How many people here have read the Fallout Bible? I'd love to rp as a Psyker.

@Legion-114

I have to be honest I haven't read it.

I have played all of the major games, I completed 1 & 2 again last year before 4 came out. However I have put as much time into NV as I have all of the other games put together.

I don't think we need to worry about the finer points of canon if we are thinking about going away from the major locations. We have to worry even less if we are going for a decade or so after the bombs fell or even as they fall, pick up from where the beginning of 4 stopped before the jump.

(I am going to assume that everyone has played or at least read the plotlines for all of the major games, don't want to keep worrying about spoilers.)

I thought that the Fallout Bible wasn't considered as canon anymore?

@DrunkasaurusRex

The Bible are the dev notes for FO 1 and 2, not Van Buren and therefore are canon. :3

@Orion

The worry was the timeline, because the death of the Master brought the end to Psykers. My main worry was that people would say you couldn't have such character because it's not canon/ in the games.

Yup, as I recall it was a collection of update posts from Black Isle Studios.

I have never read the fallout Bible.

If it took place somewhere that hasn't yet been explored in the canon universe we can create our own creatures, factions (though preferably just as part of the universe, not to actually play) and various other things. That would be cool. Although since it'll apparently be very early on we'd be pretty free with that stuff anyone. A lot can change in two centuries after all.

[KiritoAsuna]

If we are going for early on than the main problem would be radiation sickness. If you are a goul than stages of deterioration would be early on and would probably be something you wouldn't want to show anyone. That being said being a goul seems interesting in early appocolyptic times

[KiritoAsuna]

So are we still brain storming on this or do we have a basic plan drawn out?

[tech]

I'm thinking Denver region. I've got some basic stuff written out hopefully I can get it all up tomorrow night. I'm thinking of about 2127 as a setting meaning radiation is a lot less of a problem and some settlements/factions have established themselves but it resembles a more mad-max esque world (Large raider gangs, little trade etc etc.) at this point than Fallout.

If anyone has cool ideas shoot me a message and we can talk about implementing it into the lore.

Once a story and everything is built I'm totally down to start

Many moons ago on a forum far from here, I had a Fallout RP going with a buddy of mine. This was mostly set around the New York area and had my character, an Enclave separatist officer, diving into the Enclave and getting pulled into this brutal civil war after their defeat at Raven Rock in Fallout 3. My buddy basically was a synth from Massachusetts (keep in mind this was waaaay before Fallout 4 was even announced) who was escaping from her captors and enjoying the ride down the coast.

At the same time some people wanted to do New Vegas stuff so we set up NCR military policemen in an occupied New Vegas hunting down a gang or something. Although to be fair, the people playing the gangster duo were super Mary Sues and we were just looking for an excuse to shut them down a bit. The setting honestly wasn't as fun and inventive as our original characters.

Those could be some ideas.

@TheEvanCat

We've confirmed Pre FO1, so sadly Enclave are off limits.

And New Vegas is done to death.

@Legion-114

Yeah, it's been like five years or something, right?

I also wasn't sure what you had *confirmed* confirmed.

[Legion-114]

We still going ahead?

[Orion]

I am still good for it.

[TTNoobs]

@Legion-114 This has piqued a lot of interest, I'm sure one will be set up one way or another

[tech]

Hopefully I can get the OC up tomorrow. Just a heap of lore writing haha. If anyone still has ideas I'm always open to them.
