This RPG will come with very challenging obstacles, given the name Hardcore. You will face dangerous zombies, and friendly OR hostile survivors. You must be careful in this world, because if you become infected, there is little hope for you.

*Friendly/Hostile affects whether or not other survivors will assist you, or decide to attack you, or rob you depending on the choices you have made in your journey.
* Strength affects how much damage you deal in close combat, and how much you can carry in your inventory.
*Marksmanship determines how accurate you are with your gun.
*Agility determines how fast you are to dodge enemy attacks in close range or long range and affects how long your survivor can fight without being exhausted.
*Endurance determines how long you can travel in one day before you become tired and sleep.
*Vitality determines how much HP your survivor may have. (Each time leveled up, raises HP by 15 pts.)
* Intellect determines how well you can hack into a computers recent logs, and how well you can hack into a security building. (Security buildings will most likely have ammo, weapons, food, water, and a place to rest, but it won't last forever, so don't plan on staying long)
*Luck affects your chances of CRITICAL hits, and (luckily) DODGING attacks, and if you get a (lucky) Escape.
*You must EAT, DRINK, and SLEEP in Hardcore Survival, so make the most of your rations, and decide whether you want to survive and travel alone, or if you want to gang up with other survivors you meet along the way.
CHOOSE YOUR ATTRIBUTES You may have 10 pts. to put into your skills, so choose wisely. All skills start out with 3 pts.
LISTEN CAREFULLY: Everyone will have a COMPLETELY different story line, each with different encounters, and a story that has happened to your survivor in the past. ALWAYS try to find a safe house to stay and rest or sleep in, and if you want to stay COMPLETELY safe, barricade the doors with anything you can find. Good luck, I can't wait to see what actions you decide to make along the way.
You enter through the front door. No zombies seem to be around here... yet.
"Good, no zombies. Maybe we can get in and out quick without more close calls, RIGHT?!"Kelsey says, scolding you and John as she walks off and enters a room to your right.
"Don't worry about her. Shes a cry baby." Says John, loudly so Kelsey can hear. "Shut up John!" Kelsey whispers. "You might wake up some walking puke bags!" _____________________________________________________________________ Name: Perry Status: INFECTED 86/205 Inventory:{Duffle bag:canned beans,2 water bottles/Crowbar} Friendly/Hostile: 0 Strength: 5 Marksmanship: 3 Agility: 3 Endurance: 5 Vitality: 7 Intellect: 5 Luck: 3 Hunger: OKAY Thirst: OKAY Sleep: OKAY

You enter, and tell them about the problem. "No. Get out. We don't trust infected people. You will turn into one of them... things." Says a female Raider.
Made a few changes to the sheet because its basically just wasted space.

Dale HP[65/65]: Large Pocket Knife Caitlin HP[80/80]: Screwdriver
Dale charges alongside you, yelling,"AAAHHHHHHHHH!" with you. Caitlin stays outside, making sure your new 'friends' do not flank you. You hear a bullet shot, but it misses you. Your adrenaline has kicked in by now, and you smash at the Female Raiders head, causing a concussion. She falls to the floor, not moving. After you look to your right, you see two Male Raiders, aiming straight at your head.

Dale HP[65/65]: Large Pocket Knife Caitlin HP[80/80]: Screwdriver
You dash behind the counter as the lay waste to anything that was behind you. You look behind, but you don't see Dale. They have stopped firing at you for the moment. You stand up, and swing your crowbar. You hit the male raider to the right of the counter on his left side of his head. He falls, but you don;t know if he is dead, or just unconscious. At a closer observation, you notice the male raiders have M16's. The male raider is reloaded, and has the barrel of his gun touching your cheek. Your very life hangs in the balance. What will you do?

Dale HP[65/65]: Large Pocket Knife Caitlin HP[80/80]: Screwdriver
You hit the barrel of the gun with the curve of the crowbar, knocking his M16 out of reach. He quickly jabs you in your jaw with his fist before you can swing again and you fall to the floor. You collect yourself from the punishing blow he gave you, stand up, and swing your crowbar as hard as you can, with all of your anger. You decapitate the male raider, as his body falls, and his head rolls onto the counter, face down. You stand over the raiders with satisfaction. You look behind you. Nothing is there. You can see the female raiders head and part of her torso, but the rest is behind a corner. You walk towards the knocked out woman, and turn the corner. You see Dale, on the ground, stabbing a body repeatedly with his large pocket knife. Caitlin is on the floor, with blood coming from her mouth. Was she... bitten? Shot? Why is Dale stabbing a body... what is he stabbing in that matter?
