The Critic New Wanderer In Town

Member Seen 8 yrs ago

Name: Jake Towely







Age: 26

Personality: Jake is a very caring person, putting friends and family above all. Growing up in Tenpines Bluff, he is very loyal to the Minutemen, whether or not he thinks they're doing what's best. In his eyes, they gave him a chance at a decent life where one wouldn't have been otherwise. When it comes to defending his property and his friends, he would do anything except killing another innocent person.

Apparel/Armor: Road Leathers with leather chest piece and sturdy metal right arm

Weapon(s): Pipe Pistol w/ Reflex Sight, Baseball Bat

Settlement Occupation/Contribution: Settlement Guard/Local Builder

Biography: Jake grew up around Minutemen propaganda. Because of this, he feels the Minutemen truly have the Commonealth's best interests at heart. Even with his patriotism, he still feels that the Minutemen's isolation from the other groups in the Commonwealth might prove to be it's downfall. While all the other groups might be a bit too... Drastic and dramatic for his tastes, Jake feels that staying by itself could be the Minutemen's downfall.

Reason for Agreeing: After hearing that there was a mission to help the Minutemen, Jake immediately signed up. Of course, how could he not? The Minutemen had given him a chance at actually living in the Commonwealth, so accepting a mission for them was the least he could do to repay them.

Biography: Vault 120 was supposed to have its own experiment but on the day the nukes fell the Overseer was at a meeting off site. The only staff that was inside when it was sealed were completely inept and were soon found themselves facing a mutiny they were overthrown by the masses and killed. The residents had it hard at first trying to come up with a leadership but after many years they settled down on a democratic process that prospered. They strictly limited supplies and the birth rate to ensure the best use of supplies. Every crime had a single punishment, execution. When supplies began to run low they began trading. Many traders broke their laws and were executed; their possessions were confiscated and distributed as needed. Some times when traders were slow to pass through they would send out people to gather supplies. Taylor was one of the gatherers, she reveled going out. While out on her twelfth gathering mission a band of posing as a traders managed to take over and kill everyone inside. Taylor and other gatherers banded together and took back the vault. After fighting past raiders to the overseer’s office, they detonated a failsafe device that an earlier overseer had installed. The gatherers fled with moments to spare before Vault 120 was gone for good. Some of the gatherers stuck together others went their separate ways; Taylor was one of the ones to go out on his own. Taylor wandered around for a long time

Reason for Agreeing: She’s doing it for the caps.

Name: ASSAULTRON MODEL - 0321 // M4-VR-1K // Maverick

The Hero For Hire





Appearance: Like all automatons roaming Post-War America, Maverick's platform has sustained extensive wear and tear over the past two centuries. A roving husk of the Wastes, Maverick's at-one-time pristinely crafted platform has been exposed to countless battles as well as the harsh environment of the anarchic wilderness.

Extensively covered with a variety of scrapes, nicks, dents, and bullet-marks, Maverick can be perhaps most accurately described as "war-worn." The olive drab coat of paint along his platform has worn away in spots, revealing the rusting gray metal beneath. Especially severe injuries have exposed circuitry and electronics within, though apparent attempts to cover such injuries with jury-rigged tinkering have been made.

Most notably, a cratered scar is quite visible on Maverick's chest, made by a Gauss Rifle or Railway Gun of some sort. Shoddily repaired, the once-gaping wound was welded with strips of steel and a rusty Nevadan license plate, protecting the injury but depreciating the accentuated curvature of his chassis.

Age: 210

Personality: Influenced by audio dramas, films, and holotapes of the American Wild West, Maverick embodies many traits of the archetypal cowboy - toughness, exceptional strength and endurance, independence, and skill with a gun. Stylizing himself as the "outsider" or "mercenary," Maverick is laconic and soft-spoken, rarely one to mince words or strike up conversation. Morally ambiguous outside his own personal code-of-conduct, Maverick will shoot first and fight dirty if it is required by his self-defined sense of justice, and he shows absolutely no mercy to those he targets, fighting until no opposition is left. This has given Maverick a fearsome reputation throughout the Wastes by Raiders and Settlers alike, and legends are told of him single-handedly clearing Raider camps, leaving nothing behind but laser scores and strewn corpses.

Despite his infamous repute and proclivity towards guile tactics, Maverick is neither deceptive nor traitorous. He fulfills all contracts accepted for the reward given and maintains an air of professionalism at all times; his lack of base needs such as food, sleep, or social interaction making him a brutally effective operative with an implacable determination towards fulfilling his goals.

Suffering from a sort of "hero complex" as homage to virtuous cowboys defending towns from a notorious outlaw, Maverick is particularly drawn to the poor or defenseless, showing such particular affection through donation of his own personal finances, an offer of free services, or even "guarding" small settlements for a period of time before inevitably wandering once more, leaving nothing but legend and conjecture to his origins in his wake.

Nevertheless, the years of surviving (often alone) have made their mark on Maverick, who often struggles with questions to his own morality; whether his "heart" truly lies with the innocent settlers of the Wasteland, or instead to the almighty bottle cap. Only time will tell.

Apparel/Armor: Directly inspired from Clint Eastwood's apparel in The Man With No Name trilogy, Maverick stylizes himself as the eponymous character, reflecting the romanticized West in the modern-day Atomic Wasteland. As far as practical armor goes, Maverick is garbed only in a standard leather chest-piece, using it more as storage and aesthetic appeal than anything else. The upper-half of his body is draped in a knee-length green patterned poncho-cape, caked with dust and marked by bullet-holes from past encounters. A battered brown hat with a telescope crown sits securely atop his head, and a bent Regulator sheriff's badge is pinned to the front of his cloak; a memoir to times past. Oddly enough, Maverick has a fondness for equipping himself with equipment he cannot use. An empty snake-skin holster hangs from his right hip, and a string-less banjo is secured to his back with a leather strap.

Weapon(s): Maverick's primary weapon is a modified AER9 Laser Rifle barrel replacing his right forearm. Instead of typical Fusion Cells, the rifle draws power from Maverick's own internal energy stores, granting it a theoretically infinite amount of ammunition. However, the gun can overheat and even damage the sensitive fiber optics and crystal arrays if abused. To complete his arsenal, Maverick is equipped with the standard-grade Assaultron head-laser and claw for short/medium ranged combat, though he uses the former as sparingly as possible due to its strain on his systems. Maverick also keeps about three frag grenades secured on his person at all times, though generally reserves their use for flushing out opponents in cover or dealing with closely-contained groups.

Settlement Occupation/Contribution: "Town Protector", occasional Scout

Biography: As a wanderer by nature who takes heavy inspiration from the drifters of the West, Maverick speaks very little of his own past, leaving much of who he is or where he comes from as a mystery. His motivations and desires are guided by a catalyst of some sort, and his obsession with the Wild West is hinted as having been instilled in him by a person, as to who this person was or their significance in Maverick's life remains unknown.

Well-traveled, Maverick has made a name for himself in the Capital Wasteland, Mojave Desert, and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts as a powerful and dangerous mercenary, treading into locations where few, even-seasoned veteran bounty hunters would dare go. Storytellers, however, are never consistent as to whether Maverick is a roving wanderer, a cruel hunter hell-bent on destruction, or a benevolent judge who dispenses punishment upon the wicked.

Having never formally allied himself with a faction aside from the Regulators, Maverick's sudden appearance at Tenpines Bluff offering his services was spontaneous and without warning, but there appears to be significance behind the decision - significance that perhaps even he is unaware of.

Reason for Agreeing: Unknown
