I had a friend email me and ask if I was done playing Urban Dead now that I had died<\/a>. 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.<\/p>\n

I’ve actually got three characters in action at the moment.<\/p>\n

DrSetebos<\/a><\/b>
\nType:<\/b> Scientist [Doctor]
\nLevel:<\/b> 4
\nCity:<\/b> Malton
\nThis is my main character, and the one I have included in an Evil Avatar squad.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Sgt Setebos<\/a><\/b>
\nType:<\/b> Military [Scout]
\nLevel:<\/b> 1
\nCity:<\/b> Malton
\nThis 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<\/a>” and it is highly frowned upon by the community at large).<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Capt Setebos<\/a><\/b>
\nType:<\/b> Military [Medic]
\nLevel:<\/b> 1
\nCity:<\/b> Monroeville
\nThis is a character I created to play in the UD second city, Monroeville, that was created to celebrate Romero’s Diary of the Dead<\/i>. 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.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

And yes, it’s still a fun game.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
