In the Winter of 2066, Anchorage was fought over and taken by the Chinese. It was taken back on January 10, 2077, then abandoned almost completely. Those who remained struggled to rebuild their broken society, and the first major faction within Anchorage was born. The loyal band of followers, formed under the care of the Fairview family, was aptly named the Fairview Followers. This band of wanderers thrived in the few months before the Great War, and even after the radioactive dust from the nukes in the southern states cleared, the people of Fairview continued to live happily in their little corner of the world, occupying much of downtown Anchorage and providing people a safe place to rest on their journey, or even make their home.
Alaska remained mostly untouched by the nuclear fallout that ruined the rest of the country, why that is is certainly not a mystery. Anchorage had already been beaten into the ground, and most of the buildings had been reduced to not much more than piles of rubble, so it’s no surprise that China decided not to waste any more of their precious weapons on an already ruined city. Shockwaves from the bombs hit Anchorage, but most people in Alaska are no strangers to earthquakes, though these were, decidedly, a bit higher on the Richter Scale than the normal quakes.
It was in the months to come that the dangers of post-apocalyptia became apparent. Though radiation levels in the very center of Anchorage were moderate, the rest of the city remained relatively safe from rad damage, until the rain began to fall. Throughout the month of November the entire state was submerged in a torrential downpour of black rain, which came up from the south and saturated the soil in radiation, increasing the radiation levels throughout the land.
When the radioactive downpour finally ceased, Anchorage had lost many more citizens, and -save for a select few that were preserved from the rain- those who hadn’t perished were so soaked with radiation that they would be transformed into ghouls over time.
Years after the rain had washed the rubble of the once bright beacon that was Anchorage, a new creature began to make it’s presence known among the townspeople. It crept in the shadows, preying on unsuspecting citizens, both human and ghoul alike. The bodies were never found, but many have ideas on where in the wastes they may have been taken away to. Vault 113, one of two vaults around Anchorage, seemed to be the most popular opinion, though none were brave enough to make the journey and find out. Rumor hinted at the vault being off the west coast of Anchorage, on what used to be Fire Island, back before the war.
The island sure was a fiery one during the battle. The entire landscape could be seen from the mainland and was engulfed in a glowing red haze of smoke with the occasional lick of flame visible amongst the burning timbers. Embers, still hot from the fire, drifted from the island all the way to the mainland, littering the ground in ash, and causing miniature blazes in dry patches on the coast. When the fires faded and the smoke cleared, the only thing that seemed to remain of the island was a blank black landscape, speckled with the skeletons of trees and piles of charred lumber from what used to be cabins used by hunters.
The island seems to be uninhabited now, but it's unknown if creatures still roam there.

Attacks are growing more frequent, and whatever is lurking in the shadows is becoming increasingly careless- leaving mangled bodies behind. They litter the streets and more turn up dead each week. The problem has caused the factions to team up, selecting members to participate in a potentially deadly mission of discovery. It's assumed that whatever the creature is, it originated somewhere on Fire Island. The team's job is to make their way across the Northern Wastes, and then find a way to cross the stretch of water separating the mainland from the island. Finally, they are to search the island for answers and return to their respective factions, hopefully with answers, and a plan to take out the creature.


You can play essentially as anything in the Fallout universe. All spots are unlimited right now, with the exception of the human spots on the discovery team.
-A human in any faction, except the Armed Forces and Vault 109*
-A human wanderer
-A Ghoul living in civilization
-A Ghoul living in the wastes
-A Super Mutant

*You may make a character from vault 109, but the character will be unplayable until the discovery team visits the vault. At that point you could join in with said character and tag along with the team as they head to Fire Island.

Discovery Team Members
-Rabbit Creek (2 Open) Jennifer, X
-Fairview (2 Open) Big Guy, Maxwell
-Ravens (2 Open) X, X
-Northern Providence (1 Open) Maddie, X

Characters
-Maddison Grace Green
-Jennifer Wolgast
-Uncle Rots
-Big Guy
-Maxwell Hendirkson

This roleplay will focus a lot on character relations in addition to action, so character sheets don't need to be nearly as detailed as they usually would be for a typical casual roleplay. For most questions you can get away with using one or two word answers. That being said, you're welcome to put more work into your CS if you feel it is necessary.
You're also welcome to change/remove parts of the base CS that is given, so long as you provide general information. If you're unsure of whether or not a section is entirely necessary, simply ask.





Locations









Creatures










This roleplay does not stay completely true to canon. It is set in the Fallout Universe and takes place about 200 years after the war ended.

@vosenedich
Maxwell sounds like a great fit for the roleplay. Once you finish up his CS feel free to post it in the characters tab. If you have questions about the factions or the team just let me know!

@Stekkmen
Jennifer seems like a very interesting character. Feel free to post her CS in the characters tab whenever you're ready!

Glad to have you both on board. I'm excited to get this started. I'm hoping to have a few more people before the team heads out, so I may just have the current characters at a meeting in one of the Faction bases so that we can all roleplay even if we don't have all the roles filled.

Still room for me to join? Would a ghoul merchant/trader have any use? possibly high charisma/luck, bluffs and talks his smartass out of most things?

@Pathfinder
Happy to have you (again). You can post a CS here and once it's approved it can be moved to the Characters tab.

@Eneui
We are most definitely still accepting. I'm thinking a trader wouldn't be someone that the factions would initially choose but if the group ran into you'd probably want to tag along. I would definitely understand a trader wanting to hit up the old vaults to bring back cool loot to pawn off. Totally works for me if that's the route you want to go!
Go ahead and post a CS here whenever you're ready and we will go from there. :)

@Ktyhrea
I'm making a super mutant character and I got a couple of questions. First, what would the average age range be for these guys? 220 or something? I didn't see a solid date where our story is taking place. Secondly I'd like to know how long these guys have been around because if they've been around awhile then I'd like to have him be tied pretty closely with the Fairview faction, probably helped with the construction or been a bodyguard for the Fairview's for a couple generations.

If that second part is a no go just let me know, I'm just throwing ideas out and seeing what will stick.

@Pathfinder

that's going to be fun. supermutants are cool.

though obviously his SPECIAL is by Supermutant standards because he's only two more points stronger than my character, and i'm pretty sure Supermutants can like...punch down doors. or pick up a door and throw it. i mean they're pretty strong. and they can take a lot of shots, too, unlike most shrimpy humans who die in like, three.

Hey everyone, I really appreciate your patience. It's been a very busy few days here and with Tropical Storm Cindy preparing to hit Louisiana I've been focused on getting my family ready in case we need to bug out.
I will be unavailable tomorrow but will be back on Thursday (so long as we don't have an evacuation order) and I promise I will answer any and all questions then.

Until that point if you have posted a character consider yourself accepted and feel free to post in the Characters tab.

@jaybreezy We are most definitely still accepting. Post a CS here and I'll get back to you Thursday.

@Pathfinder I would say mid to late 200's. The supermutants here were originally created to fight in the battle for Anchorage with the Chinese, so they have been around for quite a while.
I wouldn't say your character would have been around for the creation of the faction, but it would be plossible to say that he has been with them for a very long time and has a close bond to the founding family.
If you have any other questions just ask and I'll answer them on a Thursday. Until then your CS looks great so go ahead and post it in the Characters tab.
