Fallout: The Mont [OOC/Open]

[Dernland]

NS Nation Name:Dernland
Character Name: David Harris
Appearance:

Age: 28
Gender: Male
Occupation: New Canaanite Missionary, Currently residing with the Lost Souls tribe

Skills: As with all New Canaanites he is very skilled in the care and use of his weapons, is fairly persuasive and charismatic, but doesn't impose. Has lost sight of his original purpose, instead focusing on making the Mont a better place, and if that means a few more dead Raiders, so be it. Has no qualms about killing anything that threatens the Tribe, and encourages the Lost Souls to take up arms in self defense.
Weaknesses: A bit naive to be honest, despite his no tolerance policy for Raiders and aggressive Tribals, he trusts too easily, so anyone who is not an overt or obvious threat can slip by him. He also doesn't know about the destruction of New Canaan, if someone were to inform him it would likely unbalance his mind. Caught pneumonia a year before and is still recovering, running for extended periods is unadvised.
Equipment (Nothing newer than January 1, 1961):
Weapons: Two M1911 sidearms, AR-10 Rifle, Spear, Tomahawk.
Supplies: Various first aid equipment (bandages and the like), a dozen stimpaks, several pouches of healing powder, Xander Rood and Broc Flower (both of which he grows in the Tribe and taught the Locals how to utilize).
Armor: Wears light metal armor during battle, wraps his head with a shemagh.

Likes: Peace, freedom of choice, bringing justice upon those who deserve it, unconditionally helping.
Dislikes: Slavery, loss of the right to choose, murder.
Fears: That he won't be strong enough to protect the innocent of the tribe.

Biography (Must be 2 Paragraphs): Born in New Canaan, sent to be a missionary in the East. Made his way to the Mont and was mortally wounded in a fight with some raiders, though they were not so lucky. Saved by Lost Souls tribesmen. Dedicated his life from that point to keeping them safe, as they were pacifists and would not protect themselves. WIP

Would an Enclave Remnant work? All that remains of his power armor is a busted helmet that he just keeps in memory. No energy or plasma weapons either, just an old man trying to get by and hope that those who hate the Enclave don't find out his past.

Keep in mind that the Enclave was destroyed twenty years ago, and that the helmet is likely pretty damned heavy. But go ahead, surprise me

Yeah, the helmet will be useless. It's just something he keeps that reminds him of "the good ol' days." Sorta like the Remnants in NV. I'll try to have the app up soon.

Keep in mind, there is someone apping as a ex-BoS member. So you could get outed very fast if you are still using that helmet.

NS Nation Name: The Honorable Tay-Tay
Character Name: Rommel
Appearance: Caucasian, black hair, scruffy beard, 6'1, 200 lbs,
Age: 43
Gender: Male
Occupation: Scavanger, farmer, hunter, gatherer, mercenary, adventurer, ect

Skills: Jack of all trades
Weaknesses: Master of none
Equipment: Battle Rifle, army fatigues, heavy leather chest plate and medium leather arms and legs. 48 .308 rounds, three stimpacks, two cans of pork and beans, three tatos, two cobs of corn, a bottle of purified water and a canteen of unpure water, laser pistol and 3 charged micro fusion cells, bandolier Bow and arrow, arrow sheath, 16 arrows (Rommel usually never has all of this at once on him, and instead specializes his choice of weapons to his mission.)

Likes: The sun-set, working, caps
Dislikes: Uni, laziness
Fears: Starving

Biography (Must be 2 Paragraphs): Born in the Uni into a poor family, Rommel would only have one name. His father scavanged and helped tend to the farm and his mother farmed and raised the kids in their little pice of land in a hamlet just outside of the big city. Eventually Rommel would grow old enough to pass as old enough to enlist in the Uni military, and at 15, he was sworn in as a private in the Uni Army. He sent his caps home to his family while taking a plate away from the table for his mother.

Rommel excelled in his service, being an expert rifleman and a good leader. He soon found himself in charge of a team, and then a squad, and then he found himself as a platoon sergeant at the age of 22. He fought tribals and raiders for years, but one day his platoon was sent to Rommel's home hamlet when the community went silent. When they got there it was gruesome. The house's and shanties had been burned down, and the bodies of every person were layed face down on the Main Street and scorched.

There were no survivors, but a traveling caravaner was able to evade the raiders that did this. They pointed the platoon in the right direction and Rommel would lead his band of 22 soldiers on a crusade across the countryside. They killed every raider, gangster, and any mean looking tribal they stumbled across as they marched through the woods. After a month the platoon had lost three men, used most of it's ammo, and had confirmed around 100 kills. Rommel was a hero for this, but he was empty inside.

After a few years he found himself as a company commander, and he moved on with his life. He would continue the rest of his years in the service giving orders and assigning missions. He retired at 39 and moved away from the Uni. He lived amongst the peaceful tribes, learning their skills, watching as they came and went, as they went from peace to war. He has found himself in the Lost Souls tribe, as a hunter and gatherer, as well as a farm hand.

Really, Sarejo. His only skill is Jack of All Trades. And his only weakness is a Master of None..... those are not valid skill or weakness.

[The Valyria Empire]

Not being a master of anything is not what I would describe as a weakness, being good at everything is a strength.

If anything, he should have like really shit luck. Yet somehow due to his skills, he keeps surviving or something. I have to agree with Theyra on this.

[Sarejo]

Look, I know why those are weak descriptions, and I'm going to ask him to elaborate more, but I also trust him. So the acceptance stands for now, but I also do want Tayner to elaborate.

Cool, this looks badass. One question, are we allowed to create new factions? Within reason ofc, that wouldn't significantly impact the power dynamics of the RP.

NS Nation Name: The Traansval
Character Name: F. Pegahmagabow
Appearance:

Age: 23
Gender: Male
Occupation: Sniper for the Mounties

Skills: Precision Marksmenship, Scouting, Trailblazing, Medicine, Survival, Melee.

Biography: F. (For no one knows his true first name, only that he goes by its Initial) came from a family who had a long, long line of service to the Canadian Nation, with one of his ancestors being the famous Francis Pegahmagabow, who served as one of the best snipers of the First World War. When the bombs fell F's family had safe passage into their local vault, due their service in the Army. F. had spent his life inside that vault, he was born and raised in that vault by the sons of the sons of those who first entered the vault. He lived there, surrounded by family and friends, that is until it was opened, and the inhabitants were slaughtered by the raiders and ghouls of the wasteland. The now grown F. witnessed it as he hid in the vents, watched his friends and family die before him. He escaped, taking his fathers old kit that he'd use in the Canadian Army under the US Command, and set out into the wastes. His sense of Canadian Nationalism eventually brought him to join up the Mounties, and he's been serving with them as a Scout and Marksmen for most of his time out of the vault. Recently, he'd volunteered to join up with the Mountie expedition to the Mont.

1. I thought i did, my bad
2. Oh, well then i'll change it
3. Its a First Nation Name, his family was from the Wasauksing First Nation, whose lands lie inside Canada. I say "Whose lands lie inside Canada" because the situation between Natives and the Canadian Government over land is hotly contested. But anyway, men from this nation and the many others in Canada have and do currently serve in the Canadian Military and Government positions, although their definatly a minority.
4. Bad Allergy, one sip and his throat inflammes and cuts of his breathing passages
5. Well it was two meanings; the First is that he has little experience with em, only with his Fathers rifle which he would shoot at the Vault Firing range. The Second is that his role as a Sniper makes him vulnerable to anyone who gets mid to close range with a Automatic Weapon
6. Well i'm basing this character off one of my FNV Builds, and in the game i couldn't fit his full name so i just did F. Pegahmagabo
7. Ehh, give me a little time, i'm quite tired right now

Wait before you change the last two, we don't know from Sarejo yet if you should change things. Also, for another weakness you can add Lactose Intolerance since he is allergic to milk. Personally, I don't mind mysterious characters who only use their first name (as I believe abstract characters can make for some of the better ones).

Well actually he doesn't use his First name, thats the point. He just uses his last name and first Initial

And also when i said i could just change those last two, i meant if the OP said i had to.

And Lactose Intolerance is a condition where the body cannot fully process the sugar in Dairy Productions, F.'s problem is that Milk causes a Allergic reaction that can kill him very quickly via inflammation of his throat. Those are two very different things.

Can confirm, lactose intolerance and a milk allergy are different.
One involves a bad digestive reaction to all forms of dairy after childhood, while the other involves anaphylaxis from bovine milk and dairy.

Yes indeed. I kind of got this from a friend of mine who had a Milk allergy, and kept getting mad when people said he was Lactose Intolerant

Alright. I mistyped on name thing, meant to say first initial but my hands typed something else it would seem.

Neat to know about the milk allergy. Hadn't known there was a difference.

NS Nation Name: New Grestin
Character Name: Walter Deckard
Appearance (Direct Link Preferred):
Age: 32
Gender: Male
Occupation: Adventurer

Skills:

• Locksmith - Living in an oppressive Vault, not to mention surviving for most of his adult life in the Waste, has honed Deckard's lockpicking skills to a tee, making him an exceptional asset in for theft and B&E.
  
  
• Chemist - Access to an actual education in the Vault allowed him to learn many ins and outs of developing chems, particularly in creating recipes that aren't nearly as deadly as those found in the Wasteland.
  
  
• Robotics Expert - With many Robco products available in the Vault and trying to kill him in the wastes, Walt became well versed in the ins and outs of bending robots to his will.
  
  
• Hacker - In a similar vein to his skills with robotics, Walt also picked up on how to crack most Robco model computers, allowing him to access most computers with relative ease if he can guess the password correctly.

Weaknesses:

• Physically Weak - Walter is a computer geek in every sense of the word, and with that comes the issue of being physically weak, at least compared to others. While he might be able to hold his own against a Mole Rat, he can't exactly go toe-to-toe with a Super Mutant.
  
  
• Pre-War Idealism - Walter, having been raised in a Vault, was often subject to the optimism of the Pre-War era. Raised on old movies and anti-communist propaganda, he's often found his ideal of helping rebuild the wasteland at odds with his own survival.
  
  
• Wild Wasteland - Deckard, despite his best efforts, regularly ends up involved in bizarre adventures and incidents across the Wasteland. Most notably, his most recent adventure landing him in the Mont. Strange things seem to follow him constantly.

Equipment (Nothing newer than January 1, 1961):

• AER9 Laser Rifle
• .223 Pistol
• Tire Iron
• Pip-Boy 2000
• Binoculars
• Backpack
• Medical Supplies
• Microfusion Cells (x24)
• .223 Ammunition (x59)

Biography:

Born in Vault 14 to Alan and Jennifer Deckard, Walter showed himself as a tech prodigy early in life. The Vault, with its access to pre-war technology, fostered in him a love of computers and robotics. He would disassemble and rebuild computers, even reprogramming some of the vault Protectrons, much to the chagrin of the Overseer. It wasn't until Walter was sixteen that he, and the rest of the Vault, learned the reality of their safe refuge. The Overseer had died of a stroke mere months before, and, as Vault-Tec was long gone, it was decided that a new overseer would be elected. Walter's father, Alan, was able to win, and soon he discovered the terrible reality of their vault. The lower levels, which were normally inaccessible, were found to be filled with thousands of guinea pigs. The previous Overseer had been keeping them sated for some time, but continuous exposure to radiation had mutated the creatures into carnivorous monsters. They quickly overwhelmed the Vault security and Walter, along with a few others, fled into the Wasteland.

It quickly became apparent that civilization was not as destroyed as they initially thought. Most of the Vault dwellers were quickly picked up by a local patrol from the New California Republic. Walt had never actually asked his parents where the vault was located, so it came as somewhat of a shock to find out they'd been living in Nevada this whole time. After spending a few months running Caravan security, Walt decided to strike out into the wasteland as an adventurer.

After being arrested by agents from Caesar's Legion, Walt was promptly thrown back across the Hoover Dam after convincing them that he was actually a double agent. This turned out to be rather convenient, as mere days later the Second Battle of the Hoover Dam began. Walter never saw the aftermath, but rumors about an NCR general being thrown off the Dam weren't exactly encouraging. He fled the Mojave, taking a brief detour through Zion Canyon and heading further North. A close call in Denver, as well as a run-in with a roving army of Super Mutants, and Walter had finally escaped the Southwest.

He finally settled in the Commonwealth, having found work scavenging old Institute equipment and scouting the Northern territory known as the Mont. The Commonwealth, much like the Capitol Wasteland, was kind of shithole too. Between the Brotherhood of Steel, the Raiders and the Minutemen, it seemed most people were more concerned with shooting people than anything else. There was, thankfully, no lack of work, though. The Minutemen were even nice enough to send him to settlements that needed his help. It would be an ill-fated expedition to the Mont that brought him to the region, as it was either that or working on electronics in some shithole called Fah Habah. As is typical, Walter's entire crew were violently murdered by Raiders, leaving him trapped in the Mont, broke and tired.
