Jenny Wick

Cross posting from the Dayz sub as it doesn't get many hits.


Had this char alive for over a week now so i decided she needed some style a couple of days in and a mission, the mission was to turn her into Jenny Wick, Johns long lost sis



Original fresh spawn Jenny







Jennys first kill, two guys i drove past in a car, saw them turn around so i parked around the corner and managed to bump into them creeping down to where i had parked. Nabbed one in a pistol shootout and the other guy bolted.








Went for a mini inland run and spied a few dudes but just watched, never opened fire.








Back down the coast, searching for burlap, lapping at night.




...not for long.






After getting decently geared and spying only freshies Jenny decided to leave the coast and head inland for good. Left a small tent stashed in a forest with ammo and supplies if i ever head down again.







Picked up a Lada that made the journey a lot quicker.



Aaaaaand trashed it in some trees at night. It seems Jenny can't handle a wheel like big bro John.

Getting friendly with the deers at night up near Tisy.







The journey so far - Spawn at Kamyshovo and leg it all the way to the mil tents past Kamenka followed by a jaunt back up the coast and then inland to Staroye and Guglovo then back down to Kamenka again.From there i headed inland after setting the tent, Pavlovo, Windy Mountain, Drozhino, Zeleno, Sosnovka, Myshinko, the Western wildlands of the map, Lopatino, Vavilovo, NWAF, Sinistok and then finally Tisy Mil base. Here i found a guys tent stashed up against a building at the shooting range. I raided some of his loose ammo for my AK101 and stole a full mag as well. At that point i was carrying a sporter with a scope for zeds, animal kills and spying, with the AK for combat and a silenced Glock. As luck would have it i came across an M4 at the base so i juggled my options and decided to keep my fully kitted AK. I dropped the Sporter and jogged the M4 back to his tent, ran back and grabbed the Sporter and then dumped that in his tent as well, i was over double carrying. This guys tent makes a comeback later




I had decided Jenny Wick needed to be clothed in fully black to fit character, the M65 jacket i was wearing in the above pic i somehow dumped when juggling gear in the rain and couldn't find it. The next couple of sessions was aimed at going full Jenny Wick. I grabbed a tent at NWAF and went and found a nice little spot to call my own.


Cow chasing at night.








Hiding my truck behind the abandoned Fat machinery. Battery taken out.





Morning from near my tent location. Time to do the NWAF/Tisy run and possibly get some heli hunting in as well.

Heading to NWAF and a quick heli find.






Down into the tents and while inside one i was unsure if some footsteps i heard close by where a zed or a person. I pulled into the back of the tent just as someone piped up and asked if i wanted to join their group. Now, nobody is ever friendly at mil tents so by group i guess he meant six feet under. I could hear him directly at the back of the tent so i took a chance and legged it out and around the corner. I sat and watched him creep around, waiting to see what he was armed with and only said a simple 'Yo'







I then spotted a second guy appear from another tent off to my left so i was up and running just as he fired, i managed to keep dodging while the first guy gave chase. Pretty crap zoom but you can make out the second guy pinging at me, pretty sure he had an SKS.







The guy chasing me had an axe in hand so i turned and blipped him with half a mag and then shouldered my AK and legged it to a vantage point up near the heli. The second guy had lost me so i settled in keeping focused on the dead guy to see if his mate came to grab his gear. Dead guy is zoomed.





The shooter came back for a look at his mate a minute later but a bunch of shots around him had him leg it back into the tents, i knew i had minimal chance of a hit but when bullets are zapping around you running is always the best option






I hung around for another minute or so and then booked it up to Tisy.

This journey to Tisy had Jenny Wick fully fleshed out. Daytime cruisy look and going full assassin look.






I ended up heading back to old mates tent for a look to see how he was faring... and stole back the M4 i had left there a few days ago I decided i wanted a 60 round mag option for short range trips and i will use the AK101 with long and short range scopes for longer jaunts. So back to the tent to horde the loot, grab a feed and settle in for the night.


I managed to keep Jennys original headscarf (top right in tent) from when she was but an apple eating freshie on the coast as a keepsake of more peaceful times.








Guns guns guns! The VSS Vintorez i jagged at Tisy, going to be a mission getting ammo for it as it only spawns at Russian heli crashes. MP5 was courtesy of a cop shop and the PM73 was in a cop car. The Makarov came from the coast and was the gun Jenny made her first kill with.







Once i get another black M65 jacket i will have a nice new full change of clothes for Wicks persona.






Big week for Jenny so time to kick back by the fire.





But you can only let your guard down for so long so it is best to always be prepared...





Jenny Wick, always watching...

To make sense of it all, this is about as close as i can get to my run without criss crossing places where i have backtracked or gone to multiple times.

Wow - interesting. Nice report.

I don't play this game, but I do enjoy AARs from it. Something fascinating about the whole thing and how people act and interact in such an environment. Thanks for posting.

Interaction has a few levels in DayZ. At the coast you can generally get along with most ..except the few who want to box. On a full pop server it isn't unusual to be able to form a small band and get a good adventure going. The further inland you are the more it becomes a 50/50 of he who fires first wins but you can sometimes end up with a travelling companion. Mil bases are fire and forget




After a short sleep and some sizzling cow steaks Jenny decides to head out for a predawn run, the dark is where she thrives.












First stop a Russian Mil Mi-8, hoping for some of that elusive Vintorez ammo...but no joy.












After a while watching the airfield and searching another chopper Jenny heads back to base for a snack and a drink just as dawn starts to break.








Mid morning and Jenny gears up for a longer run. Tisy base to try and scavenge some more ammo and take a look around the top corner of the map for signs of any other survivors. This will also be a map making expedition of sorts as she will be venturing into some unknown territory. Weapon of choice this time will be the M4A1 with coupled 30 round stanags, Glock 19 will be her backup and of course her trusty axe for the infected. Clear sunny day with a strong breeze constantly blowing.











Tisy shows some activity as wolves howl in the distance, she knows somebody is at this moment running in fear for their lives. She moves in slowly and searches the perimeter, waits and watches a while and then heads in and picks up some ammo and clothing. Doing a slow run around the base she finds that the tent were she had previously swapped out some ammo for guns has been moved by it's owner, this will be something to keep an eye open for in the forests. Moving into the base proper she hears the wolves howl again, closer this time so she ducks into a barracks and closes the door, weapon out and ready. Footsteps run past outside followed by the rush of animal feet and growls of several wolves. She moves to a room and looks outside...









Wolves and infected, is that all? Maybe the survivor is holed up close by like she is, she moves back to the door and risks opening it.

Time to sort out the wolves and get outta here.








Mmmmmm, guts.







No sign of any life at Tisy after gunning down some wolves and infected. Jenny makes a break for it and heads Northwest. All hilly forest country with one little settlement stashed down in a valley, no life there, just dried blood on the floor boards in the bedroom. She does pick up a Winchester rifle and scope which wil lcome in handy and add to the gun collection. She heads up to a tower on top of the highest hill and gets her bearings.







Moving slowly down the hill and winding through the forests, deer the only movement spotted as the bust across a small clearing ahead of her. Further down she hears a low rumbling, far off. Heading towards the noise she recognises it as an engine, revving up and down. Coming upon a bus she keeps to the treeline and moves along beside it. There is a guy at the wheel, his head covered in grass, moving the truck grudgingly back and forth with blown tyres. She takes a chance and moves out of cover, AK101 at the ready as always, and shouts over the noise of the bus 'You need a hand?'







There is no reply as he looks at Jenny, stands up and gets off the bus, a crossbow moving into his hands. The AK shatters the silence and he goes down without a sound.







Jenny sighs, moves quickly to check his condition, quite dead, and then hurriedly checks his gear.








He has nothing Jenny needs save a couple of hot cans of drink and a CZ61 Scorpion smg that she will probably never use, always nice to have a trophy though. She decides to call the run over and heads back to base to dump her now full backpack. Once back at her tent she realises she is rapidly running out of room and needs some more storage space. A short jaunt to the nearest village should secure some 44 gal drums to stash some gear. Who knew you could get overloaded with goodies in an apocalypse?


Running with drums keeps you fit!









Sh/t just got real.

Haha - so was the grasshead an infected or another human player?

After the excitement of the chainsaw find Jenny hoes down some wolf steaks..chewy but not bad, washes them down with an orange and some pipsi and has a bloated siesta. It's been a rather adventurous day so far but she has itchy feet when she awakes, full moon again. Gear up, clean the M4, reload the mags, head out. Moving South this time.








Halfway to Pushtoska she comes across another downed heli in a field, this one has been stripped clean though. She stakes it out for a few minutes and surprising even herself slams down a can of tuna and a spite, maybe Wolf meat is like chinese take away in that you are only satisfied for a small time.








Whilst thinking about chinese takeaway she hears the roar of a car and snaps out of it noticing a sedan bouncing across the fields headed directly for her with a bunch of infected giving chase!










She unshoulders the M4 and sights it, sure she has been spotted but then the car veers away heading across the field past the crashed chopper. Jenny is up and running keeping an eye on the car as it piles along at full noise in the general direction of Pustoshka.










Jenny moves into full Wick mode and sprints for Pustoshka, guessing they will stop for supplies, she makes for the Northern end so she can sight down the main street. Adrenaline is pumping but it is contained as she pulls up behind a beat up old van, looking down the street she sees two guys standing by the car, engine still running but it appears they have hit a building in the dark and damaged something.








She settles her breathing and then pulls out from behind the van, sights in on the guy closest and lets off five single shots.







For reference this is night time firing (not this engagement)







He goes down and she pulls behind the van, she watches as the second guy runs to the front of the car and ducks down. Jenny is up, puts a burst into the car seeing flashes spark along its length and then she sprints around the eastern side of the town, working quickly to a position on the southern side of the car. On her way up she has heard the car revving but it sounded like it wasn't going anywhere. Once in position behind a fence she can see it has moved slightly but the tyres are shredded. From here she is fairly sure the first guy is still down. Infected are all over the vehicle and Jenny settles in to wait for the other guy to appear.








After a couple of minutes of no movement Jenny moves slowly to another vantage point and spies the other guy, he had moved out of cover from behind a bush, weapon in hand and then quickly moves back in. She watches and wait for movement.







Seeing nothing and fearing he is flanking she moves again to a wall facing the front of the car. He will definitely break cover ..and he does, straight towards Jenny. He throws himself unsuspectingly onto her M4 as he rounds the corner of her wall with infected in tow. A burst puts him down, another bunch of rounds for the infected and it is over. Two more dead. On closer inspection the he is a she, not what Jenny expected. She had a Steyr, Jenny knows how dangerous they can be in the hands of the right lady and moves aside any remorse she feels. She shoulders it and moves down to the car.









Looks grisly, this guy is stuck under the car. As far as Jenny can make out, the female has tried to move the car and pounded her male friend into the pavement. Jenny jumps in the car and moves it just enough so she can check the body for gear. He has nothing she needs, and what he does have is trashed.






She decides to call it a night and heads back at a slow pace to her tent. Wondering if these two were just friends, a couple maybe or even family? She never checks for identities, she just knows that she has to be the first to fire and the less of everyone else there is ...makes her survival that much easier.

The continuing journey. Five player kills so far.







Gear collected so far, somehow i lost the Winchester which was annoying, need to be more careful swapping out guns in the forests. Steyr and the other M4 not shown as they are on Jenny.




Starting to get paranoid about getting raided, i need to stash some barrels around and split up the loot i think.

A player you did use to get the name of the player when you checked pulse but for now it defaults to no unit for some reason.

Not much about today, left camp to go for a general look around and to see if there was any carnage left at Pustoshka from the other nights action.



Cows down at the creek having a drink, Jenny has all the fresh steak she need and was happy to simply watch them dawdle about for a bit. She picks up a Winchester left in a deer stand near here which was a nice find.







Another picked clean heli wreck near Vybor, the air force must be broke.







No sign of anything in Pushtoska, bodies were gone so either the infected dragged them off or they were carved up by other desperate survivors. Cruised into Stary Sobor, i don't really enjoy creeping around towns during the day, too many eyes.











Peering into the abandoned military encampment at Stary, highest chance of running into somebody.






Leaving Stary behind Jenny hits up a few deer stands and then pulls up until dark in the forest for a chill out.







Overslept after a feed and getting to comfy listening to the birds and bugs of the forest, must be about 4am before she sets on her way again. Feeling fresh in the crisp morning air and head towards base. At the moment Jenny is North of Stary and heads West towards Vybor. Something looms ahead in the bad light, a truck? Bus? Closer inspection, a bus, rolled on its side by someone just off the road between Vybor and Stary. A quick look inside, nothing of use and no sign of bodies.













About a click further on she stops for a drink and spots something out away in a field between some trees. A set of wheels parked up on a dirt road.








Well worth a look. Jenny slowly works her way to the car, nice and quietly, stopping and listening. The mil base is close and whoever owns the car may be in there. She moves up to the car satisfied there is no one close by and has a quick look inside.








Its the goddamn apple man! Someone loves their fruit!







She grabs the M4 scope, ditches the crossbow and tries the ignition, fires first time. Slams home first and laps it out of there wondering if someone is listening to their now stolen apple cart as it heads off over the fields.








In retrospect she wonders if she should have hung around and tried to see if she could make a friend..or at least observe the apple man as he did whatever he does. She parks the car next to the trusty old digger and calls it, time to stash the Winchester and start thinking seriously about seperating her stash that has well outgrown her single tent.







That night she dreams of a madman covered in other peoples flesh and apples, running at her with an axe. She wakes up in a sweat, sits outside at the edge of the forest with her AK101 and spies down where she parked the car, it is gone. She sleeps no more that night.

Depressing..............

Not enough action or too many apples?

Nice job, Ajay!

Great AAR mate.
Keep them coming.

SD

Speaking of depressing. How is the in game music? Does it set the mood? Is there any?

AKs barking in the distance, wolves howling behind the tree line, and shallow breathing from hypothermia seem to be my DayZ soundtrack.
Maybe I did disable in-game music, I'll check.

Entertaining AAR by the way !

Cheers,
Slug

lol Sluggish Controls

There was in the mod but not in the SA. You don't really want mood music as you need to be able to hear people creeping up on you. The sound has come a long way now and the ambience is good so far, really puts you in the forest at night with owls, wind through the trees and insect noises or out in a sunny field with crickets and a nice fresh breeze.

Another quiet trip. Went for a quick run down to Green Mountain and Zelenogorsk for a look see, no action, plenty of infected. There are still people about as i came across a ruined backpack with some basic items in it and a rolled over truck near Zeleno. Weather was terrible so i headed back to base to wait it out.










And surprise surprise, checking over my gear at base and someone has visited. The only items taken were an exact replica of my clothing, no guns, no food, no ammo. They left theirs in exchange which is something i would have done, weird.







I set up another tent i had dragged back from Zeleno and left a message in it, hoping maybe we may make contact. Might be risky leaving my gear where it is but i want to see how it plays out.







Sat up just above my tent for a while seeing if any one came poking around but no joy. Crashed out under a tree and wondered if the visitor was encamped close by?

I bought DayZ because of you.. damn it!

I am enjoying it quite a lot though. I played Breaking Point (A free mod basically like DayZ) for years but it was abandoned and decided to replace it with DayZ. I have been pretty happy with it so far. It is much more difficult to survive in DayZ, finding food and water and crafting items is a challenge and the zombies are a lot more dangerous than in the other mods.

Nice You grabbed it at the right time when a lot has been done and it is looking really good. The next update will be the game changer with the player controller. Stay safe out there!



Just a run down to the coast for Jenny this time, decided to see if there is any life in the coastal cities and to grab some netting to make a complete ghillie suit.

Leaving base pre dawn, i found the sleeping spot of a cow herd, pic is super enhanced as it was near pitch black when i heard them shuffling around in the small valley. Was sort of calming just kicking back in a world of death and listening to these cows quietly low away the night.






A fairly uneventful journey all the way down to Cherno, feels weird being near and inside the bigger towns.





White Russian, yes please! Unfortunately no drinks were to be found.





Creeping around the Cherno International and was going to investigate the plane crash a bit closer when a person pops up and runs straight past me, fairly sure they didn't see me as i was crouched and unmoving when they appeared.














They were wearing exactly what i was, which made me think..was this the person who had raided my tent a while back or just coincidence? I decided to head the way they had headed and see if i could cut them off. I was going to set up in Balota but there is to many ways to approach the area and i might miss them.





So i settled on the thinnest strip of land along the coast which is between Komarovo and Kamenka, just under the lighthouse on the hill. If they were chasing netting there is plenty of boats on the coast here and maybe they might hit the mil base past Kamenka so this should be the way they would head if that is what they are chasing. Time for a quick feed and to get comfortable for what could be a decent wait.









After about thirty minutes of no joy i called it and headed back inland for a midday snooze. Plenty of netting found on my run along the coast so i can add a ghillie to the collection when i get back to camp.

Quick jaunt from base to grab some drinks and finally found my last burlap to make a ghille suit.

Heard the howl of wolves in the distance while i was looting some cars, being dark (pics have been lightened) it was creepy as sh/t so i took refuge in a bus and pulled out the AK and waited.






The howls got closer and i was unsure if they were following someone else or had picked up my scent, sure enough three wolves started circling the bus, i put one down outside and one charged inside. After a quick tussle i had him down and dead and then needed to bandage from a bite.























Took out the last one outside near his mate.






Wolf steaks tonight!







Further up the road was where i found the final burlap sack, beelined it instantly for base where i had another 9 sacksto make the ghille. The ghille headgear i had kept from my kill many weeks ago.














A face only a mother could love

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this! Good job, Ajay.

Cheers I've given her a rest for a bit, logged in twice and ran her down to the East Coast at Berezino to try and get a truck working so i could move camp. Haven't seen any more players but the truck had some gear in it so there are people around. Going to give her a run again soon
