Alternate Fallout: New Vegas, Points of Divergence

I'm sorry. I'm interested and intend on playing, I just have my hands in a lot of things. Both RP and real life. I find myself losing track of a lot of things.

@Letter Bee Would Khan, Ashleigh's pet Nifhtstalker, be able to pick up on Max's scent or anything. Or like the smell of tabacco smoke? Because I would imagine he would alert her if something was wrong. If that not cool with Kirito that's fine or if he wouldn't manage to pick something up. I was just curious as she does have an animal companion. :p

"I'm alive.... Just very badly burnt..."

Just kidding. I've been busy and caught up in other things. Other games. And real life.

Ashleigh would look over the map good a couple of times before comminting it to memory and pocketing her down payment; then she would finish drinking her tea and looking to John before replying "I'm used to doing for myself by myself. Always have. But this time I think I ought make an exception. I have a feeling this job would go ten times smoother ifanot faster, if'n neither of us had to worry bout the other one upping them or trying to stick a knife in da back, don'chu? Two heads are better than one, and I know the Mojave like the back of my hand; not to mention can hunt, cook and prepare game meat like few others. Would help us keep a low profile by taking back dirt roads folks don't normally travel. As long as its an animal and not an abomination or mutie, I can take it down and cook it. Furthermore, Ol' Khan here will keep us safe. Saved more life a good number o times, the varmint has. What do you say? I'll split is even. Girls scout's honor." She finished making the girl scout salute for good measure.

I do apologize. Its finals week for me too, or at least next week is. I've either been busy tired or distracted. I'll try to get a post out before I pass out for sleep tonight and will try to be more attentive in the future. :sad:

Hi there, everyone! :D

Hi everybody! My name is Aaron Ive been an avid off and on Roleplayer for several years after I got out of school. I have played several systems on pnp including DnD, PF, BESM 2.5/3E, MHR, CoC, NWoD, and IKRPG. I have also been on a few PbP games and forums. I enjoy silly/lighthearted fun, serious more grounded stories, ERP and just about any kind of game and setting as long as the GM is flexible and fun and the other players are pleasant to hang out with. I hope to find some good games and make some friends while on here! :

Ashleigh Ackerson

Ashleigh was not a thief, she would take things from corpses she came across- because Hell if the dead had any need for Stimpacks, caps, ammo, clothes or the likes- And most of what she needed she could find out in the wild. She had always had a surprising resistance to radiation, and a stronger stomach than most, able to eat meat from the creatures of the wastelands as well make them edible for other people. But unfortuantely she needed caps to replenish her supplies or buy ammunition for her weapons from time to time and that meant taking up Jobs where they would come up. She had no wish to throw her life away trying to liberate a town of whores and thieves, she had no desire or intention to commit genocide in the name of science hunting ghouls, and didn't care at all for the politics of the Republic and the damned fanaticals in the Legion. So this trader's request as shady as it might be, was the best option. Regrettably it would require her to get involved with the NCR, but caps were caps after all....

Upon her arrival at the side of New Vegas Asheligh would find another traveller who had apparently taken up Rapids' request eyeing the Kings' heavily fortified dwelling, as well the guards getting bored with their current duty and taking thier boredom out on a stray rodent, that she herself could possibly take out with her magnum from 50 yards back. She noticed the other individual try to sneak around back. She could try to do the same, but she figured the diplomatic approach might be better. So she would reach into her bag and pull out the flier that she had decided to take with her before slinging her gun over her shoulder and holstering her pistol as well holding her hands up in a pacifist gesture. "Ho, there! Don't shoot! I'm here to see a Mr. Rapids! I've got a flier for the bounty! I'm not here for a fight! May I come in!?"

Ashleigh Ackerson

Aheleigh Ackerson

Name: Ashleigh Ackerson
Age: 28
Looks:

Picture

Personality: Ashleigh is a practical woman, living off the land. She realizes that in this god forsaken, atomically blasted, barren, unforgiving wasteland that one cannot be picky or wasteful with food or resources. She learned from an early age that in order to survive you have to take what you can get. She was raised in backwoods areas of the west on Radscorpion, Nightstalker, Bloatfly, and Big Horns. As she grew older she would seek out books on water purification, radiation, and meat preparation/treatment; learning how to make radiated/mutated animals insects edible first- before going on to making them actually taste like food. She is an almost peerless hunter, with the only species she has found herself unable to hunt being the deadly Deathclaws, needing larger weapons or more manpower to even contemplate taking on the behemoths. She has uncanny, near superhuman senses, able to pick up things most people would overlook or ignore. While not a real doctor by any sense, she is well practiced in First Aid and immediate treatment; able to make a sling, ampoule, tourniquet and remove poison enough for real doctors to see to herself and others. She is a drifter, not really setting down any roots and moving from one city to the next, occasionally making shelter out of ruined buildings, abandoned vehicles, or the likes when necessary. She is rather clueless when coming to matters of science or energy based weapons; a more “old fashioned” and down to earth type of woman. She is also not terribly adept at public speaking or persuasion. While she can talk just fine, she doesn’t have the interest or desire to lead or influence others.

LEON GREY, The Stranger NPC

Leon Grey, The Stranger

Name: Ranger Leon Grey, aka The Stranger
Age: 33
Looks:

Personality: Leon is a cowboy at heart, in the vein of Wyatt Earp, John Wayne, and Billy the Kid. He prefers to use old fashioned weapons such as six shooters, axes, dynamite, shotguns and lever action rifles. He is also efficient at using his own two hands. Able to hold his own in a fisticuffs scrap as well as shoot. He is usually found on horseback patrolling the Mojave when not called in for an important or special mission for the NCR. He is also a gentleman, true to his old western style. Surprisingly well-mannered in front of a lady, upholding a dead code of chivalry long forgotten. He sees himself as the New Age Lone Ranger. Riding out into the desert to protect the common man and fight injustice wherever he may find it. He has a dry, subtle wit and sense of humor. Often commenting or joking about things he observes, and often surprisingly fellows when his silence is broken by an unsuspected quip or one liner.

INQUISITOR FIREFLY, NPC

Inquisitor Firefly

Name: Inquisitor Lionadis, aka Firefly
Age: 28
Looks:

picture

Personality: Inquisitor Firefly is a mission oriented man, who aside from spreading Caesar’s glory and advancing the Legion, is obsessed with the eradication of anything in the Mojave that’s not human, excluding animal and larger predators such as Deathclaws. Mutants and abominations are his main targets in his quest to purge and cleanse the desert, if not the country. He is a man of few words, preferring not to mince words unnecessarily. He treats all in the legion as equals, not caring for gender or anything else of the likes. He sees individuals and people as units of an army or on their merits. He doesn’t care what you are: black, white, Hispanic, male or female; just as long you fulfill your role, serve your purpose and contribute to the expansion of the Legion and are loyal to Caesar. He is more concerned with the removal of abominations and non-humans than playing cowboys and Indians with the NCR. Though he won’t disobey a direct, but if mutants or other non-humans arrive in the middle of his objective he has been known to stop what he’s doing and try to remove the mutant threat. He is often accompanied by the scent of fuel, smoke and charred flesh.
