AMALOMLETTES

[soulping]

[ The Traveler appears before you as you board your train, which appears to be a team-themed, sparse, and incredibly modern, like the inside of a commuter train. ]

Today's dream is the dream of a conductor, who, despite the worst befalling his world, endeavoured to make sure his train still ran on time. Death ravaged the land, the bloodied bodies of the fallen rising to claim the living as their prey. Decisions had to be made. He had rivals.

Did he save poor lost souls that were not on his schedule? Did he utterly crush his enemies, to assure supremacy and secure his own life? It doesn't matter. He died, in the end, along with his world.

And so to, shall you. Do you wish to attempt to avert the course of history? The story of the Undead Assault Upon The Locomotive Enthusiasts of The Year Two Thousand and Twelve is now yours, and yours alone.

Buckle up.

RULES

[soulping]

The object of this game is to either keep as much of your team alive as possible or rescue the most passengers!

- Every round, you will have to make a choice or perform a task in order to save a given amount of passengers from DEADLY ZOMBIES.
- You might get infected, depending on choices! If this happens, you will die two rounds later, but may choose a team to attack when you rise from the dead, either infecting one of their members, or killing some of their passengers.
- You have one penny! You may use this at any time to derail one of the other teams trains, resulting in them gaining no passengers for the next round, and having to sacrifice either one of their teammates or give up half of their passengers.
- Most passengers and least deaths wins!

ROUND 1

[ chugga chugga chugga

First stop is fairly uneventful! The horde has not yet caught up to you but...it's approaching. Fast. You can save up to 20 passengers, but only if you risk the horde reaching you! Saving at least ten carries absolutely no risks, but any more than that will increase the chances you are attacked. ]

...I would say that we should take twenty. We have enough people to afford one death and attacking another team would be no major deal.

... [anything involving death or harming at this point is just not cool :/]

Grabbing 10!!

ROUND 2

[soulping]

[ There is a family of five, a mother, father, two small children, and a baby running alongside your train, crying for help! You could break to stop for them...

But then you'd be off-schedule, and that horde is still chasing you. There's not even a gaurantee you'd be able to stop the train and get them on in time. ]

...We would be risking an injury on a 'might.'

We may wish to zombify one of our members, if only to attack another team... I would say it is a worthwhile expenditure, if we want a passenger victory as opposed to a living members victory.

We are stopping for the passengers.

ROUND 3

[soulping]

[ At your second stop, there are fifteen passengers! This choice is much the same as the first one, except there are two groups that demand you let them on.

One is the military, who can surely supply you with medical supplies and possibly weapons who want on because they are clearly the only ones who can fight this menace, and the other is just a group of ordinary civilians who are trying to survive.

Otacon is now infected. His blood is becoming incredibly foul-smelling and black, and the skin seems to be peeling off of his body, as random patches of his flesh become incredibly squishy and grey, and incredibly painful to touch. ]

DISUCSSION

[codecmoment]

[ Still in his spot, curled up on the floor. He's stopped crying and has decided to just lie there and let it happen. ]

Re: DISUCSSION

[goodbyenurse]

...How many can be safely taken on without risk?

TURN-IN

[soulping]

Re: TURN-IN

[goodbyenurse]

We shall attempt to save both groups, first the civilians, then the military with a hemispheric perimeter around the entrance we are using that will fall back to inside the train once they are let on. If necessary, Regina will risk herself to help ensure perimeter security.

Also, Professor's turning shall target Epona, and our penny shall go to Takshaka.

ROUND 4

[soulping]

[ You pass through a crowd of zombies. Because you were off-schedule, everyone has died, here. There's not much to do but tend to any wounded you may have and relax that at least now you don't have to make a choice. ]

FINAL ROUND

[soulping]

[ Your train grinds to a stop. It's the end of the line. Did you really think you could run forever?

Here's your final choice: get together all of your teammates and passengers, and decides who stays to fight and die, and who escapes this night alive. ]
