As I was driving, evading the walkers, I found an opening and sped toward it. When I drove through the gap I rammed a walker, losing control of my car, and stopped in the middle of a street, still being pursued by walkers. "I've gotta get out of the city." I said. I continued driving in the direction I was heading, noticing walkers swarming around a tank to my right. Ignoring them, I continued.
Within a half hour, I made it out of Atlanta. "I've made it. Now what?" Now that I think of it, I didn't really have a plan of any kind. "I'll just keep driving until I find a group of survivors, if there are survivors."
Okay how can I best explain this? Okay, the Lambent are sometimes called 'Glowies' because of the yellow glow they give off. Much unlike the Locust, the Lambent are solely created by prolonged exposure to Imulsion. Anything can become Lambent. The Lambent are also capable of mutations, unlike the Locust. Also, some Lambent can explode upon death. There, just pretty much explained the Lambent.
I'll apply but won't post too often. But what would be nice is a description of the islands.

Bio (Optional, doesn't have to be long.): (Coming soon. Blasted writer's block.)
It has been more than five months since the loss of the city of Jacinto. The Locust were thought to have been destroyed when the hives were flooded, but we were all wrong. They have become more Savage. On top of that, the Lambent are a bigger threat than ever before. Across the world, there are remnants of human civilizations, people struggling to survive in the now-changed planet of Sera. Alongside the civilians trying to survive, there are also remnants of a military force known as the COG, or gears as some call them, also trying to survive the Locust and the constantly growing Lambent. You are among the survivors. Will you take up arms with the Coalition and fight for humanity's future, help out common citizens as a Stranded, or destroy what's left of humanity as a Locust?
Weapons:
COG weaponry:
Lancer Mk II:
The Lancer is a commonly used assault rifle issued by the Coalition. It contains a large magazine, holding sixty rounds. One of it's most distinctive features is the chainsaw bayonet. With it's sharp teeth and high speed, it is capable of taking down most organic enemies in a matter of seconds.
Lancer Mk I:
The Mark One Lancer Assault Rifle was used frequently during the Pendulum Wars, before humanity's first encounter with the Locust. Shortly after the start of the Locust Wars, the Mk I Lancer was being replaced by the Mk II, due to the bayonet not very useful against the Locust, not to mention the high kickback. After the Sinking of Jacinto, and the start of the Lambent Pandemic, this particular Lancer started making some reappearances due to the scarcity of supplies.
Longshot Sniper Rifle:
The Longshot is a high-caliber, bolt-action sniper rifle. The weapon can only hold one bullet at a time. The rifle made it's first appearance during the Pendulum Wars. With it's high power, accuracy, and competent scope, one can remain uninjured or even unseen during firefights. The Locust are also known to use this weapon.
Hammer of Dawn:
The Hammer of Dawn is an Imulsion-powered, high-powered weapon. The Hammer is a satellite orbiting Sera. It is triggered by a targeting laser. Due to the fact that it's in Sera's exosphere, The Hammer of Dawn can only be used if the satellites are available, the skies are clear, and the user is outside and has a clear line of sight.
Snub Pistol:
The Snub Pistol is a standard issue sidearm issued by the Coalition. This pistol has low power and a small range, and as such, is rarely used. It can, however, be quite useful in certain situations if used properly.
Gnasher Shotgun:
The Gnasher Shotgun is a lever-action shotgun. The Gnasher fires 12-gauge shells, with nine pellets per shell. The Gnasher can hold up to eight shells. This weapon, due to it's power at close-range, are very effective against Wretches.
Sawed-Off Shotgun:
The Sawed-Off Shotgun is a small double-barreled shotgun. This shotgun has really high power, capable of tearing down most targets within one shot at point-blank range. This shotgun can only fire from one barrel at a time, and the barrels are reloaded individually.
Bolo Grenade:
The Bolo Grenade is a standard issue fragmentation grenade. The main grenade is attached to a chain that is swung and thrown. Despite it's high power, it is unable to damage enemies who are behind cover, no matter how close the grenade is.
Smoke Grenade:
The smoke grenade is a nonlethal, smoke-dispensing grenade. The smoke grenade causes very little damage, and it's sole purpose is to provide cover by hiding the user from enemy sights. The smoke grenade, however, is capable of stunning it's target.
Vulcan Gatling Gun:
The Vulcan Gatling Gun, also known as the Vulcan Cannon, is a high-powered machine gun. Despite the fact that the Cannon requires two people, one should not underestimate this weapon. Due to the high firepower of this weapon, it is capable of killing even a Reaver in a matter of seconds.
Locust weaponry:
Hammerburst Assault Rifle:
The Hammerburst Assault Rifle was commonly used by the Locust during the early days of the Locust Wars. This weapon has a six-round burst, but when it comes to accuracy and power, not even the Lancer surpasses this weapon, especially at longer ranges, and as such, is sometimes used by the Gears.
Torque Bow:
The Torque Bow was originally made by the Locust. It uses explosive-tipped, Imulsion-powered arrows. It has very high power surpassed only by a few weapons, such as the Boomshot and the Digger. The longer the bow trigger is held down, the stronger the shot will be. Before and during the Lambent Pandemic, Theron Guards, a sub-type of Locust, frequently used the Torque Bow.
Hammerburst Mk II:
The Mark II Hammerburst is an upgrade of the Hammerburst Assault Rifle used by the Locust Horde in the early days of the Locust Wars. Unlike it's Mk I counterpart, the Mark II has both a semi-auto and a full-auto firing modes. Unlike the previous version, the Mark II has a small magazine, holding only twenty rounds.
These are not all of the weapons.
Rules:
1. No Godmodding.
2. No Powerplaying.
3. No Metagaming. (Whatever that is.)
4. No killing people of the same faction.
5. Try to keep IC posts to a two line minimum if possible.
6. Violence is allowed, but keep it suitable for age 17, no higher.
7. Romance is allowed, but keep it suitable for age 14, no higher.
8. When I say Locust, you say Grub.

After over five hours, I have finally arrived in Atlanta. "Damn this place is a ghost town." I said. I got out my pistol, in case things don't go right. Upon reaching an intersection I noticed a walker. "It's just one." I drove in the direction opposite of the walker, noticing a herd of walkers after a few minutes.
"Looks like the promise of that refugee center was a lie." I kept driving and sped up as fast as this car can go, trying to evade the walkers.
Not wanting to wait anymore, I got up from the chair, aimed my gun at the door, and pulled the trigger, expertly hitting a walker in the head. I continued firing upon the door until it was clear of walkers. I exited the house and shot the walkers near my car. When the walkers were down I made my way to my car, only to have a walker grab my ankle as I entered the driver's side. I tried shooting the walker, but I had ran out of ammo. Throwing the gun to the seat behind me, I grabbed my axe, and struck the walker, barely missing it's wrist. When I was freed from the walker's grasp, I closed the door, turned on the ignition and drove off, ignoring the herd.
"I'll definitely have to go to Atlanta." I said as I was driving east.
Excellent mod, but I have a suggestion if it's possible to be implemented: The Crimson. Has most of the same properties as the Corruption, except for different colors, different set of mobs, and large caves instead of chasms. And pulsating hearts instead of shadow orbs, and the Brain of Cthulhu as the replacement for the Eater of Worlds.
((Starting in two more IC posts, I will start heading North, to New York. First I'll go to Atlanta but immediately leave because at this point it has been overrun. I will say no more.))
I looked back outside and saw two of the people leave the truck and run from the herd, while the other four are left for the walkers. "I don't think they'll be leaving." I said. Seems like I may have to abandon this place. I crouched back down and moved quietly to the kitchen.
As I tried to reach for some bread, a walker started banging on the door. "F---." I said. "How the hell did they see me?" I figured out my only option. "How am I gonna get to the car?"
I went to the bedroom. "Where is it?" I searched everywhere in the room, under the bed, in the drawers, even behind the television stand. "Of course." I went over to the bathroom adjacent to the bedroom. I opened the cabinet beneath the sink and pulled out a metal lockbox. Taking my hatchet, I smashed the lock and opened the box. Inside was a Colt M1911 handgun with one box of ammo.
Loading the gun and taking the ammo, I went to the living room to gather the remaining supplies, limited as they may be. "Looks like I'll have to go to Atlanta after all." I sat on a chair to wait for the walkers to clear away from the door.
I peeked outside the window to see if the herd has passed. To my disappointment, they haven't. When I crouched back down, I began hearing gunfire. I looked back outside and saw a group of people on a truck firing recklessly at the herd. "Are they crazy?" I quietly said. I crouched down again, trying my best to stay out of sight. "Those guys are suicidal."
Sunflowers' purpose is to help people figure out what direction they're facing by always facing east. Although one can easily figure out the direction they're facing in the debug (F3) menu.
