About Us
Based in Whittenside’s Colglough Building and started by Dr. Albert Schwan in March of 2010, Dr. schwan’s Research and Development Team is a group of devoted scientists and survivors looking to improve the lives of survivors and zombies alike through appropriation of Necrotech science. While Dr. Schwan still searches for a definitive cure for the rot virus and the associated paralytic state associated with the outbreak, the founding philosophy of this group holds that the zombie/survivor dynamic is the fact of life in Malton. To improve this dynamic for the benefit of all concerned, Dr. schwan’s Research and Development Team helps to keep tabs on the state of the rot virus in Whittenside through their updated brainrot Database, and helps to mprove quality of life through the Dr. Schwan’s Essentials, Dr. Schwan's Culinary, and The Doc’s Novelties product lines.
Formation
The Four Horsemen (Self-Titled)
In early March of 2010, Dr. Schwan was putting the finishing touches on his Feral Undead Blend Finishing Salt when a lab accident caused an explosion that rendered him unconscious for the better part of a day. Analyzing his mistake, Schwan found that the chemical imbalance could have been stopped if he had two or three more hands to hold the chemicals. In true Necrotech fashion, he immediately set to work on a serum that would grow an unspecified number of extra arms. This had to be scrapped, however, when lab tests confirmed that the new proprioceptors could not be linked to the central nervous system, causing the arms to behave unpredictably in clinical tests. Pondering on his failure, Dr. Schwan returned to the Colglough Building Lobby where four members of The Chili Corporation appointed themselves his bodyguards: the self styled “Four Horsemen”. Reflecting on recent events, the Dr. decided that, in lieu of extra arms, a little help couldn’t hurt, and Dr. schwan’s Research and Development Team was formed.
The Betrayal?
Shortly after this, one of the horsmen--Valek Darkmist--killed one of Dr. Schwan's research assitants and destroyed a generator in the neighboring hospital. Another member succumbed to the influence of the rot virus and joined the feral undead. A third member, Sedric Dawn, vandalized the building and fled into the night. With three of the founding members pusuing alternate paths and the fourth gone missing, the future of the organization was dubious. Upon reflection, however, Dr. Schwan decided that the die had been cast and the group would stand. Dr. schwan’s Research and Development Team now remains open to all like minded individals interested in bettering our situation through science.
Qualifications
To become a member of this group, survivors must have an interest in science and marketing. Beyond this, there is a code of conduct associated with membership in this organization.
1. Members of this group will not PK survivors unless one of the following previsions be met: (a) in order to defend him or herself or to protect the life of an ally, lethal force is authorized. (b) To protect the cause of scientific advancement, those who would threaten our endeavors through the destruction of generators or other scientific equipment may be dealt with in an extreme manner befitting the gravity of their crime. (c) instructional vivisection: in order to root out the neurological cause of homicidally violent behavior, members of this group are not obligated to but may elect—if their personal research so directs them—to hunt and kill notorious PKers.
2. Members of this group will not kill a zombie without a reason: the virus is the enemy not the zombies themselves therefore the destruction of zombies should be limited to self preservation; protection of survivors, equipment, or facilities; or the furtherance of research. In the latter case, emotional involvement should be avoided.
3. Members of this group will protect and improve scientific facilities, particularly the Colglough Building where possible.
4. In all other areas of survivor interaction, members of the group will remain professional. Remember, the reputation of this establishment and its staff rides with you as you perform your duties.
If you agree to this code of conduct, change your group tag to say “D.S. R&D”, ad your signature to the membership list, copy the code for one of the following flagboxes to your user profile and welcome aboard.
Choosing the Right Tag
All current branches of this group are based in the Colglough Building in Whittenside. All are responsible for its defense and upkeep while in residence.
The Enforcement Dept.
The primary job of the enforcement dept. is the preservation of Colglough and the protection of scientific staff in the field. Enforcement staff are responsible for handling unruly patients and for responding to homicidal visitors. It is expected that enforcement staff will be well armed at all times.

The Marketing Dept.
The primary job of the marketing department is the dissemination of information regarding our group and current releases in the Essentials, Culinary, and Novelty product lines. Marketing members should be familiar with the workings of a radio transmitter and the use of a spraycan and be willing to supply the tinyurls for the product catalogues should the situation warrant. Ideally, members of this department should also speak zamgrh.

Scientific Development Dept.
The scientific development department is charged with researching the rot virus and finding new applications for Necrotech technology. Members of this department may be required to perform revives, brainrot revives, and combat revives in an effort to better understand the virus. This subgroup must also be on the lookout for new product development ideas within the existing product lines. It is expected that members of the scientific development department will be familiar with the use of all Necrotech devices.

The Classification Dept.
The purpose of the classification department is to maintain and update the rotters database. Members of this department must be able to DNA extract zombies and add any individuals with brainrot to the appropriate database for further study. It is helpful if members of this group are registered wiki users but this is not required as members may report findings to director Schwan for upload into the database.

Allies
Current Projects
The Whittenside Rotters Database
Dr. Schwan’s Research and Development Team keeps and updates a list of individuals with brainrot in the Whittenside area. While some have complained that this is nothing more than a way to target and unfairly persecute such individuals, the Dr. is quick to explain that the zombies are not the enemy: The Virus is. The proper use of the rot list is to facilitate field research by allowing Dr. schwan’s Research and Development Team and allied researches the ability to see those individuals who cannot be revivified. Alternately, it serves to track the success of revivification research by allowing a researcher to determine whether such an individual is still holding on to life or has once more embrace the path of Barhah.

Dr. Schwan's Essentials Product Line
Dr. Schwan’s Essentials is a new product line developed by Whittenside’s own Dr. Albert Schwan. The Essentials contains products for dashing danger seekers, radiant ransackers, and scientists in the know. Dr. Schwan is even rumored to be working on practical products for the walking dead. Based in Whittenside’s historic the Colglough Building, Dr. Schwan launched his product line in February 2010 with the release of his patented Zombie Repellent Hair Tonic and followed it up with more product releases throughout the year.
Dr. Schwan's Culinary Product Line
Working off of the success of the Dr. Schwan’s Essentials product line, Albert Schwan found himself late one night in Colglough wondering how to improve the lives of those within the quarantine zone through the use of Necrotech science. While staring at a blank work-pad, The doctor gagged down a pre-packaged lunch from the Necrotech cafeteria deepfreeze to maintain his strength. At that moment, an idea hit him like a lump of scalding hot preheated gravy hitting the bottom of an empty stomach. If a society works on its stomach, there must be a way to improve the quality of post-outbreak life by improving the caliber of the available cuisine…THROUGH SCIENCE!
