The setting

The game will begin in a small town, Ringgold Ga, just off of highway 75 south of the Ga/Tn state lines. It is near Chattanooga, TN and north of Dalton, Ga. It mid-summer, some time in July, and very hot. And very humid. you have to love the southeast in the summer. More humidity than coastal Florida, hot as the Texas panhandle, and alternating between too much rain or not enough in regular bouts.

The characters can know one another or not. They can be a very detailed group or become one. In Ringgold there is a small group of survivors, Christian based folks, that is welcoming to all people. It has gotten them robbed at times, and gotten two of their members killed. But, they persist anyways.

Think about how your character came to be in Ringgold. Also, think about where your character would be headed? To Ringgold specifically or just stopped there in their travels?

In this game the characters will face undead, starvation, dehydration, exposure, insanity, violence, and injury. It will focus on real survival issues as well as hostilities and zombies to create a more unique survival experience in the post apocalyptic setting.

Ask any and all questions about the world that you want, we will detail it as we go.
Thanks.
