Fall 2008 - The Death of John

The warrior and hero John Mohr fell in battle that day. He was one of five humans to charge into the horde. However, he took the brunt of 5 zombies, saving four of his comrades.

The rest of the humans retreated back, stunned a few zombies, and gathered together. The remaining zombies had reinforcements rush in to form a pincer maneuver, eliminating the assistant and many of the humans. Those that remained retreated to the West Campus Suites. Since the zombies at the stadium had received word that the assistant was dead, they had no motivation to protect Captain Greg Wayne. Instead, the bloodthirsty rotting corpses across campus gathered on the west side of campus and massacred the humans. Of the 25 that made a stand that day, three of them escaped into Centennial Hall.

Sam Pixley lived in Centennial, so he made it inside and was safe. Eric Bozarth lived off-campus behind Cenennial, and so he could stay there all night if he had to.

Taylor Moody ran away during the rush, seeing the futility and the inevitable zombificaiton. He ran along the ravine, through the parking lot, around the Rec Center, and eventually made it into some building. Going around the corner and finding a suitable wall, he collapsed and caught his breath.

Josh Hirner and Kristy Carey escaped to Magruder where they were safe for part of the night. Erin Futrell and Chris Jeffrey were there as well.

Jeremy Hellwig, never getting the back-up necessary to eliminate Wayne, escaped without alerting the zombies of his presence.

Jocelyn made it out of the Pincer Maneuver and escaped to live another day. The humans need her leadership, but their morale was too low that day for her to help them or herself.

Justus left before John Mohr died because he had work that night. He is a lucky soul.

There was a rumor that Joe Leiber died between the Pincer Maneuver and the incident at West Campus Suites, but he has sent radio signals since to confirm that he is alive.

195 zombies to 89 humans, and it is the beginning of Day 4.
