My latest was just murdered this morning. Opened the wrong door trying to make a shortcut to the surface, and a turret one shot her from two tiles away. When you are carrying too much, you don’t have enough time to slam the door shut.
Little back story: she opened a lab on day 1 and moved in immediately. I thought she worked there before. All her days were spent gathering supplies from the deeper levels and learning every skill she could. She stored a lot of pulped zombie corpses in a room on the surface, what i liked to imagine was a morgue. Then she made mutagen from them.
When she died, I created my alterego and went back to take revenge. After a day long journey of running from Zombears I reached the lab. After a week of training and eating all the stored junk food, I killed the two B and headed to the lower levels. I searched for an hour in real life, destroying every turret I run across. When I finally found her corpse, her killer was gone. The damn thing gained sentience and left! The only thing what was left at the scene, is the one 9mm casing of the killer bullet - which I carved her name on.
I kinda wish we could make graves and bury the (un)dead.
