So many people dead. So many infected. We need to find way out...

This is our new forum game, created in order to kill time, while waiting for DMT4.
Rules are simple:
2-5 players + Me and Babylon as Game Masters
Everybody who wanna play sends me character sheet (example at the bottom)
I or Babylon are describing what is happening, players are writing what they do.
We use dice and your stats to see what happens, and describe it.
There is food system, every in game day number of portions equal number of players is taken from equipment. If it reach zero characters are weaker for two in game days and finally dies. You need to search for food. If there is less food than players you need to solve the problem: who doesn't eat?
In game:
No swears (well not too much)
No silly things
No names calling
NO ALL CAPS
If any player isn't responding for 48 hours his character dies. (Of course not if it's caused by our lack of response)
If rules are broken character dies.
Example:
Player: FUCK U BITCHES WHY DID I LOOSE THE FIGHT????? FUCK!!!!!!!!!!
Player is struck by lighting.
/Example
Plot: You are in the Forbidden District from DMT2 (part that wasn't seen in the game), you need to escape.

You can now send me your player sheets, here is example:
Character Sheet:
Name: Only standard letters, no: ćźżśńółęą and other stuff from other languages.
Specie: Only what we know from DMT
Profession and one ability that is connected to it. (eg. Fisherman-ability to gain food from lakes rivers etc.)
Background story (max one paragraph)
Skills
(max skill points 25)
Knowledge 1-10
Intelligence 1-10
Strength 1-10
Agility 1-10
Combat sills 1-10
two extra abilities
All abilities must be logically connected to background story.
+two items, one piece of weapon and description of your clothes.
That's all, have fun.

Mateusz's sketches are allowed too?

EDIT: and will there be drawings, or it's only text? I'm asking because if you need the clothes and all that...

OK, you can send character sheets till 8pm 14th of May, or till we got five players.
However game will be canceled if we'll got less than two players at this point.

It's nothing new on the earth, I didn't think it all up for myself, it's very popular in the net, based on the old style paper RPG sessions.
I read one or two, I know the rules, read the guide and I hope I will menage to make this game as good as possible.

NAME: Nruv Arte
SPECIES: Librarian
PROFESSION: Ex-librarian, apothecary's assistant. Abilities: vast knowledge about stuff. Learned to heal wounds during his work in the pharmacy.
BACKGROUND STORY: Arte was nurtured in a middle-class family with long librarian traditions. For some time, he was actually fulfilling his role as a librarian; he learned the intricacies of bookbinding work, catalogization of literary works, as well as he could read and write, unlike many of his fellow daymarians. But then, he was fired because of an unlucky accident he soon regretted. His superior told him to never come back. Nruv's misdeed was that he tried to prove the Asotyrean Theorem, which pertained to the summoning rituals of Nyarlanthotepian-spawn. To be more specific, the young librarian tried to invoke Damascus Serpentaries; luckily, he failed to do so. He had to resort to looking for a new source of income, so he became an apothecary's assistant.
SKILLS:
Knowledge: 6
Intelligence: 7
Strength: 4
Agility: 4
Combat skills: 4
ITEMS: Painkiller pills, a hammer.
WEAPON: Pocket knife.
CLOTHES: Long hooded black robes.
ADDITIONAL ABILITIES: Great at convincing people to his will. Knows basic magic.

Vurn, you're lacking the two additional abilities of your character, not?

Btw, how many participants are there already? :D
