Hey guys, I'm really bored.
Yeah, so I decided I wanna' try doing an all OC Fallout story, and the cool thing is ya'll get to help me out. Lucky you.
I'm only accepting three characters, and it's not a first come first serve thing, it's a "I'll only accept this character if I like them" thing.
Now here's how we'll make sure everything is nice and orderly, and to make sure we don't get any Mary Sues or Stu's. Because this is Fallout, you're going to be making your characters like you would in the game, with the exception of not having perks or traits to choose from. I'll be posting a form below in a bit, but first I wanted to make sure ya'll knew what to do.
S.P.E.C.I.A.L.
Just like in the game, every single one of your stats starts at 5, which is plain old average. Now while being average may sound boring as all get out, there's no need to worry. You'll also be getting 5 points that can be added out amongst your stats to raise them and give yourself an edge. You can also lower your already average stats to horrendous levels to get more points, the downside being you could possibly have a brain dead shuffling deck of cards as a character.
Skills
Just like in the game, you get to tag three skills in the beginning, making them your go to skill set. Each tagged skill will be raised by 15 points, and no more. All skills start at 15 and are raised through being tagged and by how high or low the S.P.E.C.I.A.L. associated with that skill is.
Races&Alignment
For races, I'm going to limit it down to just Humans and Ghouls, since most people are terrified by Super Mutants, and nobody really wants to play a Cazador (At least I hope not)
For Alignment, I'm willing to accept anything so long as you realize that your character is supposed to be traveling with three other people. So you can be evil to a point, but please try not to make a character that is chaotic neutral, as most people tend to mistake it for chaotic random.
Equipment
Now seeing as how everyone will be starting out on the lower levels, having super high grade weapons and armor is a bit out of the question. So for this to work, just post the form with the weapon you want, and we'll discuss if it works or not for the current setting, or if another weapon would be better. Same for armor, except Power Armor is strictly forbidden.
Setting
The setting of the story will be in New Vegas, the same time as the game itself was set, only this world will be like the Courier never existed.
