A Runner-class Zombie from the Undead Paradise TTRPG. The strength of their leg muscles have been enhanced. Mould-like ligaments extended outside the body, wrapping around the quadriceps, hamstrings and calf muscles. The soles of their feet peeled away the skin, letting hard bone contact the earth. The skin around their eyes rotted away, erasing their eyelids.

In the beginning of the outbreak, zombies were-on average- slower than their prey. Contagion required physical contact, therefore the virus mutated.

Runners are zombies with remarkable speed & maneuverability. They are also one of the Undead Classes in my #ttrpg Undead Paradise.

This week I've started setting up a website dedicated to my developing #ttrpg Undead Paradise.

The players take on the role of zombies who have regained their sentience/memories and are now navigating a mutated world long after humanity has fallen.

This temple has stood watch overlooking the ocean for hundreds of years and has served gods and their worshippers. It is far enough from civilization that few come across it, but the caverns in the cliff face below are used by seafarers. Do not be tempted to wander and explore the ruins above!

In the pew-lined interior of a dim medieval church lit by rows of candles on tall staffs and pale sunlight coming through a window, a tall humanoid crow figure with flowing black robes and a glowing yellow eye stands beneath an ornately carved semicircular arch in Norman Romanesque style. On the wall surrounding the arch are many colourful murals depicting more humanoid crow figures with halos, carrying various items including swords, spears, harps, and chalices.

In the pew-lined interior of a dim medieval church lit by rows of candles on tall staffs and pale sunlight coming through a window, a tall humanoid crow figure with flowing black robes and a glowing yellow eye stands beneath an ornately carved semicircular arch in Norman Romanesque style. On the wall surrounding the arch are many colourful murals depicting more humanoid crow figures with halos, carrying various items including swords, spears, harps, and chalices.

A painting set in a cosy shady woodland clearing on a sunny summer's day. In the centre of the frame, two figures sit on a fallen log mostly hidden by vegetation. The figure on the right has wavy blonde hair down past her shoulders, and wears a flowing white floor-length dress with long sleeves, with delicate lacework around the cuffs and neckline. She looks into the distance with a contemplative, sad expression. On her lap rests a small green book, covered by both of her hands. 
The figure on the left sits leaning with her head against shoulder of the other figure. She wears a similar dress but simpler, and in a dark slate grey. Her hair is dark and straight, and flows down her tilted face, and she looks off towards a nightingale bird perched on a nearby branch. She raises a hand towards the other figure as if to get her attention.

Both figures are surrounded by various flowers. On the left of the frame are many spires of foxglove flowers in vivid pink and white, interspersed among green stinging nettles.  On the right are the purple flowers of monkshood/wolfsbane. 

Wrapping around the figures is a clear stream flowing from a distant pond that descends in a series of steps. Around the stream are many small mossy rocks, and shoots of dark green dog's mercury.

Above and behind the figures and flowers are two trees; on the left is a weeping willow with dangling dark green leaves. On the right are the branches of an old ash tree.

A snowy scene in which a humanoid figure in long black robes with the head of a rook stands in a churchyard holding a long spear. By its feet is a red fox. Both are flecked with fallen snow. Around them are many weathered snow-covered graves. In the background is a medieval church of warm coloured stone with large rectangular windows and a battlemented parapet topped with pinnacles. Behind the main body of the church is the tower with clock face and belfry. Behind the church are tall but bare trees dusted with snow. More snow falls in the air.

Undead Paradise is a #TTRPG about zombies who have regained their sentience & are now navigating a mutated world long after humanity has fallen.

The mind is the essence of a reawakened zombie, therefore memories play a key role in the PC's health and progress.

Illustration of the fellowship from the Fourth Age actual play. They are at a high altitude looking down into a valley with a river. From left: Theodas (bald elf, many scars, dark beard, golden interlocking armor, dull blue cape); Iairen (elf, medium brown skin, kinky brown hair with undercut and half up style, blue robes, holding a blue palantir); Mistiel (elf with dark brown skin, copper cape, long white box braids half up, golden armour); Eona (human, dark brown long hair with golden scales woven through, leathers and cape, holding a sword); Chicory (hobbit-elfish, lilac dress, pale skin, brown hair in loose waves, holding a wooden staff that crooks over and holds a glowing white stone); Aerlind (elf, dark hair, blue fine outfit, tanned skin, east asian features, holds an astrolabe in one hand).

Two images in one.

First: A stylised illustration of my Rook, Dawes Mercar (short dark hair, green eyes, thick brows, olive skin). He stands with on arm crossed in front of his face, obscuring his mouth, and holds a white silhouette of Solas's dagger. In the background is a Shadow Dragon mural of diamond design in teal, with red chains crossing over. A mural of a dragon emerges from it, passing in front of Rook.

Second: A tarot illustration of the Two of Swords. It has a textured, stylised feel. It depicts Kismet (drow, white curly hair in a shag cut, purple skin, hooked nose) and his sister Zhuthra (white straight hair in a bob cut, purple skin, slightly shorter). They are back to back with stylised white rapiers intersecting through both of their chests. They are both blindfolded. Kismet looks up, and has a tear falling down his cheek. One hand is raised with two forefingers straight, like many depictions of saints. The background is green with an abstract depiction of Rosohna. In the middle top is a white crescent moon and round red moon.

Illustration from first person view, showing a hand holding up an opalescent stone with a hole in the center. The stone has brass filigree, and through the hole is a view of a mountain sheep. The background is a mountainous landscape. There are slight magical effects showing that the view through the stone is a zoomed in view of the background.

A ratio 3:2.
For example, if you have 12 people, there would be 9 rounds.
A special card turns human to zombie. When a zombie turns a human, the card is transferred to the new infected. If the zombie holding the infection card is eliminated, the card is randomly given to another zombie next round.

Maybe, if a zombie can infect only one other person, it would cancel out the possibility of everyone winning, and incentivise eliminating zombies.

This issue with the zombie game is that there's no drawback to zombies winning. Each round the zombies can double thier numbers until everyone's a zombie and everyone wins.
If there was a prize pool, then the zombies would be incentivised to win but with reduced numbers.
