The Immune: A Zombie Apocalypse RPG

THE YEAR IS 2018

It's five years after the pandemic began. It spread quickly. England went first, then it spread to the rest of Europe, took the Middle East and spread to Africa. Russia went next, and from there it spread all throughout Asia. A boat of escapees from Japan effectively infected Australia, and although at this point, North and South America had closed off their sky and shorelines, it wasn't long before the seal was broken.

The infected have taken over the world.

They roam the streets like they belong there, clustering in the few places that humans still frequent. Electricity for the masses is a near-lost memory and now the only places that hold electricity are "safe havens" like shelters or churches. There are no more new cars or cushy apartments… right now every day is like a fight for survival.

There are small pockets of resistance; miniscule armies of folks called Immune, a government group put together of people who have been bitten but show no effects whatsoever of the virus. After an Immune has been discovered, they're involuntarily recruited to work for the government regardless of what their prior lot in life was, killing infected and supplying the non-Immune with food and things to get through day to day life.

Only the strong (or the Immune) will survive. Are you one of them?
