Alright, here we go. First round of approvals. Based on your character sheet, you will also get access to a unique perk that will affect rolls plus other mechanics yet to be introduced. I'm also going to provide you with your equipment stats in the Discord once I'm finished balancing them over the weekend. (Also dealing with IRL shenanigans atm but what else is new?)
@Abstract Proxy You are officially approved. You will get double approved and a second trait if you choose to make your character speak in a Bostonian Russian accent.
@Peik Hog is approved. Yey.
@Eviledd1984 Everything is generally fine but I have several issues with the backstory of Aaron. His father’s status as an NCR soldier doesn’t make sense and if he was killed in the battle for Caesar’s Legion, does this mean his father migrated to Hawaii and then, all the way back to California? People just don’t do large migratory treks ala Oregon Trail in Fallout, especially to unknown lands like the Aloha Isles. It also doesn’t specify how your character managed to end up on the Green Horizon. Did they travel to the states to continue their dream of being a scavenger/part-time singer? The internal motivations in his backstory seem frankly sporadic as well. Putting aside the fact that juvenile detention in Fallout for most factions would equate exile, death or forced conscription; I find it hard to believe that a I get that you’re going for the archetype of a swashbuckling rogue but how does your OC decide to switch from a thief to a bard and then, to a scavenger? There needs to be a more consistent throughline and justification other than ‘just because’. This sheet remains unapproved for now.
@Letter Bee No problem with anything other than the fact I’m probably gonna use your takes on how FO4 and FONV ended in broad strokes for the timeline of Aloha. A New Vegas independence/Mr House ending would make sense for how I envision the NCR and the Institute are a bunch of silly nincompoops.
@DeadDrop Everything about the character so far is alright. Just keep in mind your skills can't be higher than 3 and you need to redistribute them. Approved.
@Randomguy Approved except just add a sentence or two about APGA and your OC’s history with them/
@Starlance Approved.
@Theyra Approved
