Those fucking things have to die. They killed your mom, your dad, your brother. They killed your partner. Zombies killed your dog. The time for cowering behind barricades is over. You've got nothing left to live for, except kill zed. Maybe you tell yourself you do it to safeguard future generations or to ensure that the American way of life isn't snuffed. Some days, it's even true. But really, you do it for revenge. Each time an HRV-positive shambler's head explodes, you smile.
You typically wear biker's leathers, helmet, and gloves, and you strap on a utility belt to carry your ammo and other needful things.
Eradicating zombies is something anyone can get behind or be motivated by circumstance to undertake. That said, those who choose Hunts Zombies as a focus are usually vectors.
Clothing, riding leathers (light armor), motorcycle helmet, leather gloves, morphine for yourself "just in case," and $300.
You disable (or completely remove) the zombie's arm, which keeps it busy for one round as it figures out how to attack with its other arm and mouth.
The zombie's head nearly comes off, which confuses it for a round as its head lolls. In subsequent rounds, the difficulty of the zombie's attacks and defenses is modified by one step to its detriment.
When tracking, looking for, interacting with, or hiding from zombies, the difficulty of the task is decreased by one step.
You inflict 3 additional points of damage when fighting zombies.
Zombies bite, spit, claw, or use more frightening forms of attack. You are trained in one type of defense of your choice.
Normally, if an attack would reduce a zombie's health to 0, it does so only if the number rolled in the attack was even; otherwise, the zombie is reduced to 1 point of health instead. But the Stay Down ability lets you ignore this rule. It doesn't matter if your attack roll is even or odd-only whether you hit the zombie. Stay Down also disables the healing abilities that some zombies possess.
Choose one type of attack in which you are not already trained: light bashing, light bladed, light ranged, medium bashing, medium bladed, medium ranged, heavy bashing, heavy bladed, or heavy ranged. You are trained in attacks using that type of weapon.
When two or more foes attack you at once in melee, you can use them against each other. The difficulty of your attack rolls against them is reduced by one step.
The difficulty of all your defense rolls to avoid zombie attacks is decreased by one step.
Choose one type of attack: light bashing, light bladed, light ranged, medium bashing, medium bladed, medium ranged, heavy bashing, heavy bladed, or heavy ranged. You are trained in attacks using that type of weapon. If you're already trained in that type of attack, you instead become specialized in that type of attack.
GM Intrusions: A horde of zombies appears at the end of the street. The zombie gets back up again. The zombie bites your ankle in an unbreakable jaw clamp. Hands smash through the wall and pull you through.
