Zombie Apocalypse — JVR / Just Visiting Reality

Inside this World

Welcome to Zombie Apocalypse

Beyond the compound walls, abandoned highways, looted stores and damaged buildings sit beneath a heavy gray-blue sky. Roads are muddy, structures are worn down, and the weather rarely offers any relief. This is a survival setting where the environment itself helps tell the story.

Inside the walls, survivors have made a life out of whatever still works. Guard towers watch the perimeter. A trading post handles supplies, deposits and credit. Makeshift sleeping quarters and gathering spaces offer a little shelter; when darkness falls, people come together around a large communal fire.

Rocket is a trader who manages one of the compound's barter systems and handles payments for sanctuary. Use the shared references for continuity, then invent your own encounters, conflicts and moments of survival.

Keep it consistent

Creative Notes

Keep exterior skies heavily overcast and gray-blue, with low, diffuse light. Dense clouds, fog, smoke, drizzle and dark weather are part of the established look.
Maintain a worn, improvised environment: muddy or wet ground, ruins, abandoned vehicles, damaged structures, makeshift stalls, sandbags, crates and barrels.
The fortified compound has watchtowers, gates, walkways, a trading post, communal areas, sleeping quarters and rough interior corridors. Treat the reference sheets as the visual source of truth.
Nighttime compound scenes contrast cool, dark surroundings with warm lanterns and firelight. In the large bonfire gathering space, the central fire is the main light source.
Rocket's reference includes his weathered cowboy hat, dusty monkey-print T-shirt, worn pants, boots and utility gear. Preserve the recognizable outfit when depicting him.
Barter, deposits, supplies, credit and sanctuary payments define the trading post; individual creators can invent what happens within those rules.
These references establish a consistent setting, not a fixed script. Original stories and different characters can all take place in the same World.
