Yikes. It is creepier.

Edit: But it's pretty damn cool. I need to get that mod.

Edit 2: Except the new masks are way the hell too creepy.

The creepy masks are the point. They're based off the Phantom of the Opera. I think it's fitting for a group of high-class cannibals.

EDIT:
Does that come with an all you can eat buffet? I have heard there steaks are to die for...

Yes it does.

They are also packing some http://newvegas.nexusmods.com/mods/40608 (including the Lincolns Repeater. Because it's a fancy gold plated rifle)

EDIT: If you don't like the masks, what about these http://newvegas.nexusmods.com/mods/39336 Oh yeah. My White Gloves are gonna be creepy alright.

I'm going to start writing the convention, so I'm closing the poll (can't switch around the endings while I'm writing the convention.) the thread result is as follows:

In third place, with four votes, we have:
Spoiler
Caesar's Legion

This was a close call. The first place and second place winners were only one vote apart.

In first place, with fourteen votes, we have... :whisper: Drum-roll please:

Spoiler
Robert Edwin House.

For the people who have never done conventions before, I'll give you a format. Let's pretend that I'm a representative of Canterbury Commons in a DC Convention.



Uncle Roe- Ambassador of Canterbury Commons

*Roe enters the dirty room. He doesn't expect anything particularly nice. This is the Capital Wasteland. He finds an empty chair and takes a seat at the long table. He looks over to the end of the table and notices Lucas Simms*

Ambassador Simms, Canterbury Commons is normally too far out into the wasteland to properly receive our deserved Aqua Pura from the Brotherhood of Steel. I would like to arrange that Megaton either sends a caravan of its own for us, or sends Aqua Pura with any of the four large caravan vendors. We are a caravan hub, so we're visited by them all the time. In return, since we are a caravan hub, I can send supplies for your various stores; primarily weapons.

How does that sound?



(That's a relatively small opening character post, but I'm only giving an example)

Question: Will the Van Graffs be comprised of the Mojave group (Jean-Baptiste and Gloria) or the full collective, including the New Reno group?

That's kind of the idea, except you want to trade and sell stuff to the other factions. Whatever helps your faction out the most is what you want to do.

Yup.

You create a dialogue for your own character, and wait for the other ambassadors to respond, et cetera. I'll find links to my old conventions and put them on here.

No. Gloria Van Graff pissed off her mother, and I don't see any unification between the two Van Graff groups. It's going to be the Mojave Group.

That's not what he meant, Gingy. In the East Coast convention, we would write our own monologues after the end of the meeting, describing what happened when they left and how everything they had did measured up with their actual associates. It actually gave a narrative drive to the convention, and was completely optional.

Our entrances were also much more.. in-depth, to say the least. :P

If you want to make your own entrance as-to what happened to your faction after Hoover Dam, be my guest.

Most of the endings are the maximum good, though. (For example, the Courier installed Primm Slimm as sheriff of Primm, the Courier sent Bright's group into space, the NCR blackmailed the Van Graffs and Crimson Caravan, et cetera)

We're doing an alternate ending where the Brotherhood of Steel are left alone by Mr. House and they continue to inhabit Hidden Valley. That way, Andronicus actually has something to go on when he participates.

How small time are the Salvatores now? I mean with the Van Graffs in Reno, their EW superiority is now rivaled, and they were never as big as the rest of the families, just the bar and some stores under their "protection".

So wait, since we have factions like the Salvatores and Wrights from back west, should I be representing the entirety of the West Coast BoS or just the Mojave Chapter?

Or should that be its own separate faction?

West Coast BoS isn't going to show up at this convention because their enemies are showing up here.

You're the Mojave chapter, unless you really want the West Coast BoS to show up.

They're moderate. They need power, and because the NCR is collapsing around them, this is one of their last options.

BTW: The Convention should be done late this evening, but I'm not going to hold it out into the night, so it should go up tomorrow morning.

I'll post it in the General Discussion to give it an appearance, although it will eventually be moved to Fallout Artwork and Fan Fiction by a moderator.
