» Sat May 28, 2011 10:46 am Overview
You wake up. Your head feels like an overripe watermelon, and you sit up in the pod as it opens. The door to the pod slides downward. You rub your head as your blurry eyes take in your surroundings. The flickering lights around the room do nothing to calm the raging flame inside your head, and right before they burn out, you see other pods around the room sliding open, just like yours. You can’t see the people in the other pods, but that’s not your priority right now. Right now, there’s only one thing on your mind. One thing to compete with the excruciating pain in your head.
Who am I, and how the hell did I get here?
With this RP, I am hoping to create a sense of fellowship as a small group of wanderers try to figure out who they are. A small band of explorers from the well-hidden Vault 66 try to realize their identity as they explore the ruins of Toronto, Canada.
As soon as the people in Vault 66 emerge from their pods, they will examine their Pip-Boy 2000s to get their personal information. However, the pods they were in somehow altered their Pip-Boys, so the closest thing they will get to their name is a callsign that the robotic maintenance officers of Vault 66 (who are now gone) assigned them. A message on their Pip-Boy will tell them where to find their respective lockers, which house all of their items.

Explanation (READ!!!)
Spoiler
Name: Has to be a callsign-ish name.
Race: Pretty-self explanatory. Let’s only use the ones from Fallout 3, though (Caucasian, Afro-American, Hispanic, Asian).
Gender: Again, pretty self-explanatory.
Age: This will be found on their Pip-Boy, so it has to be exact to the year.
Physical Description: Their build and appearance.
Combat Style: Basically, their role in combat, such as the bigass tank that takes a lot of hurt, or the medic who supplies stimpaks.
Skills: I’d say you can have 6-7 skills. Don’t feel restricted to skills from the game (but nothing like ‘Killing People’ or ‘Being a Badass’).
Weapons: All I can say, at this point, is to try not to be overpowered at the beginning. I’d say that maybe a laser pistol, a hunting rifle, a shotgun, or an assault rifle are the most powerful you can have. However, you can put weapons here that you hope to scavenge later (there will be a great opportunity for that early in the RP). Still, though, nothing too powerful. Weapons that are absolutely NOT allowed are: Fat Man, MIRV, Alien Blaster, and the like.
Clothes/Armor: Everyone starts out in a vault, so everyone is wearing a Vault 66 jumpsuit. You can get power armor once we get to the scavenging part, which will be basically right after we leave the Vault and enter the wastes of the city. However, the only power armor you can get is T-45D, the most basic type.
Other Items: Stimpaks, chems, grenades, etc.
Memento: This is one thing that really makes your character who they are, even though they don't know it yet. A memento is just this one, small thing that someone took into Vault 66 with them, under the impression that it would help them remember who they were once they woke from their mysterious slumber. However, the mementos do not help with this, and end up just raising more questions. Either way, you still have to hold on to it, from the beginning to the end.
General Info: What the person is like, how they function, etc.

Memento: A black-and-white picture of a man about Sand's age, standing on the edge of a lake. He has a rifle in his hand, and is lifting it up to aim at a distant bird.
General Info: Sand, as he is supposedly called, is charismatic and clever. Even though, like the rest of the Vault 66 inhabitants, he doesn’t remember anything of his past, he can still tell stories better than the jerky vendor in Junktown. He can cheer up his normally grim friends pretty easily. Sand is a great hunter and tracker, and can hit a bull’s eye from several hundred yards away. He has no problem sneaking around and picking locks when need be, though he prefers to just lay on a cliff and shoot things.
