(A random RP appears out of nowhere!
Topaz made me do it <.<)

Balen was once a grand city, full of life. Now, the only life are those of monsters and a few survivors. After being hit with a flare bomb* 10 years ago, some of Balen's remaining citizens have inherited some... Unique powers. Will the monsters rule the city, or will civilization reclaim what was lost?
*Flare bombs are bombs that contain typical fantasy elements. Such as water, fire, earth, wind, etc.

Balen consists of 3 districts, Top district, Middle district and Lower district. Some areas in these districts aren't swarming with monsters, and are known as sub-safe zones (SSZ), safe zones (SZ) and untouched zones (UZ). Anywhere else is considered a high risk zone (HRZ) and should be avoided. OCs can start in SZ, UZ or SSZ zones, which one is your choice. However, OCs cannot start in HRZ zones, or undiscovered/unknown zones.
Areas known in Top District:
Main Street (SSZ)
Chapel (SZ) *This appears to not load for me, please tell me if it loads properly.
Survivor's Shelter (SZ/UZ) (Has large stone walls surrounding it with a large metal gate next to the garage)

Acolir and Puno (Acolir is the skeletal warrior, Puno is the large monster. No known weaknesses, deals huge amounts of damage)

(OK that's my chars copied now to try and NOT get them mixed up)

Calvin Zaborsky drew the curtain back, looking through the spaces in the nailed wood and down at the road. From what he could see, things looked clear, other than the mangled Zombie and Crof corpses which had been there for the past few weeks. Sighing softly, he closed the curtain and turned away, glancing toward his dwindling food and water supply. Today would be a good time to go for a supply run, even if it's for a few scraps.

Picking his machete up from a rack attached to the wall, he swiftly slid it into the sheath which was strapped to the left side of his waist. He then left the room and entered a dark hallway, merely illuminated by the last rays the sun would provide for today - squirming through thin spaces in the curtains. The hallway was filled with dozens of other doors, just like the one he had come out of, except most of them had assorted heavy furniture pressed against them, reinforced in-case anything decided to come through. In the far left corner of the hallway was a short staircase, which he approached and jogged down softly, entering a small reception room which had been deprived of nearly all furniture.

Calvin then approached double doors, parallel from the reception desk, pushing away a medium sized cupboard before releasing several locks. He then opened the doors slightly, peeking out to double check the coast was clear before fully opening them, slipping out into the chilly air. Drawing his machete in his right hand, he began to jog down the road.

Kegyr stood on top of a tall building within The Shelter, stretching out his metallic wings as he prepared to go off on another search.

He had already found 7 people this week, 2 of which were alive and now under the protection of the thick walls surrounding the safe haven he called home. He hoped that he would find more people, and even more supplies.

Kegyr stood at the edge of what remained of the old roof and jumped off. He glided for a few moments before moving his wings in the regular flapping motion. He slowly increased the speed he was flying at as he headed towards the gates that divided the Middle District from the Top District.

((@JustTopaz waiting for you.))

(gomen! gomen!)

Ace walked round Middle District, looking for anything that could be of use in this ruined world. His foot kicked something laying on the ground. Picking it up to find it was a lighter. He stuffed it in his pocket and continued walking.

The road contained the familiar smell of blood, the vines which were entwined around the buildings hardly visible due to the fog which lingered in the streets. He turned a corner, entering a small laneway which seperated a variety of shops, most of them crumbled to the ground or boarded up. Calvin had raided one of the shops a week ago, gaining a stale piece of bread and a few bottles of water, which proved to be extremely helpful, as he was able to fill them up using his weak water magic.

He left the alleyway and came to a broader street, most of the buildings here being houses. He slowed his pace and approached one of the houses, choosing one at random to explore. He opened the door slowly, stepping into the room and closing it behind him. Calvin then moved toward a nearby kitchen, which looked seemingly empty, the paint peeling off the dozens of cupboards which lined the walls. About to open one of the cupboard, he heard a loud groan emenating from upstairs, followed by the sound of thudding footsteps. He sucked in his breath and began to slowly edge away, slowly and quietly approaching the door - until he bumped into a pan which had been left on the ground, tripping over and making a loud thud.

The groaning got louder and the footsteps began to get faster - the creature upstairs beginning to howl strangely, calling to it's comrades. Calvin quickly scrambled to his feet, scrapping the idea of being stealthy as he lunged toward the door, flinging it open to reveal two alpha zombies - both of them shuffling toward him, drool dripping from their twisted and bloody mouths. Heart beating, he quickly ran past them, slicing his machete through the abdomen of one. The creature from the top floor of the house he'd just left smashed through one of the windows, landing directly in front of him - a crof.

Kegyr arrived at the gates, swiftly flying down the massive set of stairs that citizens used to use to travel between districs? There was going to a renovation on the stairs, turning some into a road, and the rest, covered escalators.

He shifted his wings and shot up into the air, stopping at a certain altitude and then slowly flew towards the ground.

Ace turned a corner to see someone being attacked by a crof. He grabbed his gun with his right hand, hopping he wouldn't need it but read anyway. He shot five spikes of ice from his left hand at the monster.

Kegyr had walked around, searching to see if there was anyone around. He kept his wings prepared, in case he needed to fly at any moment.

Calvin released his breath as the Crof slumped to the ground, gaping holes filled with ice embedded into it's chest. He looked past the beast, to see a strange looking person, which looked to be rather young - gun held in one hand. Scrambling to his feet, he turned around to the sound of moans, slicing off one of the zombie's heads, before slicing away at it's torso, blood spattering everywhere. He then looked down at the road he came, obscured by thick fog which four alpha zombies broke through.

Calvin looked back at the boy, then at the slowly shuffling zombies, before running toward him, "No point fighting. We need to get out of here." He said, passing her as he ran through a thin alleyway.

(Ano. Ace's Elven features(his elf ears) aren't really visible. the first thing you'd notice about him are his cat ears. )
(Wow Wait what girl?)

(For some reason, I always mistaken your characters for girls. Most probably has something to do with the fact that, uh, you're a girl. I'll edit my post. >.<)

(All hail the beautiful one liners!)
Ace followed the man into the small alleyway.

Calvin Klein licked his lips.
