I also like the idea of a more realistic style of gameplay in Bethesda games, West. Unless you're wearing Power Armor, or some other strong armor, being shot in the head should be an insta-kill, or at least take out way more HP.

Inferi,
Oh, there are no limitations to supernatural abilities in Extermination, however, it should not be overpowered, and should somewhat fit the theme of the RP. Something like mutations in X-Men or Resident Evil/Silent Hill or magic in Mass Effect or Skyrim should be OK. Basically, so long as your power cannot decimate entire groups of enemies instantly and easily, whatever imagination you have, should be OK.

Anyways, I will attempt to explore a few more franchises today to add to Extermination, if possible.

West, about SukaSuka (fyi, "suka" means "bitch" in Polish and Russian and other Slavic languages)
That's a curious ability for sure, I never would have thought of that. However, it also means you have more work to do, as you'll need to describe everything, but it is your choice on how much you wish to have. Your power seems to be metamorphoses of oneself and others, and as for zombie conversion, it should be OK so long as it only affects no more than several at a time.
Hm, a shapeshifting priest, you don't get those very often.
Ha! Good point! The reason is that there is a large minority of religious people who are just plain bad people.

... I should probably use this spark of brainpower to figure out some posts, huh?

Pff, like any of us ever do that. Hm, y'know, no one really needs a special moment or special feeling to write. I never relied on sparks or inspirations, I just go for it. That is, if I am sleepy, sick, and/or hungry, I just can't type much.

OK, I made a slight update to Extermination, mentioning that it is similar to Left 4 Dead, Resident Evil, S.T.A.L.K.E.R., Metro 2033, Killing Floor, X-Men, Silent Hill, Fallout, Shadow Man, Afterfall, Dead Island, F.E.A.R., that sort of thing. I should have mentioned this sooner, but didn't bother, thinking that everyone would "already get it" so I've made the RP a bit more specific.

Since we are dealing with typical zombies, as well as mutants, viral metamorphoses, the supernatural, and even hell, I think the role-play is still quite versatile and open-ended. I have also created a few more reserved posts just in case I need more room. When I say "opened-ended", I really mean it. You don't have to be a protagonist or a "good guy", you can be a villain, an opposing force, you can even be Alma for all I care.

If anyone's interested in RPing as a villainous character with extremely evil powers, just note you still can't just kill-off bio characters, but you may be able to kill-off many NPCs if you choose.

Are you saying good guys with good powers can't be villainous? :P

I will point out all wrongs, Inferi. It is my mission.

Anyway, I don't know if literally anyone remembers, but I have a creative writing assignment to write 10-15 pages of short story, a collection of poems, etc. for one of my classes. That is now officially due tomorrow instead of months ahead of now. Good news though, I'm feeling pretty proud of what I've got so far (it's an idea for a novel that I've had for a while that I'm trying to trim down into short story format. It was hard to pick and choose how much to put into the final draft but I think it's going well).
I just play FFXIV at this point. DC: Crystal

Made some updates to Extermination. There are now a few more pictures, and different kinds of zombies but they are all part of the same faction, whereas each type of monster is its own faction, as the monsters have different origins to zombies. This should also make things more interesting and wild.

Maddy,
I wish you the best in your literary assignment. I don't know how to help, as I've always been a bad student, but if you ever make your ideas into a novel, that sounds awesome. In YouTube, check out users like Jenna Moreci for additional tips and information about novel-making.

The only mod I REALLY want is the "make your own difficulty" mod (with 5x incoming damage, 5x outgoing damage). Bethesda doesn't seem to understand that by upping the difficulty, I still expect enemies to die when I shoot them in the head with an appropriate calibre gun. Fighting health sponges IS NOT FUN.

You could try FROST. Not sure if it's been released on console mods yet but it's a really hardcore survival-esque mod. Ammo is really scarce, hardly any friendly locations. Radiation is also a big threat as opposed to being a minor inconvenience in vanilla FO4. Carry weight reduced and hardly any stimpaks. I've been watching an LP of it on Youtube and it's pretty savage.
