Fallout

[close] This is a post-apocalyptic/dystopian Role Play group. The actual story will be determined as we play through and I will update the "story" thread as we go so that new players can join in whenever they like. Please read the Rules page before starting then have fun!

[close] [ Based off of Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas. You do not need to have played those games to be able to roleplay. ] Only two years after the events of Fallout: New Vegas, and six years after the events of Fallout 3, a new problem arises far in the north. The Courier/Lone Wanderer hears of this through the grapevine, and after the events of New Vegas, travels to Alaska leaving all of their friends behind once again. Up north, in Alaska, two new groups have formed- the Blackhearts and the Goldstones. They are derived from the native groups of the land, but Alaska is a lot different than what it was like before the war. Alaska has become a sun-baked wasteland due to the nuclear war, which has messed up the weather patterns in the arctic circle. The Blackhearts are a group of people with mostly Aleut heritage, and the Goldstones come from the Eskimos. The two groups formed around one year ago, in the year 2283. They were created due to different opinions on how to govern Alaska, one of the only places left with little radiation and mutated creatures. The now Blackheart leader wanted to let anyone into their borders, while the Goldstones wanted to keep the population small in order to preserve the purity. The two groups formed, and the Blackhearts are the current governors, with the borders open. War is brewing on the horizon, however, and everyone is going to be a part of it, no matter their alignment...

[close] Its the year 20XX, after Russia, America and China fought, the world changed for the worse, radiation everywhere. People mutated, some for better, some for worse. Gangs appear, people start fighting. This is truly the beginning of the end of man kind. Can you survive?
