The Stew (A writer's character)

Post » Fri May 27, 2011 10:47 am

Greetings, everyone, I haven't posted very much on here but I can at least say that I am quite fond of some of the well written fan-fiction around here. I've played Fallout since 2001 and ever since then, it has become my most beloved video game series no matter PC or console based. (I'm even quite fond of BOS for Xbox and PS2 oddly enough.)

During around 2003 I was introduced with text-based role-playing, and as a young teen, the first character that I decided to make was a Vault Dweller named Stewart who started out at the age of sixteen. He was a bright blond (Errr maybe we should just go with yellow) boy with an over optimistic mind-set that I noticed was something the series lacked. I was actually lucky enough to find a few others who had been familiar with the series, and so a wonderful journey began for me in the online world of role-playing... With time Stewart made many enemies, but even more friends, including the Brotherhood themselves; who I might add he refused to join due to their anti-social nature and refusal to help the less fortunate of the wasteland. In the end the young Vault dweller even had a climatic confrontation with The Master who he defeated after a long and most epic battle. When he returned to his Vault (Which was 77, oddly enough I picked that number long before that web comic was released.) and was denied further entry due to changes they believe occurred while on the journey to find his mother, a total of three years later. (Sound a little bit familiar ? Parental bonds much ?) Instead of being upset Stewart took in a big sigh and nodded saying "You're right Ma'am, I have changed, and so has the wasteland, but I wouldn't change it for the world..." and with his over optimistic attitude Stewart or... The Stew as he was later known for his countless selfless acts, stepped back out into the wasteland to become an immortal; as where ever morality laid crumbled and destroyed, he vowed to restore it.

Amusingly enough he later encountered the same statue-head from the random encounter in Fallout 2, sending him through many different periods of the Fallout timeline and using it as an advantage to help as many people as humanly possible.


Heh, I hope that you have enjoyed reading this little bit of nothing, The Stew was my first actual character and probably the reason that I have a book I plan to publish in the years to come. I know the storyline was silly and extremely immature, but me being 14 at the time he is still quite a success in my heart. It was that childish role-playing that led me to start writing when I turned sixteen myself, and now at 20 it certainly is something I enjoyed in my younger youth. I could give an immense amount of more detail if anyone would care to hear his entire bio, but for now I hope that you enjoyed reading.

Thank you...
