Its literally the first thing in the OP.

Spoiler: not here tho (click to show/hide)

[Narrator] This is the third attack. The third "Tsunami". A flood of bodies-living dead- so thick it looks like water. They gathered on one side of the city, in a huge mob, and just ran from one side to the next. Its like they are trying to sweep out anyone left alive. They arn't very perceptive during the Tsunamis. Even less so than usual. Sure, you get within ten...twenty feet, they'll try to get ya like normal. But if you're fast, you can escape. And the others just ignore you too-just keep running from one side to the other. Not like normal when they swarm ya like bees and won't stop tracking you until you killed them or they killed you.

First time it happened was at the start of all this. Killed the most people, to. Some got bit and are back on their feet. Others were trampled and are still smudges on the ground. Nobody knew what was going on. Nobody knew how to get away. The lucky and the strong survived, but so many didn't. Second time was almost as nasty. Most people thought we had zombies understood. The Tsunami was just a one time thing, something that exists only in the past. Others got the idea in their head to 'ride out the storm', loading up and sitting pretty in a bunker. Sometimes that worked, but there was just so many of them. Bunch of positions were over-run when the guys in 'em ran out of bullets or collapsed from exhaustion. Some didn't leave themselves anywhere to run. Now we're up to the third, and you know how the old saying goes. Everyone noticed the warning signs. This time we are prepared...

We must be, right?
[/end Narration]

True to the Narration, a massive swarm of undead is approaching the camera. Some are recognizably human. Others are in various states of disrepair. The camera focuses on one shambling forward-crawling with its arms. Its lower body had been removed at some previous point. Countless legs stumble over him-most at only a brisk walking pace. Several break through the windows of nearby buildings, changing their straight path only when faced by obstacles as difficult to pass as a brick wall.

The camera then focuses on our Four Heroes. Perhaps they knew each other before, perhaps this is the first time they had ever seen each other. In whatever case Fate has decided to bring them together for a single purpose: Survival.

((Game: START~! As I said in the OOC, these are "Sub-mooks". As such, you can start doing actions without needing a roll. Interacting with the scenery will also be done without a roll, so go nuts in your descriptions!))

Unrelated but a link here from ic be great.

"from"

[Stirk]

That was a weird way of saying it then :-0.
Should I assume you are riding out the storm in your zombie fort while Ocean vanishes mysteriously?

[RoseHeart]

You just misread the syntax I guess.

Please do.

[Stirk]

Rose, you got to go with them so we can get the plot moving. Maybe your hungry, maybe you need meat for your zombie chemicals, maybe you just wondered to the same place they did. We really need to get the ball rolling here >_>.

Ocean is still MIA/AWOL.

[Stirk]

Going. Slooooowly, but going.
I am willing to hit you with gangsters at any time if it feels like it is going too slow .

[Stirk]

Reminding everyone this still exists, currently waiting on Rose to continue conversation; Ocean to appear dramatically.

[RoseHeart]

Maybe seek a replacement. For Ocean.

[IcyTea31]

Room for one more?

[Stirk]

Room for one more?

Yes, that would be great. We are actually one down after Ocean vanished.

Name: Leon Long
Concept: A sharp-dressed and sharper-minded man who's survived this long simply by being where the zombies aren't. Cold and calculating, Leon practically runs on the Unspoken Plan Guarantee, preparing for seemingly unlikely eventualities with charming precision.
Though he was born in the UK, Leon moved to his family's roots in Hong Kong to study statistics (and a bit of geomancy and chaos magic on the side, though he never really believed in them) once he was old enough. With near-prodigal ability, he applied his knowledge to games and soon found himself traveling around the world to play on more and more prestigious tables. The first Tsunami, however, was something nobody could predict, though Leon quickly adapted to the situation, escaping unscathed.
But what good are statistics when the dead walk? Simple: predictable as they are, counting zombies is no different from counting cards.
Melodramatic hook: "I had to make a lot of sacrifices to get this far. Including one I held dear. Please let no more good people fall by my hand."

Already said it in discord, but looks good! Was there any special equipment, items, etc that you wanted to loot during the relatively safe downtime? You can also introduce yourself now, or wait until I push everyone to the Restaurant.

[RoseHeart]

Fallacy, is it okay if your restaurant has an area with ticket games for kids and a place to get prizes?

[IcyTea31]

Was there any special equipment, items, etc that you wanted to loot during the relatively safe downtime?

Well, for one, though the standard Bobcat (8/1/4) is cool and concealable, it is a little lacking in dakka. A 1911A (10/2/4) would be the go-to for a bit extra firepower.

Alright. Anything else? The current scenario doesn't really need concealablit anyway .

[IcyTea31]

Assault rifles, explosives, gas masks and such would be nice, but wouldn't pass the groaner rule in my opinion. They can probably wait until there's a proper excuse.
