    This will be a collaboration between myself and Cerulean. It will take place after the events in Fallout 4, but the location will once again start out in the Mojave Desert like it's predecessor New Vegas. It will incorporate elements from Fallout 1-4 and New Vegas but will not be following up on the events of these games in any extensive detail, just what will be required to move the plot forwards, drive character interactions, and create missions with objectives for the characters to accomplish.

    This story will take place in the year 2084, one year after the events of Fallout 4, and seven after New Vegas. The story will start with my character Marsalis, a wise-cracking, ass-kicking, tough-as-nails former NCR Ranger. He retired when he'd seen enough killing and bloodshed between his fellow NCR Rangers, and whatever tribal gangs the NCR's push left them to confront. He thought he'd never go back to a life where he killed so freely again...he was wrong.

    When his sister, Arianna, who helped take care of their elder father, Michael Deschain who was otherwise known as "The Chosen One", grandson to the Vault Dweller--and founder of New Arroyo--delivered a message that would see Marsalis once again put his Ranger uniform back on. Bidding the sister who he had raised since he was five years old good-bye, he would saunter off into the horizon and once again into a world of peril, intrigue, mistrust, and savagery.

    Little did he know what awaited him in New Vegas, was a close friendship unlike any he had before or chosen to try and have since his days as a Ranger--and a destiny that would eventually see him, his friends, and his sister face the inhospitable frozen wastes of Washington State deadlocked in nuclear winter through bounty hunting for the NCR. It would be here that he would come to know, and even more surprisingly, come to love one of his fellow companions, even risking life and limb to protect her.

    By the end, the gruff and weathered Marsalis finds himself in possession of the last remaining G.E.C.Ks available--what he will do with it to be seen. Will he give it to the highest bidder? Will he allow for it to fall into the hands of those how would use it for selfish and nefarious means? Or will he use it for the betterment of the people as a whole?

    - This story will undoubtedly feature grisly violence in copious amounts and detailed sexual encounters.

    -Players will be expected to write full paragraphs with good punctuation and grammar. No one or two liners spaced out. Paragraphs are usual 5-10 fully articulated sentences that pertain and presents a single idea.

    -If anyone wishes to be my characters love interest, that could play into a storyline so see me first before creating a character.


    -This is just an intrerest check and OC.



  • - You get 5's in all stats, to begin with for a total of 35 points. You get 5 extra points to place in anywhere. This brings the total up to 40. You may take points from stats as you see fit, and place them where you wish. You may not have more than 40 points to start off with. You will almost always start out at level 4 unless otherwise directed.

  • Now, these will have the added stipulation that you can only have as many as your Endurance number. So, if it's 4 then you can only have 4.

    Additionally, only one of each type of implant can be taken, so they can't be stacked. You can't have two Agility, or two Strength, etc. I am not allowing the increasing of Endurance from drugs, apparel, or the Endurance implant itself, to have any effect on increasing the maximum number of implants that can be installed. However, raising Endurance via the Intense Training perk does allow for a single additional implant to be installed.

    Since the effects of implants that increase SPECIAL statics will be counted as a permanent increase to the respective static, they will also affect the perks available to you.

    -Some Implants may require another implant first before it can be installed. This will count against your END check. These will have "*" next to them. Some may also come with detriments as well as benefits.


    The combat implant enhances the resistance against certain types of damage. The four known are:

    Dermal impact armor (low impact) = Damage Resistance against Kinetic rounds and explosion damage.

    * Dermal impact assault enhancement (high impact) = Dermal impact armor upgrade - further Damage Resistance against kinetic rounds (pistols, rifles, shotguns, miniguns, etc) and explosion damage, Charisma -1


    Phoenix armor implants (low thermal) = Damage Resistance against plasma, laser, and fire.
    * Phoenix assault enhancement (high thermal) = Phoenix armor implants upgrade -further Damage Resistance against fire, laser and plasma, Charisma -1


    The physical implant increases one of the SPECIAL stats by one. The seven known are:

    Hypertrophy accelerator = +1 Strength

    Optics enhancer = +1 Perception

    Nociception regulator = +1 Endurance

    Empathy synthesizer = +1 Charisma

    Logic co-processor = +1 Intelligence

    Reflex booster = +1 Agility

    Probability calculator = +1 Luck


    The special implant adds special effects:

    Nemean sub-dermal armor = +4 Damage Threshold

    Phoenix monocyte breeder = Hit point regeneration

  • In the year 2077, the Great War began with massive columns of fire surging to the heavens and ended with the smoldering irradiated ash that blotted out the sight of the sun on that warm, sunny day of the 23rd of October, 2077. Billions upon billions died on both sides; taken without warning or hesitation. But the war between China and the United States had been ongoing for some time before the skies were blackened and bruised and the landscape of the world was forever changed.

    It began, as most wars do, over a scarcity of resources. But to understand the world we have today, we first need to understand the world we had yesterday. In 1927 civil unrest in China led to outright civil war. Though the conflict was briefly suspended due to the Japanese invasion of China setting off the Sino-Japanese war in World War II; when the Americans unleashed the first unleashed the world's first atomic bomb the whole world stopped tearing itself apart and looked towards the blinding flashes of light followed by the bang that was heard around the world. One that ended years of bloody conflict in an instant between the American forces and its allies, against the Japanese.

    But while they could retire in relative peace and prosperity, a radical new group of communists led by Mao Zedong, finally got the upper hand. And, on October 1st, 1939, The People's Republic of China replaced the old regime, who's members that escaped the bloodbath, fled to the island of Formosa. Little did the world know at the time, that something was transpiring that would send the world spiraling out of control. The relations between America and China were strained well before their eventual conflict; for China became a global powerhouse, it too sought out resources as it raced with America to tap the oil fields deep in the Pacific Ocean. The work that was done by Chinese geologists and engineers, was ultimately sabotaged by American spies and led to the Americans tapping into the oil reserve first.


    In early 2066, an American missile cruiser, the Ebon Atoll, is sunk by the U.S nuclear submarine USS Interference in a case of mistaken identity with a nuclear missile--all hands on board are lost. It is one of the worst disasters to have occurred since World War II. Denver begins rationing food; the Midwestern U.S and Mexico experience shortages can't supply it with the food it needs; riots begin and the National Guard are called out.

    In the spring, as the oil reserves dry up, China, teetering on economic collapse due to its burgeoning dependency on crude oil, begins to be more aggressive in trade talks with the U.S; their unwillingness to export oil to trade breaks down relations with China. Adding further insult to Sino-American relations, the first crude fusion cell is revealed. A result of the power armor project, it was to be used with devices designed for fusion cell beginning to be manufactured. Incorporating fusion cell technology into the U.S infrastructure begins but is slow--too slow. It can't supply the power to the various areas in the U.S that need it. Nearly 11 years later, few sections of the U.S actually use fusion energy.

    In the winter of the year 2066, the Chinese invade Alaska. Led by General Jingwei, they forcibly lead an assault on the American Alaskan oil pipelines for Beijing. The lifeblood of America at the time. The Anchorage Front Line is established and will become the first and most important battlefield of the war. Canada feels the pressure placed on them by the U.S to allow American planes to fly in their airspace and troop movement along the ground. Tensions rise but eventually, Canada backs down. It sets the stage for the Annexation of Canada in 2076.


    Nearly a year later in 2067, with the first and newly built T-45d power armor being deployed there, the Anchorage Reclamation truly began. Though the fighting had long since started, and though it didn't have nearly the amount of mobility as future versions, with the T-45d, the Americans became incredibly effective at destroying Chinese armored vehicles and cutting swathes through enemy infantry. It's ability to carry enormous loads of ordnance that is capable of devastating entire towns while keeping the wearer relatively safe, becomes noted. China scrambles to make its own variants, but are far behind technologically compared to the U.S.

    Despite the obvious technological superiority in regards with the Power Armor Suit, it would still take the U.S 10 years to reclaim on January 10th, 2077.

    In 2069 Canada felt more pressure from the U.S military, as it relied on Canadian resources for the war effort. A large majority of the woodlands it was once known for, and other resources are extracted from the country almost to the breaking point. Many Americans call the once proud nation 'Little America' as Canadian protests go unheard. By March of that year, Vault 13 is completed. It is the last of the Vaults to be built on the West Coast. Practice drills for entering the vault and procedural events take effect; because it is completed late, the "cry wolf" effect is not as pronounced as other Vaults.

    In 2070 the first of
    Chryslus fusion driven cars become available to the public for the first time. They are large but reassuringly American. Limited quantities lead to them being heavily priced--despite this, however, in many of the locations where they are sold, they are sold out of stock. By this point, many of Chryslus's factories have been converted for the war effort.

    June 3rd, of 2072 The US begins to Annex Canada, something that won't be fully realized until 2076. With the excuse of possible sabotage to the Alaskan pipeline, the U.S has all it needs to finalize the annexation of Canada. This 'goal' was made as far back as 2067. Missiles for the B.O.M.B or Ballistic Orbital Missle Bases, are shipped to centers all over the US to be carried into space and installed on the orbiting B.O.M.B satellites. The process, while slow, is carried out regularly.


    In August of 2073 B.O.M.B-01 is completed, and partially functional for security and maintenance bots, using only a temporary onboard generator for power, all the facility needs are the manual input launch instructions, codes, and the main reactor. As late as September, the Chinese are becoming ever more aggressive in their use of biological weapons. The U.S government begins to feel countermeasures are needed. The Pan-Immunity Virion Project, later to be dubbed the F.E.V or Forced Evolutionary Virus is founded, with research beginning at West Tech Research Facility in Southern California.

    In 2074, despite their claims of taking Alaska back from the communist Chinese in what was called the Gobi Campaign, The U.S sends power armor units with infantry and mechanized units to mainland China but they are bogged down with heavy fighting and losses on each side in the Gobi Desert. This puts further strain on the resources of the U.S war machine. On June 24th of that year, Negotiations between the U.S President and other world leaders breaks down; the dramatic end came with the then President walking out during talks about oil with other countries. The heated debate came to a boiling point when the President declares the last remaining reserves of petroleum will only by the U.S and the U.S alone.

    Sometime in 2075 the Sierra Army Depot A.I "Skynet" becomes aware. On March 21st of that year, the Pan-Immunity Virion Project continues with batch 10-11; in the wake of successful experimentation on single-celled organisms, with experiments on plants being held off, the Pan-Immunity Virion Project is renamed: Forced Evolutionary Virus. F.E.V tests continued at West Tech, with batch 10-11 through May 9th with the testing on flatworms; tests see an increase in size and resistance to pathogenic infections. Tests on insects yield poor results and are postponed by Major Barnett.

    Sometime during May, Vault 112 closes prematurely; Stanislaus Braun's sadistic desires become known to the residents via the virtual reality modules. June 30th sees the continuation of the FEV batch 10-11 with white mice as subjects. Markedly increased size, muscle density and intelligence are noted. In November, unidentified contacts, rumored to be Chinese stealth subs of the Chinese "Ghost Fleet" are spotted by U.S monitoring stations A-31 and B-19 but no further sightings are recorded. On November 9th, FEV experiment, batch 10-11 on rabbits is concluded. Increased size, intelligence, and aggression
    is noted; it is questionable rather that the flatworms were more aggressive, or they were simply angrier than normal.

    December 17,
    2075 The general of the U.S military, visits the Switchboard facility where he receives a report, by P.A.M, telling him that the Chinese far outpace the U.S in stealth technology; that the spotted vessels that the stations A-39 and B-1 had picked up were very likely to have been from the Chinese "Ghost Fleet", an elite naval unit that had stealth-capable submarines. When the general first dismisses the claim, P.A.M then responds by informing that no actionable intelligence has come from the Shaanxi Province since November of 2072 except for an increase in complex polymers and key synthetic compounds; P.A.M then indicates that these components are consistent with research into stealth technology on a large scale. The general tells the Predictive Analytic Machine, or P.A.M that unless there is concrete to substantiate the claim, it is conjecture.

    In 2076, on January 3rd, a military team commanded by Colonel Spindel is dispatched to West Tech to oversee the monitoring of the facility for reasons and concerns of national security. This is done due to fears of international espionage; Captain Roger Maxon, grandfather of John Maxson, the High Elder of the Brotherhood of Steel in 2161 is among those under Colonel Spindel.

    On January the 12th, with the splicing of several new genetic sequences into the test viruses, several dogs are infected with Batch 10-11a at West Tek; although increased strength is noted, increased intelligence is not. Using batch 11-011, experiments on raccoons is pursued with the same results. With several of the subjects in question attempting to escape, Major Barnett has the project scrapped; two of the subjects remain unaccounted for. Scott Cambell and Brian Freyermuth intended these escaped subjects form an intelligent animal community Northwest of The Glow, called "Burrows".

    Sometime during 2076, the annexation of Canada is completed; Canadian protesters and rioters are shot on sight, and the Alaskan pipeline swarms with military personnel. Photos of atrocities committed surface in the U.S causing further civil unrest, distrust, and more protests. By April the 15, once all the secondary tests and documentation are finished, all dogs infected with the FEV Batch 11-101a are terminated at a safe distance.

    In June of that year, Power Armor prototypes are completed resulting in the T-51b; the pinnacle of armors before the Great War. Many are sent to China and cut large swathes through the Chinese forces. Chinese resources are strained past the breaking point, and many of the supply lines of nations that China had annexed, begin to break down.
    By August, though, food and energy shortages causing discontent and rioting all across the U.S; military personnel are then deployed to restore order, contain rioters and many make-shift prisons are made to contain them. A state of emergency is soon declared, followed then by martial law.

    In October, the production of missiles for the Ballistic Orbiting Missile Bases grinds to a halt due to budget cuts to production, The Reservation once called Los Alamos Nuclear Testing Facility is put on reserve. On October 4th, 15 chimpanzees are infected with FEV Batch 11-111. It is the most successful experiment to date; growth and immunities surpass all other subjects and the military practically drools over the results. Plans are put in motion, in secret, small quarantined towns in North America to test the FEV. The Mariposa Military Base construction is sped up in anticipation of the move from West Tek to allow for military supervision.

    In the year 2077, automobile coolant prices skyrocket with the regular being priced at $7450.99 and the premium at $8500.99 per gallon. Robert House, a self-styled proprietor, and CEO, and later, owner of the New Vegas Strip, places himself in suspended animation. A Chinese sabotage attempt soon takes place afterward. When a new, unidentified plague hits Denver, the citizens burn down large portions of the city in fear of contamination, and in their anger over their treatment. Many try to flee by car, only to find themselves stranded and having to walk, their cars congesting the freeways trapping everyone behind them.

    On January the 7th, Major Barnet orders all research on the Forced Evolutionary Virus (FEV), to be transferred to the newly-constructed Mariposa Military Base despite the objections of the researchers. On January 10th, 2077 the reclaiming of Anchorage, Alaska is finally realized; the Anchorage Front Line is again held by American forces. On January 22nd, the first domestic in the U.S for the use of power armor for crowd and quarantine control is seen for the first time; veterans formally serving in China and on the Anchorage Front Line, find themselves fighting Americans back home. As the food riots increased, many civilians are killed and several soldiers desert, from the U.S and Canada. They are caught and taken to military prisons.

    On an unknown day in February, FEV research is leaked to the world through an unknown source. Protests from across the U.S and leaders from nations around the world, make accusations that the U.S is responsible for the new plague. The FEV is seen as a threat by other nations, and the tensions between them and the US becomes more apparent. The other nations begin speculations about the U.S's intent and paranoia runs rampant as any suggestion; from trying to make a super soldier, to making Hitler's "master race". This paranoia begins to make them panic.

    In April of the same year, an American destroyer is sunk, all hands but one were lost. Thomas Davis survived with grave injuries. Though he recovered, a spinal injury took his ability to walk.
    On April 2nd, John-Caleb Bradberton, the founder of Nuka Cola, entered the LEAP-X program. Unfortunately, it was only able to keep his head preserved for the next two centuries. April 28th, saw an accident occur at the Nuka Cola power plant which discharged a substantial amount of coolant into the
    near by river; the event was largely covered up, and a whistleblower was fired.

    Between July 10th, and October 23rd, the Sierra Army Depot was evacuated; The combined U.S & Canadian forces fighting China in the eleventh year of the ongoing conflict saw its need for trained men. Sierra Army Depot was so far from the front lines, it was no longer deemed efficient. While much of the equipment left there sat as was, automated sentries that were programmed to shoot on sight, and landmines positioned in strategic places, were installed for security measures.

    Sometime before August the 15th, General Constantine Chase, the hero of Anchorage, began testing a virtual reality simulation of the
    Reclamation of Anchorage at the VSS Facility in Washington D.C. By September 6th, technicians at VSS Facility began to notice General Chase making unrealistic, and sometimes radical alterations; they believe he's become obsessed with the simulation and is gradually going insane. They refrain from saying anything, in fear of losing military contracts.

    On October 10th, the military detachment at Mariposa, discover that the scientists have been using "military volunteers" for their experiments. These individuals were, in actuality, military prisoners who didn't have their brains scooped for
    brainbots. Colonel Robert Spindel has a mental breakdown; moral drops and they look to Roger Maxson for orders. Over the next couple of days until the 13th, Maxson interrogates the scientists heading the project, executing Chief scientist Robert Anderson during an interview. Two days later, on the 15th of October, Colonel Robert Spindel commits suicide; all the scientists are executed thereafter and by the 20th, Robert Maxson declares he is full desertion over the radio with no response.

    The next day, Roger Maxson then orders that all families of military personnel outside of Mariposa facility, be moved inside. The following day after that, on the 22nd, the Platinum Chip is processed; Mr house expects it to be delivered tomorrow--little does he know, that it will be a longer wait than he thought.

    On October 23rd, 2077 early in the morning, the Commander of the U.S Pacific Fleet, as well as the U.S Air Force report sightings of Chinese submarines at 00:01 Eastern Standard Time and aircraft approaching U.S airspace at 3:37 AM. Just hours before the world would fall silent from nuclear detonations both in the U.S and China as well as all around the world, at 9:13 AM the Integrated Operational Nuclear Detection System or
    IONDS reported four probable launches of ballistic missiles; U.S is forced to fo to DEFCON 2.

    Four minutes later, at 9:17 AM NORAD confirms
    IONDS and the U.S then goes to DEFCON 1; bomber pilots are scrambled. At exactly 9:26: AM the response scenario MX-CN91 is ordered by POTUS and full nuclear retaliation is in effect.

    The bombs and missiles dive and fly. No one knows anymore, who struck first or where. Other countries, upon seeing the detonations and hearing the reports, launch their own arsenals into the fray; air raid sirens blare but few heed the call, thinking it was nothing more than a false alarm. The Vaults seal shut, with, or without their intended occupants and what followed was two hours of nuclear annihilation; the near constant bombardment that riddled and scorched the Earth. The effects were far worse than anyone could have expected. The Earth's fault lines shifted violently, forcing mountains up from the soil while sinking other entire landmasses deep beneath the ocean.It is from here, from this mass grave that humanity began anew.
