Life in Malton is a group bent less on in game mechanics, statistics and tactics, and more on ongoing forum-based role play. It has no official leader and does not require that group-members place anything in their group name, or even that all members be in the same place inside the game at the same time. All that the group requires is that its members be reasonably apt with writing and story-telling skills, and either that they know how to or are willing to learn how to role play in a free-form, etiquette-based manner.
About
It's been two years since the quarantine trapped residents of Malton into their current lives, and while life is hell, it's begun to settle into a cold and difficult routine. People go mad in their solitude, as they cycle between life and unlife and lose more of their humanity with every death and every needle. There are those who band together for protection, or under the orders of outsiders, or for simple warmth, and there are those who work hard to keep the spark of community alive in the splinters of this city.
Currently entering into deep winter (or the beginning of the new year, if those who still follow calenders are to be believed) things are beginning to get really difficult. Malnutrition and sickness are beginning to take their toll, and of course there are always zombies to avoid. More then ever, people who huddle over fires or snatch brief moments of heat from powered buildings need to talk, and they have many stories to tell.
Fights are fought, friendships are forged, and life in Malton goes on.
To Join
At the moment, one may apply for membership (and further information) by dropping a note in the 'discussion' section of this page. Yes, there is a forum on which this group bases its roleplay, but you'll be required to submit a character-sheet for review or an example of your writing skills before you'll be allowed to join. This may change when plans for this group become more concrete, but for now, this is the way it goes.
Current Events
Life in Malton is currently working on adding flavor text to the building and street descriptions in the Urban Dead Wiki in the Wyke Hills, West Grayside, East Grayside and Hollomstown regions to enhance the In Character aspects of the game.
If you'd care to add any information, please feel free to do so.
Some recent examples can be found at the below descriptions:

Past Roleplay Logs
