dustytomes Posted February 7, 2008 Report Share Posted February 7, 2008 For several months you have been having dreams a bout zombies. At first you thought they where just recurring nightmares. But then you saw a news report about violent assault at the midtown mall. One Ronald Simms assaulted 6 people seriously injuring 2. In the grainy security video of the assault you see your nightmare almost to the T. The only difference is in your dream Ronald was one of the walking dead but in the video Ronald was just a deranged psycho. This pattern of your zombie nightmares coming true continued until at last you come to the realization that your dreams aren't just dreams they are visions. Your visions are getting worse. Recently you have predicted a prison and a hospital riot. And most resent visions are of a city wide riot. Slowly you realize you are receiving vision of a... Zombie Apocalypse!

Others see you as just another nut job. Your wife has threatened to "divorce your crazy ass if you don't knock this zombie crap off!" Your most recent vision is of a citywide zombie riot.

dustytomes Posted February 8, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2008 Re: Zombie Apocalypse! Character: The Mechanic An ex-army hummvee mechanic you mustered out without any job prospects. You took a job as assistant manager at your Father-in-laws junkyard. You also fix cars in your spare time. Times are hard in 2022 and you had to move in to the Rustic Acres trailer park(manufactured home park). You love your wife and 2 kids even if things have been rocky lately.

Your greatest hope it to one day get partial custody of your kid. Failing that you'll have to settle for visitations if that B*tch ex-wife of your will let you. luckily Your trailer and Harley are paid for. Cuz Bouncing don't pay much. Your doing the 12 steps and living life one day at a time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dustytomes Posted February 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 Re: Zombie Apocalypse! Character: The Ex-Cop It's not your fault that old lady pulled out in front of you in that high speed chase. And It was not your fault she was the Mayor's Nana. But calling her an Old Cow probably didn't help. As an armed guard you took a 20% cut in pay and your Ford Taurus is definitely a down grade from your old Crown Vic. But oddly enough losing your old job has actually helped your marriage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Archeville Posted February 29, 2008 Report Share Posted February 29, 2008 Re: Zombie Apocalypse! The first Mutants & Masterminds game I ran (*dodges thrown tomatoes*), it was to be "Smallville meets Night of the Living Dead". Meteorites start falling, though most burn up in Earth's atmosphere. A few survive re-entry, and people exposed to them gain superpowers. Unfortunately, after a few days, the meteorite dust from the ones which burned up have spread all throughout the world, seeping into the water table and into any place that wasn't fully air-tight. Which caused the dead to rise (as slow & shambly Romero-esque ghouls), and anyone who died for any reason would also rise as a ghoul. The game went... poorly. I'd decided to let the players play as themselves with powers, and once they got 'em they began acting more selfishly & brutally than even I'd imagined. (one was Superman-Lite, one was Silver Surfer-Lite, one was Graviton-Lite, one was Shadow King-Lite, and one was Morph-Lite.) By the second session, they'd taken over a local McMansion, walled it off, brought in a ton of supplies from a nearby grocery store and pharmacy, and later 'saved' several 'hot chicks' from the surrounding area (which the mentalist 'coerced' into being our 'loyal and grateful girlfriends'). The players then declared that they'd won (one actually used those exact words), nothing I could throw at them could stop them, and suggested starting a new teen hero campaign. I hope yours goes far better than mine! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
