A man has responded to those who've made a definite decision on what they're doing. I'll reply to the rest of you lovely lot once you've picked a lead to follow, or somewhere to wander off to.

The woman smiled at Dusty, fluttering her eyelashes.

“Heya, hotstuff,” she said softly “that might just be the best darn thing I’ve heard all week.”

He voice was quiet, almost nervous. Was she new at this? Or was something else on her mind? It was hard to say.

“So where do you wanna-”

“OI! CORINNE!” A gruff voice barked from across the street.

In a flash, four scruffily dressed men, wielding chains and wrenches, came stomping over, sliding out of a patch of darkness.

“You think you can fuck with Mister Torres and just walk away, you little cunt?!” The biggest of the men snarled, barging past Dusty, and yanking hold of the woman’s wrist.

“You’re a dead woman, whore!” Hissed another of the thugs, as their leader shoved Corinne up against a wall.

“You’ve got some serious cajones, friend,” the bartender let out a gravelly laugh, sliding over a glass of rum, mixed with Nuka Cola “I’ve seen Regina’s Sharks throw folks out for less. Guess they don’t have an issue with you. Heh, just be glad you didn’t spill any blood; that never ends well.”

The big man picked up a glass off of the grimy counter, giving it a quick wipe over with a damp cloth.

“Speaking of spilt blood, the boss is always after folks who can handle themselves in a fight,” the bartender said, looking Dallen over “If you’re looking for work, I can always buzz you up.”

If there's another empty spot, mention me please.

@The Spectre

Will do, friend!

Fallout: Under Silver Skies [Closed]

I'm gonna assume we've lost Deb and Ophi, and as such...

@The Nexerus @Leidenschaft

There's two available spots, if you fine folks wants to jump in.

Fallout: Under Silver Skies [Closed]

Make sure to let me know if apps open up again!

@Leidenschaft

Will do! Thanks for expressing interest :D

So should we be forthcoming with what leads everyone intends on pursuing?

I was thinking I would join @Sol Grim at the Shark Club but I would hate for @Kingfisher's other options to go to waste if everyone plans on going there as well.

@Dismas

Honestly, its no hassle. The nature of RP's of this style is that there will always be leads that go unexplored, so just pick whatever 'quest' most appeals to you.

As an aside I apologize in advance if I overwrite in posts. I tend to get a little more passionate in instances like this where I'm more versed in Fallout lore and as a result like to focus a bit too much on the details.

@Dismas

No need to apologise! I like a good post to sink my teeth into, and I'm a bit of a junkie for Fallout Lore Myself. Write to your heart's content, my friend.

And another aside are we assuming @SimplyDebonair is still in the running? I noticed he hasn't been online in a while.

@Dismas

If he turns up soon I'll be sure to let him slip back in. If not, I'll open his spot back up to a newcommer.

We probably have bombs attached to us like in suicide squad ha.

@Sol Grim

No bombs. Just some Pagan branded Wasteland Justice if you run. Think the Regulators, or Legion/NCR Assassins.

Now, I assume escaping Reno is out of the question, yes?

@Andreyich

I mean, you're welcome to try.

“If you scream and shout like that, you’re gonna get yourself shanked real fast-like, kid,” O’Leary scowled, gazing down at the girl with tangled hair, before adding “I’m glad to see the rest of you are a bit more...agreeable.”

The Ghoul cracked his fingers, dead nerves brushing over rotten flesh.

“Anything you had when we picked you up will be returned to you on the way out. Don’t fight over shit, I don’t have time for that kind of headache. You’ll get a thousand caps now, and the other thousand once the job is done. Bianchi will take you to New Reno in the Old Highwayman. Once you’re there, you’re on your own.”

O’Leary reached down to his belt, removing a pair of plyers.

“Try anything stupid and you’ll end up full of lead.” He snapped.

The Ghoul stepped cautiously towards the former prisoners, slowly cutting through the wire which bound their wrists.

“There,” he grunted “now get the fuck outta here.”

New Reno. A city of vice and sin, even before the bombs fell. Within the concrete streets of this grimey labyrinthe, trash can fires flicker, and huge neon signs bathe the sidewalks in an electric glow. You can barely walk ten paces without passing a hooker or drug dealer.

The word is out that Donna Regina, and her associates within the Lazzari crime Syndicate, are looking for hired muscle to escort a courier up to Vault City, on some kind of clandestine mission. Donna Regina can be found at the Shark Club, one of the many casinos controlled by the Lazzari family.

Elsewhere, there are whispers of a planned insurgence against the Lazzari family, by the Torres family, who supposedly have the silent backing of the NCR. You can make contact with them at the Last Call, a bar in downtown.

Your driver, Bianchi, mentions that he has a cousin working for the Lazzari’s, by the name of Mancini. Mancini is a captain within the mob, who Bianchi says has work for those who’re interested. Mancini hangs out at the Desperado, another of the Lazzari’s casinos.

Whatever course of action you take, whether you split up or work together on the same lead, is up to you. Just remember that the Pagans have eyes everywhere...

This looks a little interesting. Is it still open for applications?

@The Nexerus

Not currently, I'm afraid. I'll be sure to let you know if applications open up again, at any point, though :)

Fallout: Under Silver Skies [Closed]

@Dragonbud Belongings have been taken. They'll be returned to you in a mo.
