RATS

[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.

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!

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. ]

Can't we just fight them?

We'll save ten passengers.

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. ]

Re: TURN-IN

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

Badass and Roxy shall be at a front end of the car. Robin will be ready to catch the baby with ninja skills and previous train walking experience and Badass with her combat skills for at least one kid and whoever is free will go for the second.

Zelos and Ruby will be in the back of the car to try and catch whoever Badass and Robin can't, aiming for parents, but kids priority. All while the train is in motion.

Whoever isn't nabbed and alive, Zelos will be throwing a knife to mercy kill.

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. ]

[I am holding a baby.]

[Oh god, I'm holding a baby, I don't think I can put this guy down ever.]

[I will just...hold them. For the rest of the game.]

[Yes.]

[This is what happens when your Scratch Counterpart is called Mom.]

...if we have military, it's more likely we can keep everyone on here alive.

Re: DISUCSSION

[glorifiedtrash]

[Okay well they have kids, success!]

...Well great is this a we can't take both scenario?

[peoplediewhenikillthem]

[ One of the kids won't let go of Badass' leg no matter how unimpressed she looks. ]

I've got an idea.

TURN-IN

Re: TURN-IN

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

They will take half of each group. If either group refuses, that group WILL be left behind, this is an ultimatum.

The train will be put into motion. Ruby and Robin will try and pull on more passengers while it's going.

Zelos will try and keep the civilians calm.

Badass will babysit the military and knock out any of them who might get rowdy.

ROUND 4

[soulping]

[ There are two passengers here, but the horde is hot on their heels. You think you can most likely get them to jump into the train, if you slow down just a bit. ]

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. ]
