Feeding The Undead is always recruiting! If you wish to play, simply follow the Charactor creation rules below, or choose the generated character sheet's in the post below, and make up your history!

This is the information I will need from you. I left out a lot of the explanations on calculations, such as how you determine exactly what your rolls are and whatnot, because it makes this simpler on you guys. This is all that I need from you.

In AFMBE, there are 3 character types to choose from. Survivors, Inspired, and Norms. I chose to use Norms for this game. Basically..your every day people. This is to enhance the horror of the game, and to increase the futility . Lets face it. Most of us are Norms in real life.

Abilities, skills, ect, are purchased with points. Every character gets a certain allotment of points, which cant be exceeded.
14 Attribute Points
30 Points for Skills

Attributes Strength
Dexterity
Constitution
Intelligence
Perception (how alert you are)
Willpower

Secondary Attributes Using calculations form your attributes, you come up with secondary attributes. These are Life Points, Endurance Points, and Speed.

Life Points- (([Strength + Con] x 4)+10)
So if you have a 3 strength and a 2 con- (([3+2]x4)+10)=30 LP

Endurance Points- (([Strength + Con + Will] x3)+5)

Speed - [Con + Dex] x2 = Miles per hour you can run. Half of your MPH is the number of yards you can run in a second.


Scores in AFMBE are basically 1-5 for humans. A 1 simply means your below average. 2 is average. 3 is a little better then the average person. 4 is..say Star Athlete, or one of the really good artists in high school. 5 is Olympic sprinter, or genius. This goes for your Attributes and your skills. 2-3 means general competency. You can perform these skills basics with ease. 4-5 are extreme mastery. The result of a lot of practice or study.



Skill Options These are basically what they sound like. Some, like dodge, running, and whatnot, figure in additionally to your attributes. So a 1 doesn’t actually mean your bad at it. It means you’ve put some time into it(dodge by playing football or something, Running by going running once in a while). To not put any numbers in a skill means I just take what you would naturally be able to do, which is dictated by your attribute scores. Acrobatics

T is a professional stunt man and special effects guy. He has worked on several commercials, but never quite made it to Hollywood. T's parents immigrated to America from South Africa in the 70's, and T was born only a short time later. He has a slight South African accent, and has picked up some Afrikaans from his parents, but has adapted to America rather well. As time went by, T realized that with new technology and his ever aging body, his skills were losing their selling power.

T dreams of being a big time actor - perhaps the next Mythbuster. He refused to see the new Star Wars trilogy, and is loathe to see computer generated effects. He obsessively spreads bad reviews about movies and TV shows with excess computer effects, and dreams of starting his own stunt and special effects company - one that doesn't take the easy, digital way out.

Name: Roger Reynolds
Gender: male
Age: 21
Height: 5'3"
Weight: skinny
Hair: ginger
Eyes: brown
Skin: Caucasian

Description: Sort of a nerd/punk combo motif; hoop earring in left ear, hair is kind of messed-up "faux-hawk" style; large-rim Buddy-Holly looking glasses, complete with the obligatory white tape between the frames; gamer t-shirt with some pithy game slogan on it, black zipper hoody, jeans, combat boots, bright green backpack with possessions in it; jeans and hoody have a few random Gothy-type chains hanging from them.

Background: Roger was always a typical nerd all the way though school. He was the quintessential chess club, computer club, and science club kid. Being the frequent target of the jocks and bullies, Roger became introverted and somewhat antisocial. He embraced online gaming when it came out because he could be anyone he wanted to be and actually make some friends, even if they weren't exactly up close and personal.
He also has a passion for horror movies, especially zombie flicks, and has just about every cheesy and not-so-cheesy bloody, gory, zombie-horror killfest movie ever made in his collection; it's kind of his pride and joy. He's majoring in Computer Science with a minor in Filmmaking. Roger is in Herkimer for a big sci-fi/horror/gaming convention and is looking forward to a weekend of getting his nerd on with a vengeance!
