WAKING UP
You wake up in a studio in an apartment building that's got windows all boarded up. You remember being sick, you remember dying, and you probably can't believe this is the afterlife. If you head out into the hall you'll see that others are heading out too, looking just as confused as you are. All of you died, most of you of the same thing. If you head down to the front office, you'll meet a native resident who will explain in brief that you're in Aqora, a settlement living among the undead and that people like you show up every so often. You'll be given an informational pamphlet, a shitty cell phone, and a walkie. Then you'll be expected to figure it out. No one has time to hold your hand.
EXPLORING
Miscellaneous things here: shops and restaurants turned into places to live, apartments full of people living day to day, the main focus (the library) being the hub where people come to learn and children go to school. Because school never ends, even in the apocalypse. Feel free to buddy up with other newcomers to figure out what the hell is going on.
OR, say you've been here a while. It's time to figure out how to get more supplies! Let's go on a supply run. You'll just be heading out past the barricades to start, and you'll have to dig through buildings to try and find things. If you're lucky, maybe you'll hit a cache. If you're unlucky, you'll find too many undead to fight. No one goes out alone though, so hopefully your partner can help.
"NETWORK"
Someone has set up a rudimentary network using the nearest cell towers. You can communicate with others in the area but only via voice and text. Anything further out is voice only via walkies. You can have a username or leave it blank.
Have fun, campers. |

I see. Then we are truly lucky to have you. You have my thanks for your hard work. It can't be easy, given our strange situation.
no subject
thank you very much. every day i hope my services won't be needed.
how are things for you here, dojima-san? is there anything you need?
no subject
That's reasonable of you. I hope the same.
Ah, I'm doing quite well for myself so far. I've been fortunate enough to run into one of my old friends, so it seems at the very least I won't have to do this alone. We're in the process of searching for some kind of lodging, is there an area of Aqora you would recommend?
no subject
as for lodgings, i would suggest the milano lofts. there are outside stairs in the form of fire escapes, which means there won't be the issues with lighting that there would be with the internal stairways and needing lanterns or candles on the steps. there are also a lot of windows that allow for plenty of natural light inside.

Additionally, if you should find yourself having any issue with Mine... please inform me as soon as possible. I know he can be a bit curt, but he is a good man. He's my responsibility as much as I am his.

to go is certain death and the loss of the supplies at the same time. i've known men like him back home [ ahem ] and i worry that he'll become too focused on the supplies to the detriment of his own safety.
