Spoiler: Perks & Traits
Perks
(Name (Rank): Effect)
Mysterious Stranger (1)
From time to time, a Mysterious Stranger comes to your aid, with lethal results. At the start of a combat encounter, you may spend 1 Luck point. If you do so, then at any point during the scene, the GM may have the Mysterious Stranger appear, make a single ranged attack against an enemy you attacked, or who just attacked you, and then vanish. If you spend a Luck point and the Mysterious Stranger does not appear, the GM must refund the Luck point you spent.
The stranger has an AGI of 10, a Small Guns skill of 6, and counts Small Guns as a Tag skill. They always roll 3d20 for attacks, rather than 2d20, and their attack—using a custom .44 Magnum revolver—inflicts 8 Dice Piercing 1, Vicious physical damage.
They always appear within their weapon’s ideal range. Any attempt to find where the Stranger went after their attack fails.
Scrounger (1)
Whenever you roll to determine how much ammunition you find, you find more.
At rank 1, you find +3 Dice additional shots. At rank 2, you find +6 Dice additional shots. At rank 3, you find +10 Dice additional shots. The additional ammo you find is the same as initially found, for example, if you find 10mm ammunition, this perk increases how much 10mm ammo you find. If you find multiple types of ammunition, Scrounger applies to the ammunition with the lowest rarity (GM’s choice if there is a tie).
Each time you take this perk, the level requirement increases by 5.

Spoiler: Backstory
Lucky, ironically so nicknamed, was born in a little settlement near what was once known as 'Page' near Snake River. His given name at birth was Andrew, but due to his rather poor luck, he was often suffering from small bad events, from a strained ankle when out joining a hunt for wildlife food, to branches breaking and nearly hitting him, etc. etc.
It lasted into his teens like this when raiders attached the settlement and during the attack, his parents were killed, leaving him orphaned and shunned by the rest for his apparent 'poor luck' reason for the raiders having attacked.
Thusly ending up forced to leave and wander.
He'd eventually find a new place to settle and even found a girl, had a good couple of years... and then once more whatever poor luck was clinging to him reared it's ugly head and his wife-to-be died to a local Yao Guai attack.
This broke poor Andrew, or Lucky as he'd finally just accepted for it's irony - he left any kind of civilization, wandering along down Route 90, past Ritzville and further east until reaching Saint Joe National Forest. There he stayed for some years, shunning human or even mutant contact and just lived in a homemade tree-shelter, foraged for survival... and never had any further unlucky moments, even a bout with an infection was naturally fought off by his immune system - lucky finds like a hunting rifle he'd managed to scrounge suitable parts for and put it into functional condition, same with ammo scavenging when he went to nearby town ruins and such.
Recently, he'd finally left his recluse lifestyle and returned to a more civilized life, taking up mercenary work for caps, albeit not the greatest of negotiators, and less than interested in taking the contract work that left a bad taste in the mouth. He could live off the land without issue after all, so was not limited by caps and food purchase for survival.
Here's Lucky, now with a quick backstory written up as well - placed in the Washington area.Last edited by Hemnon; 2024-01-29 at 05:49 PM.

S P E C I A L 9 4 6 7 4 4 6 Spoiler: BackstoryA Militia Technician is busy patching up some wires inside a Ms. Nanny chassis. "They say this bot came from an orphanage... she probably never expected to be a killer. I wonder... how she'll handle it?"
A series of boot sounds chime as one of the optics lights up on the modified robot.
Next to the man, his Commanding Officer replies, "It doesn't matter much. These robots are built to serve, the purpose shouldn't matter. Get her online."
A few wires are tucked away and a series of switches are flipped before the panel is sealed as more of the robot starts reacting.
The Commanding Officer holds a clipboard, flipping through the pages as he speaks, "Model, Ms. Nanny. Serial Number, $4-5#4. Occupation, Hospice Care. Forget all of that. Today... you are remade. As you'll soon learn... our freedom has a price, and that price is blood."
The weight of her augmentations hold her down as she familiarizes herself with the new components. Mr. Gutsy Plating, a Flamer replacing her Pincer. She ignites her thruster and hefts her new hull off of the floor, hovering before the two men.
The Militia Technician does a quick once-over, checking various functions before stating, "She's online and appears to be fully operational sir."
The Commanding Officer sets the clipboard down and looks the robot in it's central optic and states, "You'll be reporting to me from now on. That new armor plating should keep you fighting longer than before. Make no mistake... War is coming. Your time caring for orphans is over. I expect hot coffee on my desk every day, and those optics on our perimeter every night. Do I make myself clear?"

You move by jet propulsion, hovering above the ground, unaffected by difficult terrain or obstacles. Your carry weight is 150 lbs., and it cannot be increased by your Strength or perks, but it can be increased by modified armor. You cannot recover from your own injuries or heal health points without receiving repairs (see Healing Robots, p.34).
You cannot manipulate the physical world like humans do, instead you have three of the arm attachments in the Arm Attachments table, determined by your choice of equipment pack. If you select an arm that features a weapon, you also gain 20 shots of ammo for that weapon.

Re: Bels Fallout RPG (OOC)
I was kinda trying to figure out what people were thinking up here. Would be nice to know what everyone's thinking, and to just keep conversation going amongtst ourselves outside the game, keeping people engaged.
Also, what does PNW mean?
Edit: Pacific Northwest, got it. I'm personally fine with that tbh, but I'd like to hear what the others say.
Edit 2: I deleted the above quoted text so that all the player sheets are together!Last edited by Nuptup; 2024-02-01 at 06:18 PM.

Re: Bels Fallout RPG (OOC)
I had expected the Washington area, that's at least what I'd seen in the recruitment some mentions of. It's also a non-game place so no issues with prior game knowledge messing with plot lines or whatnot. Also nice so just not be playing 'Mines of Phandelver - Fallout Edition' cuz everyone and their uncle's played that damn introductory adventure module for D&D.
Or at least nearly every Forgotten Realms Player has been part of that early-quest.
So yeah, more than happy to set it in that Washington area since I also based my character's quick-backstory in that place.
Dun make a lot of difference in the end for me. I'm Danish, so One Place in America is as good a place as another.Awesome avatars:

Re: Bels Fallout RPG (OOC)
If we want to start already together, with Sasha following Match and both Lucky and Natalie following Lincoln, Match could hypothetically be following Natalie. If Natalie is not hiding her Pipboy, Match would probably have approached her about helping to locate "his people" or at least scanning radio frequencies for military-sounding transmissions. Based on her sheet, she might be wanting his Laser Pistol in exchange for such help, which he literally can't do, as giving/trading away his sidearm would almost certainly mean a court martial. Even being at an empasse in that regard, assuming no better other options, Match would still be sticking around her (and thus Lincoln and Lucky too) in hopes of her changing her mind later. Likewise, given that Match is from WAY OUT OF TOWN, Lucky and Lincoln's familiarity with the area would also interest him.

Re: Bels Fallout RPG (OOC)
That's a pretty elegant way of bringing everyone together, not gonna lie. I like it! Though, I would say, since we're not officially starting until Monday, maybe it'd be a decent idea for each of us that has character connections, such as Sasha/Match, Match/Natalie, Natalie/Lincoln and Lincoln/Lucky could/should all do some "how did we meet" style messages in some direct messages or something, just to give those characters some interactions going into the game that pre-date day 1 of full group having been assembled. Just an idea/suggestion for everyone to do that. I think it'd be a pretty good idea is all!

Having gotten tired of only getting the low quality leftover food that the bigger, meaner members of his group tossed his way; he decided to leave and go solo. Finding out that things aren't so simple when you're on your own,he managed to find work. Completely unintentionally of course. He was hunting some wild dogs when he quite literally stumbled on a caravan being attacked by the pack he was hunting. Turning the entirety of the modest pack to gooey, bloody mush with his "Thump Stick" the trader and his remaining guards almost fired on him before they realized he was ignoring them in favor of feasting on the dogs. They introduced him to the joys of properly cooked and seasoned meat. In return he chose to act as a guard for them. Work for food, a simple arrangement that suits him just fine. In fact that is his definition of the lap of luxury.

Re: Bels Fallout RPG (OOC)
I'd just like to clarify that, it seems as though Natalie is responding to things Lincoln Ford says, as if he was Match. This might be due to the way the forum is set up, lack of non-speech declaration of character that is speaking, or a combination. But it seems like she's directing her anti-clubhouse topics at Lincoln, who has nothing to do with the BoS at all and taking his comments and adding them to that pile.
Character pictures in a "footer" similar to what I have with Sasha would help out with that I think. If everyone wants to get me a picture of their character, I can make everyone a matching set of in-combat and out of combat footers that will be as easy as possible to add to your posts to prevent others from getting characters mixed up!Last edited by Nuptup; 2024-02-13 at 05:25 PM.

Re: Bels Fallout RPG (OOC)
I think that would be great!
I am sorry if Linc is a little... over the top -- this is the first time I've played a "talkie" character in a play-by-post game in a long time -- up until Linc, it has been largely fellows with limited necks and a sleepy look in their eyes, to paraphrase Heinlein. Lincoln Ford is about as far from that as you can get.

Re: Bels Fallout RPG (OOC)
Lentrax would need to clarify that themselves. Maybe they are confused, maybe they aren't.
As far as I can tell, the reason folks IC have mentioned Match's goals but have made no mention of nor expressed an intention to pursue Natalie's motivations/goals is because OOC none of us have access to even a basic background blurb for Natalie (their roll20 page/sheet is unviewable to me at least). Every other character has at least a little something posted about themselves and their motivations/goals. Lincoln's is sparce, but I've just taken that to mean he hasn't shared much about himself.
Edit: Going back to the recruitment thread from last month (as I vaguely recalled mention of a GECK and her being a foot doctor), I found only Basic story concept is that she was the Vault Podiatrist, and was popular enough that the Overseer gave her the fools errand of finding somewhere to deploy the GECK so she could be made Overseer in his place., which based on her posted thoughts doesn't seem ACCURATE anymore as she now seems to be the primary medical person for her vault rather than just a popular podiatrist and she's on a vital mission rather than a fool's errand just hoping to get a promotion.Last edited by CardTrick; 2024-02-14 at 02:27 AM.

Re: Bels Fallout RPG (OOC)
To be fair, what is happening (the Overseer getting her out of the way, at least for a time, on a nearly impossible errand) and what the character perceives as happening might be two different things. Similarly, almost nobody is the villain in their own head canon -- most probably don't believe they are the mark in a political con game, either.
As for Linc, I sort of see him as a Wasteland trader, an "everyman" of the Fallout universe who has some ideals about helping others and making the wasteland marginally better for his having been there -- I didn't necessarily want or need an over-arching goal to start. To crib from an African proverb, the best time to plant a tree is twenty years ago, the second-best time is today. Not everything has to be life or death to be a good story.

Re: Bels Fallout RPG (OOC)
Heh speaking of not everything needing to be life or death to be a good story, that reminds me of a D&D game I had once that was set within a homebrewed setting, in an area where there were only halflings, gnomes and a few dwarves cuz underground access.
Everything was about keeping the idyllic life going. Deal with wildlife issue, help with broken tools, see who could last the most with a drinking contest.
It was a very fun game and I still miss it to this day... even tho it was like... what, 10... 12 years ago by now iirc?
But yeah, it was a clearcut set idea of 'no big evils to deal with, no grand quests or adventures. Just calm idyllic life defense jobs'.Awesome avatars:

Re: Bels Fallout RPG (OOC)
Sounds like a pretty fun little relaxed campaign!
As for the naming and declaration things, I think yes, it's the person typing who should be confirming they're addressing the correct character, but I also think it's up to EVERYONE to make it as easy as possible to identify their own character in their posts, whether that's by frequently and repeatedly stating things such as "Sasha does abc" so people can read that it's Sasha, or by having a visual reminder, such as my picture of Sasha.
