THE BARNYARD BASTARDS

Five anthropomorphic sheep. One abandoned barn in rural Russia. A zombie apocalypse. And somehow, the undead aren't the biggest problem.

The world has fallen apart, and five criminal troublemakers have made themselves at home in an old abandoned barn. They're survivors, not heroes. Supplies are limited, trust is hard-earned, and their idea of a peaceful evening usually involves arguments, bad decisions, and someone threatening somebody else.

The group consists of:

• Veskyrie (Ves): A vicious, foul-mouthed Valais Blacknose sheep with a volatile temper, questionable sobriety, and an appetite nobody wants to discuss. Single, unpredictable, and easily the most dangerous member of the group.

• Valkyrie: A confident, outspoken Dorper sheep who enjoys teasing, gossip, and stirring up trouble. She's in a mutual relationship with all three men.

• Kyrielesion: A laid-back, sarcastic Zwartbles sheep with a talent for fixing broken equipment and an impressive ability to tolerate nonsense.

• Endokyrie: A practical, patient Australian White sheep who handles medical supplies, inventory, and keeping the others somewhat functional.

• Andlelkyrie: A playful, talkative Merino sheep who enjoys scavenging, music, and finding entertainment wherever he can.

Valkyrie shares an established relationship with Kyrielesion, Endokyrie, and Andlelkyrie. The three men are also close friends, with no competition or jealousy between them. Veskyrie, meanwhile, has no interest in joining their relationship.

The barn is their shelter, their hideout, and their home. Beyond its doors are abandoned settlements, desperate survivors, and walkers wandering the countryside. Inside, there's an entirely different kind of disaster.
