YOUR Zombie Apocalypse Survivors: Wikipedia Edition

[Betancore]

I get a footballer named Richard Jackson [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Jackson_(footballer_born_1900)], an educator/physician named Edward Augustus Holyoke [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_Augustus_Holyoke] and a farmer/politician named Yosef Goldberg [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yosef_Goldberg]. We will be holing up at Ram Island Ledge Light [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ram_Island_Ledge_Light], a lighthouse in Casco Bay.

Sweet. So I get...brute strength, a smart doctor guy, and a farmer. I think I'm good. As long as we don't get too many zombies walking underwater to reach our lighthouse.

[Irony's Acolyte]

This was so fun I decided to make another one!

Its August 1942, in Los Angeles California. The body of Jose Diaz is found dead near the Sleepy Lagoon. In our timeline it will be known as the Sleepy Lagoon murder [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sleepy_Lagoon_murder], but in this one it will only be remembered as the start of even more terrible war then the one already raging. Unfortunately Diaz's body rises from the dead and begins attacking nearby people who are investigating the crime. Perhaps this oddity was caused by a recent rip in the time fabric which, asides from causing the Z-plague to spread through the city, deposites three throughly confused time-travelers into this nightmare. Thomas Williams [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Williams_(Royal_Navy_officer)], a Royal Navy officer from the 18th and 19th century, Dietmar Mögenburg [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dietmar_M%C3%B6genburg], a gold-medal winning German high jumper, Victor Pellot [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Victor_Pellot], the first black Puerto Rican baseball player in Major League Baseball, and me [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/profiles/view], perhaps the only one even slightly prepared for a zombie apocalypse out of this group.
While we battle for our lives in Southern California, the Z-plague begins to spread world-wide. This causes WW2 to grind to a halt as humanity turns to face an even greater foe: the living dead. (I imagine that Churchill would be forced to put his money where his mouth is due to his famous quote "If Hitler invaded hell I would make at least a favorable reference to the devil in the House of Commons." Now with a greater threat, he might be forced to put aside his differences with the Nazis and focus on the zombie menace.)

 

[Nostalgia Ripoff]

I have Robert Eddy [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Eddy], Greg Cunningham [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gregg_Cunningham], and Richard Tecwyn Williams. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Tecwyn_Williams] An Australian Soccer Player, a former Republican member of the Pennsylvania House of Rep., and a Biochemist. And we're all fighting in Forest_Hill, Newark, New Jersey [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forest_Hill,_Newark,_New_Jersey], in 1999. I do believe I am screwed, as I think only one of us has a chance of outrunning the Zombies (If it's 28 Days Later zombies.) If it's regular zombies, then I'm still screwed since I don't think any of us would know how to handle a gun. Though I do have a home field advantage.

The zombie apocalypse has finally started and you have to survive. You get to have four people in your group of survivors to help out. But the thing about survivors is that you never know who you're going to wind up with.

To figure out who your survivors are, you must go to Wikipedia and hit the "random article" button. The first three PEOPLE to appear are the members of your team, the first place to appear is WHERE you'll be making your stand, and the first date or time is WHEN you'll be fighting.

For example, I got:
Fred H. Colvin, Digvijay Singh, and James Lyall Sharp as my fellow survivors. We'll be making our stand at the 2007 Bonnaroo Music Festival.

Here you are: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page
Now, get started!!!

EDIT: Finding time periods is a little difficult... so, if nothing comes up for a while, don't worry about it. Although thinking about a zombie apocalypse happening during ancient Rome or the Renaissance is kinda cool...

you, good sir, must be appraised! you have brought light to the otherwise dull and apparantly malware infested(according to google chrome) forums of the escapist. thank you fine sir.

 

[waroftheflyingzebras]

1983 Dilly texas
Edward Kai Wang (2010 Buffalo Bills) Offensive tackle
Duke Nukem (Video game charter) ? screw you I?m including him
Halfdan (Viking warlord)
1st SS Division Leibstandarte SS Adolf Hitler (an entire war division of Top ranked blood thirsty Nazis)

Well looks like me, Edward, Duke, Halfdan and the most elite division of Nazi Germany will be facing the Undead in Dilly Texas. Somehow that name does not fit the rest of the situation. The only town that I know of that would fit that is Mc.awsome/fuckedup ville.
Well looks like I will survive, but I?m concerned that Edward might kill the Nazis? Well lets just say that the undead better pack up and leave because if they come within one inch of Dilly Texas they are screwed. Know what? Going to make a story.
Through a massive Quantom blast the entire first division of the SS, Duke Nukem and Halfdan are teleported to Dilly texas where I?m getting Edward to sign a jersey. SS leader ?halt in the name of the Furher!? Duke nukem shoots the leader and then points the gun at all the other Nazis ?I?m Leader now bitches and if any of you want to object I will rip off your head and shit down your neck? None of the Nazis raze any objection. Before we can figure out what happened we hear the groans of zombies coming over the hill. Halfdan points his battle axe and calls out (in English for some strange reason) ?what beasts are they? They look like men but act like wolves!? The zombies march down the hill. Duke Orders all gunners to blast the horde. In a stunning sight 40 German Tiger tanks pummel the mountain side, Dozens of zombies are blown to smitheriens by the 35 mm explosive tank shell. But just as it looks as they are going to be pushed back zombies start coming out of the buildings. The German elite guard snap into action as machine gun and rifle fire sear the slow moving bodies. And just on the horizine appears and unending horde of zombies, even the elite german guards look on in dismay but all is not lost. Duke nukem and Halfdan charge into the mob head on. Duke takes out his Big Fucking Gun and starts blasting away the zombies, Halfdan with his might battle axe cleaves all those infront of him in two. Edward runs a metal beam and proceeds to rush straight into the zombie horde. The German military now regaining in sense of pride Order a full artillery bombardment from where the zombies are coming from. Elite SS troops storm up buildings and tower clearing everything in their way, Once reaching the top they lay down a barrage of bullets on the mass of undead attackers. Halfdan strikes his battle so hard not only does it cleave through his opponent but hit the rocky ground and breaks. The zombies start to close in on him. But he didn?t earn Halfdan the vicious for nothing, He took out a 10 stared mace and procced to pound the zombie?s head. Duke Nuke having recently run out of ammo takes out shotgun and proceeds and blast the undead from point blank range. Before the day is done, thousands of undead corpses lay the ground unmoving. Duke nukem stands upon a particalry high pile of corpses and says triumphantly ?does anybody have any gum??

 

[Death God]

Well the first couple of them were all weapons and music album, a couple of towns in the US and an elite group of fighter but eventually I got these guys. With these guys, I'm a 100% sure I'd live.

[Trent Kama]

Mark Hentemann(writer for Family Guy), Dr. Carl Hite(President of Cleveland State Community College), and Kenneth A. Carey(deceased American Olympic sailor) making their stand at Hotel Paracas, in Peru.

Interesting scenario.

 

[Katherine Kerensky]

Oooh, I just have to try my luck with this one...
Location: Francis, Oklahoma [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Francis,_Oklahoma]
Survivors: Irvin Pelletier [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irvin_Pelletier] (A politician, so at least we have something to distract the zombies with), Scott Mann [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scott_Mann] (a British film director), and Emily Fitzroy [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emily_Fitzroy] (A British film actress, and eventually an American citizen).
Year: 1897 [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1897_in_Afghanistan] (In Afghanistan, so Francis, Oklahoma, has been moved to the middle east for the purposes of this zombie outbreak).

Well... If I get the last two people to make a film, and the politician to make some kind of distraction, I may be able to find a safe place.

So I guess it all goes down like this:

Yay! I'm not the only one who wrote a story! I like it.

 

[Tukadian]

Well looks like me, Edward, Duke, Halfdan and the most elite division of Nazi Germany will be facing the Undead in Dilly Texas. Somehow that name does not fit the rest of the situation. The only town that I know of that would fit that is Mc.awsome/fuckedup ville.

This one was pretty good too, I lol'd.
