I don't know how it happened, or when it happened, but the dead are everywhere. I can't tell you how long i ran down the coat, trying to outrun my undead pursuers, I was finally able to take shelter atop a dock crane, I've lost track of where I am... From here I think I'm going to search for a town, I know its most likely festering with the... I don't know exactly what these things are but for now I'll just call them what they act like.. Zombies... But honestly I don't think I have a choice, i need food, water, and most of all, weapons.

I've yet to find a town, but I have found some friendly survivors and a revolver pistol. The survivors have offered to take me into their group, better with numbers i guess, I'm just thank full to have a safeish place to rest. We've taken up residence in an abandoned military airfield, it's safe as far as i can tell, barricaded in most places and plenty of food and ammo. We'll be bunking in the radio tower, Alix has first watch tonight, but for now we're heading out in groups for supplies.

D... Dead... All dead. We were gone for not even an hour, we heard gunshots in the distance and figured we should head back, everything seemed fine, we got up to the tower and climbed to the top. Three of my newest companions were there, dead, two shot, and one... eaten... Alex went to scout out the area see if he could figure out what happened, I had to tend the bodies, get the out of the main tower room, it was.. a horrible task. What was worse was the pistol put to the back of my head... Alex returned a few moment later to find me, hands raised and disarmed, I don't know why the bandit didn't just shoot me.. kinda wish he had. Alix was down in just one shot, right between his eyes... dear god I'd never seen so much blood in my life, I knew the bandit would kill me next... I had to act, I flung myself backwards and luckily slammed him against some of the equipment, he dropped both his weapons, I only had time to get one. I ran out of there faster then you could imagine, but.. at least I got some food and that bastard's sniper rifle, maybe I can hunt with it?

What luck! I found a Ghillie Suit just sitting in some abandoned house! Of course i changed into it quickly, with this and the knife I found earlier i think I'm going to make my exit from the main roads, head through the dense wood and try and find some more survivors? who knows.
--
End of day one trying to survive... it's been long and hard, I've seen more death and destruction today then I ever have before... Luckily i seem to be avoiding the zombies pretty well, not much dealings with them, but I've had a few close calls with bandits, seems my suit and weapons are highly desired in this area.. i need to be careful... I'm camping out in the middle of the woods, far from zombies and civilization, with any luck I'll be safe here, I killed a bore for dinner and there is a river nearby so i have plenty of clean water... guess we'll see what tomorrow brings?
TL;DR?
I got ArmA II and the DayZ mod and I'm having a friken BLAST! the game is awesome if not VERY hard. I highly recommend it to any fan of Zombies or survival. also it has a very strong survival horror aspect to it so that's epic.
I'm thinking of writing out these "DayZ Files" each day I play the game to document what i do and where i go :3 of course this is mostly fictionalized since i died a LOT and got most of my stuff from scavenging. but I needa spice it up a little and make it one fennec trying to survive in a hostel world :3 Tell me whatcha think?
