Epidemic

Website: http://epidemicrp.net/

An adaptive continuation of Epidemic, established originally by the Necropolis community. Credits to them where due.


Players are invited to become "survivors" of the infection which turned New York City into what we have come to now adapt to; those who were lucky enough to remain untouched by the virus. The infected are real and pose a genuine threat to players, so survival relies as much on finding players as does the roleplaying elements of the community. Your own survivor can be anything, from an abandoned child to an ex-cop, as long as they're prepared to face the dangers of what this new existence has to offer. There is also a plethora of other factions to choose from, ranging from the American Military to your typical, Fallout-styled raiders. Players can also play as the infected in the city, and pose an interesting threat to those who have thus far avoided the virus.

Our "zombies" are not the living dead so much as they are humans stripped of all emotion but rage and madness - taking a cue from sources like 28 Days/Weeks Later or even Left 4 Dead, the infected of are still "alive", but the infection has stripped them of anything but aggression and hate for anything which still thinks for itself - they mindlessly chase prey, or fight amongst themselves, but a bullet will stop them just as surely as it would stop any other man. Some strains of the virus cause mutation beyond the normal - pre-existing medical conditions or drugs are adapted by the infection, and from this the more unique classes of infected can be found; we have in-game equivalents to the "special infected" of Left 4 Dead, as well as the facilities through which players can apply to play their own unique monsters.
