For RaRa, TGG, and Kamini


RP

Day 30
A month ago, an unknown disease broke out and began causing mass chaos. People are dying in the streets. Whole families are being turned. Some people have begun throwing the word “zombies” around. I still have no idea what's going on but what's left of the government is telling us that everything is under control. Ya right! They can barely even tell us what is happening! And now we are hearing rumors of whole cities being bombed! The world as we know it is gone. And there is nothing we can do about it.


About:

Show hidden content
This roleplay is set in “The Last of Us” universe, just under 20 years since the outbreak began. The roleplay will start in a safehouse bunker on the outskirts of San Francisco. You can come up with your character's own, unique backstory as long as it fits within the rules. I have a loose plot for the roleplay so if I start noticing its deviating too far from it I’ll let you all know.


Rules:

Show hidden content
1. All PH rules still apply (and PH roleplay rules)
2. I reserve the right to reject your form (I will PP/PM you why if I do so)
3. Limit the one liners please, they kill roleplays (I have my own definition that I'll explain if I see it)
4. Only two characters per person (If you have good reasons for why you should have more than one, let me know, however I don’t want too many characters in a zombie apocalypse rp so I reserve the right to deny your request)
5. The characters name must be a city or generalized area in the US to signify where the character is from (i.e. Miami, SoCal, etc). Password is if you link a past roleplay you were in
6. If I reject you more then 3 times for the exact same or similar reasons, you are automatically banned
7. Max 3 reasonable weapons (melee or firearm but no more then 2 firearms. No absurdly crazy weapons and remember, ammo is limited in this world so chose your firearm wisely)
8. When filling out your form, please remove things that are in parenthesis. It’s mostly so its easier on my eyes.
9. Reserving a spot is fine but please communicate if you are reserving a spot. I would like to know if you are no longer interested.
10. Have fun! Let me know if you have any questions!

Character name:
Smoky (Great Smokey Mountains), named Taylin before the outbreak
Age:
31
Gender:
Female
Appearance:
Here
Personality:
Rugged and rough, harsh and cold. Smokey is almost constantly yelling, her words possessing a harsh edge every time she speaks. It's never easy on the ears, and she could only be described as your stereotypical drill sergeant. Smokey has no concept of physical or mental limits, almost always pushing herself and others to the point of collapse. She's a hard, but demanding worker, seemingly only having her mind set on survival and nothing else. It's gotten to the point where she seems to be a machine, showing no emotion or care for anyone or anything. She finds allies to be a hinderance, insisting on going solo unless absolutely necessary.

In reality, she's just another one of my edgy and traumatized characters and just needs a hug. Poor gal. Definitely has the potential to be soft if she doesn't stab you for going in for a hug, or show a suspicious amount of kindness to her.
Weapon(s):
Barrett M82 Sniper rifle and a Sickle
Other:
I have literally only seen the TV series, so apologies if I'm a bit lost/inaccurate lol
RP
Grew up on the edge of Gatlinburg, some ways into the wilderness of the Smokies. She was fairly young when the outbreak hit, but chose to stay local until she was forced out when raiders, military, and infected started trickling in. Her and her fairly large family went on a fun little Oregon Trail adventure and headed west, inevitably running into issues along the way. Insert your typical story about sacrifice, betrayal, surprise infections, and you're left with Smokey and her father, plus her eldest brother, still on the run. Oh yeah, she's bi btw, the rest is TBRPD

Character name:
Lynden

Age:
54

Gender:
Has better things to have a crisis over [It/He]

Appearance:
[x]
A silver fox who wears age like a statement piece, Lynden is very clearly past its prime though unfortunate genes did mean that it started greying very early on in its life. Still it makes it work, old tattoos from its youth only starting to fade thanks to regular touch-ups and a physique that speaks to years of hard manual labour. But age has started to catch up to it, deep crows feet that rarely ever wrinkle anymore and the constant presence of well loved (read: kinda busted up) prescription glasses perched atop a slightly crooked nose only the first things you see. Behind these superficial cosmetic changes, old injuries from a rowdy youth means that it is paying for it in the present with constant reminders of its age. But despite it all, Lynden ties its fading hair up into a ponytail, slides pads over aching knees, and fixes cracked lenses over tired brown eyes, venturing out into the hellscape all over again.

Personality:
Lynden is probably the closest thing to kindness that you will ever get in these gods forsaken lands. Though it is gruff and short in its words, very rarely every saying anything beyond the necessities, its the actions that give it away. If there is someone who needs its assistance, it will sternly shoo whoever it is away while throwing something mildly useful at their head. When asked why it would ever waste such precious resources on strangers, all Lynden will do is shrug. "Its what they would have done" is all the explanation that is given. While it never volunteer for night watch shifts, already found in a post long after lots have been drawn, and reluctant to comfort anyone though they will find that somewhere during their breakdown someone had draped a somewhat intact blanket over their shoulders, Lynden likes to keep to itself and work alone. Though, for some reason, no one really ever leaves it alone. Especially not the young ones who yearn for the rare nights where it will sit in the common sleeping areas and with whispered reverence; recite from memory all manners of bedtime stories.

Weapon(s):
Shepherds Sling and Knife

Other:
Bisexual but isn't really looking for romance

Originally lived on a sheep farm in Canada with his husband and daughter before the outbreak. The three of them travelled down to San Francisco after a few years of trying to survive on their own to meet up with his husband's family for better chances of survival but Lynden was the only one who arrived in the ruined city.

Named itself after the city that he used to regularly cross the border to because his husband is a picky asshole and only eats raspberries from Lynden, Washington

Character name: Aspen (Colorado)

Age: 40

Gender: Female

Appearance: She has a somewhat frail build. Slightly muscular after the hardships of fighting to survive. She has a pixie cut to keep hair out of her face- it's also incredibly easy to maintain (who wants to worry about brushing hair in the middle of an apocalypse?) Her natural hair color is brown, shown through faded pink hair. Aspen's guilty pleasure is dyeing it pink on the rare times she manages to find it from broken down stores.
Aspen likes to wear sports bras with a loose, off the shoulder, shirts over it and comfortable pants- totally impractical for fighting, but hey, one has to live a little right? She has multiple cartilage piercings in her left ear and a sleeve of flower tattoos on her right arm.

Personality/backstory: A soft spoken and kind girl. She lacks real survival instincts, instead using rather flawed, TV and book logic... although it can't be that flawed considering the fact that she managed to survive for this long. She worked at a coffee shop owned by her friends. The three spent their days peacefully working together. They all thought they had the perfect life, until the outbreak caused their deaths. Aspen barley escaped with her life and now resides with other survivors in a bunker. Only having a locket with their picture and memories of their time together to remember them by.

Weapon(s): Katana and cross bow

Other: As you already know, I may be a bit inactive. But I should be active enough to participate in this RP

Character name: Florence Oregon
Age: 23
Gender: female
Appearance:
Personality:
INTP (The Logician)| 5w4

Deeply curious, independent, and very self-sufficient, Penny has many interests and often becomes an expert in more than one area. Spending time alone, reading, and exploring their interests is the ideal of a perfect time for this highly introverted type. Though they are rational and emotionally distant in general, they show unique creativity and a sense of humor within their closest circle and at work. They simply cannot be shallow and artificial, even if they want to be. Their inquisitive, powerful minds see beyond the surface, which is why they appear to know almost everything. When it comes to friendships and romantic relationships, these people are very selective. They prefer serious commitment and take an unusually long time to warm up. They are the most likely to feel comfortable traveling alone, dedicating their time to learning new things and following their interests. They exude delicate but pleasant energy, and people around them are often curious about this sophisticated, silent type. They are the person in your circle who speaks rarely but smartly and with purpose. This is why others are often so impressed with the depth of their insight and the speed at which they collect information. pride themselves on their unique perspective and vigorous intellect. They can’t help but puzzle over the mysteries of the universe. Penny is the type to prefer solitude, as they can easily become immersed in their thoughts when they are left to their own devices. They are also incredibly creative and inventive, and they are not afraid to express their novel ways of thinking or to stand out from the crowd.

Character name:
Atlanta

Age:
25

Gender:
Female

Appearance:

Since the outbreak of the apocalypse, Atlanta’s frame has evolved to a leaner and angular build, her athleticism increasing. Her thick cut of edgy chocolate brown hair portrays the her obviously own trimmed pixie cut, with a stain of indigo pigment streaking her tips. Her azure eyes swirl with dusty hues of adrenaline and nervous excitement contrasting to the two silver hoops on her ear.

Personality:

Atlanta’s personality is quite different to her name. Though she is warm-hearted and empathetic, her tranquility can soon turn to a wild frenzy of emotions and temper. She likes to think of herself as open minded even if she seems stubborn and hard-headed such as the noble Taurus that she takes after.

Weapon(s):
Knife, Shurikens

Other:
She always carries a set of lock picks..

Character name:
Detroit

Age:
27

Gender:
Male

Appearance:
Shoulder-length, light brown hair. Blue eyes. Hoodie, black shirt, usually scowling. Thin and tall, at 6'0. Light on his feet, and surprisingly strong.
here

Personality:
Rather dry, rude, and unabashedly himself, Detroit is not a very likeable person. He has a tendency for carnage and destruction- whether it be with his pistols or his baseball bat that's been with him through thick and thin. He believes completely in the ideal of "kill your enemies before they kill you". He hides his highly intelligent, knowledgeable self behind an exterior of almost singleminded lone-wolf-ed-ness, sometimes deliberately sabotaging himself despite his best judgement, despite knowing the best way to go, just to go off on his own. It's not that he hates people, no, he just chooses not to be around them. With those he deems capable and not going to murder him, he will half-heartedly agree to work with them. His rather dry and sarcastic nature makes it difficult for people to actually enjoy his presence.

Weapon(s):
His prized Colt Double Eagle and his rather surprisingly sturdy baseball bat. Has a knife in case something goes wrong.

Hi, got referred by another user, hope i’m not too late.

The_Lonely_Storyteller (You can call me Story)


Character name: Ohio (I know nothing about American geography, and Ohio was the first thing that came to mind. Vegas sounded too cliche.)

Age: 30

Gender: Nonbinary, but can go by she/her or they/them

Appearance: Can i pp the image to you? It’s not explicitly NSFW, but it shows a bit of skin. I’ll drop a worded description here if no.
Long blond hair, black tank top and blue jeans, black eyes. Extremely fit.

Personality: Likes to make others confused with cryptic words, while dancing around infuriatingly simply topics like where she comes from, her name, her age and such. They have a strong sense of loyalty to those she likes, not enough to get herself killed for them, but enough to work with them better than with other people and share supplies (Looking out for number 1). Hums “The battle of hymm and the republic” incessantly, which drives others crazy. Doesn’t like to think too much on stuff, cus she’ll just be reminded of her failures, battle helps keep her mind busy. She ofc doesn’t actively seek out fights, she knows when and when isn’t a good idea to fight, and how to archive and carefully distribute her bullets. Adhd as hell-

Weapon(s): A bayonet attached to a submachine gun she affectionately calls Molly, an electric spear that looks something like the one the protagonist of sweet home uses, called Dan, and a sniper rifle named Ella.

Other: She was of course, a girl from Ohio. She hit the road when the zombie infection started with her three friends, but they separated over differing goals. She named her guns after them, almost obsessively cleaning them. She’s been on the move for a while, never staying in the same spot, she prefers to sneak past zombie hoards than killing them Cus she still feels a little guilty about killing her old man with molly, who belonged to her dad prior to his zombiefication. Craves interaction and attention from another human being.

Rip omagatoki 😔, this is the old rp i’ve been in.
