I'm thinking I'd want something along the realm of WWZ zombies, except that they don't climb all over each other, and jump like frogs- That just seemed way too unrealistic.

Whatever the human could do before turning is what they should be able to do post infection. Except that they'd act purely on instinct and act as if they were desperate. Irrational need for flesh/brains. Don't care how they get it, and will put everything they have into getting it. They will sprint the whole dang way if they have to, with no concern for their true level of endurance.

That's if we're going for the most realistic (imo)-- but if we're just going for scary, just do WWZ/I Am Legend ;)

Better not forget incubation period as well as symptoms before turning.

Yah that is what I wanted. In my opinion, it's much scarier than the WWZ option. Also, the most recent I Am Legend installation (has had countless incarnations over the years) actually featured vampires.

Alrighty...so how would we have this plague start? A virus? A Bacterium? Fungus? Native American Curse? Wrath of Nature? Dodgy batch of vegemite?

Lol, vampire-Zombies... It kinda brings it down a notch when the zombies are afraid of light-- also, I didn't know there were multiple I Am Legends-

Doesn't -really- matter how it starts on a virology level. None of us IC/RL would really be able to do jack shit about it. I think the more appropriate question is how do we come face to face with our first zombie?

I like the idea of the front counter chick bashing her way in through one of the windows in the room, being honest.

Very true, and sounds like a plan; methinks we should do this at night as we're settling in with a hot meal and nice cuppa.

Been working on possible symptoms for those infected, purely out of boredom since I used to have an interest in nasty diseases. Anyone interested in taking a look-see?

If you want, but I figured we'd just run the "Max Brooks" style zombie, i guess.

I know it's a long shot but is there still room in this?

I don't think so sorry bro; Cass had to cut out most of the original applicants anyway to slim down to this.
