The year is 2023. The bombs dropped 5 years ago after a 5 year war. 2013...The day that everyone was shocked. The war started- China, North Korea, and many other similarly governed countries launched a full out non-nuclear attack on many first-world countries, knocking quite a few to their knees. The years went on and the Chinese led enemy got desperate. They launched the nukes.
Luckily the government of the United States had had enough sense to construct fallout shelters. You survived, and now the area outside is somewhat safe to travel in. A group of 20 is leaving the bunker to explore- you are one of them.
(Technology is roughly the same as it was in 2012, with a few improvements in the fields of war, but most large scale weapons and vehicles were destroyed or disabled by EMPs.---Gameplay is not multiplayer since this is my first game. Paper money is not used, but coins or trading are still viable means of marketing. Pick up backpacks for extra space, conserve ammo, and use good judgement when it comes to trusting others. Be smart, because the world will kill you off if NPCs don't, and then you will have to make a new character! Good luck, and keep those Geigers handy!)
You step outside with the others into the warm air. It's hot, dusty, and bright, but the fresh air is refreshing. You sigh, taking in the view as your eyes begin to adjust. A fellow volunteer tells you that they are splitting into groups of five. You are joined into a group- Jake Meller, a tall commanding man, introduces you to the others; Susan, an old friend of yours; Bill, a shy teen who mumbles a, "hey," to you; and Jax, a little punk who always seems to annoy everyone. He grins at you devilishly and says, "Hey old pal...long time, no see...We are gonna get along great!" Jake suggests that your group go straight down an old path that seems to have been a road at one point. -Do you agree? Or do you have a better idea? You decide.
(Please post your response along with your character sheet- you do not have to include the other stuff! I'll try to be on at least once every day to update! Good luck)

Sarah steps next to you and you head down the path. A building, well what's left of a building, lies about a mile ahead of you. It's hard to see how big it is through all the dust but it seems pretty large. "See it?" Jake asks..."Think we should go explore it? It's up to you."

You are confused by Jax. How does he know you? It might be good to ask- Your group starts walking down the path and you hurry to keep up.

No one but Susan rings a bell but you only remember one memory of her- You dragging her and her beating at you while she screams for you to let go- You feel a claw mark on the side of your neck. It's from her.

-CHARACTER SHEET- Name: Jack "Boone" Stone Age: 19 Bio: Boone always was a little genius in his parent's eyes. When the bombs fell all of his family died, and it was only luck that a neighbor decided to check on the household before he left to a shelter with Boone. Boone has the mind of a detective. He sees everything in unnatural clarity, making quick judgement and going through dozens of choices before making a decision. He hates when people slow him down or annoy him, and likes to do everything quickly, many times annoyed by the slow working minds of most other people. Fear and emotion do not come easily to him, an he very rarely trusts anyone 100%.

I agree with going down the path, and greet the other survivors as they introduce themselves.

His answer is simple. "Explore." You and the others head down the path and Susan avoids eye contact with you. It looks as if she's been crying.

You and the group head down the path in silence. An hour later you still haven't found anything. Do you suggest to keep going, or do you suggest you head back? Or something else?
