    I have great evasion tactics (I was that kid that could do a sharp turn while running while the chaser had to round it out to turn) and both natural and pharmaceutical medical knowledge.

    I also come with my own practical (functional) swords.



    Mortician on your team FTW.

    Um. My strength would be distracting the zombies with my tasty flesh so the rest of you could get away.

    I'm just being honest. :laugh:

    I'm working on the running part, but I think my main strengths are in the area of starting a new civilisation. Among my skills are:
    - gathering and growing edible stuff
    - making food stuffs like bread from wild yeasts, jams & preserves, drying meat etc
    - making wool and other fibers into yarn and this into clothing, blankets etc
    - brewing
    - making soap

    I can run, shoot, lift heavy things, know edible plants, have a stock of food and survival items, and I can do martial arts (protect myself even without weapons). I also wouldn't mind killing zombies (in fact I'd enjoy it before it got monotonous), butchering animals, killing or disabling human attackers/looters.

    The one thing I always think is surely going as far north as possible would be best for me as I'm in Canada. No way the zombies would survive winter in some areas getting to -50 Celsius(maybe colder?) ...they'd freeze, lose limbs from the cold etc. Even if they could somehow come back to "life" after thawing, we could just wait until they've all frozen and destroy their brains just in case. Problem solved.

    Well, I am big enough and have enough meat that I could be the guy that you trip and while they eat me you could get away!

    I tell jokes. People would save me so I could entertain them in the shelter.

    Right?

    I've watched every episode of The Walking Dead. That's got to count for something.

    I'm tasty and tender?

    Do tell!

    In other words everyone else would be running while my fat butt was getting chewed up by the zombies.

    weakness: my inability to value human life over the lives of walkers.

    strengths: handy with a knife when a slower, nicer sibling is near, and looking at flowers

    Feed me sugar and I develope a complete lack of self preservation or care for my own personal well being.

    Could be handy as a decoy or first fool to enter a zombie filled room.

    I'm a wilderness survival expert (certified... no really). I was raised in a remote part of the world and can live for a long time off the land. I am strong, fast, and ruthless when need be. I have 2 graduate degrees so I think I could probably do fairly well at urban survival too. I have an outdoors gear obsession and am ready to head for the hills at the slightest provocation. Oh... and I know how to fire rifles, shotguns, and other long guns.

    I'm a Paramedic, spontaneous emergency medicine is kind of my thing... plus leadership kinda comes with the territory when managing chaotic scenes.

    Oh yea, I'm also a good shot with handguns, shotguns, and rifles (bolt action and semi)

    Bring it!

    I seem harmless, so you'll trust me, right up until the point where I take you out and steal all your *kitten*. Assuming the husband survives, it will probably actually be him that takes you out while I'm distracting you.
