I may be biting off way more than I can chew, but I am making a new thread. So, yea yea, heard that one before. Mystery in an old house. You are invited, then people go missing. Exept:

1 This isn't like a Ski Lodge

2 This is an RPG

3 The twists will keep coming

4 There are extra rules!

Rules:

Act howeaver you want, but be careful, the jerks will disappear/die first.

Please, no OP people.

Follow my lead, and stay with the story. No making up random stuff.

Fill out the character sheet completely.

Ok, here is another note:

I will tell you things like "So and so found a hidden room!" and you can post things like "I found a hidden room in X place.", so I will tell you what happens, and you can respond howeaver. There will be times were I do long posts, howeaver.

Long, right? But for this to work, I will need it all. And another thing: Please tell me before you quit.

Anything else?

Before we move on, is everyone OK with a zombie apocalypse?

I'm OK with a zombie apocalypse. BTW, if you didn't see earlier, my powers are telekinesis, cryokinesis, and hydrokinesis.

Here is the last post:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Gared dashed blindly to the Armory. He threw the door off its hinges and grabbed a baseball bat, which he threw towards Danie. Brooklyn grabbed her slingshot and some ammo, not looking hard at either, while Gared dropped the remaining Powerbracelets into a black briefcase.

September and Ashlee pulled the bows out of a cabinet, which they then pushed down across the doorway to serve as a barricade, while Gared slid a shield from a pile onto his back. He then jerked a mace from a shelf. Cleo dragged a pile of wood to the barricade.

They had worked in silence, but seemed to know what to do. They paused once they had finished piling surplus weaponry into the center of the room. “Alright,” Gared said with a sigh. “We should fortify the kitchen as well. We just have to break that wall over there.” He pointed to a bare patch of wall to his right.

Then zombies surged at the barricade. They were greenish, rotten, and dragged across the floor with a horrible cacophony of groans. The barricade shuddered.

Scyllia yelled: “What is going on?”

“I thought we could make people come back alive, return loved ones. I never thought it would be like- like- this.”

“Yeah, well you did a great job keeping the world safe,” Cleo cut in.

“I never meant this. This could be the end.” Gared was looking terrified.

“Everyone! The wall over there! Zombies are in the kitchen,” September shouted as the wall one one side started crumbling.

“You did this!” Cleo yelled at Gared. “You did this. For reasons no sane person will ever understand, you did this. “

“How could I have known?” Gared replied. He had lost his confidence and was waving his mace at the almost destroyed wall to the kitchen, looking very much like a baseball player.

The barricade crumbled. Zombie poured in, and Danie watched in horror as her Powerbraclet of teleportation was snapped by a zombie’s claws. Danie swung at the unheeding green monster, then was dragged back into the undead mob. Brookeria swung her staff, but it shattered. She backed against a wall; Gared jumped to protect her.

“You monster,” Brookeria snarled at Gared. “You ruined the world. For what? Why? So that you would have been rich if you had succeeded?”

“Please. No. I never meant this,” Gared replied, choking back a sob. “I never meant this.”

September and Novelist struggled as they too were dragged into the zombie mob. The remaining fighters in the Armory had almost given up.

“Why?” Ashlee asked. “Why did you do this, Gared?”

“Ha!” Gared started laughing. “Because I will be so rich. You don’t get it, do you? A few people will survive and we will have the weapons to help them. For a price, of course.Sure. Maybe even take over their little faction. But after some miracle, we at Elliot Corp. will save the world, then have power over everyone.”

“You wouldn’t!” Cleo yelled back. “You fiend. You would destroy the world for...control? You are a monster. You deserve to be one of them.” She pointed at the zombies.

“Look,” Gared was surprisingly cool. “You need to understand. We humans were the apex predators. Now, were are second to the zombies. So, we need a strong ruler. One who will have complete obedience from the people. That way, one day, long from now, we will be at the apex again. Apex predators. Right now, people are like an infection. I will manage population, and everyone will be happy with the new, stronger government. Complete security. Complete safety. This all comes from a strong government. This is the future. I. Am. The. Future. I am stron-”

With the last of her strength, Ashlee pushed Gared into the undead mob.

Thanks for reading and creating characters for me to use. I hope you liked the Mystery Thread. I will try to answer any questions promptly.

I mean, it is a satire about corporations. So yes, it is dark.

I like that I get the last move... Although I don't think - in real life - I would ever have a cold enough heart to do that to anyone. But great, anyways! Is that really the last post, though?

Well, we could do a few more wrap-up posts, but this is really a satire about corporations. Elliot Corp has made the zombie apocolips to make money and gain power. But companies work really hard to get power and money. There is a trend of short sightedness, and ignoring envioromental problems.
