Apocalypse Horde Slow Readers Group

The Apocalypse Horde (Slow Reader Group)

In the dark remnants of a bullet-riddled skull, something stirs. A half-recalled fascination with rectangular objects that are filled with an inedible substance that is covered in eerie squiggles.

These things were once important. Why?

Rotwood

With the successful conquest of Roftwood, the undead have found themselves with plenty of time on their hands. Feeding groans are less frequent and loud, there are lots of nice buildings and malls to sleep in and not wake up with a cranial sunroof, and there are pitifully few coherent efforts to retake the suburb.

Some undead mount raids on neighbouring suburbs.

Others shatter barricades in an endless game of ‘hide and seek’ to find those last few refugees lurking in one of eight barricaded buildings like a tasty surprise.

But some have decided to catch up on some reading (or at least oggle the juicy bits in medical journals and autopsy reports).

Why now?

Even with the skill ‘memories of life’, it can take your average zombie several weeks to finish even the most rudimentary tome of kindergarten lore. A bullet in the forehead makes you lose your page, and means you have to start all over again.

This can be very frustrating.

However, with the collapse of Stanbury Village to the west, Tollyton to the south, and Pimbank to the north, the suburb of Rotwood is a headshot-free zone and we can read all the pages of our latest Mister Men book in peace.

Joining

We're still members of 'the Apocalypse Horde', just ones who have a side hobby to the Horde's primary goals. However, 'the Apocalypse Horde Slow Readers Group' is the offical title.

Whether you are a zombie who wants to flaunt your intellectual ways, or a survivor who just supports the cause, you can do so with one of these awesome templates.

Acquiring Books

Libraries are an obvious source, but often in other buildings, one can find large wooden things that are filled with loads of them. Often, it is considerate to lug these grossly inedible items to a library, drop them, and then try to find something with lots of nice pictures and a big typeface to take back to your undead lair to enjoy in peace.

If you find strange metallic discs in your pockets, or on a recent kill, or better yet, lots of very small identical pages torn from some book that has nothing but a series of green guys faces on it surrounded by swirls and pictures of buildings, stuff those in the gap you leave when you grab a book.

Quartly Library

This excellent location is very close to the mall and has a superb section of books including many Mister Men books, and the ever popular ‘the Very Hungry Caterpillar’. For those seeking entertainment, there is the ‘Color Atlas of the Autopsy’ with many mouth-watering images inside.

Members of the Quartly Study Group encountered in this location are sometimes of a disposition to help the undead with the longer and more complicated words, as well as to use ladders to get books off the top shelf for those zombies who have yet to master such complex technological devices.

If lights are on inside, this may mean that librarians are on hand.
