BDE: Timeline, information, and more.

Welcome back! We've got some treats for you!


First, a timeline of plottiness!

Monday: GwG Field trip. ZVP arrives on the island late Friday night.
Tuesday: ZVP raises minions, which is NFB. No zombie-encounters this day!
Wednesday: April Fools! The NPC Zombies are out and about, and they're still dying to meet you. People can begin to get bitten, and get in fights with the zombies.
Thursday: More zombies, more fighting, more biting. People are realizing that radio wasn't kidding yesterday. Oops? Researchers can start invading the library.
Friday: Third verse, same as the first, but a whole lot louder and a whole lot worse!
Saturday: More fighting, more biting, and some of our researchers find some Very Important Information, and a Town Hall meeting on what to do with it.
Sunday: Zombies start storming the dorms on Sunday morning, as our group of kamikaze idiots daring warriors head out to try and break the curse that afternoon. At 7:00 p.m., all Fandomite Zombies will be healed in a big flash of light and sparkles. It's hard to miss, we promise, and a post will go up. You can keep playing out your encounters at the dorms and/or finale, since we know timezones are evil, but consider anything else that happens that night after seven as having everyone being 'cured'.

NPC zombies will suddenly go passive and just shuffle around until midnight, when they fall over in a heap. If you attack them, they'll fight back, but the bite no longer carries the curse. Injuries sustained from NPC zombies after seven will not magically heal, and you'd best hie yourself to the clinic least ye get maggots or something in there.

Monday: From the handwavey magic of Fandom, all the corpses of the zombies have been stacked on the beach. Almost as if the island wants them gone. Anyone who feels like doing some salting and burning is welcome to mod a pile of zombie and light it up.

Guidelines for FH!Zombies, NPC Zombies, Finale Fighters, and our Non-Zombied population can be found at [livejournal.com profile] zombiemcbitey. Of course, the rules set forth in the first post still apply.

Participation in this plot indicates agreement to abide by the guidelines set forth. Please see to it that you've read all the rules before you post. People who don't read the rules will have their brains nommed on from afar by rabid zombie squirrels.

On a scale of one to ten, how great of a name for a band is Zombie McBitey?

I feel it needs an "and the," though. Any suggestions?

OH! I do have an actual question!

What about items such as holy water, that may or may not have an effect on zombies depending on your source canon? I mean, Rikku's can change zombies back, so I'm already declaring that null and void, but would holy water hurt them? And do headshots take them out, or no?

For this event, we're going to have two different classes of zombie.

The NPCs: These are our fodder zombies. They exist to be mutilated, maimed, chewed up and spat out (probably swiftly, as they probably don't taste too hot), and killed in horrible ways. Because of this, things like holy water and headshots will absolutely cause them harm, yes. Blow out what's left of their brains, and these guys are goners.

The PCs: All but invincible, simply because we don't wanna kill you guys they were never dead to begin with, holy water might cause a PC zombie some measure of discomfort, but it won't cause them any debilitating damage. Head shots will probably slow them down, but they won't take them out. Hack us up, take us apart (with permission, of course), we will not be stopped!

Forgot to ask earlier! On Sunday, during the final showdowns at the dorms and such, is it permissible to really injure our characters? That is to say, needing-a-doctor injuries? And should we notify clinic staff in advance, if so?

ETA: and now, having *read* the Non-Zombied link above, I can see we just gotta run it by the Clinic. *facepalm* Thanks.

The clinic, absolutely, and the admin team if the injury is going to be serious enough. Standard injury procedure applies here, just the same as it does any other time. :)
