Well, the left doesn't seem as dark and spooky as the right…

I vote the left.

Yeah, let's go left.

REAL MEN (and seven-year-old girls) GO RIGHT

Sorry mates but my intuition is telling me to go right.

I always turn left.

Go left young uns

What's the right option? Right. Am I right?

Damnit, I wanna join.

I'll be Jeb (Short for Jebediah), A 15 year old with above-average IQ who's been cryogenically preserved since 2016, yet thanks to late 2130's technology, he has been miraculously revived. Not much is known about his interests (mostly because he doesn't talk about it), although he has a fascination with 1990's FPS games and internet.

Is able to MacGyver everyday objects into weaponry, since he has a few rolls of duct tape (and a pair of scissors), along with a copy of the Anarchist's Cookbook.

OOC: It's too late to join. The closing time was 3:00pm I think.

Ughhhh… I see lots of people choosing left, but right is cool too! So… Right?

I am serious btw

Lets go left, because why not?

You guys okay with brining in a new member to the squad? Might be useful, but then again might hinder us. Up to Gordon really.

I'll be a helpful member, since I have nothing to gain from hindering the group.

Aww damnit.

OOC: I probably shouldn't let a latecomer join because then it sets precedent. But I'll let Schabbs join this time. However, next time please join before the cut off time.

Eh, I change my mind, right. Let's go right.

Right, becuase right is right and that means right is always right… also i heard left is the devil

Lets head right.

After a bit of debate, the group decides to head down the right corridor. They walk down the hallway cautiously, keeping a sharp vigilance for any Shriekers. At first, everything seems completely safe. There appears to be no one else in the hospital. This assumption is shattered when, close to reaching the ground floor, they come across a group of 15 other humans. They appear to be looters. They seem to have similar weapons as you.

One of them steps up with a smug smirk on his face. "Well, well, well… didn't think we'd be the only ones in here. Hand over anything that you've found to us and you'll be allowed to leave alive."

Gordon tries to reason with them. "Look, we're on our way out. There's an-"

The looter interrupts him, "An evacuation, yes. But you're going to hand over your valuables. Besides, your lives are more important than whatever you're carrying, isn't it?"

The group:
1) Hands over their valuables
2) Refuse and threaten the Looters
3) Attacks the looters
4) Demands that the looters give them their stuff

Guys i think we can win, if we ask the Shrekers.

Do we even have anything valuable…?

Just some small stuff like medical supplies, flashlights, our weapons, and a couple of days worth of food and water.

Well, I'm probably just gonna hide somewhere if shit goes down.

I advise we just hand over the stuff, no one gets hurt…

I suggest giving them our stuff.

Attack them

Question: Can the zombies convert dead bodies into more zombies? Because, if so, it's probably be at least slightly to our advantage simply to leave them unconscious. 15 knocked-out looters are better than 15 extra zombies.

Pretty much, the victim has to be alive in order to be infected by the zombies. They can infect any machine, whether it is functional or not, but humans must be alive in order to be infected.

As probably the least sane person here I say we should demand they give us their stuff.

Then I move around behind them, pickpocket as much as I can, and flee while everyone is distracted.

Guys, I suggest we not confront these looters.

Remember, most of us are not very powerful. A lot of us are very young, and old. It's worthy noting that some of us are physically fit and stealthy, but when it comes to head on fighting I don't know about this.

The safest thing is giving our things away, but that'll hurt us in the long run. The next best option is refuse, and see how aggressive these people are.

What are our chances? We have to be smart about this.

I found a .22 pump rifle in my old apartment that I got for my 15th-ish birthday. It's in a chest, and it's awfully dusty. I replaced the stock with the top half of a shovel, and made a custom suppressor out of an empty coke bottle, some old socks, and a metal tube going through the middle for the bullet to pass. There's also a scope mount, and the scope on it is dusty. There's half a case of cb short ammo in my pocket, now that I have the rifle with me. A fraction of the rounds I have are hollow point, but I filled the points with black powder and sealed them.

Good thing I got with the group in time. And no, the gun isn't loaded, but I did put a bayonet (capped) on it.

OOC: I say we refuse their offer since the long term consequence out way the short term.

BIC:

Sorry squires but we can't give you any of our stuff, especially now since we're lively on borrowed times. You see we got knocked around by those shrieking fucks a few while ago and are now infected. I don't know why but for some reason the decease is traveling slowly in us right now but who knows when it decides to pick up. But you if you all want our stuff so badly then take them, I'm sure the disease didn't contaminate our supplies. You all have ten seconds to decide if you want to run away from us and not get infected or you can try risking your lives for some possible contaminated goodies?

I'll back off, since I'm in no mood for infection.

I'm writing a guide to everyone's characters, this way it'll be much easier for all of us.

Hope this helps everyone! I think I got all the info.

I meant to say above average, like near child prodigy, yet not quite, but ok.

More backstory:
In school, he had 3-7 other friends, and usually cracked tasteless jokes with his friends in his first 2 classes and at lunch.

That's not average at all. Do you want me to fix it.

Yeah, sure.

OOC: I want to change by "Dirty" Fighting skill for convincing lies and stealth. I'm planing on being something akin to a guile hero type of character here.

I say we refuse. Losing supplies is probably the worst thing that could happen.

OOC: Crix Interests were Shiny Things, like nickles

Yeah, that's my preferred option. Like I said earlier, let's test these looters on how aggressive they are, if they''re willing to attack we have a chance to defend ourselves, but it's better than losing supplies and hurting us in the long run.

@Crow and Stalker

Obviously I can't edit the post, but I can rewrite it too if you guys want.

@Gary: go ahead if you want too pal.

Can I keep my toaster? You can have whatever else you need…

Pal

Aw.

I just don't want to post so many long texts in the thread, that's all.

Maybe you can ask a mod to help you out with the edits then?

Ok, I might contact one of the forum moderators.

I'd say we refuse. We can find makeshift weapons just about everywhere, but our supplies are too valuable to hand over.

After a very brief debate, Gordon gives the looters their answer. "No, we aren't giving you our supplies. There's plenty of other things to grab a hold of in here but you can't take ours. If you know what's good for you, you'll back down and mosey on elsewhere away from us. We do have teeth, you know…" The other members of the group grip their weapons tightly.

The leader's smirk is immediately erased from his face. "Y-you're bluffing…"

Elizabeth points a crow bar at the leader. "Do we look like we're bluffing?"

The leader motions to the other looters. They lower their own weapons and step out of the way for the survivors. The group walks past them with their supplies still in their possession. Looking back briefly, the group can see the looters pushing further into the hospital to see what they can find.

Bravo guys.

Christ, that was close.
