PLOT:
A nondescript pony trots along a barren road, a gun in hoof and his eyes scanning the empty cars for anything of use. Little does he know, he is being followed by a pony slowly trotting behind him. This pony is wearing a mask of stitched together fabric and tarp, the only visible part of their face being it's left eye, which is bloodshot. That pony is known as a "Half-mind."
He wants to tell the traveler to run. to hide, to get as far away from him as possible so he isn't hurt.
That's what he wants to say.
What actually comes out of his mouth is;
"I WANT TO TASTE YOUR SPINAL FLUIDS!!!" He yelled before plunging an axe into the traveler's skull.
This is the life of a victim of a disease known as "Mind-Shivers." It is transferred by fluid contact, so a bite from one should do it. It starts off small, the only symptom being small, quick violent thoughts. But as the days go on, they slowly become more violent and prolonged. Eventually, the infected part of the brain will take over the body, leaving the host conscious, but unable to control their bodies as they tore apart friends, family, and strangers alike. In rare cases, the original personality is able to remain in control, but only with extreme willpower and heavy antibiotics.
The Half-minds have recently begun to outnumber "normal" ponies, and most governments around the world have fallen, spare for very small remnants of armies.
RULES:
1. No Godmodding.
2. No Meta-Gaming / Mind Reading.
3. This is supposed to be grim-dark. While there can be romance and relationships, don't take it too far (You know what I mean.) This also means don't act like the world is in a state of super-happy-fun-time, because it isn't.
4. To enter in, Fill out the Character sheet below and message it to me.
5. Don't go overboard with swearing.
6. No Alicorns, Changelings, or Crystal Ponies.
7. NO KILLING WITHOUT REASON
8. While there is fighting in this RP, don't kill off a character without the owner's permission, and don't get too detailed with it. A little blood is fine, but don't get into gore.

Short Bio: Black Widow lead a fairly sad life before the apocalypse. She never knew her parents, and was constantly bullied in her foalhood.
Her adult life was more liveable, she met the love of her life, and a child with her, and led a mostly normal life.
When the apocalypse came, she lost her wife and child to the disease. She chooses to take out her current frustration on ponies and Half-Minds alike, so whether she got infected or not, it'd probably just make her more creative.
