Walking Dead Roleplaying Game
So I finished Episode 1 for the 4th time and find myself twiddling my thumbs until the next episode comes out. Then I had a brianstorm! I roleplayed for a while, but life took me away from it. So I thought to myself "Hey, there should be a good Walking Dead rp out there right?" So I went searching...and searching...and searching....
After what seemed hours (actually 10 minutes...I'm impatient...) I found nothing that caught my interest. So I built this and am hoping that there are some like minded people out there wanting more Walking Dead. So while waiting for Telltale, come on over and create your own stories. All are welcome!

EDIT: So the roleplay is set in between S1 Ep1 and Ep2, so every character is still alive (except Doug) and well. Most canon characters are available to play as. Lee and co. are still at the Motor Inn, surviving while Mark is still hiding out at the air force base (possible roleplay chance there). Crawford is still a thriving community with Molly living there. Ben is still with Travis and the rest of the Stone Mountain group. The 400 days characters are kicking about Gil's Reststop And of course the St Johns are still luring people in to eat while dealing with the Save Lots bandits.
So there are many chances to roleplay with or as your favorite characters from the games. Or you can create your own character and create your very own story. How will you survive?

Really nice idea!
There's actually a thread on this forum with a collaborative story. It picks up exactly where Season 1 ended.
Check it out: http://www.telltalegames.com/community/discussion/52763/let039s-play-a-game
Nice idea. But the text against the black background is really disturbing to my eyes.
thanks
Oh! Reading!....
I looked around the site for a while, and it looks pretty professional, I might consider writing a fanfic and posting on there!
EDIT: I just made an account, my name is; TheWalkingDuck . I'm probably going to start a character pretty soon.
yeah...I kind of agree. Still experimenting with color scheme...
EDIT: experimented...more of a light greyish now. Less eye hurty.
I would like to start character, but I don't have very good imagination and my English is bad
That's okay. All you need is passion...cheese alert
You need to make detailed post about how to do forum based role-playing: rules, etiquette, etc. I'm an old hat at table-top role playing but don't really know how it's done on a forum. Also, I'm sure there are people who will want to join who know almost nothing about role-playing at all..
Good point, I'll get on that, To put it in a nutshell, each post is a written short story (two paragraphs) from the point of view of your character. The next player responds to that post and so on and so on. That's the basics and will have a better detailed version on the site asap
Sounds cool I'll drop by.
...sneaky bump
really good idea but i think i've had enough of online roleplaying/efedding/textfedding/picfedding in my days. still a very good idea
Or you can download DayZ or Infestation: Survivor Stories and roleplay inside those games. That's what i've been doing to fill the empty void in my soul as i wait for more TWD
I actually like this. Probably going to write up my own zombapocalypse story soon! Thanks!
Ugh, I hate that style of forum roleplaying. I like it best when it's all in one topic and you can just read it like a story.
look forward to seeing you
thanks. hopefully we'll see you sometime in the future
I'll hold you to that
Fair enough, each to their own. I find that having one topic and so many players can often get confusing though and cause people to quit. This way there are multiple stories (who doesn't want more? :P) and less confusion.
Yeah but...there's no Lee XD
Shameless bump, updated the initial post with more info on the roleplay about playing as canon characters and the time setting.
Roleplay in "State of Decay" that's what I've been playing lately.
Erm, there was already a pretty big Walking Dead RP, I can get you the link. It was advertised alot here on the forum actually and was pretty big. It's still going strong today.
really? link please
me too! finished it though...
Even the Breakdown DLC?
NICE IDEA I LIKE IT
lol i got to the point we're it got too hard and I died...that counts as finishing it right?
Nope :P Well it goes on forever, but the more levels you survive the more unique characters you unlock. So I'd say it's worth it to keep trying.
thanks
This site needs more people...
Can you change the name of thread? People see the thread title and don't know what it's about. I think probably a lot of people who might be interested skip over this thread without reading it because the title isn't descriptive of its contents.
I think he's talking about the one I linked you earlier, not sure though.
You're right, the site needs more attention!
Just made an application for Kenny, I hope we get a Season 1 group up and running! But this seems great, I've applied for Kenny:)
Okay, done...or will be done
Edit: Done
