Freemont Airport, 1968

7:00 News, Open to a black/white television, channel switches to News channel 7. cue cut-scene opening, title flashing. After the short cue, a newswoman in front of the airport entrance pulls a microphone up to her face.
Newswoman: Today, at Freemont Airport, A Quarantine was place this morning when several passengers from an incoming flight from Boca were reported sick with an unknown disease. Reports from the air tower has revealed that the plague had been spreading among the citizens trapped inside.
A fly-over of the airport reveals the building to be sealed, with the lights off. A side-scroll reveals a few military cars pulling up to the airport.
Newswoman: I can see... yes, several government officials seem to be approaching the building.
Several armed men get out of the military cars, slowly approaching the airport. one officer runs up to the camera.
Soldier: Shut down that camera! You {Points towards newswoman}! as of now, this building is contained by the {Static drowns out the name of the unit}. you are to remove yourself from the area!
Camera pans to the ground, moving towards the news van. A crashing noise can be heard from the airport. gunshots are heard, the camera points towards the airport, revealing several dozen people running towards and tackling the men standing guard. A zoom-in shows several of the infected biting into and killing the guards. the camera points towards the ground again, and the van door opens, the newswoman enters (panicked).
Newswoman: Oh-h my god!
Camera points out window, the soldier shoots several oncoming infected, but it does nothing. they leap on him, tearing through him in seconds. a last zoom-in of the airport entrance shows a small group of people, walking out with weapons held high. they take out some zombies before heading into one of the military cars before the camera shuts off.

This may be the end, but how did it begin?
Looking for 1-2 Player characters, since I have some from GURPS (Diskussion)

Book Sources: 4th Edition.
Basic Set, High Tech, Horror, some homebrew/internet search stuff on zombies, Possibly mass combat...

Character constraints:
Points: 75, Disad. limit: -50
Tech level: Middle of TL 7 (1968),LC: 4, with LC 3 guns and ammunition available with a 1 point purchase (License: Gun Owner) for each weapon.
status Limits: 0 (Passenger, bag boy, etc.) to 3 (rich lawyer, actress, etc.), same for rank.
Wealth: 2,500$, with a "free" passport and plane ticket. restricted from Struggling to Very Rich (above that, you own a plane...)
Home brew: Recovery [1], Easy to knockout (-2 per level), Common Sense [1]

Location: Freemont, Maine (it's a fictional city, ok?)
Population: 22,000

NPC'S and possible pre-made PC's:
Glen Haverfield, Character Background
Gordy White, Character Background
Sierra Jones, Character Background

Comment area:
The Matrix Walker:
Truthfully, starting wealth IS 15,000$, but you only have access to all that money should you build a full history, as well as purchasing a house, car, etc. this however is very time-consuming.

Just saw Charles... I can't tell if you're being serious, but that character has some flaws.
1) Blindness? really? it's all right, but you're setting your character up with no personality.
2) What's up with the dog? is it an ally, or a signature gear? either way, it's something along a 5 point ally or a signature gear [2 to 3, depending on breed]
3) What's with the 10-point and above skills? shuffle those points around and add more skills... or... I don't know... buy off some disadvantages?
4) What's with the empty bag, and the "equipment"?
sorry if it seems brutal, it's just that your character is quite broken. take the other PC's as guides. points though for the original character.

i'm not saying no, just why?
