DEADFALL

What is DeadFall?

DeadFall is your typical zombie apocapltic Roleplay revolving around the collapse of civilisation and the rather fast demise of humanity. Those who are left are either very lucky to have escaped such a fate or are immune to the many variations of the diease which has caused the zombie mutations to develop.

How did the outbreak start?

No one quite knows how this event occured but it's rumored that the first case appeared in Africa which explains how it spread so quickly with such a dense population it spread very fast and due to the nature of the diease it was untraceable until a few days to weeks when the contracted disease takes over. That's the airborone case, however being bitten can take from a few minutes to several hours.

What are these "Zombies"?

There are several types of zombies, he most common are ramblers or their scentific name "H-B221", slow moving yet perfectly fatal, they are not too intelligent and only follow basic needs to maintain themselves and stay alive.

Type 2 or "H-A612" are fast moving zombies, somewhat intelligent and can easily find access into buildings through holes, they have the capacity of a 5 year old at problem solving and are very dangerous in groups, potentially these are common but it depends on what area's. They prefer to stick to groups and have been seen to show the territorial behavior and sometimes attack Ramblers.

There are also various reports of "special" zombies ranging from all types and sizes with superior intelligence although the ports are vague and there has only been a few sightings although some reports do add up to some of these rumors such as the SkyDown Military base in Dallas which was overrun in a matter of hours even though there was at least 60 personal maintaining that base at the time, most soldiers were found to have had full ammo loaded in their weapons and yellow like acid marks were found around where the bodies should be.

Factions

Military
What's left of the military are mostly scattered around in groups, they are somewhat organised although there is no longer any HQ or command to supply orders so they are only following what they were trained to survive and help. Although in most cases they only act upon their own interests and have been known to be hostile to survivors who they deem a threat to their "society".

LoneWolves
Bandits, Merc's and criminals, people who are willing to do something for a price and take care of their own, they don't generally shoot survivers but they will strip you bare and take your supplies if they catch you. As one bandit claimed "bullets arn't cheap".

Valor
Ex Servicemen, Police and once civilised men are the kind of people in valor, they try and help out survivers and have a hobby of hunting down zombies, they typically war with the LoneWolves and have several disputes with the military over resources and land although they generally try not to get involved with them.

Templar Union
Anarchists, Devil worshipers and racists are in the Templar Union, they are generally hated by all other factions, they want to create a "Superior" race in the new world and are always seen fighting other factions, although they are generally neutral with the Lone Wolves. Their main goal is to either convert those into the Templar Union or remove them from the world entirely.


Sub-Factions

Traders/Caravans
People who are still trying to make a living in the dying work, they get by with what they find and loot from buildings and sell it off to survivors and factions, although theres not much profit to make, food ammo and weapons are always things they are interested in. These people also repair weaponry and mould bullets for ammo.

Scientists/Researchers
Even though the governments of the world and the fact that the world is now convered in darkness, these people still try to find the "cure" to the disease, although no one has yet to make a breakthrough. These people collect artifacts, samples and other unique specimens for research, trappers are often selling zombies to the scientists for experiments. Scientists also help with developmen of better weaponry in exchange for these services.
