Author Topic: Another loving Zombie Apocalypse Game (Roger Patterson)  (Read 6287 times)

This is a forum game. There are rules to this forum game

Rules

1. nothing absolutely loving crazy
EX.
You are lunged at by a zombie, what do you do?
forget it. like, literally forget it
Don't do this
HOWEVER, your character can still be "Dead Rising" like, if you please. so, someone who still has comedic effects in the Zombie Apocalypse

2. don't pull random items out of your ass. whatever's in your inventory is what you have.

3. Respect eachothers choices in the comments. don't make fun of someone for their idea.

FIRST STAGE: CREATING A CHARACTER

Before we start, we need a protagonist. there are rules to this however.
1. Only humans. Despite Orion & Xexal being cool, they're unrealistic (neither is the zombie apocalypse, but we're keeping it The Walking Dead style)

2. Keep it appropriate. nobody wearing richard costumes/gimp costumes or anything of the sort.

3.you cannot spawn with high-tier weapons (guns, explosives, etc.) or items (armor, plating, ammunition)
you may choose from Bats, Fireaxes, Machetes, Clubs, Kukris, Knives, or literally nothing (bare fists)

4. In order to create a character, comment it's description, appearance, and stats. to know stats, check near the bottom of this post to know the basic stats/perks/traits.
If you can draw, post a picture of your character. even if you can't draw, try if you want :-)

LOCATIONS TO SPAWN
Here, you will be able to choose where you spawn. there are 5 locations to choose from:
Florida
Texas
New York
California
Georgia
The location doesn't really matter, it just changes certain locations & effects

Stats
Intelligence
Stealth
Strength
Attitude
Composure
Speed

These 6 are the main 6 stats you can get.
Please apply these numbers to them:

10
12
8
17
6
10
These numbers define the abilities you may have.
a higher number equals a higher score, which is better. haveing a higher number means you have a better chance of winning an encounter related to a stat.

In my country you made this thread at 0:30 AM.

Forums are slow by nature unless it's chock-full of forumers so be patient. Give it a day, not just 3 hours.

I may join once I'm back from school.

This is actually a good character design, but you're missing some things.
1. Use the numbers I have left for ya.
2. (this is honesly something I forgot like a dingus) 10 is the medium. a 9 in strength means you're "OK"
3.Pick a Trait & Perk

I don't get the numbers. What's wrong with my stats exactly?

well, for one, your character is... underpowered.
you gave yourself weak-ish stats.
instead of using
10
5
9
3
10
7
try using these numbers:
10
12
8
17
6
10

ALSO I somehow managed to miss your trait & perk entirely. sorry about that.
apply your stat modifiers aftr number placement.
(Remember, 10 is the middle score. 11 is 1 above average, 9 is one below average.)

your character is very interesting. I like it and hope to see it in the future if you're not chosen

Name: Big Baby (Jackson A. Smith)
Starting Equipment: Pack of diapers, full bottle of milk, backpack, 12 set of twinkies, little doll shaped as a baby.
Location: New York
Stats:
3
1
20
13
9
5

Trait: Friend
Background Info: Abused as a child, Jackson Smith barely went out of his apartment, but he trained and worked out over the years, he had nothing else to do. Eventually, when he becomes 23, hes free from his abusive parents, but all he had was some baby diapers, twinkies, and a baby bottle as he still thought he was a child. Whines and gives a whole bunch of 'tude to those who don't feed him. Although nice, he's a heavy brute able to smash some zombies.

The stats I left weak were left weak for a reason. I fixed it.

well, it's something.
but what are your stats assigned to? you just have numbers. do something like this:
Comp:12
Str:10
Snk:8
and so on.

also, forget it. try making your own stats. nobody seems to be following the rules. balance them, or they will not be chosen
