You know that breakout plot that we are doing soonish? Let's have a little side dish that goes with it!
Shiba, this lunatic over here, is likely to go on a killing spree during the event, and no, the infected ones are not the only ones he will be killing. The infected ones are the ones whom he will be killing openly. The others, he will kill with a quick slit of the throat from behind so that they wouldn't know who it was, after which the corpses get arranged artistically and displayed out in the open.
But here's the catch: Shiba has the ability to turn those he kill into zombies. Not that he actually gets to decide who gets turned and who does not. If his victim has a strong enough will to
live for whatsoever reason, they come back alive within the next 24 hours, as long as the corpse was not burned to ashes. Those who return will seem completely normal, retain all their memories (except that of being killed) and their personalities... until they get hungry, that is. Everything other than human flesh loses its flavor to them, and they will just want to
eat.
Basically the sequence of events will go like this:
1. Shiba kills you.
2. Your corpse gets turned into an art exhibition.
3. Your corpse is found (and maybe buried).
4. You wake up anytime within 24 hours (or crawl out from six feet under) wondering what the hell is wrong.
5. Your character wonders why everything starts to taste bland to them.
6. WITHIN THE NEXT 24 HOURS when they get a taste of human flesh/blood, or simply get hungry enough, they go on a man-eating rampage.
7. They get killed again.
8. They revive and suffer the death penalties as per usual.
If you are one of those infected with Solanum:
1. You get infected.
2. Shiba kills you.
3. Repeat steps 4-8 of the above.
So if you are infected and get killed by Shiba, your death penalty gets delayed to when you get killed the second time to 'reset' to non-zombie status.
Here's the question, who wants to get killed by our friendly neighbourhood psycho, and how do you want your bodies desecrated? According to the mods, I have until Jan 6 to gather my victims.
Those who want to kill off these non-Solanum zombies are free to volunteer here too.
