Of Salt and Powder (A Fantasy-Renaissance NRP)

Might do a northern Usurpian shtick, maybe.

With a vibrant display of sparks and gun fire, Sage's gun launched two bullets through the artificial void of this world. With a cry of robotic pain, the cubekin in front had a new hole cutting into its head, shooting cubic giblets out the back as he tried to raise his hands to his face as he was swept off the ground. They were dead before they hit the ground in an explosion of more shapes. The second bullet missed just a little but still hit its target in the neck, forcing the cubekin to stumble onto the ground on his knees and arms, one hand over the wound, before immediately falling to the ground twitching.

As the final melee warrior was killed, the two gunner changed tactics and began to slowly move in a zig-zag. Going from one wall to the other, meeting up at a center point, then continuing to a wall before "bouncing" off of them and repeating the process. They made progress towards Sage and even as their wild bullets continued to avoid Sage like she was an inverse magnet, it would be hard to miss her once they were close.

"Do you doubt the abilities of my tribe Vulpes Inculta?" The Artificer King Actus eyed the man who had come to check on his progress, standing up from his seat in the town hall with a raised eyebrow, "We are Caesar's engineers for good reason."

"I do not but I am simply stating that it would have been far more efficient and easier to raze this depraved den of whores and bandits." Inculta's voice was just as cold and lifeless as ever, monotonous enough to be unsettling even to those who had become regular targets of his visits as hidden eyes stared down the Artificer King.

"Perhaps but now we have the NCR were we want them. Should they come they will have to assail our defenses and these new prisoners will surely be killed off in the crossfire. On the flip side, should they fail to come, it will be a sign that the Republic does not have the power or courage or perhaps even kindness to even attempt to defend the people here." Visibly proud, Actus boasted of his plan with outstanding confidence, "At any rate, we will force a battle here and take home some new slaves and resources; Caesar's orders after all. Even if we cannot obtain a military victory here a political victory shall be born."

With little else to remark, Vulpes Inculta was escorted out by Actus to the entrance of the town hall now being used as a command center. A group of legionary escorts came to the Vulpes's side and with a "Hail Caesar!" the man began his way out of the city as it was being turned into a death trap, careful not to disturb andy pitfalls or landmines on their journey. King Actus on the other hand turned to face the front where trenches were being dug. Slaves towed in rocks and the trailers they once lived in to be used as bunkers. Out in the open was open bait, a cage consisting of captured persons who could not escape but it was more than just them in the middle of a minefield and pitfall traps, several of the slaves were squatting on pressure mines that would explode if they moved ensuring that if the NRC tried to move them, they'd all die.

Even should the defense fail, Actus had already made contingencies and had his son Heorem set up fall back points if not against his will. All that remained was constructing excuses for Caesar should he be questioned for it. With so many degenerate meatsheilds however, Actus had full confidence that even if the NRC sent its entire army at his defenses, he would still grant the Legion victory in the hearts and minds of the people of the Mojave.

Artificer King Actus

Actus Algoran

^{Artificer King of the Wise Iron Tribe}

---

---

Age:

48

Appearance

Old and learned, Actus Algoran has weathered many a rough seasons, aged brown hair starting to turn white and the light in once hazel eyes fading into an amber bronze. His stature is respectable but a hunch is visible from years of leaning over tables and workbenches. His king's regalia is a steel breastplate decorated with trinkets and pipes leading in and out as well as many a pockets and pouches contains writing utensils, note pads and spare parts.

Personality

Actus was never one for the arts of war but, embodying his tribe's tradition and culture, is a scholar of the old world arts of knowledge. A tenacious elder, Actus is known to be stubborn and blunt but is well respected for his technical knowledge and learned ways knowing how to read beyond simple english and able to memorize entire books and technical manuals; an undisputed brilliant mind capable of running both numbers and sonnets.

Fourth to the Algoran legacy, Actus is a pragmatic and wily old man able to out fox and out think his opponents which may be a cause for his increased power over tribal affairs believing more in hard work and logic over luck and fortune. Actus endorses slavery not out of cruelty or sadism, but out of pragmatism seeing slaves as cheap labor for menial tasks like digging and manual muscle, anything else thats not unskilled is left to the skilled hands of his people.

Faction

Wise Iron Tribe (Legion-Aligned)

S.P.E.C.I.A.L.

• Strength: 3
• Perception: 7
• Endurance: 9
• Charisma: 8
• Intelligence: 10
• Agility: 4
• Luck: 2

Backstory

Born of the royal blood of Algoran, Actus spent his early life surrounded by tutors and his elders who taught him how not only to read, but to think. His studies would range from how to survive on the land to how to decipher old world text to how to write the letters of the old languages. The first encounter that Algoran would have with the Legion is during his time as a child when his father ruled. A host of drilled and disciplined legionaries and wise, charismatic diplomats came as part of a regular meeting with the Artificer King as Actus's father, Pythagor, had allied the tribe with the Legion after being impressed with their society. Perhaps in a move to secure good future relations, one of the diplomats gave the young heir his own weapon, a .45 auto pistol to which Actus keeps to this day.

Actus would assume control in his late teens when his father was assassinated by an NCR ranger. The new Artificer King lead a hunt for 4 days and 4 nights and captured the ranger by outwitting the sniper before torturing him and making a show out of them back at the Wise Iron fortress for all to see, increasing Legion support both within the people and within himself.

His rule has been seen with increased support with the Legion, becoming a major supplier for them in terms of both military of administrative roles. Shipments of fabricated grenade rifles, explosives and blades are accompanied by artillery and fortification specialists whose work can often be seen either building walls or destroying them. Being one of the most educated tribes, man have also found work in the Legion as clerks and book keepers who help Caeser in keeping his realm afloat as well as constructing new buildings in his territory.

Artificer King Actus is married to the Craft Queen Matri and has four children: Lord Rashio the heir, Lady Cartesia the scholarly maiden, Lord Heorem the tribe champion and Lady Parab the youngest of them all.

@Letter BeeJust curious from an idea that popped into my head, can we play as non humans ie a tribe of ghouls/super mutants?

Alternate Fallout: New Vegas, Points of Divergence

I'm going to be making a Legion-aligned tribe of basically engineers, their backstories much like the Legion's itself but instead of finding books of Rome and History they found books on Math and Science. Literally built a hill fort castle that Legion scouts thought was NRC or old world at first glance and mostly gives the Legion clerks/bookkeepers in civilian aspects and siege/artillery specialists for Legio Imperialis.
