Fall an rise...

First off this has spoilers for the fallout 3 mainquest line and sidelines. Mainly just want to see short stories on how peoples character went through the game....

My character Cyrus. Loved his farther and felt he had the gift to help people and do good while searching for his farther. He is a mix of sneak, sm. guns, explosives and medicine. With perks like the +5 lockpick + Sneak one. After witness'ing the death of the sheriff at the hands of an insane man. He took up that duty dawning the cloths and disarming the bomb in megaton.Securing his home and a place in the outside world. Eventing finding his farther after some troublesome Virtual reality events there time together was cut short by the enclave. Felt cheated and lost once again. Heading back to megaton with a Paladin of steel friend. I found Vault 101 was in need of my help. I left my Paladin of steel friend in megatons good hands as this was personal to me.

Once inside i found Amata needed my help. I tried and tried to persuade the new Overseer but he wouldn't have it and he open fired on me. In defense i blew his brains against the wall. Amata was greatful and not so at the same time. She accepted the roll of new overseer for the good of the Vault. But...i was banished. It hurt and my character then pointed his gun to the person asleep next to myself n Amata while we were conversing. He then open fired killing that person, then Pointing the gun straight at amata's shocked face i... i pulled the trigger again. Then i killed the next person and the next. Having no respect for each person shooting them in the face, leaving there body's defiled and mocked even in death. I then killed all the Original Overseers supporters. It was pro-claimed as the fall of vault 101 by its own golden child.

Few days later hiking in the hills the paladin and i got into words and a scuffle came about. Needless to say some rounds fired some blood splattered and i removed the dog tags of the paladin and left the body there. Now i spend my days hunting the enclave. Killing them ruthlessly. On the run from the a group of mercenaries. Both hot on my trail, and gunfights going at all times of the day and night. I am lighting the wastelands on fire with my hatred using blood and gunpowder as its fuel. Perhaps scar'd from the virtual reality events and tainted.

I sought a redemption...While traversing the wasteland. Somewhat hoping at an given moment a raider would fire a round and kill me releasing this anguish i heard gunfire. I ran into a nearby scrapyard. 3 raiders were tormenting this dog, hurting him after recently murdering his owner an unknown trader to me. I popped up from behind a car and in 3 rounds i had silenced there evil. I released the empty round from my rifle slid the new one in an aimed at this innocent dog. It sat looking at the end of my gun, then it looked down to the ground. It knew what was coming. But i couldn't fire. It was impossible. I stood there with my gun pointed at this dogs head and i couldnt believe the evil in me. I shook. I dropped my rifle. I couldn't breath. Eventually i fell to my knees, i was cold and shaking still. Then backwards i had landed on my back. The piercing day light had grown darker. I awakened. I felt a rough but wet appendage on my face and a bad smell. The dog remained. He was licking my face. When i sat up i realized i had blacked out. I looked at the dog and scratched his head. I was reborn...i was alive was again. I took the dog into the hills with me towards me as i roamed for this secret entrance to a vault and a device called the G.E.C.K.

After days of searching dealing with misinformation after misinformation i stumbled upon a decent settlement. I was met harshly but accepted few moments later. Feeling a chill in the air i worried for myself and my dog. Upon conversation with few of the people i found it was called Paradise hills Slavery camps. Such a horrible thing. I saw children, young advlts and even elders locked up. I prompted there apparent leader. It did no good. I told dog to wait behind a building. I used some cunning and managed to kill a large amount of them. During my gunfire with the guards over the slaves i badly wounded there leader. I gave him the choice, his pride for there lives, or his life for theres. He pulled a pistol so very quickly but Dog had disobeyed me and was on the back of him. Dog killed him and rescued me. From a few children slaves i found out they had a small underground camp with more dogs and they new of a vault...it was far fetch'd it would be the one i wanted.

I traveled with them and with a bit of luck it turned out to be the vault i was looking for. Vault 87. They had a family of dogs to of all names like rex, bandit etc. Dog got along with them and they played. As i convinced one to show me the entrance i told Dog he was staying here. These children and there pets were now his family. He whimpered and i was assured he understand. In the vault i learned horrible experiments, met the unlikeless companion and retrevied the G.E.C.K. from a rusted mutant infected hellhole...But i didnt leave on my own 2 feet. I was hit with a grenade stunning me. I saw powerarmor then black.

I awoke with a man pointing a gun at me. stuck in some sort of force field. He was demanding a code. He was called away and my force field deactivated. i heard a voice telling me everything was alright and were i could get my belongings and directions to an office. During my walk a coup or an attempt at a coup was staged. Large robots came out fighting humans. All ignoring me. I reached my destination. I met with the president of the enclave and supposedly the united states. It was a computer. I was dumbfounded. It was unaware, pure evil. It wanted me to use my farthers work and its own concoction, the same i found in vault 87, to poison the water. Mid conversation while we were arguing about morality it rebooted. It held with it a different tone, as if a person. It asked me to leave with or without the FEV virus while he was about to start a self destruct. I narrowly escaped,without the FEV virus, seeing dozens of Enclave flying machines leaving, some unlucky and getting caught in the mountains explosion. I was knocked down. Hurt badly by debris. Hours, days could of passed, i felt the heat of the sun and pierce of the dirt caught in his winds in the night. I heard a loud noise. eventually opening my eyes i saw a flying machine land in the distance. Enclave come to finish me off. I heard barking over an over. I rolled my head over and there was Dog, he had sat with me and i hadnt even noticed he found me. I looked back at the machine. Power armor got out.

Brotherhood of steel. Sarah Lyons was there. She ran over and grabbed my arms another my feet. Dog jumped up and dog barking, instilling the sense of urgency. Few days later i awoke. Sarah was there by my side. She explained to me they had one what they call vertibird but been saving it for an evac. But she convinced them to come to strike at the enclave and instead they found me. I informed the brotherhood of the fractured enclave that was now in possession of the G.E.C.K. They formed the Lyons pride... and a questionable super machine. a Warbot. I said my goodbyes to dog for the final time leaving him with the leaders of the brotherhood of steel. At the gate i met the Sarah lyon. She was reserved on me joining but knew all i had been through that was ready to stand aside her and her brothers. We fought through the city block by block. Creating more rubble, destorying the few buildings left standing. The Warbot our tank punching holes through any dug out enclave forces. We had made it to the Project purity.

Myself and Sarah entered. We fought against the finest of enclave, throwing themselves for there cause against us. But ours was just and we came out true. I entered the Rotunda, Project Purity's chamber. The same man that was screaming at me for a code with a gun to my head was there again. Pistol already cocked. He told me it was over and he'd won. Sarah had entered the opposing door. Delivering a signal round from her side arm. He was amazed, bewildered. Then he was no more. I told her thank you. Seconds later while securing the room, we both heard Doctor li on my Pip-boy. She was at the GNR building and they were pumping there signal strength right through the roof, so much my pip-boy mistook it as the same high level frequency from the Vault and played it. She was pleading a message to the armed forces at Project purity. Apparently the chamber was building up dangerous pressure levels. So much it could explode and reseed all the radiation. She said it was still flooded with radiation so we must act quickly and it was one way trip.

I knew it was death. So did Sarah. She thought it was victory, but now she lost all joy. She only had "so should we draw straws ?" to say. Words were chilling. Leaving it to short straw and long one to decide. Sarah was a genuine soul. She like her farther and like my own radiated and glowed in heroic deeds and compassion. The good of man kind. She saw a look on my face and then she said "I'll go, whats the code ?".

"2-1-6". I stepped into the airlock with her. SHe asked who would close the door and it doesn't make sense that we both die. I tell her i have made the choice for us both and she is to step out. I follow the path of my farther. She said i didn't have to do it. I smiled i leaned in and kissed her and said "for luck", knowing it didnt matter. She actually had a tears run down her face. I think she forgot about being a soldier, bout the just cause. She had just become a friend and was rought with sadness. She hit the button. I could feel the heat the internal burn of the radiation as the inner airlock door opened.

It bombarded my body. I stepped to the console. 2-1-6...I am alpha and omega. I hit enter. the water flowed at an incredible speed through the machine. It worked. I smiled my farthers dreams live on through me. the farther becomes the son, the son becomes the farther. My body was weakening. I felt on fire. I was blinded by a large glow from the chamber surrounding my body. I fell to my knees. I looked behind me. Paladin Sarah lyons was crying. She hand open palmed against the glass. Taste of blood in my mouth and i felt my life fade away. I fell down on my chest. Last thing i saw was Sarah. She was hope. She was what makes my passing easier, knowing with her life will go on...for the better. I carry this imagine into infinity and i am at peace. I am alpha and omega.

The end...of Cyrus's story anyway


Its kinda lame. I started out fast but added alot more as i got closer to the finish. I did change some of the elements from the game and even knicked some lines from otherthings. but i hope you's enjoy'd and feel like writing your own small stories bout the fun you've had so far etc etc

Anyway whats yours ?

My character's story's not yet finished, but so far...

Her name was Danielle, the beautiful daughter to James and Catherine. She was told she was born in the Vault, and never once questioned it, nor failed to believe it. The loss of her mother was always a sad topic for her, despite not knowing her to any great degree, but if anything the woman's death forged an even stronger bond between father and daughter. She idolised him, and her demeanour and actions were always tempered by a gentle edge that came from mirroring her father's treatment of others, and her mother's alleged outlook on life.

She was always popular with the more open-minded vault dwellers, if not assertive, and whilst she did not share her father's natural medical skills she nevertheless possessed an obvious affinity with machines, seeming to know instantly how they worked, what was wrong with them when they were faulty, and how to make them better. Her tenth birthday gift, a BB Gun, also exposed Danielle's natural hand with a firearm, maybe due to her steady hands or her unwavering patience
[Tag Skills: Small Guns, Repair, Speech].

When her father left the vault, Danielle was distraught, unable to swallow the knowledge that she would be without her one constant for the rest of her life. When Amada suggested that she leave and take off after him, the advice was taken eagerly and acted upon. Although she fought hard to avoid conflict, Danielle was never the most subtle of girls, and her path to the Overseer's office was blocked by members of the security staff. Although she wished it otherwise, she was forced to claim more than one life in order to escape.

The world outside was a refreshing blow to Danielle, who saw in its wastes a kind of twisted beauty that could only come to one who had never experienced anything beyond dull grey walls. Her wanderings led her first to Springvale, a small ruined town faring north-east of her former home. She stumbled across a woman there who at first thought her an agent of a man called Moriarty, but was quickly swayed by the sincerety of Danielle when she claimed not to know who she was talking about. Despite her circumstances and her desire to move on and find her father, Danielle's natural desire to help others came to the fore and she was moved to try and help the woman out of her plight, mainly by telling Moriarty that the woman was gone. Besides, with the closest true settlement being Megaton it seemed like a good place to start her search.

It was short work getting to Megaton, though Danielle was attacked by vicious dogs as she went; she also happened across a man dressed in dull crimson red power armour, who seemed to react to her with instant disdain. Within the walls of Megaton, Danielle was greeted by the town's self-appointed Sheriff, Lucas Simms, who -- unlike the power armoured man -- saw in her a goodness that improved his immediate disposition towards her
[Good Karma]. Through their exchange Danielle learnt of Lucas's fear of the atom bomb that lay within the town's centre, and of the knowledge that it could explode without much provocation. Although Danielle didn't possess a vast knowledge of explosives -- atom bombs especially -- she had read enough in her youth to understand how to disarm the bomb, which is what she did, despite the preaching of the Priests of Atom.

Through Lucas Simms, Danielle learnt that her father had indeed visited Megaton, and come to speak with the very man that she had come to speak with herself: Moriarty. Her eagerness overcoming her, she made straight for the bar, where she befriended both Lucy Watts and the horrific-looking Gob who, despite appearances, Danielle found endearing. She had never considered the prospect that the world could still allow slavery, especially after learning of the wars that were fought so long ago in order to abolish the practice. Although Danielle kept her opinions in check throughout her talk with Moriarty (she didn't want to risk being denied the location of her father), she made a personal promise to Gob that she would travel to Underworld when she could and speak with his associates there, hoping -- maybe foolishly -- that she might lessen his misery in doing so.

The town and its sheriff seemed pleased with Danielle's work and conduct within the town; someone else was not. A short while into her journey east Danielle was set upon by armed mercenaries, who funnelled her into a secluded river section pass where she was forced to fight with uncharacteristic intensity
[All Critical VATS deaths]. In an effort to gain more food and possibly some stimpacks to recover from her ordeal, she looted their bodies, only to come across a contract asking a group called the Talon Company to find her, and execute her. Although shocked and unnerved, Danielle pressed on, moving more swiftly north in an effort to cover the last leg of ground before nightfall.
