Indeed, Fitz, feel free to enter Discussion. However, only one piece of armor is free, so you'll have to pay for either your lovely hat, or your lovely outfit :( Hehe.
Corerue, I believe that we do indeed have room...considering only two people have posted in Discussion. I thought we still had more. But, whatever. I look forward to what you can bring to the table!
Also, note to the ghouls: because the Succubus club is out-of-game, feel free to join in the RP there even if you want to be introduced elsewhere (like on the way to the Vault in the first adventure.

My knowledge of the Fallout games spans from the very beginning until present day New Vegas. My only issue is I can never stand being a bad guy, somehow being the Savior of the Wasteland is stuck in my head. :)
Favorite group is the BoS baby! I always seek them out for membership in each game. Of which that is why I loved Fallout Tactics, this was before Fallout 3+ but Fallout Tactics was one of my favorites, the movies stuck with me whenever I played the other games. Especially the very end...
New settlements spring up as land becomes fertile once again, with places of learning becoming the hubs of the fledgling civilization. A combination of old world science with new world wisdom paves the way to higher understanding and unity amongst the population. The new regime begins to expand across the wasteland absorbing towns and villages and quickly dispatching those who would halt progress. Soon the Brotherhood is protector to a string of settlements, as the Brotherhood's power grows so does it's hold on the wasteland but one question remains; what will happen when this young civilization encounters the original knowledge hording Brotherhood of Steel? The Scribes and Elders prepare for the meeting and hope to put differences in the past as the future of mankind hangs in the balance but that is a battle for another day and perhaps another hero.
It may take me sometime to patch together a character, so please bare with me. Working 12 hours a day is rough and I am in a few other games that are a bit slow at the moment. Once my character is done it'll be very easy to keep up with things, so hopefully I don't end up testing your patience. ^.^;
Despite being one of the youngest members in the BoS Kora was intelligent and very capable at utilizing and understanding the old technology brought into the BoS fort. He tried to access the archive's to expand his findings. Due to his limited experience, and lower rank, he wasn't allowed to work with much more then the lesser tech's. This also mean't that the archives remained far from his reach and halted his development until he was deemed ready by his betters to obtain the rank of Journeymen.
That was until he was one among many asked to step up into a higher position.
He accepted the position with gusto, using it to not only expand his knowledge of the BoS available tech but as a way to increase his rank so that he could hopefully access the archives. With the change in position came new duties as well and he found himself out on patrol more often then trying to peruse the library's archives. After a time his earlier purpose was forgotten, especially after he saw the depredation of marauding raiders and the destruction of a small settlement that fell under their savage assault.
When he saw what they had done to the children of the villagers, to the young women, something broke inside the Junior Paladin. A rage rose within him and from that moment on he swore to deal out swift and immediate justice to those that prayed on the weak. He turned his focus on training with energy weapons, namely laser weapons and rippers as they were the only tech he was allowed to touch at his current rank.
Kept it simple for now, will expand later but its bed time for me so sorry won't be able to reply for a bit. ;)

Oh this will be fun. Me and you. Lol.
we shall indeed. B-)
Kora fights much like a warhammer 40k space marine if your trying to picture him on the battlefield. Laser rifle blazing until he closes or the enemy closes with him, then he draws his chain sword and tears into their flesh. he is however young and reckless unlike our old legionaire. ;-)
i thought about selecting the prototype medical armor as a way to justify his ability to heal often. mechanical LoH lol.
| Darius Darkblade aka Legionare |
|

Yeah but my character doesnt dig the brotherhood and wait till I get my powerarmor working and get a powersword built I will show you spacemarine lol. For they shall feel not pain and know no fear.
Nah it will be good rp the tension between us. Just remember sell him out to the brotherhood and it will get ugly lol.
He does hate just doesnt think they are worthy. They are children playing with things they dont understand and have no right to in his mind. They neglect the responsibility they took up when they became the inheritors of the military. And job to help the people not to hide in bunkers til their stolen toys break.

@GM ArmadI will have my character concept fleshed out today.
Was the medical armor allowable or because its a specific type its no good to pick as a starting armor?
Mainly thought of it because it gives warnigns about on coming enemies and since it is possible it gives away Kora's position he uses it as a means to start a fight with raiders instead of avoiding confrontations as the BoS tends to do if they can.
His attitude doesn't win him any friends with the higher up but young junior paladins may be won over enough to follow his lead.
The armor also gave me a means of how he could Lay on Hands, I can just say since it is medical armor it has so many uses per day. ;)
Let me know if it isn't acceptable and I will got for regular Power Armor.
Second Question. Is the setting chosen yet? Is it a hombrew or familiar setting like IE Meagton and other F3 cities are going to be used~
I will ask more questions as they come up but those are the most pressing.
@Darius
It's going to be interesting when You and I meet as Kora will not care who you are so long as your not a raiding, pillaging, raping scumbag of the waste. If you were they were would be problems, some chainsaw and laser wounds to go with. Kora is Not fond of Raiders at all...
I'm sure the GM is gonna teach me a lesson but in the eyes of his particular chapter Kora is slowly becoming known more as a Loose Cannon and he may/may not be facing a coming judgement from his betters. This is something that will be in his background, whether or not it comes up in game will be up to the GM. But I am going to build Kora as a Scribe/Paladin. He will continue striving to gain access to higher tech for his one man war against the waste land.
Corerue

True, but Kora is a Junior Paladin in my mind, so i'm not so sure what he would or wouldn't know as the BoS, depending on the chapter, are sticklers for mind blowing amounts of protocols.
Kinda like I work. :P Oilfield, safety, paperwork, paperwork, safety, THEN work. >.>;
I only say he's a Junior because he is lvl 1 after all. ;) Can't be a BA Paladin or Knight just yet lol!
This is of course up to change from the GM. His world his rules and I can update to please. No matter what though i'm looking forward to the experience of meeting Darius!
Corerue

lol True! I look forward to meeting up with you and we'll see where we go from there. :)
Still working on getting Kora together. working 14's so time is either work, eating or sleeping. Slipping the books in and getting things together though~!
Had to drop the ripper for a knife so that I could afford a full suit of power armor, that is if i'm doing this correctly. Taking the costs off the sites you provided GM. I'm a bit limited in Ammo but I think I can make it work. ;)
I placed his stats in a way that made sense to me, it is all average but to me I saw the Brotherhood having Rigid Training and Medical programs for there people. So a lot of people receive the same training in terms of strength, dexterity and health monitoring. Since he was a scribe previously he is slightly stronger in terms of Int but because of his sudden slide into a violent and reckless disposition towards Raiders and other scum of the waste his wisdom is lacking.
Stats -
Str 14
Dex 14
Con 14
Int 16
Wis 10
Cha 14
As for Traits I picked some that both emphasize his work as a Scribe and his paranoia he's gained in the field as a Junior Paladin.
Rich Parents would be a bit of an abusive trait for this setting so I didn't select it. It would be useful for Ammo though lol!
Traits -
Reactionary
Mathematical Prodigy
For Equipment I have:
Knife - 20 Caps
Power Armor - Free
Power Armor Helmet - 110 Caps
I will work out the details on which once I here about whether the Medical armor was acceptable or not. ;)
Laser Rifle - Free
Microfusion Cells - 31x 3 caps = 93 Caps
Scribe Robes - 6 Caps
Consumables -
1x Pure Water = 20 caps
1x Apples, Fresh = 5 Caps
1x Rad X = 20 Caps
1x Stim Packs = 25 Caps
Total Caps = 300 Max for Paladin 299 used. 1 cap Left over.
I will have the rest of the character fleshed out by tomorrow :)

I'd like to submit a place as a wasteland archaeologist who studies Pre-war ruins, and also modern day anthropology. He/She (haven't decided) would be a former Follower of the Apocalypse, but has since become more independent and a total wasteland transient. I'd say definitely high CHA and INT, with DEX for combat jam.
I'd probably do human (delver or trekker), with a multi-class Alchemist (Mind Chemist, Vivisectionist)/Rogue (Scroll Scoundrel). Definitely a computer expert, as he/she would need access to such lovely pockets of information. I'd say this cat would rock a gnarly looking machete and a pistol. Let me know if you have room! I definitely enjoy the RP, but action is certainly a must (especially in Fallout). I'm well acquainted with most of the lore, so I think it'd be fun to play an unspoken archaeologist. I'd say his/her ultimate goal with his/her findings is to educate communities with history (maybe she even collects history as an independent contractor to bigger organizations: BoS, NCR, etc.). His curiosity is reason enough for him to be a part of any party.
I may have missed this info in an earlier post, but will you have a VATS type system? Like Called Shots? Just curious! Sounds like a lot of fun!
| Darius Darkblade aka Legionare |
|
|
The gm has said yes there will be a vats system. Also keep in mind giving up bombs may not be the best idea as they bypass dr....... as for scroll scoundrel im not familiar with it enough to provide you anything coherent. The chem specialist would be greatly appreciated as we seem to have most other crafts and roles covered we sdid however loose our chem guy. But your idea sounds awesome.

Still looking into the traits and I saw the notes on no one taking Vault Dweller, I don't mind doing it and making an interesting background as to why a Vault Dweller was picked up by the brotherhood if the Gm is okay with that. :) Because personally i've been having a difficult time deciding between the other templates. Mutie Killer or the Engineer one and Vault Dweller would be fun I think. ;)
What is included in that template or where can I see it?
| Wofguy |
|
|
The vault dweller template was scrubbed by the DM because no one chose it, and we are all going to be getting pip-boys first off anyways. You can still be a Vault Dweller, I think a few of us are, but you can pick something that will help for longer. You can look through the different ones we have chosen, and maybe pick something different, or not. Doesn't matter to much.

Deidre is kind, but has a very dark sense of humor. She is good at relating to many different kinds of people, as her time with the Followers gave her much exposure to the Waste. Rarely is she unhappy, often seeing the glass half-full, though she's not a manic.

He started to spend more time in the tech repair wards, repairing combat armor, power armor and a lot of the energy tech that he was allowed to touch. It was during this time when he had the opportunity to transfer into an even more active role. Junior Paladin. It sounded good at the time, a way for him to advance more quickly, gain the respect needed to access the archives in the Brotherhood bunker and learn the higher techs before he was an elder.
The training had been brutal, his drill sergeant took pleasure in breaking in a low down, desk chomping, pencil pushing scribe. Eventually though he earned his power armor, albeit at a quicker pace due to the dire situation the bunker was in as the raiders and denizens of the waste were injuring more and more of the patrolmen on duty. He performed almost half a dozen patrols before he truly saw what horrors occured in the wasteland. It started with smoke on the horizon, a nearby settlement was under attack by the Reavers, a known cannibalistic group of raiders and extremely violent. The patrol commander gave the order to move in and the patrol was able to hit the Reaver's before they were aware of the Brotherhood patrol.
In the End the Patrol suffered minor injuries, while the Reavers suffered heavy casualties before they routed. The settlement though was in ruins, most had either fled or died horrifically at the hands of the raiders. Men, Woman, the Elderly and children were horrifically killed by their attackers, some suffered worse before being executed by their tormentor. At this sight Kora couldn't help but lose his guts on the ground, he had been a scribe. He'd read over hundreds of reports and yet nothing had prepared him for this level of violence. It was that day he swore to savage any raiders he found, known would escape his judgement for such depravity.
From there he became more reckless, short sighted and a little bit of a loose cannon in the eyes of his superiors. He hasn't faced judgement yet, but he knows that if he continues his reckless abandonment of the RoE that his superiors will hammer down on him. Until then he had to do whatever it takes to clean up the wastes while he still had the power to do so...
Kora is very tall over six foot and near two hundred pounds with a lean athletic figure. He relies a lot on his power armor to enhance his strength in the field but his training has kept him in peak physical condition. His hair is completely white, a genetic defect he inherited from his parents. He also suffers from vitiligo and is the primary reason he never moves around without some type of heavy clothing. The autoimmune disease effects mainly his chest, legs and the back of his hands. This disease has left him covered by several white spots in unusual and ugly ways, as it doesn't follow any specific method or path as it attacks his skin pigmentation. Kora is embarrassed about it and remains covered.
When Kora isn't working he can come off as warm and charming but distant as his thoughts always drift to what he has seen on patrol. He doesn't drink like some of the soldiers do, he loses himself in his work instead until either he goes to bed or back on patrol.

@Corerur: No worries bud! Things have been crazy for me to but now that the semester is over, I can focus on some good ol' D-rollin'. Besides, GMing is more work that playing, if you ask me. It certainly would be cool if we were able to play together. We'd have fitting characters as well, though she resents the Brotherhood just for what it stands for, but not necessarily any individual within it.

Dr is 1/2 the fall out listed. And the gm says he will be implementing some sort of armor degeneration system.
Also reflavor your magic abilities as tech so something like channel would be perhaps a small swarm of med nanites you can use however many times perday. Smite would be some sort of bio or power tech item you use on your weapon that only works for you because its gene locked. That sort of thing.
| Deidre Rose |

Oh no worries. I got the magic/tech conversion down. I'm running a space-fantasy campaign so I've been burning many calories trying to think of magic/science conversions. Easy enough for me to imagine!
Reading up on the variant rules now. Looks like you guys have six in the discussion thread. Hopefully I can get in. If my build isn't helpful, then I can see about changing it. Also, I'm kicking her age down to 22. Just feels more like "lvl 1" that way. Haha. I like starting out low. I feel... threatened? Maybe that's just a sick pleasure of mine. Haha.

K got the DR fixed, don't know if the power armor does affect his stats or not but we'll see. Didn't see anything reading over the thread. Thanks for the help Darius. :D
Updated his sheet with a field report, its a bit explicit but it shows how Kora has changed in the recent weeks. >:)
I added a description for Kora, still working on eye color and such. But his skin color, height and weight are there~
Edit
So with the armor variant, I get ac per a paldin when unarmored and when armored I would use my armor bonus instead. Sounds good to me. :)
That is if i'm reading it right~
| Darius Darkblade aka Legionare |
|
|
No I asked no bonuses from armor unless we make it think of stats and skill bonuses being like master work....
No when armored you get dr instead of the def bonus to ac its a trade off. The more dmg you can ingore the easier to hit you are. If that makes sense its why my character has a dr 6 3lb. Armor and power armor. The power armor is for heavy fire situations where movement is as important as ingoring dmg.... if that makes sense.
| Kora Kirion - Junior Paladin |
|
|
Kind of. ^^;
I understand tahat a guy in power armor is going to make an easier target then a guy in Merc clothes. Because the merc will be on the move hard and fast while the power armor wearing guy is going to be trudging in taking fire and slinging it right back. :)
So my character sheet should be good for the most part if AC isn't really a big deal. Because of the DR is the reason I went for a full Power Armor set. I was assuming that the helmet wasn't free. ;) If it is please correct me lol!
I will re-read the thread as apparently I mentally skimmed it like a tool. >.<; See if I can pickup on other things I may have missed~
Thanks again for the help Darius. :)
| Darius Darkblade aka Legionare |
|
|
I can recharge them if we can find a power plant.
Also sorry but Darius isnt going to stay in a room with Bos if he can help it. Not a whole squad when he doesnt know if anyone has his back.....
Also to the new people sorry if im being bossy about character stuff but im just trying to help so when the gm gets back we are ready to roll out like autobots lol.
| Kora Kirion - Junior Paladin |
|

I could go with a bigger gun if you guys want me too. ;) I just didn't think it would be realistic for Kora to be hefting a Plasma rifle just yet. Even with being a BoS guy, I assumed such weapons would be higher rank only. :p
Thanks again Darius, I think Kora is all ready to go, he doesn't have as much equipment and only about 33 shots with his laser rifle but he's ready I think.
Or are we doing ammo differently?
Because MIcro cells go for 3 caps each and I bought over 30 lol so 1 = 1 shot right?
| Kora Kirion - Junior Paladin |
|
|
Since we are in Chicago (area) I have based Kora's story more around the Cannon that talks about the BoS there. If there is anything extra I need to change let me know. But Basically I am basing ti off the BoS from Fallout Tactics, ranks bunker names you name it. :)
Tried to put some good detail in his character sheet, hopefully it wasn't too much. ^^; Also is their a repair skill? or would that fall under Craft, K or Profession checks?
| Darius Darkblade aka Legionare |
|
|
No your gun will tell you how many shots you get per cell.
As for repairs I think its some freakish combo of craft know engineering and in my special case knowledge technology. Which I have as a high profile military prototype tester. But is otherwise unavailable. Hence the reason the BoS and everyone else wants me. I understand the principles underlying the tech not just how to fix it.
| Kora Kirion - Junior Paladin |
|
|
Roger that and I need to make one more change to my character sheet. My bad for misunderstanding that K-Tech was only specfic o a single character >.>;
Thats what I get for perusing character sheets lol!
Edit1:
Sorry again there Darius, didn't mean to keep making mistakes, turned that extra rank over into my Disable Device skill. Trying to keep my guy as a Scribe/Paladin. He's into reverse enginneering and gathering tech items but he's so new he doesn't have it down yet. :)
But Got it fixed :)
| Kora Kirion - Junior Paladin |
|
|
K updated the sheet one final time, have all the gear I need now. :) And plenty of ammo, I was also able to get the ripper! Ha! So my idea of Kora lives on!
Now I have to determine the rippers damage which will be fun~
I also have some artisan tools now and a crowbar which fits him being in the Repo Squad of the Midwest chapter.
Thanks again Darius :)
Edit1: K found the page again for ripper stats. :) This is gonna be fun!
| Darius Darkblade aka Legionare |
|

And as for knowledge tech I think I can teach it later. But me having it represents my having gone to college and gotten what we would consider a doctorate in high energy physics and nuclear tech. Its my template perk along with some knowledge abiut military hard sites when ever the dm needs a plot hook he can be like your near blah blah research bunker you remember blah blah blah being there Darius thinks he should go make sure the blah blah blah isnt about to blow up the world again lol.

@Fitzgerald: It'll be good to know eventually and thanks for the input, like I've been saying he's going to be a scribe/paladin of the BoS. As such i'm going to make him a heavy crafter of the higher tech's that he knows of the brotherhood. so far the only things he does know is his own personal gear. Once he gets access to other items he can branch out, so to speak, since as a scribe their used to cataloging and reverse engineering things for brotherhood use.
Since he was still so new before his transfer to JP status he doesn't quite have it down yet. ;) But that's why I have his skills set the way I do, so he will be moderately useful.
@Darius: Understood Darius! I just made the mistake of thinking it was an available skill, which I have corrected. ;) It'll be neat to see what the future holds.
@GM In answer to a question you had earlier I normally don't read In Game spoilers. I do for character sheets unless they say DM ONLY KEEP OUT or something like that. Then I known they have some hush hush info they don't want read.
