Through the Mirror (Open and Accepting)

The town of Ridgeway, Pennsylvania, is a quiet town. Always has been, from the time it was established. It rests quietly in the valley in the North Eastern region of Pennsylvania, and is secluded from most of the rest of the valley. It has a population of about 2,000, and everybody knows everybody.

Like any small town in the middle of nowhere, it has it's share of urban legends. Some are very unbelievable, like the story of the woman who haunts the abandoned school because her students were bad to her. But some of them, specifically one of them, are still questioned and feared today, in 2015. The one mysterious rumor that the town is known for.

This legend is unnamed, but everybody knows of it. The story goes, that in deep in the woods surrounding the town, there are train tracks. Tracks, that lead to an unused tunnel. Nobody knows how long the tunnel is, because nobody goes into it. However, the rumor says that there is a mirror of the town on the other side. Exactly the same as it is on the true side, but it's always raining. Some claim to have seen it, but not many are telling the truth. Nobody has adventured INTO the mirrored town of Ridgeway, because it has a certain feeling of gloom over it. Like something is missing. Not much is known about Other Ridgeway. But it's time something is discovered...

And it's up to some residents of the town. Who else? Nobody goes there from the outside. A small group of curious people from Ridgeway will attempt to discover the mystery of it's twin. But can you solve the mystery? Or is there a darker force over Ridgeway, waiting to stop you?

In this roleplay, you will play the role of one of the members of a small group of adventurous residents of Ridgeway, Pennsylvania. I will wait for some show of interest from others before I post a character sheet skeleton.

I know I'm not a GM or Co-GM of this topic, But if people aren't going to fix their characters for DAYS, maybe we should consider starting without them.

This didn't die did it?

I know that not everything here is canon to Fallout, but it is stated in the Fallout Bible that there are only 120-or so Vaults made by Vault-Tec. Sorry if that's a problem. I know its not my decision to change anything, but I know just about all there is to know about Fallout and its Lore, and everything that goes with it. It's not a huge problem, it's just stated in Fallout Canon, even though it is true that the Fallout Bible isn't completely 100% Canon.

Fallout: Dixie Rivermen

Name: Malcolm Crowley

Race: Human

Age: 27

Height: 6'1"

Weight: 145 lbs.

Appearance: Malcolm is an in shape guy, from a lot of travelling as a scavenger. He has short, light brown hair, or, in Fallout hairstyles, The Unsettler. And he has blue eyes. He is usually covered in grime from exploring and fixing things, and has no care for cleaning it up, and therefore doesn't try. Malcolm wears a red bandana on his head, and he is almost never seen without it. He wears the jacket that is a part of the Roving Trader outfit, but without all the spoons and watches that are on it. He usually leaves the jacket unbuttoned, and he wears a hawaiian shirt under it. Malcolm also wears dark black jeans and some red converse sneakers like the ones on the [Vault Utility Jumpsuit], and a backpack to keep his equipment.

Equipment: Malcolm carries around a lot of ammo for his trusty shotgun, and a canteen with a sugar bombs logo on the front of it. He also carries around a pair of binoculars to check for raiders or super mutants before he goes scavenging somewhere new.

Weapons: Malcolm wields a double barrelled shotgun, as his specialty. and he has a machete for a melee weapon.

Specializations: Malcolm is a jet addict. plain and simple. It's not exactly good for him, but it helps in a strange way. As Jet gives you more AP points in game, it gives Malcolm the ability to do more in a short amount of time, almost as if time gets slowed down around him when he fights. Not literally of course, but it seems like it whenever he goes into battle. When he suffers from Jet withdrawal, he almost can't seem to function properly. He specializes in Stealth whenever he is scavenging, but suffers very much in his science type skills.

Biography: Malcolm was born and raised in the area to the north of The Pitt, known as Wyoming Pennsylvania. Or now known as The Wyoming Settlement. When he turned 18 years old, Malcolm left his home to explore the wastes. Having only one parent his whole life, as his dad was killed on a scavenging mission to an abandoned school building, Malcolm wasn't controlled much, and left when he wanted to, taking the shotgun his dad had left behind for him, and his own machete.

Malcolm Crowley explored a lot in the Capital Wastes when he got down that way, and even travelled with quite a few people. On his way through there, he met a ghoul named Dane, and they traveled together for about a year and a half, moving west. In whats left of the state of Illinois, Malcolm and Dane ran into quite a bit of trouble. They ended up in an abandoned military base being occupied by Super Mutants. It wasn't anything like Mariposa, but it was full of Muties, regular, Brutes, and Overlords. When they got deeper in, Malcolm and Dane got trapped in an area they weren't escaping without stealthboys, despite them being very good at sneaking. They had to fight their way out with weapons they picket up, Miniguns and Assault rifles. Grenades. Missiles. Everything. When they were almost out of the basem and almost out of ammo, they were cornered. Dane, being the heroic type, risked his own life to save Malcolm. It was a heroic death, and Dane took a lot of bullets for Malcolm. He tried his best to drag Dane out of the base in the end, and he was successful, but all the bandages and stimpaks that Malcolm had couldn't save Dane, but he died of blood loss before they reached a settlement.

For a while, Malcolm wouldn't travel with anyone, and took Dane's signature hawaiian shirt to remember him by. But he eventually ended up somewhere near Memphis, and from this point, is looking for a settlement to trade and sell and possibly live.

Zombie Survival Stories (RP IDEA)

Sorry for being away for a few weeks you guys. Now that Im back, we can actually start making characters. We can just post them here to make it easier. Name: Age: Ethnicity: Physical Description: Inventory(Items,weapons,etc.): Short biography: Favorite weapon type: Skills: (You guys can post your characters right in here)

Zombie Survival Stories (RP IDEA)

well now that I have a few people, I want to toss around the idea I had a little bit. There was a Quarantine Zone in the city. A big one, with electronically locking, barbed wire gates, that surround a large portion of the central city of Seattle. Someone has lost their mind completely, and has found the controls that lock the gates and do pretty much everything inside of the zone. Their clever ruse? Luring survivors into the area and locking them in, facing them with all the undead inside the gates. There are little supply drops that will help the survivors now and again, but also trials to try and kill them quicker. This is the general idea. Of course, if you would all prefer, we can start before we go into the gated area, so that we can build up characters before we go in.

Zombie Survival Stories (RP IDEA)

I want to start a Zombie survival roleplay that takes place in a city in the early months of the apocalpyse. I have a bigger idea for once it all actually starts, but I want to see how many people are interested for now.
