I had a friend email me and ask if I was done playing Urban Dead now that I had died. Au contraire, mon ami. The game has only begun. That would insinuate that I’m now roaming around as a zombie, terrorizing survivors and nibbling tasty brain remnants. This is actually not the case. I got revived by a teammate, and now I’m back in action healing up my squad members as they need it.

I’ve actually got three characters in action at the moment.

DrSetebos
Type: Scientist [Doctor]
Level: 4
City: Malton
This is my main character, and the one I have included in an Evil Avatar squad.

Sgt Setebos
Type: Military [Scout]
Level: 1
City: Malton
This is an alt I created to play with a friend. It’s operating a few suburbs away from DrSetebos (there’s a strict rule against playing alts near each other – it’s called “zerging” and it is highly frowned upon by the community at large).

Capt Setebos
Type: Military [Medic]
Level: 1
City: Monroeville
This is a character I created to play in the UD second city, Monroeville, that was created to celebrate Romero’s Diary of the Dead. The city is supposedly “temporary”, and one cool feature is that if you are turned into a zombie in Monroeville, there is no way to become human again. You are permanently zombified. It’s an interesting concept, but so far there’s very few zeds to whack on.

And yes, it’s still a fun game.
