Hi! So I've noticed now with the long wait till season 4 there aren't as many stories being posted as there was when TWD was on air. That or there are not as many people reading these stories? I'm not too sure. Point is I've decided to write my first story and have it be TWD regardless.

This idea is actually an old one I had while waiting between seasons 2&3, the only difference between that idea and what i have in mind now is that I lost the majority of my OC drafts so I have several holes in my plot notes and I'm in desperate need of filling them. I've seen several of these floating around and have decided to try my hand at one. So what I need from you are OC's!

The idea is that Rick, instead of being found by Morgan and Duane, is found instead by my OC while still in the hospital. She brings him back to her small group where they help him get back to health and help him transition into the new world. He convinces them to help him find Lori and Carl (safety in numbers). However they never come across the Atlanta group (now dubbed Shane's group). What I need are OC's to make up Rick's new group. New drama, relationships, villains. Eventually they will meet with Shane's group when my plot catches up with the prison arc. If you want to enter your OC fill out the form below or if you'd rather just suggest I have him meet up with someone already from the show but who wasn't part of the group before season 3 (Tyreese, Morgan, Martinez, etc) just say who it is and your reason for putting tgem in Ricks new group and ill try and see how they fit in with my plot. Please keep in mind that this is a zombie apocalypse so people will die.

Name:

Age:

Gender:

Weapon (if they have one):

History before outbreak (include jobs, hobbies, if they were still in school than what we're they studying):

Family (if they are alive are they separated, in different states/countries, with the OC. If they're dead did they die before or after the outbreak and how):

Personality:

Relationship(s) (due to zombie apocalypse relationships are either ignored by some or put into fast forward by others. Some last others don't and others are ended abruptly. People move on quickly or become severely dependent or obsessed on a single person. Which one is your character? If you don't want your character paired with anyone say so now. If you want your character a part of the romance side but don't care with who just tell me and I'll deal with it):

Role in group:

Anything else about your character (allergies, phobias, illnesses, mental illnesses,etc):

Include anything else you think I might need to better understand your character.

In Case of Death: Do you want me to give you a heads up in form of a PM if your OC dies in the next chapter?

Like in the show characters are killed off and added so if I pick your OC but you don't read about them right away don't worry they will most likely pop up later. This gives new readers an opportunity to submit characters later on in the story.

I haven't read the comics but I know enough to incorporate the plot and characters into my story.

Thanks!
