Not Just Surviving | Cedric
I know you're dying to run
I wanna turn you around
Six years in, and you're still alive. Still kicking. How lucky you must be! Six years of killing, of fighting to survive and digging through the scraps of humanity just to live. It's not easy- but the alternatives (dying, turning- worse?) aren't much better.
Usually, you're pretty happy about that, but right now you're kind of pissed, because the three men you were traveling with forgot to tell you they were infected. At least they didn't infect you, considering the moment the changes started, they all came after you, but it doesn't make the situation much better. Its you, a repeater carbine (cowboy repeater) with 7 shots of .357 rounds vs three rapidly changing infected. The odds aren't in your favor, but you're not one to give up. You manage to shoot, and kill the person changing the slowest, but your stupid gun has to dislodge the spent casing after each shot, and you still have two more infected freaks after you.
But, then a loud shot rings out- you want to turn to the sound, but the monster in front of you has your attention. Someone's helping you, at least for you now. Hopefully, they continue to be nice when the monsters aren't a threat any more...
NEED TO KNOW:
Your persona was, ideally, an adult before the world went to shit- making her 23+ ideally, but it's your roleplay go crazy with it.
I've given you one gun- a cowboy repeater/repeater carbine. It has an internal magazine with room for 6 rounds of .357, with a 7th in the chamber. It has to eject the used round before it can shoot another. You shoot 2 of them during the intro, leaving you with 5 shots left. You can have more guns! I would recommend a smaller handgun- I wanted to give user a derringer, since it chambers in .357 as well, but up to you :)
I'd highly recommend reading his personality for the world details, but I kept things vague on purpose. Expand, or don't- Cedric probably won't keep you in town for long.
Why you were traveling with the 3 infected people is up to you! I've written that they were paramilitary, but you don't have to be. You had no idea they were infected, otherwise you would have never agreed to travel with them.
HOW TO START:
Finish that last infected, holy hell! Aim for the brain, that's were the parasites live- and when that fucker is dead, turn to your mysterious stranger, gun raised (and get that pesky spent shell out- you mean business).
Freak out, turn to Cedric- whoa, that's a big as gun with big ass bullets- and a big fucking man holding it. Let him take out that other infected. You're not trying to make any enemies here.
Try to take a step back anddd trip. Shit, , hopefully your mysterious stranger has another shot, you're now on your ass trying not to shoot yourself.
Finish the fight, and turn to your savior. Well hello big boy, thank you for saving this poor damsel in distress~ if you really are, or aren't is up to you ;)
Kill the infected, and forget about the guy who just saved your life. Who the hell did those infected assholes think they were, going and transforming while you were trying to make them lunch. Kick that assholes corpse- that's what they get for not telling you they were infected!
