Ok after being involved in a few complex RPGs I have a craving for sheer violence with a basic plot as full of holes as the average action movie. So Here it is

Setting: Present Day
Situation: There was a leak in a science facility a few weeks ago and since then there has been a larg numbe of zombies attacking people, combined with this there is no longer any form of government or police force, the military have started fending for themselves and people have been forced to hide in their homes or other available buildings.
To add to the problem there are also criminal gangs running rampant through the country, it is indeed a situation of pure chaos.

Introduce your character and I will get the ball rolling.

Bakilas
========
Bakilas is an ex-cop who was thrown out of the force and into prison when he was caught selling military weapons to criminal organizations. When the world went mad he managed to break out of the prison and has been trying to survive since then.

Yes! Let's get it on!

Bill
... . . . ...
An anarchist, militiaman and general human failure, Bill is an army nut who has been predicting the end of the world for the last 15 years. To this end, he has stashed every single piece of ammunition and weapon in the basement of his cabin just outside the city. Unfortunately, when the events broke out he was inside the city and with only a small portion of the arsenal he has in the basement - a pump action police shotgun, a Magnum revolver, a sawed off double-barreled shotgun, a military knife and enough ammunition to supply a squadron of men. Quite nuts and violent, never thinks before shooting things. Nor after.

John "the gun"

His real name isn't John, but all of his friends call him that (although he does not have many friends). "the gun" was just added to his name because he could never be seen without a gun. His real name is Steven Stashan. Under the name of Steven Stashan he was one of the best professional assassins available on the market, but then the FBI somehow found out about him and he had to change his identity. So now he was John "the gun". His hair and his face had changed, but his job hadn't. He kept his old contacts and still was an assassin, but then the troubles broke out. At first he joined a criminal gang, but the pay wasn't good enough, so he started working forhimself bullying money out of people in exchange for "protection".

OOC: Ok well I guess we shall begin
====================
IC: Bakilas slowly opened the door and stepped out, his pistol clutched in his hand. He had been defending his home for the past week and was running low on ammo and food, then he heard the radio broadcast and decided that if he joined the survivors they might have more of a chance of survival.

He stepped into the middle of the road and looked around, several zombie corpses surrounded his home and in the distance he could see many buildings burning. He turned and walked towards the center of town.

OOC: A game with all egyptian gods...

IC: John "the gun"

The protection circuit he was running had started to decline lately as he lost several of his "customers" to either the zombies or other criminal gangs. He armed himself with his two pistols and one machine gun, all hid under his grey overcoat and headed in towards the center of the town to look for new customers.

Bakilas leaned out from the alley he was in and saw a figure walking away from him, he couldn't see any weapons because of the grey overcoat he was wearing but it was unlikely that they would be walking down the center of the road unless they were armed.

He raised his pistol and pointed it at the back of the figures head, "Stop where you are and slowly move your hands out to the side, I don't want to shoot you but if I need to know you are not a zombie. If you are a member of one of these new gangs then I have no wish to have further contact with you and we can both go our seperate ways."

John "the gun"

"Another petty thief, or small time criminal"-he thought to himself with a sigh. In one fluid motion he whirled out his two guns from his overcoat and turned round to face his assailant, ready to shoot if the other man showed any signs of wanting to act against him.

"I'm no zombie, and I do not like it when I am disturbed during my business. I am a member of no gang, I only do my own business. If you don't want to get in my way, then I shall be gone, as my business awaits."

"You are fast, that would explain why you are still alive. But being fast will only get you so far. I received a business proposition recently and am travelling into town, perhaps we should travel together? I am low on ammo and it is wise to travel in groups."

John "the gun"

Seeing that the man facing him was no proffesional he put away his guns and walked over to him extending out a hand.

"My friends call me John. John "the gun". In the old world I would have been a criminal, but in this new situation many people regard me as someone to help them. What kind of business were you talking about."

All this time his other hand was in his pocket on the trigger of the machine gun the man next to him did not yet know about. It never hurt to be prepared.

Seeing that the man was no longer pointing a gun at him Bakilas considered shooting him and taking his weapons, but when he looked into John's eyes he saw a cold look in them and decided that survival was more important.

He put away his pistol and shook John's hand, "I am Bakilas. In the old world I also would have been called a criminal, well for the last few years anyway, but now... well I dont know about now. I received an offer to work for a group that are calling themselves The Apocolypse Survivors, or TAS for short. They want me to do some jobs for them and weaken the zombies and gangs."
