The Colony wants you!
We're looking for a few players at the game I'm in to fill these storylines:
The Medic: Someone capable of mending bones and caring for the sick, preferably an EMT or an ER doctor/nurse. This medical person is not a Super!Doctor; it would be preferred if they were unfamiliar with things like childbirth or brain surgery. We would also prefer no military background.
The Martial Artist: Someone skilled in one or more forms of self-defense. Very calm and collected, despite the worst-case scenario coming to fruition.
The Mechanic: Knows everything there is to know about automobiles, large and small. Also skilled in welding and machine fabrication. Optional: A petty criminal who used to operate a hack shop.
The Farmer: Either grew up on a farm as a child, or knows quite a bit about farming through some other means. We're talking animal husbandry or seasonal planting. Optional: May be a hippie, or someone who 'lives off the land' in a non-traditional farmer way.
John Searle (inneedofrepair)'s NYC friend: She lived in NYC before H1N1 and remained there with her parents' corpses, unable to leave them for many months. Otherwise she is very independent, but focused on looting expensive dresses and jewels just as much as the necessities. See history for more information. Possible integration into the storyline: joined a trader's caravan or was kidnapped by a breeder camp.
Holly Sharpe (ilicin)'s Older Brother: Holly had three older brothers, but only one survived. He wouldn't be comfortable with his brother crossdressing (at least at first), and hasn't seen him, or their late sister Camilla, in years. See history for more information.
Mason Reynolds: In the same evacuation camp as Analise (crazyonyou), he drove them out when everyone else got sick. Together, they formed a group with a handful of other survivors until Ana left to find Drew (tuned_in). She promised to return if she couldn't find him. In love with her, he waits to see her again. See scene and character history for more information.
Of course, original characters not based on prompts are also in demand. Hope to see you there!
