Raiders. Raiders are supposedly synonymous with evil, greediness and stupidity. Thats were people are wrong though. I'm a raider, but I'm not evil, stupid or greedy. I'm pushed to do it out of a need to survive. Survival of the fittest, and I'm certainly very fit.

My guys, we call ourselves the Civilized Raiders. Sure, killing and stealing may not seem very civilized but out here, its like air. Its everywhere, and you need it to live. Find me a person in the Wastelands who hasn't killed or stolen and I'll call you a lier. Anyway, we aren't like most raiders, we're better than them. We aren't sadists or druggies, and we do thing better. We take on the big targets. Like ambushing Outcasts. Hell, once we even raided Tenpenny Tower. We bring in the big bucks... or should I say caps? We raid all month and then we gather up our rewards and sell 'em to Talon Company for a big payout.

Well, thats how it used to go, till they raided us. I couldn't believe it when it happened. We had stumbled upon a ton of Pre-War tech that month, and we were about to receive our biggest payout yet. We could all feel it.

And then the Merc buying it from us looked at our stuff, and he froze. Not for long though. He nodded at us and their guys came out of the freakin' woodworks shooting at us.

I was the only one to survive. The last Civilized Raider.

That won't be for long though. I'm going after the Talon Company for two things. To get my stuff back, and for vengeance. Hell, I know nothin' good ever comes from revenge. I'm planning on nothing good coming from it. And that is exactly why I'm recruiting. Puttin' a new team together.

You've just been selected for that team. Meet me at Moriarty's. 2pm tomorrow.

===

Yes, I know there is a lot of RP's going on at the moment and people want to have less. I discussed it with Mad Max and we think that its okay, as long as this is a decent, original RP. If you want to complain, don't.

Max was right, this should be interesting. Don't like fallout 3 rp's but this doesn't look half bad.

Character Sheet

Name: Larry Zito
Age: 32
Appearance: 6'4 frame, medium build, longer brown hair.
Personality: Quiet, smart, loner
Brief History: Larry had been fighting for his right to survive in the wasteland for too long. He had worked his way east hoping to find a place to rest. He had dealt with raiders, never really wanting to but he did what he had to to make it that far.
Possessions: 12 Gauge shotgun, Vp70 handgun and an M16
Skills: what is this, the game? My guy can shoot and could patch you up. (I'll have to look up the game skills, sorry)

Accepted. With skills you can just put what your good at. For you it could be Small Guns and Medicine. It doesn't have to be from the game though, it could be something like hunting or whatever.

I don't know if I can join but I would like to. I'm not sure if anyone thinks I'm skilled but I know I'm dedicated.

Name: Ryan Lewis

Age: 23

Appearance: Shaved head, medium height and build.

Personality: Determined, has a little bit of a temper, not incredibly talkative.

Brief History:Ryan grew up in Andale. When he was young he thought he had a normal existence. He had his family and neighbors. There were rare visits from strangers and even then they didn't hang around long. On his 17th birthday his dad decided it was time to show him the family business. When Ryan found out that he and his family were eating people it made him sick. He was disgusted and went a little crazy. He murdered his parents and ran off into the wasteland. He wanted to become a normal person in society. Ryan tried living in Megaton and Rivet City but they didn't accept him when they found out he was from Andale. He refused to become a raider because they reminded him of his family. So when Ryan came arcoss the 'Civilised Raiders' he had found his happy medium.

Possessions: Assault Rifle and sledge hammer.

Skills: Small guns and melee.

Accepted definitely. Aussie your a great RP'er, why wouldn't you think your skilled?

Well I'm sorta new but thanks M'Heree that means a lot.

Yep, M'heree's a nice guy... I would join M'heree, but I don't have enough time on my hands, I got my xbox back AND I have family problems... Life's a [Censored] hey?

Thats fine Aussie, its the truth.

And thanks Francois, and I understand you have stuff to work out so thats fine. =)

Not sure what the general consensus on me would be, about being a "skilled" rper, as it were. I do TES stuff mostly, so I'm not in too many Fallout rps, but I always liked the idea of a raider rp. I'll make up a sheet tomorrow, once I get home from work, if that's okay.

Thats fine Ambrose. I think I remember RPing with you a while back, though I can't really remember... And don't worry so much about the skilled thing, I mainly mean "No horrible RPers here please!". lol

I can vouch for Ambrose, he is good.

I'm unsure if I should join. I mean, I like the whole idea...But something about it...You know

Schools out I can actively Rp now.

Name: Chaz Williams
Age: 24
Appearance: gray hair with a buzz cut. dark green eyes and dark skin. somewhat muscular. although he is scary in appearence his face is smooth
Personality: energetic and loud although he has good leadership skills
Brief History: Chaz grew up in tenpenny tower. He was akways loud and wild unlike the other kids there. The advlts were all afraid that he would turn in to a creep so they abandoned him out in the wastes. His father felt sorry for him and decided to give him money and food unlike his mother. He headed for megaton but instead came across a group of raiders. They didn't kill him but raised him. He grew up to be bloodthirsty and evil. One day the group abandoned him so he headed to megaton hearing about "civilized raiders". It wasn't his type but he would have to do.
Possessions: 44. caliber repeater. colt .45 pistol. hunting knife
Skills: Hunting, repair.

Name: David Quinn
Age: 29
Appearance: David isn't a very fit looking man. He's quite skinny and overall frail looking, almost malnourished. He's of an average height, standing at 5'11" with shoulder length, messy blonde hair and blue eyes. He has a gaunt appearance, giving him a somewhat haunted looking appearance most of the time.

Personality: David is quiet and calm, more often stoic than not. He very rarely gets angry or aggravated and is almost always able to keep a cool head under pressure. He's extremely intelligent, good with puzzles and riddles, and loves challenges. He's also very good at anolyzing situations and coming up with solutions, though they may not always be good for anyone except him.

Brief History: David was born and raised in Canterbury Commons, and spent a lot of time learning from the traveling traders and mercenaries. After a while, he decided to go out in the wastes to try and make his fortune, perhaps even become a trader himself. That ended when his newly starting caravan ran into Talon Company. He barely escaped with his life, but he lost all his money and wares. With nothing left, he ended up in Megaton, with an ever building tab with Moriarty.

Possessions: A set of leather armor, a http://users.telenet.be/leo.gijselings/wapen/jericho_941f.jpg, and a small device he secured off of Crazy Wolfgang. He suspects that it might be a portable computer, as it fits the specs and has a Vault Tec logo on it, but despite his tinkering, he's never been able to make it work, and with his recent downturn in fortune, it probably never will.

Skills: Science, Repair

Okay, looks like Rohugh unlocked it after my PM. You are all accepted, and the RP will probably start sometime tomorrow, hopefully. Until then, anyone else interested in signing up?

So are you starting the Rp during the day or arvo?

Depends if I'm up for school tomorrow. My tonsillitis is better, but not fully gone, so we'll have to wait and see =)

Ok cool was just wondering because I didn't want to come home and the Rp is already half way in lol. Its cool I get home at around lunch time. Ah the perks of being a senior.

Name: Aaron Michaels
Age: 35
Appearance: Short, bald, broken nose.
Personality: Intimidating, but is usually gentle.
Brief History: He never speaks of it.
Possessions: Baseball Bat, Laser Pistol
Skills: Speech, Melee Weapons

Grunt Buster, even if your character never speaks of his history, it would be nice for us, the players (not the characters) to know it. And maybe a bit more thorough for the appearance please? Like his hair, eyes, muscly or not? Other than that its all good. RP starts up sometime today in this thread.

This looks like fun, I'll post a character sheet later tonight.

Character Sheet

Name: Jonathan Stuart
Age: 27
Appearance: Jonathan is quite fit and tall, yes, he is VERY tall. He has a spiky mohawk and a light goatee. His hair is as black as night yet his eyes are as blue as day.
Personality: Good natured, though he has a bad side to him. Usually he is all smiles, but under that is a raider greed, anger. A want for suffering. A want for revenge. But this side of him only comes out when he is angry, or in a bad mood. Other than that yeah, he's fine...
Brief History: Jonathan was raised by raiders in the terror of the Wastelands. He was always the mischievous one of the children travelling with him. But one day the raider party met up with slavers, and traded Jonathan and a few others for a few bullets. Jonathan was then taken to Megaton and forced to work as a cleaner for Moriarty, he escaped and managed to convince the raiders in the Springvale school to let him join up with them. After that he was a raider. Obviously. Though he never liked what he done. He didn't enjoy killing, only on his bad days he did. He escaped from the Raiders a few years later and came back to Megaton.
Possessions: Chinese assault rifle. The clothes that Jericho wears. (what are they called?!)
Skills: Small guns, lockpicking.

Do you want a nationality, or are we the raider race?

Umm guys, what happened to this?

So you know... I also vouch for Ambrose, he's a great RP'er, worked with him a while back and he was very inspirational I must admit! Oh and I'll tell you what happened to it... It's sleeping!

RP thread is up. Go there, get set.
