Vatful-A Fallout Forum Game Sign Up

[. ADestroyer360]

If you were in the chatbox on New Year's, you would know I have been working on adapting J.E. Sawyer's Fallout PnP game into a system that can be used for forum play. Well, I've finished everything necessary for making a character, so I'm starting the sign up today. The game still needs some work, but I'll probably be done by Wednesday, should be able to start the game by Friday if everything goes well :3

So here
The Fallout Forum RP Game Guide

If you have any questions, or notice a typo or grammatical error, please let me know.

Here's mine:
Name: Sean Backman
Race: Human
Age: 29
Sex: Male
Appearance and Personality: 6'1, athletic build. (magnificent) Dark brown goatee, soul patch and moustache combination. Two large scars, one that spans most of his upper body and a very noticable burn scar covering his right arm.Often comes across as sociopathic or even psychopathic, only coming across as intelligent and perfectly sane when he absolutely has to be. His sanity might be in question.
S:5
P:5

Tag skills: Science, Sneak and Small Guns

Traits: Specialist, Bloody Mess

Equipment: Grey stitched hooded sweatshirt (sleeveless), Ranger Dogtag on a chain around his neck, face bandana, very badly damaged Desert Ranger Gasmask*, a dirty bandage around his right hand and arm and a .45 Glock 21 pistol in a holster attatched to the lower back of his belt.

Backstory: Sean was born and raised a citizen of the Mojave. When he turned 16 his father started teaching him how to fight; the basics of firearms. His childhood friends were a shady bunch to say the least and the next three years after his 16th birthday, he was learning how to shoot, sneak and hack. Obviously these skills made him popular amongst the underworld types, but rather unpopular with the Desert Rangers of which his family had a history of serving in. Altercations with the Rangers lead to He moved east, to what would later be known as the Divide where he presumably lost his sanity. 10 years on and he still hasn't found it.

*It's mostly an heirloom from his family if it's okay

[Bornkillajazzman]

Name: Omar Donaldson

Race: Human

Level: 1

Description/Personality: African-American, short dark brown hair, goatee, brown eyes, about 6'0 in height, Medium Build.

Omar usually keeps to himself but at times social to familiar faces, he is nice and kind-hearted, and also a very helpful person, clever, and also likes to play tricks with peoples minds. Even though this is his actual personality, he mostly hides it.

Tag Skills: Small Guns, Outdoorsman, Speech.

Traits: Bloody Mess.

Equipment:
.357 Magnum Revolver
Brahmin Skin Holster

Sister's Note

Back story: Omar lived part of his life in Megaton, a small town in the D.C. wasteland. He comes from a family of who only think about the good things in this deprived world, with high spirit. Born and partly raised in Megaton he learned much in the way of survival. He lived with both his parents, and his younger sister. Some say luck passes through genes, this in fact was true for Omar, but through part of his childhood he found himself to be a very unlucky person, his mother would say it was because he would doubt himself. Omar was the oldest in his family next to his younger sister, he was very close with his youngest sister Shana and had a close bond.

From age 5-12 he always relied on his family, he wasn't a very hard working boy at all, although the only person he cared for the most was his sister. His family taught him well, he wasn't a troublemaker in town or at home. Everyone found him to be a nice person and a very good speaker, he was able to get himself out of any situation. His father would tell him stories of how he owned three succesful Caravans but gave it all away to settle down with his mother ( Not the father's mother incase you didn't know ).

On his 13th birthday his father decided to teach him how to hunt, and survive in the waste, and also taught him some tricks on how to maintain his weapons and armor. When Omar became 17 his father was killed while defending the town during a Raid. After the passing of Omar's father, his mother became depressed from the passing of her husband and after four years she passed away from high amounts of Rad. Poisoning. Omar's sister Shana couldn't handle the stress and left Megaton one night leaving only a note for Omar. Once Omar found the note he was shocked.

After a few hours had passed since Omar's finding of the note, Omar decided at that very moment that there was nothing left for him in Megaton or the D.C. Wasteland. Omar knew what he wanted to do so he took his father's old Caravan equipment and what food he had left and went on his journey.

How varied can the special skills be?

[Desert Sleepy]

Name: Walter Fairbanks

Race: Super Mutant

Age: ??

Gender: Male

Appearance and Personality: Looks like most other Super Mutants, as he is large and green. Has poor recall of whatever life he lived prior to being a Super Mutant. Despite being essentially a large, strong monster capable of ripping limbs off, is rather shy. Would prefer others who are more well spoken do the talking. Wears a tremendous, homemade lab coat, as he likes to think of himself as a doctor, and also wears accompanying over-sized ragged slacks and collared shirt. Tries to avoid conflict, but can handle himself if necessary, due to his large size and strength.

S: 10
P: 6
E: 6
C: 3
I: 4
A: 7
L: 4

Tag Skills: Unarmed, Doctor, Energy Weapons

Traits: Bruiser, Specialist

Equipment: Clothing, basic first aid equipment. Brass knuckles for defense.

Backstory: Was fortunate enough to maintain his sanity despite his transformation. Tends to think of himself as unlucky, and avoids conversations. Will talk when needed, or about business. Is very strong, and uses his fists to defend himself when needed. Can't remember his exact age, but knows he's been around for at least 50 years or so. Known as "Walter Fairbanks", as the lab coat he wears has this stitched on the name tag. Tries his best to be polite and make a good first impression on people he meets, so they don't dislike him solely for being a mutant.




*Sorry, I couldn't come up with anything good. My knowledge about Fallout lore and Super Mutants in particular is somewhat limited. I kind of just copied what I remembered about Fawkes, the stuff about not really knowing exactly how he became a Super Mutant in the first place. I also tried to make him a doctor archetype, so he could help the group. Hope everything's okay, but if not, I'll try to fix it. Just respond and tell me whether it's all good or not.

[DJDemitri]

Oh can you pleas read mine and tell me if anythin is wrong? I havere- Edited or content and organization twice

[. ADestroyer360]

@snowwolf You are just asking for me to abuse my GM powers

@Dex Do you mean Tags? They can be any 3 skills.

@Des You might want to give Walter a weapon.

@Demitri I'll allow the Hidden Blade, but don't be jumping off buildings into haystacks. It won't work.

I have finished the Perks, and I'm almost done the character sheets now. I'll keep the sign up open either until we have 8 players, or Friday. I would like at least one ghoul for the story, but if not I can work around that.

[Dexta117]

I meant the S. P. E. C. I. A. L. levels, like can 1 or 2 be REALLY high and the others be low or do you want kinda close levels for them. Also, I am in the middle of making a Ghoul right now.

Special skills can be set to anything, as long as the values are between your racial minimum and maximum, and there is no more than 40 points total.

[DJDemitri]

Ofof course I won jump ion hay, hay doesn't grow anymore lol, buti just want the ability to grab someone's entire face where this pike mutilated their brain, I assumed it would be a perfect level 1 wep cause it's very close quarters and not completely safe to get close to anything like that.

Now I isn't choice of clothes or armor ok, I didn't know if that stuff would be in fallout?

[Slacker Hero]

The fact that you're using JE Sawyer's pnp makes me really interested.

I'll make a sheet shortly.
