I have a problem with my world.
awoke, a drunken sod, to the sounds ofgunfire outside. The house was on fire. Pulling himself off the stained couch he had fallen unconcious upon, he swigged from his cheap win jug and grabbed the tight wool sweater that was on the floor in the corner.
-Outside, most of a sizable horde were following the sound of gunfire. Good riddance. Fusco shuffled from his isolated house to the on up the street. Being so isolated, it was easy to avoid most of the zombies as nothing was here. But that idiot must have riled the zombies up.
-Collecting clothing and other utility goods, Fusco only finds socks for his bare feet. Better than nothing. His first kill is a feral hunter whole jumped upon a patio chair to cut off his escape. Fusco lit it on fire and beat at it with his heavy stick.
-I begin taking notes, pictures. pic 00 is mappy. The southern @ is the spawn point, a rather pleasant house.
-I find a s&w 22a in a bathroom with 100 rounds. was being chased inside and freezng so I contemplated stayng.
-I head towards a house surrounded by craters. Its flanked by the river and has open field to the south. A spitter destroyed the 2 front windows, but Ive closed all the curtains and hid in the back bedroom after taking all the supplies Id want. There is a basement, but Im not 100% ready to tackle it without a light source. A torch when the sun comes up.
-It is 0547 when I begin to organize my loot for planning.
-I spend the whole day levelin up my sewing. The basement has 1 child, and its a reading room. I found under the hood, and some batteries.
-While walking around from house to house, I see a man off in the distance flaming the monsters. It doesnt look like hes aiming to survive.
-On the street, I found a car with its sidepaneling around the front wheels pulled away. It had keys in the ignition, so I hopped in and filled the tank with the 800 untis of gas I had.
-I drove south, the closest edge of the city I could see. Parking by the river, I check the car to find a flashlight in the glove box. Cha-ching.
-My head is fairly damaged, and Im tempted to try to sleep for health. Pic 02 is the status bar.
-I wake up to find my gas tank was leaking. >|:[ pic 03 gas leak
-Opening the car door on the side of the wolf, I capped it. I then walked directly east so the ant couldnt path around to me. Walking to the city maintainance center I saw several wolves.
-They were occupied with chasing squirrels and dogs. I lit a fire to throw off my scent some. I hope to find a working car there, and/or gas.
-I spend the day reading my mechanics to level 1 inside a house and sleeping. A hallucination woke me up and when I tried to leave a spitter was hangning out in the living room
-Ducking into and out of houses, I eventually find a beetle that isnt alarmed. I drive it off south once more. I have 8 registered kills, and a few more ones from fire damage on this, the third day.
-I loot a cathedral for nothing much, and explore for places to find mechanics tools. I find a car on a bridge and swap vehicles for the greater storage space.
-I go out looting in the night, manually exploring the unknown. I get a boxing gym, a liquor store, and several houses. Though I still dont have what I want. pic 04. I do have a glock in addition to my .22 and my crafted sling.
-I find several buildings in the city worth looting, albiet not in the day with a bloodied head. I survey the area and head south to find triffids and plant monsters. There is a mansion there with a plant anomalie in its center that prevented me from sleeping and killed several zombies who were also compelled to explore the noise.
-I awaken at night and head off. I need a new car or a welder. I have googles. pic 05 a map of the area south of the spawn point. it appears to be part of the same metropolis or close enough to count.
-It was very east, for the most part, to explore, as the roads were wide. Though it may be harder in the dark.
-pic 06 there is intense fighting in the fields south of the town.
-I then go to the hardware store somewhat inside the city. I kill several mutts, and lightning strikes just as Im climbing into the store, to my detriment.
-I find a joint hardware/garage. it has my welder, and a pack of 5 skeletal dogs and a shocker brute were in my way. I batted down the dogs, threw the molativ at the shocker, and pea-shooted him until he smacked me. I ultimately won.
-I have my welder, pic 08 is me taking off.
-I got my ass chucked into the water by a brute.
-Im exploring, theres no good place to set up. There’s the river stretching from west to south, the swamps south of that, the city stretches mishmash from north to east, and there’s no central access. I found a semi-decent lava shaft that could be used if I build my own house.
-
I cant find a place to set up shop. Im very picky about this stuff, and theres just so much in the way. Rivers, swamps, city, and forest, all come together to isolate the character. Id have no purpose. Maybe I should just make a mobile fortress?
