Trapped! A Survival Horror RP
I know what you're all thinking. "Oh no, another generic zombie killing RP." But bear with me here!

Main Story:
With the infection slowly spreading, the government decided to evacuate as many people as possible, but due to the increasing rate in infectee's, they had to shut down the whole city, and barricade everyone inside, the only way out is to fly out, or go underground. No one is quite sure how the disease was carried into the city, it is believed there is a secret lab hidden somewhere in the city limits that caused the breakout, while doing experiements on the disease to try and manufacture a cure.
However, the government has one final mission: To evacuate the President's Daughter. She was due to be picked up outside her school, but because of a desperate survivor, she was pushed out of the Helicopter, her current whereabouts are unknown, but she made contact with the police using her cell phone before it ran out of battery, so she is thought to be alive somewhere.
But what about the other survivors?
This is where you fit in, you have limited options:
1. Try and survive inside the city, and hope that help will arrive to save you eventually.
2. Find the President's Daughter, and hope they rescue you along with her. (Who will be played by me, if you find her)
3. Find a way underground and escape through the sewers.
4. ?????
You have many places to start from:
1. Your house.
You were at home, maybe doing some chores, when you hear screaming on TV, you run into the living room to see chaos on the screen, shoddy camera angles film what looks like a riot in town, but then the reporter is attacked by what looks like a human. You hear a crash from outside, through the window you can see people running.
2. In the middle of town. (if you had gone out for the day)
You're walking down a busy street, when the people ahead of you start screaming, and run past you in a blind panic. You see ahead of you a small crowd of people stumbling towards everyone, they seem to be covered in blood. You can tell something is very wrong. There are news reporters on the streets, but one is violently attacked by one of these scary creatures.
3. From where you work.
You decided to stay inside for lunch, but you can hear screaming from the windows. You look out to see people running, and others being attacked by creatures that appear human. There is blood on peoples clothing, and they seem to be injured, but they keep stumbling towards people and attacking them. They seem to be coming towards your building.
4. From the barricade.
You knew ahead of time that something was wrong. A black car had gone to your neighbors house and told them to evacuate the city, so you decided to follow in your car. You got to the motorway bridge, but its completed crowded by people, there is also a huge metal wall surrounding the city that wasn't there last time you drove through here. You hear SWAT men shouting "One at a time! Through the scanners, then you can leave!" Suddenly screaming comes from near the front, and a man falls to the ground apparently dead. People move closer, and he somehow gets back up and bites someone. Both infected people are shot dead, but the SWAT close the barricade and yell: "You have all been contained for quarantine, please return to the city." The riot carries one, as people keep pushing. "If you do not leave within 1 minute, we will open fire!" Some people turn around, but most people stay pushing. You're in the middle of all this when the SWAT fire at the front of the crowd. Screaming people push past you, as a few innocent civilians fall dead at the front. You are forced to head back into town.
It'd be nice if there could be at least 1 person starting from each place, but I will let you decide where you wish to begin.
Here is what your character sheet should look like:
Name: Age: Gender: Appearance: Occupation: Short Bio: Weapon (Can be a household object, something you would find, no guns yet unless your occupation requires you to have it):
Starting Point:
If you want, you can leave out Appearance, but please mention something in your Bio if you do.

Rules And Guidelines
As always: No God-modding, No super powers. You are an ordinary human.
If you fail any tasks and are bitten, you will have 3 updates to do what you want before you become one of the infected. If you wish to stay in the story for a bit longer, you may roam as a zombie, and try and hunt down the survivors. ;) Addendum: If you can stay alive as a zombie past 4 more updates (Yes I will give you updates even as a zombie) Then you will mutate into something more powerful, Basically the longer you stay as a zombie and can avoid being killed by the survivors, the more you will mutate :P However, if they shoot you, please don't argue to much! =[ You can always return as another character is there is no one on the reserve list and the story isn't too far ahead.
If you have any questions, please post in spoilers and label them as "OOC" to talk to the other members, or "GM" for a direct question to me. If its a question for anyone then stick with "OOC". (If you don't know how to make spoilers, please ask, then edit your post when you know.)
If you want to be in the story, but all the places are taken, you can be put on the reserve sheet, where I will PM you when you can enter, which will be either when someone leaves, someone falls behind, or if I think there's room for more people. ^-^
I will add updates when I feel the story needs some advancing, or when they are requested.
There will be puzzles and/or tasks to solve, but don't worry, there won't be any anagrams. Or anything too hard (at first?).
And lastly! Have fun, this isn't deadly serious, just stick to the laws of physics please! And remember to think outside the box once in a while, because sometimes there won't be a multiple choice.
Addendum: If you wish to start with a friend, just tell me in advance, but I will only allow 1 pair to start together, so its first post gets it :P If you want help, or want to talk about this away from the thread, add me on Twitter!
Addendum: Since some players have decided to try and find the President's Daughter, I will be putting up her character sheet now =] She will be played by me. All GM posts from now on will be in code and Bold
Cargando: Query: If we become a zombie, will we be a normal boring run-of-the-mill zombie?
good question! well of course you will still be aware of your surroundings, so slightly smarter XD however, I'll be evil if you like, if you can stay alive as a zombie for more than 4 updates, I will let you mutate into something more powerful =D ok?

Name: Dean Shauger (out of name ideas. Going with me. go figure) Age: 19 Gender: Male Appearance: 5'11'' Hazel Eyes, shaved head and freshly shaven face. His hair is usually a brownish red. He has a fighters physique, weighing in at 170 pounds of long muscle (meaning he is toned but he isnt huge. Muay Thai fighter physique). He is white, and can not tan. He is about a shade or too away from being completely pale. We is in his Army ROTC uniform with his navy blue army barrette. Occupation: College Student/ROTC cadet. Short Bio: Dean Shauger used to be a Muay Thai and Brazilian ju jitsu fighter. He has trained to fight for nearly ten years of his life, and that is evident in his physique. He had always been the average college student, shaggy hair and constantly changing facial hair, when one day he decided a career in the military would be perfect for him. So he shaved his head and face, and signed up for ROTC. He just got home from a field lab exercise when he heard the news. His face is still caked in his Camo "dazzle paint". (I.E. the oily face paint used to camouflage the face and neck.) When he heard the news he quickly ran up stairs grabbed some weapons and headed out to try and find his friends.
Weapon: A WW1 trench knife (a knife with brass knuckles and a six inch double sided blade), and an all black Tomahawk based off of the old Vietnam Tomahawk. (it should also be noted that he took his field pack which includes his canteen, sleeping bag, compass, flashlight, two MREs, and a map of the city and surrounding "wilderness")
Eh, i just grabbed out of my room what i would grab out of my room if i could only grab two weapons. It's just like a combo that works together. The indians used to fight with a tomahawk and knife.
I guess i can go with out the trenchknife if i must. . . but . . . awww man.

Well, i added my field pack half because its good survival gear, and half because it is heavy so it will slow me down.
