In regards to my characters, I'm trying to experience all aspects of the game, so I've made characters for each of the, what I perceive to be, three distinct approaches to playing the game. Orison is a pro-survivor character who will likely join up with a group at some point and become a career survivor. Jamie is a pro-zombie character who will likely join a group on the opposite side and become a career zombie, [[Brain Rot]] and all. Emma is being played as an [[The Opportunists|opportunist]] type of character character; when she's alive, she supports the survivors, when she's dead, she supports the zombies. Emma will basically be [[feral]], regardless of whether she's alive or dead, wandering from place to place with no primary goal. I'm considering the addition of a fourth player to act as a PKer once I become more adept at understanding how the game plays in regular practice.

Currently, Orison is up in the northwest district, Jamie is in the southeast district, and Emma is slowly migrating towards the southwest district since she started off close to Jamie (she got delayed helping to ransack and ruin Fort Perryn). I intend to have the three of them lead entirely separate lives within the city, though the three of them do share a common back story. Even so, I have little intention of RPing at this time, so while I do have a story for these characters, it generally won't impact the way that they are played in game, aside from what has already been mentioned.
In-game, my characters really have no relation to each other, aside from RP back stories that are tied together. I try to keep them all spread out and make an effort not to favor any one character or play style more than any other. Typically, I have them operate in distant regions so that any information one gathers is of no use to the others. Also, as I said, each of my characters is being played in a different style, so if I patch you up with my survivor and then a few days later show up with my zombie, I'm not there to play nice, I'm there to eat your brains.


While Orison and Emma are both already grouped up, if there are any pro-zombie groups in the southwest that could use a low-level zombie, feel free to contact me regarding Jamie. In previous MMOs I've played, I've been rather picky about the groups that I join, but given the low level of my characters, my inexperience in the game, and the fact that there are only so many options available, I'll probably be far more willing to listen to recruiters than I might have been otherwise.
While I established RP back stories for my characters, I do not actually RP much at all. On very rare occasion, I'll go in-character and waste a few AP speaking as they would, but in general, if you see my characters speaking in the game it can probably be considered out of character. I'm too practical and AP is too precious for me to spend it talking in-character all the time.


==Current Goals==
==A Quick Aside Regarding Impersonators==
All three of them are actively working on leveling up. Orison will probably be acting as a medic/reviver in and around [[Darvall Heights]] at some point soon, since there seems to be some active conflict occurring there right now, but before he does that, he'll probably stock up on a few more useful items that he's still missing. Emma and Jamie, meanwhile, are mostly just going from place to place to look for a meal, since they both seem to be zombified most of the time. Emma is leveling nicely, while Jamie seems to have become the punching bag for whichever suburb she's in at the moment (18 deaths pre-Lvl3, compared to Emma's 7 pre-Lvl5 deaths).

About the way I play

I'm trying to experience all aspects of the game, so I've made characters for most of the major, distinct approaches to playing the game. Orison is a career survivor character who has joined up with a group and will do everything he can to restore the suburbs and keep them safe. Jamie is a career zombie character who has joined up with a group and will do everything she can to ruin suburbs and kill everything. Doug is a career PKer who is busily racking up the kills, though he will never compare to some of the more prolific killers in the city. And Emma is my free-for-all character, who started out as an Opportunist, but these days mostly just gets used for odds and ends, like testing userscripts, joining a Bash, or else for some one-off PKing events.

In-game, my characters really have no relation to each other, aside from RP back stories that are tied together. I try to keep them all spread out and make an effort not to favor any one character or play style more than any other. Typically, I have them operate in distant regions so that any information one gathers is of no use to the others. Also, as I said, each of my characters is being played in a different style, so if I patch you up with my survivor and then a few days later show up with my zombie, I'm not there to play nice, I'm there to eat your brains.

While I established RP back stories for my characters, I do not actually RP much at all. On very rare occasion, I'll go in-character and waste a few AP speaking as they would, but in general, if you see my characters speaking in the game it can probably be considered out of character. I'm too practical and AP is too precious for me to spend it talking in-character all the time.

A Quick Aside Regarding Impersonators

Aichon zerg.png Aichon is the screenname that I personally go by when I'm representing me, myself in the community, hence why I use it on the wiki and the broader community I participate in. I do not have a character named Aichon in the game (the full list of my characters is above, as it has been for years), nor did I suddenly decide to create one after six years of playing the game. So, it surprised me quite a bit when I stumbled on "Aichon" in early 2016, right around the time that a known zerger became active again. A few years later—March 2018—it was brought to my attention that "Aichon" had returned, and then a month later it was reported that Orison FIynt (note the uppercase i) was in the same vicinity. Who knows what others there are?

Anyway, I haven't played the game since early 2017, so feel free to kill characters bearing names associated with me. That goes for my legitimate accounts too, given that I'm not playing them. Barring an indication to the contrary on the wiki, you can assume that the only reason they'd be active is if someone got lucky with my randomly-generated passwords and stole the accounts.
