In the town of Art-muffin-dead-skin-lovin, we have a few special towns people.
Jamie- The towns farmer. He's, to say the least, a blooming idiot. He can be found at the crossroads in the center if the town with a few horror stories by Steven King. He thinks they are biblical books and he preaches from them. Nobody goes to him for food either. He doesn't think eggs need cold, and when he slaughters an animal he goes overboard and mutilates them. Age: 30
Carmen- She's a drunk. With a very nice shot might I add. She lives in a small, boarded up house near the crossroads. You must be careful walking by because if she thinks you're a zombie, pfft and your dead. But only if she's really drunk. The only time she isn't really drunk is never. Age: 25
Via- um... Usually hanging out somewhere dangerous writing poems or drawing or pairing and screaming "Art is Alive". Age: 22
Luksry- He runs the Flea Market. He wears a old fashioned welding helmet and often has his crowbar. The flea market is totally boarded up and nobody knows how he gets in and out of it. When you go up to trade food with him you trade through the slots in the boards. Sometimes you can even see him poking at a zombie through the slots with his crowbar. Age: 29
Ty - Some kid. Via is very protective over him even though she is a bit (a lot) insane. Nobody really knows why or what relation the two have, and despite being scared of the groups homicidal tendencies, he really looks up to them all. Age: 14
Alana - This towns leader. Jamie calls her "govnr". She's pretty normal but gets frustrated a lot dealing with the group. She even has moments where she try's to kill them all, these attempts are what the small group calls "code red". She bunks up in Walmart. Age: 32
Yep this town is definitely unique. Not to mention their point system. Alana found out that the best way to get the group to focus when killing zombies on a mission is to treat it like a video game. The more ears or fingers or eyes you get, the more points you get. For example, it you got an ear you get one point but if you got a finger you get 3 points and if you get an eye you get 5 points. For every ten points a person gets they get to keep a body part, like a medal. And the winner of each mission gets to pick a prize. I don't know about you, but that seems pretty jacked up to me.
The currency of Art-muffins-dead-skin-lovin is pretty much anything anybody would want. Food, jewelry, drinks, weapons, rope, toilet paper. "Yay I got two rolls of toilet paper for a few peaches".
