General Game Background

Eight months ago terrorist launched a massive bio weapons assault on the world. The agent BU88L3S was unleashed on the world in 10 major cities; London, New York, Washington DC, Los Angeles, Moscow, Paris, Tokyo, Sydney, Seoul and Shanghai. The results of the attack were not fully understood for several days. Slowly reports started coming in that the dead had been reanimated. Most people shrugged it off as nonsense and fantasy that the bio weapon caused mass hysteria, delusions and rage. The Governments of the world relied on misinformation and lack of information to keep the true details of what was happening secrete.

Under UN mandate NATO forces combined resources creating Strike Teams that would be used in areas of the first attacks to keep the numbers of the dead under control. Slowly as the weeks went by and winter started to take hold around the world the cases of the dead walking became less and less, however, by now every corner of the world had been touched by the walking plague (some people who had been bitten by the undead could hide this for several days spreading the plague) and people were no longer shrugging it off. One company, Amgen, based in Silicon Valley, claimed to have found a vaccine, called Folex, and it was put into mass production forced through world wide health organizations including the FDA. What none of them knew or understood at the time was the affects that vampires had to play in the supposed vaccine (even unknown to the vampire community). If a human had ever, in their life, been feed on by a vampire their blood would counter the affects of the bite from a zombie, keeping the person safe and free of zombication allowing the wound to heal normally and the person would be fine, except that their blood would now be poison to the Vampire, should they feed off them again. Because some of the people in the testing groups did not know that they had been feed on by a Vampire there was no way for Amgen or any other group to know that not all people would be safe, even though their own tests showed that the vaccine wasn't even close to being 100%.

Some protection is better then no protection!

That was what they had told Governments and that is what the Governments were looking for, plus it bought them time.

Eight months on and winter is over the abnormally cold winter around the world is now over and the Zombies are out there in greater number. This is where our game will begin.

IMPORTANT

There are Zombies world wide, some areas are more infested then others, but NO WHERE is overrun (not yet). People who are taking the pill Folex and who don't live in the HOT Zones are pretty much not worried about this, the Strike Teams and the Police seem to have things under control, sure things in Asia (China specifically) are a little dicey as well as the Middle East and Africa, but they are far away. New York, LA and Washington DC are quarantined but again the media says it's under control.

The Federal government has temporally been relocated to Honolulu until DC is cleaned up and safe again, so things are well in hand (or so you all think and have been told).

The Vampires are a little more concerned then the humans are. They have a true understanding of the power of miss-information and how easy it is to hide the truth; they invented it.

Clarifications

I thought this might help a little:

To become a vampire you have to be created by a vampire (the vampire basically drains the persons blood and gives them theirs)

Vampires feed on Humans like we get milk from cows (it will only kill them if the vampire decides to kill them, then they destroy/hide the body)

If at any point during a persons life they have been fed on by a vampire there is some enzyme or something left in the blood that if they were to be bitten by a zombie they would be protected from turning into a zombie (they can still be torn to shreds and eaten by the Z's but they will not turn into one)

If a person is bitten by a Zombie (never before bitten by a vampire EVER) and then a hungry vampire decides they want to feed off that person (knowingly or not about the zombie bite) the human's blood is toxic (poison) to the vampire and they could die (they will not however become a zombie).

The vaccine Folex doesn't work, people only think it does because they don't know about the affects of vampire bites on human (sense Vampires don't exist of course neither do zombies).
