Fallout Paladin/Cleric rp?

[TheMusketMan]

Some religious establishment in the wasteland, that fights bad guys....or something. Interested?

[Dinh AaronMk]

Depends. Can I be a Bektashite?

[LeonNetallo]

Brotherhood of Steel?

I was thinking something more...wastelander-ish. I don't think there would be anyone in the wasteland with knowledge of Islam

No, something different. Brotherhood of Steel isn't that religious. They just don't want people getting advanced weaponry.

You doubt the Greater Detroit Area.

It seems the RPguild took a shit and double posted for me. So I'mma take this post and edit it to add:

Mormons survived, so I don't see why the Muslim-Americans would. After all the Vaults not only doubled as twisted experiments, but also a way to keep the populations of the United States alive. Just because there hasn't been any characters who suggest that Islam has ceased to exist doesn't mean it's completely shut down. There are after all plenty of places across the country with significant Muslim populations which would have been there before Fallout's history divergence, or in the case of any and all immigration between the forties and 2070 would have laid foundations for continuing growth of Arab-Americans.

And with the vastness of the former United States unexplored by the games it's very likely that they could still be there, like the Mormons in Utah. Just in a smaller concentration. And the area of Detroit - in particular Dearborn - are particularly unexplored by canon and just as well open to the wide and wonderful world of fanon.

And Dearborn holds call to the majority of the United State's currently 3.5 million Arab Americans. The 'burbs of Detroit also has a Bektashi chapter which was established in the fifties, the era the game holds claim to in its retro-future feel. Giving further support to such a fanon possibility.

Well then. Maybe we could do an Islam thing. We need more peeps interested though.

[Chapatrap]

I'd be interested in a Nation of Islam - Fallout thing.

[TheMusketMan]

Great, I would like to get at least 2 more people before getting started.

[VATROU]

Abbey of the Road

The Abbey of the Road is a location that is only mentioned in the Fallout Universe, supposedly they spread faith and collect relics. But perhaps they can do more than that. As for joining, sorry got too much on my plate right now, but maybe you guys will find some use with this.

[The Narrator]

Would join a Islam-Fallout Thing.

[Dinh AaronMk]

You know, I was sort of half-joking.

And now we got three possible characters looking to be post-apoc Muslims? Shit, I may need to revise and become Jewish.

[The Narrator]

Hindu all the way!
No seriusly not many reallife religions were touched in fallout, I think that could make it pretty interesting.

And then there'll be this?

[TheMusketMan]

Nice we got a couple of people. Guess I'll have to start researching the Islam faith.

As'ari vs Mu'tazilah.

Good thing to incorporate into that.

I see you played crusader kings quite a bit.
I should be pretty difficult for anyone to pray or make a pilgrimage to Mecca, maby they could have found a new place?

[TheMusketMan]

Just a heads up, the rp version of Islam will probably be distorted from the original. Since it's the wasteland, not everything will be perfectly preserved. Hell, the wastelanders may have their own version of a prophet or the Qu'ran. But the basics will be there.
