Fallout: The Vegas Affair

Is this still alive and kicking? If so I'll put in a sheet tomorrow.

@Jonesy

Join the discord bud, we'll be starting very soon. You chimed in at just the right time.

Fallout: The Vegas Affair

Sorry, had Internet outage at my place. Back now.

I do have a bit of an issue, one being that I didn't want anyone being a ten in any of the SPECIAL stats. Additionally, if he's so intelligent, why are his only skills combat based? I'd like to see the Special altered slightly, 9 is okay, but I suppose I should have added the caveat no one can have a ten in anything. For example, Arcade Cannon is the only Intelligence 10 character in FONV if I recall correctly. With no specialisation in any non combat skill it appears that Core is just smart for the sake of being smart.

Also, he's not killing a deathclaw one on one. That part will have to come out. Non negotiably, they're the big bads for a reason.

Him obviously being a Synth doesn't really remedy any of these for me unfortunately, not to mention that I have precisely zero idea why he'd have any compulsion to go to Anchorage.

Unfortunately I'm going to have to reject this CS for now. Although I like the concept. So pending adjustments I'd be happy to consider him. Join the discord so there can be a bit more communication please

EDIT: "Core was forcibly detained by the NCR after an altercation involving a Ranger wherein Core nearly beat the Ranger to death with a pair of spiked knuckles due to an indiscretion on the part of the Ranger which caused grievous injury to an local wastelander whom Core was friendly with. This incident involving the ranger or their involvement was never confirmed or denied and in the end Core was eventually released due to pressure with the Legion at Hoover Dam at the time. "

This has to go. I don't know what NCR Rangers you encountered in the series. But the ones I'm aware of would have left you with a bullet in your head in a mirelurk den for doing that.

Am working up a bio, wanted to put this up just incase there is a character limit for the story.

Core (W.I.P)

Core stands at 5'11" and weighs approx. 165 lbs. at least on a good day. His hair which is usually kept short and messy is a fading salt and pepper blend mostly salt though now. His face is slightly gaunt but not entirely unhealthy looking with deep age lines and a slightly kept beard of the same color as his hair. His eyes are almost a steel gray and often have a sharpness to them. Even though his body is aged he still has a well-kept figure and only has a little actual fat among the muscle. He is not perfectly toned anymore but he does have a healthy look to him.

As for identifying marks Core has his fair share that you could pick from even though most of them, he keeps concealed by the clothing he usually wears. The first most predominant scar is the one across his throat, its smooth for the most part, much like a fine blade made it, it is thin but very noticeable when in close proximity. His second predominant scar is the one that goes across his cheek which looks like he was grazed by a bullet. His final mark is not a scar as much as a portion of his left ear is missing down around the lobe, the ear looks jagged like it was sliced off with a crude knife.

Yeah still accepting, 9 characters is probably going to be the cap. But at the rate we're gaining applicants etc I think it's good you've put up the shell. Looking forward to seeing it finished!

Please note that these stats are mostly just for me to get to know your character's skillset, however they will also essentially provide; for lack of a better term, a sense of power scaling. If you put a low number into say, unarmed, I'm not going to prevent you from knocking someone out with a punch. However questions will be asked if you continue to do so, without sufficient cause.

@Athol

Very much looking forward to seeing it finished!

Fallout: The Vegas Affair

Y'know what? I'll throw my lot in this as well. Why not? In your universe, do synths exist or the institute in general?

Thinking of having a raider lady from Boston area. Traveled the land a bit before signing up as a mercenary for the NCR.

@Timemaster

Climb aboard

Fallout: The Vegas Affair - Interest Check Thread

Just a little note that relevant updates have been made to the thread.

Fallout: The Vegas Affair

I'm in the UK so GMT. However I'll be moving to Albania soon, so I'll be in GMT +1. And yes, setting up a discord is on my to-do list for today

Fair warning, btw; I might still not have time to join.

Also... Are you okay with Anime Faceclaims?

@Letter Bee

I have no problem with whatever faceclaim you desire to use, so long as it is an accurate representation of the description you provide. The description is the part I care about, the faceclaim is an added bonus.

Fallout: The Vegas Affair

Hehehe, I couldn't possibly have any idea what you mean. 😉

I'll have Sarah's background finished by the end of the day now that the OOC is mostly finished. Hopefully we'll see a new face or two in the characters tab by then too. Really looking forward to this RP.

I love it, but wouldn't Caesar be dead from his brain tumor by the RP's present date?

@Letter Bee

He SHOULD be, yes 😉
