About

In 1812, following the Great Fire of Moscow, thousands of corpses rose to life and began attacking the living. The plague quickly swept across Europe and eventually reached London, England. The British Army fought to defend the city, but most fell in battle. The survivors have gathered at the top of the dome of St. Paul's Cathedral, preparing to make their way to Westminster.

The Undead

The corpses that attack you and your party. Shamblers, which swarm in groups, are usually in an advanced state of decay and are the most common type. They will try to eat you alive and are slightly tougher than Runners. Runners are fast and threatening, having been recently infected. They have red eyes and will pounce to tear at your throat; they are fragile enough to die from a single saber strike. Bombers (often called 'powder kegs') carry torches and gunpowder barrels; they ignite themselves when near humans. They are weaker than Runners and explode instantly when hit. Zappers (often called 'sappers') carry axes to wound people and appear wearing military uniforms; they take about two musket shots to kill. Finally, Shambler Hussars (often called 'cavalry') charge with heavy sabers to inflict deep cuts. They appear with heavily damaged faces and are as tough as Zappers.

NPCs

A Scottish soldier encountered after the shop in the mid-section of London asks you to cover him, but is shot and killed by snipers in the tower while running. The snipers will fire at you and your party, so be careful not to get hit. Finally, a wounded sapper lying in the brewery during the late section of London asks you to set fire to the city and protect what remains in Westminster before he passes away.

Leading the way past the brewery I see someone over there.

As the party leaves the brewery area, they see a figure collapsed against a wall at the end of the empty street. Dark red blood flows from the figure's side, pooling on the stone floor.

Waking up and seeing Guest's party I beg of you! Coughs Start the fire! It's not about saving London anymore, we have to wipe them out! Knock over the barrels. Spread it as far as you can. It'll catch easily, and the fire will start. Groaning in pain The noise drew them in, and now all my comrades are dead. I think I'm next... You all might have better luck. Please! Protect whatever is left in Westminster! With those final words, he slowly passes away.
