, be nice, don't take things said in roleplay personally, make friends, chat up, etc. Be easy to get along with, and great roleplaying opportunities shall come your way.
10
The "Professional Roleplayer" does not exist. Don't call yourself "professional" because you "act like your character in real life" or you've been Roleplaying your character for so long that "you know everything about them." The only "professional" is the man/woman/group who created the universe you're roleplaying
