Giving up his struggle with the gate, Kcdaspot takes a few steps back to look up and down the strip mall again. He rubs his eyes, trying to rub the fatigue out of them, then begins to walk towards a Chinese food restaurant storefront. He stumbles. He falls.
He rises.
Zombification roll: 2 = 2. Kcdaspot has turned.
chesskid3: 4
chesskid3 pulls out a Bowie knife and charges the zombie mob. Within seconds he is beaten back, with even more bites and scratches than before. Realizing the end is near, he readies himself to commit seppuku. Not being entirely sure what "seppuku" is, he takes a wild guess that cutting his own throat will do. With a burst of sheer determination, he grabs the Bowie knife and shoves it straight through his own throat, severing the spinal cord and preventing further zombification.
chesskid3 is now dead.
jmj3000: 5
Racking the first shell home, jmj3000 runs up to the zombies, racks a shell home, and fires at the closest one. The buckshot slams into the zombie's head, tearing the decomposing skull brain to shreds. He racks the shotgun and fires at the second zombie. The left side of its head and neck are torn off, and the zombie falls to the ground with a moan.
The next shell being a slug, jmj3000 takes out the third and final zombie from across the yard with a well-placed headshot. The path to the shed is now free of zombies.
jmj3000's shotgun is now loaded with 3 slugs; his bag contains two 10-shell boxes of buckshot (one full, one with 3 missing) and one 10-shell box of slugs (with 4 missing). [
Note: I seem to have made a continuity goof somewhere concerning jmj3000's spare ammunition - replace "birdshot" with "buckshot" where necessary, and pretend one of the three original boxes was slugs. -- PB

Zodiark13: 1
Zodiark13 quickly grabs a screwdriver and enthusiastically begins prying at the panel. The panel refuses to budge, and the screwdriver snaps. Zodiark13 falls forward and drives the splintered end into his leg.
Zodiark13 will have a -1 penalty next turn for pain and inability to move quickly.
Klazam: 5
Klazam yanks the axehead out of the wall and walks into the garage. He finds a coil of rope and cuts himself a six-foot length from it. He securely ties one end to the base of the axehead, and twirls it experimentally. It seems to make a potent weapon.
Klazam now has a sort of axehead flail.
AurorusVox: 2
AurorusVox turns around back towards the house, wondering who made the noise he heard. He finds that the garage door has closed behind him and is now locked. Through the class, he can see Klazam standing at the rear of the garage. He calls Klazam to open the door, but Klazam is too engrossed in his new toy to bother.
Suddenly, as Zodiark13 is trying to staunch the bleeding from his leg, there is a loud metallic clacking, and then the hatch opens into the shelter. A teenager wearing a purple jacket has just climbed out and is giving a hand to a second sartorially-...vibrant individual when they notice the shelter is not unoccupied.
"Who are you?" the latter figure asks.
CSL and animorpherv1 have joined the game.
Spoiler: Turn 38 Actions
1. jmj3000: Go to the house next door and scour it for ammo.
2. Zodiark13:
Find out whats in the area that my two new people have come out from.
Help my new friends inside and then shut the hatch they came out of.
3. Klazam: open the garage door, and step outside (not closing the door).
4. AurorusVox: Bang on the glass.
5. CSL: Use my wand to summon a Snow Leopard.
6. animorpherv1: Help Zodiark up.

In the same fallout shelter as Zodiark13, a couple houses away from the McMansion jmj3000, Klazam, and AurorusVox are in. The tunnel you and animorpherv1 came out of leads to another house nearby, one which you had stripped of supplies over the past few days and were abandoning.

This makes things useful.

Mod: I'm supposed to have my own coil of rope too. Inventory check, pls.
(by my count, I have a axflail, another ax, bigger one this time, medevial
Chain mail, and a coil of rope. Is this correct?)
If the above is correct,
open the garage door, and step outside (not closing the door)
I'm ready to go medevial on zombies. Who's with me?

You have one throwing-axe, one axe-flail made from the head of a throwing axe, one larger axe, faux-medieval chainmail, and a coil of rope.
If the above is correct,
open the garage door, and step outside (not closing the door)
Let me know if the extra axe changes your plans.

jmj3000 proceeds towards the neighboring house to check for more ammo. With a well-placed blow from shotgun's stock, he breaks down the door and enters. He checks the main and upper floor, but they are barren of ammo. He descends into the dark basement, but is unable to find anything.
He hears a moan and looks up. At the top of the stairs, he sees three dark, decaying figures silouetted against the light.
Zodiark13: 4-1 = 3
Once his new teammates are safely inside the bunker, Zodiark13 casually drops the panel back down. It slams into the recess, jammed tightly. At which point he remembers that there was no handle to open it from inside the shelter.
AurorusVox: 4
With zombies approaching, AurorusVox frantically hammers on the window of the door to get the attention of the person inside. He sees their head turn towards the door and walk towards him....
Klazam:6
Eager to go medieval on some zombies, Klazam hefts his battleaxe and cleaves the door in two. He steps outside next to AurorusVox, ready for battle.
So are the twenty or so zombies staring at the strange man in the shiny clothing.
CSL: 6
CSL waves her wand and utters a foreign chant. A bluish-white, giant leopard appears in the middle of the bunker. It growls and looks around, examining its strange new environment. Its steely eyes fixate on CSL, the evil fairy who tore it from its spiritual world.
It pounces at her, but is only able to knock her wand aside. She is still uninjured.... for now.
animorpherv1: 3
Narrowly avoiding the vicious Snow Leopard, animorpherv1 helps the injured Zodiark13 up, but is unable to do anything about the splintered screwdriver imbedded in Zodiark13's leg.
Spoiler: Turn 39 Actions
1. jmj3000: BLAST SOME ZOMBIES.
2. Zodiark13: Let ani take out the screwdriver.
3. Klazam: WHIRL MY AXFLAIL AND MOW DOWN ZOMBIES.
4. AurorusVox:
Run inside the house and lock the door.
Break off a piece of door and hammer some nails through it, making an primitive but effective spiked club-like weapon.
5. CSL: Convince the snow leopard that I am of no harm to her. Name it Riley.
6. animorpherv1: Do something about the screwdriver. Preferrably remove it.
