Backstory: Derek was a student at the time of the outbreak, though only meagerly academic. His true talent, however, shone through during the time he spent in physical education and extra-curricular activities, in which Derek demonstrated superb feats of athleticism and sportsmanship. Nevertheless, of any game he took part in, nothing could match his passion for his ultimately favourite sport - baseball. Every evening, Derek would make sure he'd spend his time on the diamond, and whether he sucked or exceeded in his practice sessions, he'd keep at it.

Perhaps he would have made it as a renown baseball professional one day. Unfortunately, that chance was whisked away when the dead started getting back up and eating people. His family and friends didn't even make it past day one. Derek abandoned his home and ran.

Hopping from place to place, Derek continues to survive through his sheer will and acquired endurance, and of course, his lucky baseball bat.

Personality: When it comes to zombies, Derek dons his game face. As far as he's concerned, they're nothing more than points to score in a game. Outside of battering things, however, he's just a regular dude - one with hopes, dreams and fears. His years spent as team captain influences his powers of persuasion, which he will indeed utilize should he find himself on the wrong end of a gun barrel. As far as alignment goes, Derek tends to be a lawful good, most likely due to his history spent learning and playing by the rules.

Skills: Apart from simply being in good shape, Derek's swing makes heads turn - literally.

Hey, so I had a couple ideas for events that could go down in the future aside from the whole 'hunt down the dudes who cause shenanigans around the local area that attacked Derek' thing.

• Scavengers hit the bar, and are either dumb and try rushing, or play it smart and try luring over walkers / start a siege.

• A survivor, claiming to be friendly shows up. There's obviously something suspicious about the dude, but there's no real evidence to prove it.

• One of the OCs get kidnapped and the other tracks them down.

• Turns out there's another fort in the area, relatively close by, and they don't like competition for resources.

Though it depends whether you wanted the focus to be on romance or would favor a split between romance and action. I came up with these ideas with the latter in mind, getting a sort of teamwork thing going between Leo and Derek, but if you wanted a more chill 'boy and girl cooped up in a bar together' type plot going then that's cool too. Lemme know what you think Bonnie571

i like the idea of one of them getting kidnapped aswell as the idea of the first two. Maybe a combination could work?
A survior comes into the bar, he's part of the group that are trying to overrun the bar. He kidnaps one of the OC's before the raid goes down. After the oc that's remaining after the raid, they can hunt down the group to help the other.

i would like to split the romance equally with the action. Kind of focus on building up a base romance at first, you know, get them to the point they very clearly want something but then the action goes down. Mix it up
