<span class="stealthexternallink">[http://www.urbandead.com/profile.cgi?id=1554619 Gyles Zednik]</span> is my vengeful, pro-zombie character.  He has stumbled around Malton living the good life of a feral, but has spontaneously worn the tags of a number of zombie groups including the [[Feral Undead|Ferals]] and [[St. Ferreol's Hospital Noise Abatement Society|St. Ferreol's]].  He generally abides by a variant of the [[Salt The Land Policy]], whereby he attempts to end every turn inside a ruined TRC.<br>

__TOC__
==Character History==
It was late in 2007 when Giles Sednik first arrived in Malton, having been spawned in the suburb of Molebank probably around the Barstow Building.  As a civilian with the shopping skill he lacked any real ability to defend himself or provide for his own shelter.
Wandering the streets, he came upon an abandoned firestation that was a few blocks away from any zombies.  Content with his careful selection, he was able to shut the doors before falling asleep.
In the morning he found that another survivor had tried to murder him with an axe (and failed).
After considering the state of the suburb map and investigating the layout of various resource buildings, Giles decided to make the trek to Foulkes Village.  Along the way he found shelter in a building guarded by the Pheonix Security Services.  After arriving in Foulkes Village, and finding Cyril Hospital was not over-barricaded he recieved a kind word from a player named Taxidermist, of the group CAPD.  Based on this, and after considering the code of ethics they represented on their wiki, Giles joined CAPD.
Since then he has been an active recruiter of CAPD and has risen to the rank of Senior Officer, wielding the super-colossal power of admin.  He also became involved in the SWA and in it's heyday, beerhah.  During the rampage of the dead he became more interested in metagaming and building alliances among various survivor groups.  Heading north in an attempt to get behind the the mega-horde he met many friendly survivor groups of all different persuasions.  It was during this time, while hiding in Mack Auto Repair in Grigg Heights, that his character first died.  Initially Giles was playing with his own RP paramaters and considered this to be the end of the game for him.  However, after 2 weeks he began to miss urbad dead and so he stood up and got a revive.
Since then he's managed to die about a dozen more times, but has committed himself to the pro-survivor cause and to bringing about a greater sense of unity among survivors in general.
==Wiki Involvement==
I've contributed little to the wiki.  I've written a couple of articles.
* One on [[C.R.A.P.|C.R.A.P. tactics]]
* And a user guide to [[Civility]]
Lately I've been making my own templates and working on this user page.  Some of them appear to the right over there >>>
 
==Friends==
Firstly, I'm a member of [[CAPD]]
So I count all of CAPD as my friends, and their traditional allies in The Legion of the Octopope.  Additionally I am a member of a variety of message boards, including Tikhon Medical, TMS, ROAR, and others.  10mfh used to have some awesome boards and they were a fun group but I lost my registration info over there a while back.  Some of the other groups I've enjoyed working with include, past and present, include M(A)F, Those Dudes, the SWA, Brotherhood of Steel, Josephine Generals, and the Bartenders of New Arkham.


==Enemies==
I don't really consider anyone to be my enemy.  Survivors need danger or the game gets really, really boring.  Although zergers in general are just lame, regardless of their motives or what "side" they're on.  I'll usually make it a point to kill one of their alts, or to grief them in some manner.
==Current Goals==
*To strengthen the SWA by creating greater unity among it's member groups and by bringing more groups into the mix.
*To recruit survivors to CAPD by being helpful and friendly in-game, and to keep the current roster engaged and interested so that we can grow our numbers into the 40s.
*To figure out how to make decent tables and wiki stuff.

Characters

Giles Sednik

A cop with a large package

This is my friendly, pro-survivor character, and the account with which I joined the game after watching "I Am Legend" and feeling the need for a quick zombie fix. After messing around with the profile description for a couple of years, I finally settled on the following:
"He has a cop-style mustache and a hairy chest. Unfortunately you don't notice either, since you find it impossible to take your eyes off his package."
He eats donuts and shits bullets, while aspiring to embody civility and 70s sleaze. Though he's been known to have the occasional drunken binge around the holidays, for the most part I don't role-play the character with any unusual traits.

  • Arrived in Malton in late 2007, in the suburb of Molebank
  • Survived an attempted PKing his first night in the city
  • Moved to Foulkes Village
  • Joined CAPD
  • Died for the first time on March 15th, 2008 in Mack Auto Repair in Grigg Heights
  • Promoted to Senior Officer sometime in Dec 2008?
  • Became Captain of CAPD on Jan 23, 2010, as part of the new rotating leadership.
  • Will never purchased ransack.

Gyles Zednik

Gyleszednik.png

Gyles Zednik is my vengeful, pro-zombie character. He has stumbled around Malton living the good life of a feral, but has spontaneously worn the tags of a number of zombie groups including the Ferals and St. Ferreol's. He generally abides by a variant of the Salt The Land Policy, whereby he attempts to end every turn inside a ruined TRC.
Gyles is currently a member of the Hildebrand Horde, a zombie group that formed spontaneously in game, with no communication other than death rattle.
When revived, he'll take the opportunity to reload on ammo and shoot the nearest survivor who hasn't purchased ankle grab. After that, he will stay in the area and smash generators until someone decides to take him out.
Zednik also keeps an organized screenshot catalog of all players who have ever combat revived him. These players are marked purple in his contact list, for expedited extermination (the in-game justification is that he uses tattoos to remember revivers). It's surprising how often random shambling will bring Gyles into contact with someone who revived him months ago in a different part of the city.
Some notes of interest:

  • Created 2009-06-11, after a comment on developing suggestions made me realize the hypocrisy of neglecting half of the game.
  • Doesn't have Brain Rot, Flesh Rot or Crotch Rot.
  • Gyles Zednik has no relation to Giles Sednik, despite the obvious similarity in names.
  • Will never purchase construction.

Wiki

I've become steadily more involved in the wiki. Here are some of the things I'm most proud of.

  • Authored some articles: civility, C.R.A.P., S W A Stuff,
  • Wrote a number of histories for location pages. Some of my favorites are: a Junkyard, a Wasteland, a monument, and Nickells Grove
  • I'm still working on finishing all of Foulkes Village. Much thanks to Mallrat for his wonderfully descriptive and imaginative fictions.
  • Unmerged over 80% of Stanbury Village and over 50% of Dunnell Hills. Stanbury will always hold a special place in my heart now :)
  • Sorted and re-categorized thousands of location images into specific categories, now viewable here. My thanks to everyone in the wiki who jumped on board to help with the very tedious work of essentially "unmerging" the sorted images by removing the general category tag.
  • Proposed a couple of policies with the help of community discussion, that ultimately passed and resulted in the creation of De-Escalations. My thanks to everyone's constructive input.

I also check in just about every day to see if anything interesting is going on. I'll usually read the drama centers and weigh-in wherever a vote is required.
