i like the idea of this city

Come on guys, get your character/faction sheets in. Blackhand already has mine

Didn't he say to post our cs in the OOC thread he plans to make?

Well yeah, but I really don't think he'd be against the idea of people being keen and submitting sheets early mate.

I'll submit soon. Gotta think something up and finish some work.




Checkmate:cool:

Cool. Can't wait to see the factions that The New Unity will be up against

Hey, are our characters stripped of weapons upon entering the prison? Or are they given any? Or does it depend on whether and who they are connected to?

I would guess that they'd have a weapon of some sort. If not, I'm sure the super mutants controlling the weapons factory could work something out with your character. Just my guess though.

Good stuff, thanks. I have an idea or two, but that'll give my character something to do, cheers.

Yeah, go ahead and post some up. You guys can edit them once I post the backround to suit any needs.

That being said, I have the map done. I'll go ahead and post the backround in a few hours, than we can get things organized and start in a day or two.

EDIT: To answer your question Long, all weapons are taken from the prisoners upon entering... and thrown into a giant pile near where they enter. They have to fight for what is theirs, and what appeals to them.

Maybe a few broken down cars where you can, for example, break the windows and use the glass as a knife, or pull off a loose piece of rectangular shaped metal and strike back at your target like a machete.

That sounds like what the Legion would do.

That sounds like what I will do

This is what I have so far. I'll edit in my faction history soon.

Faction Sheet.


Name: The New Unity.

Governmental Type: The New Unity is an autocracy ran solely by Solomon.

Race(s): Mariposa super mutants, Nightkin.

Geography: The New Unity is based in the warehouse and factory district in the north west of Fortune city.

Unique Tech: As super mutants the Unity have access to a vast amount of oversized close combat weapons such as bumper swords as well as a lot of heavy weapons such as mini guns. The only truly “unique” weapon however is Solomon's ballistic fist.

Faction Size: 30 Mariposa super mutants.
15 Nightkin
40 “Dum-dums”

History:

Diplomatic relations: While the members of The New Unity are hostile towards humans they will trade weapons, equipment and foodstuffs with them.
They are neutral towards ghouls and will actively try to recruit any mutants sent to the city by the NCR.


Character Sheets.


Name: Solomon.

Age: Unsure, but he has been a mutant for 125 years, so would guess he's in his 160s.

Gender: Male.

Race: Mariposa super mutant.

Faction: The New Unity.

Rank: Leader.

Physical Description: Being huge and green, Solomon's physical appearance is fairly typical of his fellow mutants. His left eye was replaced with a bionic, as was his left ear. He has dark brown eyes and is completely bald.

Weapons: As the leader of The New Unity, Solomon would say that his most dangerous weapon is his mind. However he is also equipped with a custom made, oversized ballistic fist.

Armour/Clothing: Solomon's armour mostly consists of lightweight plastic straps, holding together metal panels encased in leather.

Personality: Solomon is fairly calm and even tempered, but holds a deep hatred for humanity. He is very intelligent and is a natural leader. He places great value on loyalty from his followers and can be incredibly vindictive to anyone he feels may betray him.

History: Solomon worked directly for Lieutenant Lou during his days serving in the Master's army and was an exceptionally skilled soldier and battlefield leader. When the Master's army was defeated Solomon drifted aimlessly for years. For a while he started to believe that the Master was wrong, that his plan to eradicate humanity was a mistake. But the decades of bigotry and intolerance, of aggression and constant attack eventually convinced him otherwise. He began to seek out old medical facilities, laboratories, anywhere he might be able to find some way to cure the super mutants of their sterility and then continue the Master's work.

Despite his capture by the NCR, Solomon hasn't been deterred in his mission. He sees his incarceration as an opportunity to gather like minded individuals and intends to gather an army within the walls of Fortune city and eventually use the island as a base from which to strike at his captors.


Name: Hoskins

Age: 132

Gender: Male.

Race: Nightkin

Faction: The New Unity.

Rank: Spymaster.

Physical Description: Hoskins is quite tall and thin by super mutant standards, though he is still a hulking brute. His skin is an ashy grey colour and his arms are covered with thick scars. He has bright green eyes.

Weapons: Suppressed 12.7mm SMG. Bumper sword named Charlene.

Armour/Clothing: Hoskins wears a huge, black hooded robe that almost completely covers his entire body, leaving only his arms bare. Beneath his hood he wears a crudely knitted full face balaclava and a large pair of yellow novelty sunglasses.

Personality: Hoskins is a slightly odd character, even by nightkin standards. Excessive stealth boy use has caused Hoskins to be afraid of being seen at all. Even when not invisible he trys to remain hidden and always keeps his face covered. He speaks in a slow, quiet, monotone voice that is muffled further by his roughly made mask. He is fiercely loyal to Solomon and will happily kill to defend his Master. The only thing Hoskins hates more than humans is bighorners. They freak him out and he will attack them if he sees any.

History: Hoskins was captured by a bighorner rancher after he was caught attacking the heard. He tried to flee, but got caught in a bear trap. The rancher wanted to execute him on the spot, but was convinced by a bounty hunter to instead cash in by selling the captive mutant to the NCR. He was attacked by a mob of humans within hours of being delivered to Fortune city, but Solomon personally rescued him from the fray, leading a dozen super mutants and suppressing the mob before carrying the unconscious nightkin back to the warehouse district. When Solomon found a stealth boy and gave it to Hoskins, he exposed a plot by the other nightkin to overthrow Solomon and replace him with one of their number. Solomon's revenge was swift and bloody. The plotters were dragged to the place where Hoskins was first attacked, where Solomon ordered their feet be cut off. They were then abandoned and left to the mob.

After this Hoskins was given the job of spymaster and ordered to build a network of nightkin spys that could be trusted to gather information for the New Unity.

Name: Mad Hamish.

Age: Nearly 200.

Gender: Male.

Race: Mariposa super mutant.

Faction: The New Unity.

Rank: Head engineer.

Physical Description: Hamish is immensely fat for a super mutant, with rolls of flesh bulging out between the plates of his armour. He has large dark eyes and a short ginger mohawk. While his skin is the typical olive green of a Mariposa mutant, his cheeks have a ruddy red sheen to them. His breath is slow and wheezy due to his immense bulk. He speaks with a thick Scottish accent.

Weapons: The Brick Gun. A rock-it launcher loaded with nothing but smashed bricks and masonry.

Armour/Clothing: Hamish has made himself a crude suit of metal armour from old pipes, road signs and pieces of machinery. Anything he can rivet together and then strap to his immense frame.

Personality: Hamish is a loud and aggressive mutant with a tendency for violent mood swings. Usually these are directed against the machine or piece of equipment he's working on, but the other workers in the factory learn quickly to avoid him when he begins shouting. He also enjoys drinking heavily.

History: The experiment inside Hamish's vault involved the reinforcement of racial stereotypes, so as a human of Scottish descent he was raised almost from birth to drink and fight with his fellow vault dwellers. Hamish loved this and had already lived a long and happy life of battle before the Master's army found his vault.

After the dipping process was completed and Hamish had been transformed, he found that his mutation had seemingly awakened an affinity for machinery in his mind. Unlike regular mutants, who could only fashion crude weapons such as bumper swords and rebar clubs, he was able to construct far more advanced ranged weapons from spare parts. He was put to work constructing and repairing mini guns, missile launchers and incinerators.

After the fall of the Master's army Hamish fell in with a group of other mutants and roamed the wasteland with them for decades. Eventually the group caught the attention of the NCR, most fled or were slaughtered in the battle that ensued, but due to his immense size Hamish was unable to flee and was captured and shipped to Fortune city.

Would anyone want to be a legionary with me?

I'm gonna be a dacunis( can't spell it lol).

IMO, a centurion is a little too much to have hold up there, so it's be best to just have deccanuses, recruits, primes, Nd veterans.

Question about BOS prisoners, will there be more then 5? Or less? (I'm saying 5 because the BOS doesn't give up easy. Besides, NCR would most likely kill them just to prevent futher problems.)

Would you want the five of them to all be together as a unit, or scattered throughout the city?

No, since most people don't like the BOS I'm figuring they wouldn't stay together. Most BOS except for recruits and scribes can handel themselfs.

Well it's up to Blackhand of course, but I'd say that there couuld be more than five scattered around the city.

I so wish there were women in the Legion I would/ going to suggest a woman disguised as a man, but doubt that would work, as her masculinity would be dwarfed by the Legionaires.

Blackhand, what about a woman working for Benny?

I'd say that would be ok Cobra.

I should let you guys know that I will be the co-GM in the RP. I haven't just been randomly interfering in the thread

I imagine that within the time the prison opened and when the RP starts, around 12 to 15 Brotherhood of Steel could of been captured. Chances are at least three to five of them would be killed.


There is actually a faction that will be perfect for you I think.


I am almost done making the back round. I would have finished it a couple hours ago, but had to go to the orthodontist to fix a loose brace.

I'll and see what you post, then I'll go from there.

Tell me what you think


Name: Marcus Severus
Gender: Male
Age: 32
Rank: Experienced Decanus
Race: African-American and Caucasian; Mixed
Faction: Caesar's Legion
Physical Description: Tall and hardy. Very fit. Muscular, lean arms. About 185-190lbs.
http://i.imgur.com/5NuRG.jpg

Weapons: A sharp machete smelted with animal ivory and solid metal, and given a black finish. Slipped in through guards and is hidden inside his bunk.

Personality: Wise and older than his recruits, Severus serves the Legion intelligently and brutally. He remains calm in times of sorrow, and is charismatic. His voice sounds like Dead Sea from FO:NV

Bio: Marcus Severus was born under Legion rule from a slave girl in the Grand Canyon region. As a boy, he learned valuable survival skills, and hunted fearsome beasts. He conquered a huge beast with trunks and horns, and used the tusks to create his weapon when undergoing blacksmith training.

He was promoted to Veteran Legionary after the Battle of Hooverdam for slaying fifteen troopers singlehandedly. He earned his Decanus rank after using his smarts and wisdom to best deal with Camp Searchlight. After Caesar heard of his actions and the results, he was pleased and put Marcus in charge of his own unit. The unit consisted on many recruits, hoping to be as skillful as Marcus is.

After setting up camp one Nevada Night, NCR rangers caught them off guard and killed many of his soldiers. He ordered his men to stand down and surrender, stating they would be much more use alive than dead by their own hands, and would continue to sabatoge the NCR, no matter where they took him. He hid his blade in his boot, and was taken to Fortune City prison. After serving many months, he has earned respect of many, of not all legion inmates, and is looked up to as a father. Even some NCR officers and higher ends are impressed by him.

He wears a Decanus Helmet and Veteran Legion armor.


He is almost exclusively seen with his mask on.

Looks very good Mom. Go ahead and post it in the OOC thread and I'll place it on up.

I'll go ahead and say that in this universe, the NCR were brutally defeated at the Battle of Hoover Dam by The Legion. The Legion would than get it's ass kicked by Benny's empire about an hour later.
