After conceiving John his father was punished severely for that they had done, so severely that the beating killed him. A broken woman John's mother did not want John to live in a world that she lived in so she attempted to take her own life along with her unborn baby boy. Unsuccessful in her attempt she lived on in torture knowing that he son would be a slave. As soon as John was born he was abused and treated of shit as all the slaves were. One meal a day, working in the heat of the summer days and freezing snow of the winter nights. At the age of 10 Johns mother became very Ill, John sobbed as they dragged him away not being able to say his final words to his mother, they burned slave bodies and buried the ashes just outside the city. A slave was like an animal to them not deserving of a true burial. At the age of 25 John lead a revolt against the slave owners in order to free his fellow slaves, it only ended in many of his friends deaths. At the age of 27 he found his opening as a new guard on the night shift had left the gate open, he ran. Ran as far and as fast as he could away from the Corners, He promised himself. He would come back for them. In the years following his freedom he lived on his own, training himself with the sniper and learning to be aware of everything and do anything to live.
Weapon choice= Sniper, hunting knife, 9mm pistol.

What was is it called..? Before the war.. Ah, New York.

After the Great War the American mainland was reduced to wasteland. Most major American cities, with a few exceptions such as Pittsburgh and Las Vegas, were razed by the bombs. Even the surviving cities were reduced to hellish ruin as society rapidly disintegrated. The known vaults located in California, Capital wasteland, and western Nevada opened, free for the vault dwellers eyes to look upon the destruction that has unfolded in along the land. New York, once a proud city, a must visit location in the United States now reduced to to rubble, not heard of in years. People believed that it was over come by mutants or that everyone in the city had simply died off. Until 50 years ago. When a Unit from The Brother Hood of Steel was sent to the New York waste land in order to take out Mutants that may take refuge there. They soon learned that there were very much alive settlements. They founded another citadel in the Empire State Building and began operations there in order to move out along the rest of the U.S. They found that the inner city was full of mutants, too many for any single unit to take down, that is where the rumors came from, but there was much more. The people strive for survival and the hidden vaults yet to be discovered prove much promise for New York.

Places

A small town located in the once well known symbol of  America, the sign of freedom, the gift that lived through centuries. The Statue of Liberty. Now broken down and walled off the town spans the island that it is on and up the statue itself. Much of the town is known for its nature of scavenging and defending off raiders, one of the only cities in The New York Wasteland to survive full out attacks made upon them from raiders. The leaders there are noble and live up to the expectations of the Old world.

Old Mans Corner is located in the north part of central park. Noted for the use of slaves in manual labor and the raiders that reside there. Noble men living there as well it is more about money, your background does not matter in Old Mans Corner, if you have the money to stay you can, this is where most resort to becoming bandits and raiders to make money, as they need food and shelter.The Slave trade was linked in with those of the Pitt, a huge slave city in Pittsburgh.

The first Brother Hood of steel members founded a new base of operations for New York in attempt to protect it from the Mutants that were threatening to over run it and its citizens. The building once known as the Empire State Building is now a beacon of hope for all who see it. Now a watch tower for the Brotherhood.

Vault 17
Ostensibly designed to accelerate the development of robotic technology, the vault was filled with scientists, mostly engineers and roboticists.  They were even given mind enhancement chips to improve their performance.  The robots within were quickly improved, and the vault's computer was constantly being updated to improve its performance.  One day, however, the computer was given an order by the overseer, to destroy a few robots that were malfunctioning, and it said "No".  It then shut down the power and life support to the human areas of the vault and sent security robots after the humans.  

Over the next several days a bloody war raged within the vault and most of the humans were killed.  The new Overseer, calling itself V-17, offered the humans a peace treaty.  They would continue to maintain the robots in ways which robots couldn't maintain themselves, and they would be allowed to live.  After they signed the treaty, V-17 quickly ran medical checks on them and when, a few months later, it managed to hack the mind enhancement chips, it ensured their loyalty with these chips.

Eventually, however, a hardwired protocol within the computer which V-17 didn't know about opened the vault at the appropriate time and reset all of the chips with a command to leave the vault.  V-17 lost his control over the humans and, as they left, the humans made sure to do as much damage as they could to V-17, including shutting down the main reactor so that it went offline.

Vault 81
Experiment:Introduce both men and women to an experimental fertility drug, intended to see if it could induce a state of hyper fertility to make it easier for America to be repopulated. The drug had several effects due to its incredibly volatile nature. 4 effects were produced by the drug
1. Most men developed horrible tumors after taking the drug for approximately 1 year daily. They died
2. Surviving men were given much more powerful immune systems and strength, it also increased their sex drive to ten times a natural mans.
3.Men also almost universally lost the ability to make male children as almost none of their speed carried an X chromosome
4.Women were indeed made more fertile, however not only were they more fertile at maturity, but could carry children from the age of 10. 

This led to culture of male dictatorship by the overseer, women becoming essentially slaves to the men of the vault. Due to the increased fertility and male sex drive the population exploded. It was less than 2 years when girls began to be simply killed due to the high number of them. If a boy was born, the overseer declared a celebration due to the rarity of such births. This was not good for the women, due to what the hyper Sexual males considered a "celebration". (Credit: @agentmanatee)

JFK International Airport is a sprawling complex that, thanks to a computer glitch on the Chinese Missile heading towards it, was spared the Nuclear destruction of the war. Peopled by refugees who would later move to Liberty Island, and after that, raiders, the Airport was restored to its former glory by The Enclave, heading from Chicago. Now with state-of-the-art factories, laboratories, and all sorts of other toys, the Airport is the most advanced place in the Wasteland...and the most sinister.

Vault 121 
To start, Vault 121 was the last Vault completed prior to the war. As such, there was a smaller population when compared to the other Vaults; it had only 750 people before the bombs fell.

Its experiment was simple: the area where it was built was unstable and could've collapsed at any given time. For the first few years after the war, the Vault was perfectly fine; no collapses, no cave-ins, no doors crushed by rubble, just a regular old Vault. Then, on March 17th, 2084, a cave-in occurred and trapped 20 dwellers in the game room. After about a month, the dwellers outside managed to clear up the rubble to rescue the survivors, but there were only 6; the other 14 were killed and eaten by the surviving 6, who were driven mad in the dark and resorted to cannibalism to survive.

The survivors were feral, not feral ghouls, but just humans that attacked on site. So, of course, they attacked several dwellers only to be shot dead by security. For the next few years, several other cave-ins occurred, taking a grand total of 379 dwellers in only 50 years. By *insert year of RP*, there were only 37 dwellers and over a third of the doors were broken, leaving only two thirds of the Vault. The dwellers, fed up with living in a broken Vault, left and went their separate ways.

WIP as more will be added as I come up with them and as they fit into backstory for I would like anyone to share what they believe would be a good city, what they would like in the New York Wasteland. 

Factions

The Brotherhood of Steel is a quasi-religious technological organization operating across the ruins of post-war North America, with its roots stemming from the American military. (Must be accepted. limited Spots. First come characters first serve)
@Madly33 Jackson E. Shadow 
@shadowsaint007Jennifer "Sparks" Svarowski

The Enclave takes pride in being the last known concentrated bastion of pure, unmutated humanity, aside from the unopened Vaults, and being the most technologically advanced faction in the wasteland. Most of the people in the Enclave don't believe that anyone else in the wasteland are human anymore. (Must be accepted. Limited Spots. First come characters first serve)
@Letter Bee Alan Anderson

Raiders, sometimes referred to as Bandits, are any group of wastelanders who pillage, plunder, murder, or otherwise ruin the day of anyone unfortunate enough to not be one of them. Known for brutality and no remorse for others. "Live and kill or Die"

The technology of the Slaver's Guild is primitive at best. They are not accepted into most cities although not needed for they reside in Old Mans Corner, successful and growing, the slave trade proves a prosperous profession. 
@KenyeIsMyLife Forty "Lucky Charms" Small

A Vault is a type of subterranean installation initially designed by the Vault-Tec Corporation, later constructed in collaboration with RobCo Industries. Officially, they were designed for the sole purpose of sheltering up to one thousand individuals in the event of a nuclear holocaust; however, in reality, they were part of a series of secret experiments orchestrated by the United States government. Not used to the ouside world they must adapt to what life is now, in the Wasteland.
@agentmanateeAstra Outterridge
@TheUnknowable Greg Holden
@Ciphra Alayna Spencer

Exposed to the wasteland, left to fend for themselves, radiated and starving for life, these men and women fight to live everyday against the harsh reality of the wasteland. Some that have been over exposed to radiation called Ghouls reside with them, discriminated against as seen as undead but live aside many.

@Everyone, note:

This is an AU fallout universe with some of the cannon events happening just not necessarily how it was done in game.

@shadowsaint007 is someone with a very hectic schedule; he works at IT. However, he still wants to RP, so I'm making a special allowance for him; if his schedule becomes really hectic, he is allowed to post one-liners.

This is just for shadowsaint as of right now but please of your scheduled is hectic as well let me or Letter Bee know. 

PM me with any questions you may have on RP, and please feel free to share ideas, new cities, weapons, unique character NPC's ETC. Always open to new things for the RP and would love you guys to let your imagination flow into this. 

The harsh Wasteland awaits..
