I'm a radio DJ, contemporary music pays my fucking bills lol. I have nothing against it.

So no Johnny Cash?

I already played some Johnny Cash with Crawdaddy actually. Anything before 1965 is fair game.

Did you? I didn't catch it. Darn. My musical timeline isn't good, but I'm gonna ask, any good Elvis songs?

There might be a few Elvis songs that re blues and meet the timeline.

As someone relatively unfamiliar with the Fallout universe, what kind of tone will this roleplay have? Is the focus more on survival or action?

That depends on how you want to play your character or faction.

Character Name: Makai Butler

Appearance: Makai. Around six foot, 180 pounds. Wearing faded khaki jeans, military boots, a black t-shirt and a jacket something like Denzel Washington's in the Book of Eli.

Equipment: Backpack something like this, a belt knife, a Swiss army knife, a hatchet, a .38 special magnum with 17 bullets, a week's worth of food/water, a tarp, and a bandanna.

Skills: Agile and quick. Good common sense. Good brawler both with his fists and his knife. Literate. Great sense of direction. Resilient.

Weaknesses: Bad shot. Too trusting.

Personality: Makai is a pretty alright guy. He can be arrogant sometimes, but generally he has a laid back demeanor and likes to help out. He isn't one for acting tough and tries to keep his chill with everyone. Makai isn't good at resolving conflicts but he generally never starts them.

Motives: Makai just wants to survive and enjoy himself the best he can.

Backstory: WiP :(.

RP examples: Give me a moment and I'll pull a couple up, I just recently (15 minutes ago, haha) revived this account.

Hrm. I remember you from somewhere.
Where must we go, we who wander this wasteland, in search for our better selves?
In Egypt's sandy silence, all alone,
Stands a gigantic Leg, which far off throws
The only shadow that the Desert knows:—
"I am great OZYMANDIAS," saith the stone,
"The King of Kings; this mighty City shows
"The wonders of my hand." The City's gone,
Nought but the Leg remaining to disclose
The site of this forgotten Babylon.

We wonder, and some Hunter may express
Wonder like ours, when thro' the wilderness
Where London stood, holding the Wolf in chace,
He meets some fragment huge, and stops to guess
What powerful but unrecorded race
Once dwelt in that annihilated place.

Republic of Coldwater wrote:Nationstates Name: Republic of Coldwater

Faction name: Lord's Rangers

Faction Leader: Ambrose Winfield (Will make application)

Faction numbers: The Lord's Rangers are a small, but effective force of 150 personnel. 100 of the people are Combatants, namely Rangers, who are equipped with repeaters and a revolver for good measure, and wear their distinctive hats, leather armor and rebreathers. The Rangers are small in number, and usually operate in two men fireteams, where they undertake vigilante justice and their other goals. The other 50 people are 30 engineers, who fix and produce weapons, 12 medical personnel, who tend to the wounds, and 8 religious personnel, who are tasked with preaching to the other personnel, and also to spread Christianity.

Faction Bio:
From Vault 88 came a group of people who were children of military veterans and paranoid anti-government religious fanatics, Vault 88 had a precarious history, with violent power struggles, and goals over what can be done. In the midst of the malaise in the region, a group of 22 men left the Vault in search of a better place to live in. Equipped no more than a few repeaters and revolvers, the men ventured out into the irradiated wasteland. In the beginning, they dwindled in numbers, mainly from the unfamiliar and fearsome fauna of the mutated swampland, but a few raiders and other forces.

Soon, the men of Vault 88 arrived in a area in what was once a Prairie. Needing to settle down, they did, and used the wood from the forest to build their small settlement. Soon, more joined into the small settlement, and many were allowed in, but those who didn't convert to Christianity in time were killed. The town was then named after the third book of the Bible, Leviticus.

Leviticus now acts as the main hub of the Lord's Rangers, but also as a home for many unaffiliated individuals, and from here, the Lord's Rangers act out Vigilante Justice, and also try their best to spread Christianity to the people of Louisiana.

Starting Location: A small town named Leviticus, 50 miles west of Defiance in the Prairie

Goals: Be a force of justice and law and order for the people of Louisiana, Instill Christianity to the populace, Wipe out any other religions


Character Name: Ambrose Winfield

Appearance:
Image


Equipment: Leather Armor .45-70 Repeater .357 Revolver Breathing Mask Hat

Skills: Marksmanship, Hunting, Living off the land, Leadership

Personality: Ambrose is best described as an ambitious, somewhat naive man with a medium temper. He is known by his men for being a dedicated person who would go to great lengths to accomplish his goals, and would dream quite big, which has been to his service and detriment in the past.

Motives: Ambrose was indoctrinated with Christian Supremacism, and as a result, his main motive for running the Lord's Rangers is to spread Christianity and to wipe out or convert what he refers as "Infidels", which are those who adhere to other religions.

Backstory: Ambrose Winfield was born in the sectional Vault 88. One side were the descendants of military veterans, and the other side were descendants of religious fanatics, which were constantly at odds with each other. Winfield was born to the religious sect, and as a result, he was indoctrinated with Dominionism and militant Christian supremacy, and was known for fighting with non-christians in his childhood. Despite his contempt for non-christians, the precariousness of the Vault made him resent the Vault even more. As a result, he mustered some 25 men, and on one eerily quiet dawn, his group ditched the Vault, and went to the swampland.

In the beginning, Winfield's men withered as a result from the seemingly unpredictable fauna in the region. Soon, his men went down to 12 people, and by then, they reached a prairie, which they found suitable land for settling down. They took wood from the forests and constructed a city out of it. Soon, the town grew, and most were conscripted into the Lord's Rangers, a new organization founded by Winfield to instill Christianity to the people of Louisiana and undertake Vigilante justice. Now, the town is sized at 220 men, 150 of which are members of the Lord's Rangers, and it is one of the most religious towns in the area, having a large church, and being named after Leviticus, the third book of the Holy Bible.
