I wont be on during the weekdays from 9:00am to 4:00pm except for summer holidays, weekends, school P.E days ect... Where I'll be more free.
You look around as you step from your car, you take in the sunshine, and you watch the people mill about as they make their way to or from their vehicles. You stride toward the front door of the mall, confidence in your step, with a cold glare given to anybody who dares meet eyes with you. You are about to enter the main entrance when a woman runs out. Her dress is bloodstained and torn and she has a frantic look in her eyes. "MY GOD!!! RUN. RUN, ESCAPE!" She screams. She rushes by you before you can even begin to question her. After a few seconds, a flood of people come running out all screaming in a panicking crowd. you discreetly step to the side and You peer through the dark glass of the front door and can't see anything following them. Suddenly, the crowd turns into a mob, crushing and trampling the weak as they run. They seem to be absolutely terrified and delerious. You see scratches and bite marks over many of them. Even as you turn to go back to your car, you see some young teens breaking many windows on the vehicles taking advantage of the panic. They smash the window of your beautiful Black Ferrari, trash the inside, bust the dashboard, rip apart the wires underneath, and steal the money and CD's you have inside.(consider the car broken down), the steering wheel no longer functions) You have many options.
A.)Run with the crowd panicking and screaming B.)GO into the main entrance pushing your way through C.)You know of a back way in, behind the food court area, but you got near arrested last time you tried to sneak in there. Do it anyway D.) Try to grab someone and question them
For a starting weapon i will give you a foot long dirk, because being an assassin you would never go anywhere unarmed.
Sorry double post again >_> but i understand Panzer, I have school as well and wont be on for around that time, i will try to generally post about once a night at least hoping to give you some options. Please, i'm tryign my best seeing this is my first RPG and all, please give some positive critiscm if you have any and even if you are just observing. Also, i will be introducing a third person to the game, but that spot is reserved for a friend of mine. Sorry, but that's all

Thanks, consider this RPG full now. Unless somebody quits, is kicked out, or dies, no more people will be accepted. SORRY I also need to say, depending on your current or past career you will have abilites, and this will also determine your starting weapons.
Panzer: Agility and speed, you start with a 1 ft. Dirk (hilt and all) you are also evil, which means you have no problem with killing somebody out of cold blood or leaving a comrade behind.
Warpotato: you will have toughness, and endurance. You start with a handgun, but it is at your home, not with you. (9mm USF, 3 rounds, 13 shots per) you are toughened and will be able to make hard choices, and not hesitate, but not as well as Panzer's Evilness will let him.
Midget: you will have intelligence and persuasion. You're starting weapon will be a breifcase. (I know this is not the best of weapons, so i will make it so that you can find a better weapon wherever you start.)
These are not necessarily hp and fatigue modifiers, but moreso pluses when playing the game. Where WarPotato might fail in persuading a man to join sides with him, Midget might have a better chance. (Persuasion +)
If leaving a comrade to be eaten with his broken leg, Midget may hesitate while Panzer will not (Evilness +)
Midget i will begin you with your story, trust me WarPotato I haven't forgotten about you.
You start off in a friends house on the main road of town. It is an average two story house with a basement. It has a sizeable backyard, which has a fence that leads to some back roads behind the main road. You are a block down from a gas station, and a block in the opposite direction is ghetto apartments. You are in the living room, playing the XBOX360, Modern Warefare. You two exchange some pleasent commentary and taunt at eachother over the game. You have no car, because you left it at your house. (you are within walking distance.) all you have with you is a breifcase full of papers. You two play, and you win another round. As you've grown older, it seems your relaxation time has grown smaller. "just wait a minute man, i'm gonna go get a sprite" you say as you pause the game. "awww comon! you know i was just going to beat you!" he replies. You laugh, the score was 24 to 7 in your favor. as you walk into the kitchen, you hear a sound of wood splintering and cracking. You aren't sure, but you think it's his backyard fence. There are no windows facing the back but one that is cluttered with objects and so grimy you cannot see through it. You have many choices.
A.) Go back and get your friend. B.) Try to clean the window to see out of it C.) Open the backdoor, and yell out. D.) Go outside and investigate. E.) Leave the house. F.) call the police
As i have said before these choices are bare-bones you can add on (for instance) what you specifically yell out or, that you try to clean the window, but if it doesn't work that you immediately revert to D or another option.
Midget, you slowly open the back door. In the backyard is a garage making up one side, the house making the other, and 2 fences encompassing the other 2 sides, each with a gate set in it. There is a tree in the middle, and many bushes around it that partially obscure a portion of the fence. You can see broken boards and all the like scattered around, but you cannot see the hole which is blocked by the tree and bushes. You yell out, "Who broke the fence!" and there is no answer. Only complete and utter silence. you stop and suddenly realize, that all is silent. The traffic out front has stopped, the usual horn honking and wheels squealing is silenced. As if given a cue, birds by the thousands raise up from their usual perches, trees, telephone wires, and houses and fly away. You stare up and watch them, as they all fly away coating the sky in a thick throng. Your attention is brought back to ground-level as you hear a low moan. It is utterly terrifying and you feel weak. An evil sense pervades this place. Something unholy, and unnatural is in the backyard. Your head starts to spin and you just wish you could lie down and wait for whatever it is that broke the fence. You think logically, you pause and snap yourself out of this trance-like state, but a fowl odor still lingers in the air. (Intelligence +) you straighten up and hear a slow shuffling sound. You have many choices.
A.) wait for whatever it is, and stay wary (15m away) B.) yell out again and wait (15m away from the hole) C.) retreat inside to the doorway (20 meters away) D.) go inside and try to clear the window to see what comes out around the tree E.) Go inside and get your friend E1.) come back out with him E2.) Do one of the above after getting him (a,b,c,d) E3.) Yell for him but stay put or retreat, (15m) or (20m) F.) go closer and investigate.
Midgetman, whenever you post, please post your character sheet along with it.( don't forget to fill in weapon slot with breifcase)
Warpotato i am going to write your story beginning next.
C) As I goto the back way in I see one of the teenages who destroyed my car, vandalizing another car in an isolated part near the back so I swiftly and silently tackle him, take out my dirk, slit his throat and say that's what you get for trashing my car punk. Then wiping the blood off my dirk onto the punks shirt I goto the back entrance...
I would've answered this yesterday but I didn't have the chance to go on the computer.

Let me say, you are very evil Panzer > i will get to your story then midget's after this. Also, great expansion upon dialogue and actions after picking the choice. Thanks. Experienced RPG'er? also, it's all ok. I'm not asking you be on nightly, just check in every now and then.
Warpotato, here we go. Ima start you off.
You sigh as the boring professor continues on and the sunlight filters in to glare off your desk. You sit in a small auditorium that is three tiered meaning to sit about 50 people and watch as the professor writes off another diagram. You wish you could be back in the service, with your friends you made and comrades, serving your country. soon, your mind drifts off to those good days. You went into the Marines nearly as soon as you turned 18, and passed the training. You were promoted to Staff Sargeant soon after as the higher-ups saw your potential to climb the ranks. Alas, if only the story could've continued that way. You took an Iraqui bullet to the leg and while limping off the streets, a suicide bomber nearly killed you. You were hospitalized for weeks, then given an honorable discharge and sent home. You took it upon yourself to find a new career and now you are in college studying for medical school. (new ability) (first aid+) As you sit, you are jolted awake from your daydreams as the professor calls out your name. "war potato." he says, then repeats after not gaining your attention. "WAR POTATO!!" he yells and your daydream comes crashing out around you. you jerk up and send your papers flying all about your desk. The class laughs and your face turns red, as you see a Jillian, a hot blonde you think you might be into laughs with them. "yes?" you say looking away. "if you insist upon daydreaming in my class at least be useful in some way!" "Go see what that commotion in the hall is!" You slowly gather up your papers then walk up the steps to the door."Open the door and see whats going on!" he says, then turns to his lecture again. You slowly open the door and peer out as you watch, many students come flying by and they go running down the hall. At first you think it may be student late for class, but then there's too many to be simply that.A young guy runs down the hall screaming "Evacuate the school! RUN!" is it a prank of some sort? The people seem to be genuinely in fear and running out of terror. you hurridly close the door and tell the professor what you saw outside. he tells you, "well if something wrong we must go, all out, now, now." The professor grabs his walking stick and begins to lead a line out of the door into the screaming throng. You stay on the edges of it, not wanting to get crushed in. Weirdly, nobody can quite tell you what's wrong. you hear murmurs and rumbling of some student's talking about walking dead and "transforming." Suddenly, all the lights turn off in the east wing, sending those halls into blackness. As the last of the students and professors make their way out of the darkened area, you see dark slow moving shapes farther down the near-pitch-black hall. You can also hear screams coming from that area. WHAT IS GOING ON, is all you want to know, but everybody either keeps running, or doesn't know and is simply evacuating. You have many choices.
A.) Go inspect the darkened area, what are those screams? B.) Walk slowly, near the back of the crowd C.) Run near the front of the crowd D.) There is no E. E.) there is no F. F.) there is no E because of D, so the cancellation of F is non-existent. F.) is that you go back into the lecture room, you forgot your backpack and papers!
(remember you dont have your USF on you, it's at your house.)
