With all the recent role playing games going around I was thinking that it would be cool to have one one on the forums. If you havent HEARD of this game here is a brief history of the game. :spoiler: Basiclly in the year 2077 All of Earths resources ran out and China invades America thinking that they're needed resources were in Alaska. After China got beat back America sent Nukes to china and they retailiated. Your proably wondering where Europe is in this? I dont blame you if your not because no one cares about them ( Sorry deathtrap ) But they had a nuclear war about 100 years before and never really recovered. BUT before the Apocalpyse humanity sealed themselves in GIANT Vaults. Out of the 150 only 15 were actually used to save people. The others were used for expirements by the rements of the US goverment, but before we get into that a week after the world ended the world was sent into a Nuclear Winter where all the dirt and dust rose up and blocked out the Sun and the people who weren't in those vaults eithier turned into mutants or died. When the people came out of the vaults they started to make new towns and tribes across America. Some became sucessful... others didn't. They made factions and nations Known Nations: NCR The Commonwealth New Vegas Republic of Dave The Legion Known Factions: Brotherhood of Steel ( East and West ) Enclave Outcasts Reileys Rangers Ceasaurs Legion NCR Rangers The Unity Raiders :Spoiler: After all of the real factions are taken you can make them up. Feel free to use the Fallout Wiki http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Fallout_Wiki Insert your Faction Name Location Size of faction Main purpose of faction Ex: Brotherhood of Steel ( East ) Washington D.C Large To find Technology from before the war and research it. Edit: I play the role of an all seeing ' God. ' all conflicts are resolved through my judgement.
I'll take the Midwest BOS. Near Chicago. Large. To collect and research technology as we unite the land. Also, there was already one of these: http://josefvstalin.com/threads/emperor-of-america.5255/ It just never panned out. But then again, I DID give some good reasons why it was a terribly lopsided battle in my posts there... Actually, the max occupancy was usually around only 1000, making the max of all of the vaults around 150,000.
Okay well I'll just make up my faction. Republic of Oakland Southern California (Where Oakland city is) Small Rebuild civilization from the ground up
Cheifdom of Romland, Based out of Los Angeles to San Diego Small 4 Tribes Create a Kingdom for the our empire. Our first action is is to send a Message to the NCR and Let them now of our position in the Southern region, we have 3 Rifle Squads of 20 men and 1 Sniper squad of 5 men, We also send a message to the Republic of Oakland to ask them to help us fight the NCR.
WE send back a message to romland and tell them that we would not want to participate in this act of violence. It is not in our best interest to fight petty wars against stronger factions. We suggest romland to not fight the NCR.
Faction Name: Caesar's Legion Location: Mojave and American midwest Goal: to take Hoover Dam and overrun the NCR Caesar orders an emmissary to be sent to Rom asking for cooperation against the NCR.
Our nation excepts, and with the discovery of a Vault in Los angeles, our numbers swell and our Tech grows. A ghoul caravan asked if they could join our nation, We declined and Blasted them to smithereens. Our numbers grow to 12 rifle squads and 4 sniper squads. we haven't officialy declared war on the NCR yet, but We are raiding there Caravans.
The Mid-western BOS begins to consolidate its position, building its economy and infrastructure and preparing to push East into the areas of the Commonwealth and the Raider Collective as well as pushing back the hated Enclave in the upper Mid-west.
Week 1: A recent Sandstorm sweeps through Central California covering up the roads. Most Caravans get lost in the storm on way to Vegas.
The nation of Romland sends it raiders to the Mojave to get more Caps and weapons from the stranded Caravans
Faction Name:Tawahon tribes Location South-East Midwest Size of faction Small/medium Main purpose of faction:Survive,bring hope to the people,make peace with the world around them.
Oakland starts leasing land to farmers. With the discovery that corn was mutated to double yields and quicker growth by radiation, corn fields have been springing up everywhere. The granaries have been filling up with food faster than we can east. Oakland is looking for people of any background to the city as long as they are not currently involved with criminals and raiders.
The unity (Glory to Master) Fucking huge To assimilate all. Glory to the Master's army The Unity will bring about the master race. Master! Master! One able to survive, or even thrive, in the wasteland. As long as there are differences, we will tear ourselves apart fighting each other. We need one race. Race! Race! One goal. Goal! Goal! One people... to move forward to our destiny. Destiny.
The Republic of Oakland would like to recognize "The Unity's" goal to survive but would suggest that they don't go to war with every race. We don't need war tearing up the world anymore than it already is. OOC: Is it even fair for custom factions to start out huge? It seems like cheating.
Even after the apocalypse, people still have a spiritual side. A catholic church in Oakland has been untouched by the nuclear explosions still has everything inside and outside intact. A copy of the Latin Bible was found undamaged by the nuclear radiation. Maybe God protected this place so that we may worship him. Nevertheless, the church is active and many worshipers go there. Even pilgrims come to the church and say its a "Holy Site" because of its condition. The church would only bring good to the town as people want to move in to Oakland and the morals of the town improve greatly.
The teachings of the Children The beliefs of the Cathedral's Children are based on the belief that the nuclear holocaust (referred to as the Holy Flame, the Sacred Fire), invoked by human greed, corruption and selfishness was a chance to begin anew. It is the proverbial light that nearly destroyed humanity. The Master is the antithesis, theDark God, waiting in the Darkness below (quiteliterally), leading his children into a new era of peace and unity. He brings about the Unity, through which the Nexus of Rebirth will be reached, during which all the worthy ones will be baptized in the holy FEV and become the next generation of humans. When everyone reaches this next stage of evolution, the Age of Peace will come, when there will be no more war and no more suffering. The Children believed in expanding their influence through all possible means. Nightkin will attack enemies for cities assisted by Cathedral cultists, while loyal servants would head into the wastes and establish hospitals and offer healing to the body and the spirit.
A expedition into the Downtown areas of LA have discovered a Apple Orchard, but these apples are huge, and have no radiation in them, Our scientists (Bob) think that the original seeds were Mutated but now the Radiation is gone and the seeds have kept there genetic mutation, Our population grows as we build a town around the Apple orchard and name it Applebloom, we move our capital to The ruins of Downtown LA and our new city Applebloom.
OOC: For some reason, I don't think those hospitals are meant for healing based on your faction's goal. Plus, are you a mutant faction because you working with the nightkin sound preposterous if you are a human faction.
