Story

So basically, this RP will take place in the NCR; starting in 2242, when the NCR and Western Brotherhood of Steel went to war with one another (taken from Van Buren). The game would revolve around a squad of NCR Rangers (you), who are tasked with defending a small out of the way http://lanepl.org/CMR_22/IMG0049.jpg (it will be reinforced with metal sheeting and other things for extra protection), which seemingly has no tactical value or meaning to be there besides to supply NCR Rangers who go out and raid Slaver and Raider camps. But in the end, the squad does so and heads to the NCR Outpost which is literally out in the middle of the wasteland, with nothing around for miles. It seems to the squad, that they were sent here by their superiors to just keep their heads down and keep out of the war that is taking place all around the NCR, including Shady Sands, Hub, and other major places in the NCR that are no where near the NCR Ranger Outpost they are at.

After a week of nothing to do but shoot Mole Rats and other wasteland creatures, suddenly things take a complete 180, and the NCR Ranger base that the squad is at; becomes a heated battlefield. The NCR Rangers and the squad stationed there, are suddenly surrounded by Brotherhood of Steel Knights, Paladins, and others who have taken arms against the NCR. The Rp will take place not only at the Outpost, but other places as well.

My Character Sheet

Name: John Greer (goes by Greer)
Age: 26
Race: Human/Caucasian
Gender: Male

Hair Color: Dark Brown
Eye Color: Brown
Skin Color: Tanned

Extra Junk: Rifle Round Bandoleer, Rifle cleaning kit, Revolver cleaning kit, 5x Stim-pack, 5x Med-X, NCR Ranger Badge

Personality: John or Greer, as he prefers to be called. Is a man of action, and is not afraid to get his hands dirty if the need arises, and usually gets the job done. He watches out for those he fights with, and hopes they do the same for him. When fighting, Greer can at times be brash and get himself into stupid situations that he would other wise have thought about, rather than just rushing in. He can take orders, and follow them well enough to get what needs to be done, done. Though at times, Greer has been known not to follow the orders of his superior, which has either made him very dumb or very brave in the eyes of his superiors.

Biography: Before joining the NCR Rangers, Greer was a Brahmin herder in the Southern United States. After finding the life of a Brahmin herder to boring, and not exciting enough. Greer took on the job of a Mercenary. At first, it was hard; and Greer struggled with the life of a Mercenary. But after a year, he gradually got a hold of the business, and began to love it. For years, Greer travelled the wasteland taking odd jobs here and there; and getting paid good money for doing them. At first, Greer thought that he would do nothing but travel the wasteland, and do jobs. The pay was good, and the jobs he took on, brought him to all sorts of interesting places.
After being a Mercenary for about four years, Greer was visiting the town of Shady Sands. At the time, he was low on funds and the local bar was his home. But one day, while completely and utterly drunk. Greer did one of the stupidest things he'd ever done. He picked a fight with an NCR Ranger, who was highly trained in hand to hand combat. Sad to say, but Greer ended up in the local jailhouse, and for several weeks was beaten by NCR Rangers secretly, who were basically just street thugs.
After weeks of beatings, Greer made the NCR Rangers double think what they were doing. Whenever they were beating on him, he laughed wildly and put the NCR Rangers on edge with what they were doing. At first, the Rangers thought that Greer had gone mad and that their beatings were doing nothing. Well, they were half right. It wasn't that Greer was going mad, but it was that their beatings were doing nothing to him mentally, like they were physically. After realizing this, the NCR Ranger who had beaten Greer in the bar; brought him into the mix, and Greer was trained and gradually allowed entrance in the NCR Rangers.
Since then, Greer has travelled all around the NCR; giving out justice to Slavers and Raiders as well. When the war with the Brotherhood of Steel erupted, Greer was on the front lines of it all, and was in many urban battles. Mainly one of the major battles, The Battle of Shady Sands; where 60 heavily armored and armed Paladins and Knights came in, and almost raised Shady Sands to the ground. But luckily for the NCR Rangers, the Knights and Paladins were cut off from their "Lost Hills", and were gradually put out of action for good. Greer being the one to put the final bullet in the head of the final dying Paladin.

I really like this idea. I've even incorporated the war between the BoS and NCR in my own story. Consider this my reservation.

P.S. One problem with your story. That part about 60 brotherhood soldiers attacking Shady Sands seems inaccurate. The Brotherhood was in decline, so they couldn't have had that many troops at their disposal. Besides the whole point of power armor is to be a one man army. A major attack by the Brotherhood would only have involved 15 or 20 people.

This sure sounds good, I'll get a char sheet up in a bit when I have more time.

This sure sounds good, I'll get a char sheet up in a bit when I have more time.
EDIT
Ok here it is

Name:Calvin Chen
Age: 21
Race: Human/ Asian
Gender: male

Hair Color: Black
Eye Color: Brown
Skin Color: Lightly tanned

Hair length: cut shortly and neatly
Height:5'10
Weight: 140lbs


Armor:Combat armor, M17 gas mask, combat helmet, gloves
Weapons: http://world.guns.ru/assault/type95-1.jpg, 3 nerve gas grenades, 2 HE grenades, Laser pistol
Food: some packs of crackers, several tins of corned beef, a canteen of water
Extra Junk: 2 colored smoke grenades, radio, 2 flares, 3 stimpaks, weapon maintenance kit, NCR ranger patch, lock pick, book

Personality:Calvin is a very worrisome Ranger who is slightly paraniod about everything and believes in justice. He also prides himself on being a Jack of all trades and loves strange weaponry of all types. He wouldn't go charging when in a fight but prefers to fight cautiously and tactically, being very careful not to expose himself more than he needs to. He also takes calling himself an educated man.

Biography: Calvin was born in Shady sands as a descendant of a Chinese spy in America, he always wanted to see the world and to explore new things. The opportunity presented itself when the NCR was looking to form another Ranger company due to the hostility with the BOS. He was trained and deployed in one of the later battles against the BOS and earned the title of "special tactics specialist" for fooling a BOS knight into surrendering to him. He would do anything to keep the BOS from ever reaching Shady Sands for his father died when he was 8 and his mother is his only family left. Someday he hopes to settle down in someplace that is not a wasteland, though it is a far fetched dream.

Name: Kane Smith
Age: 35
Race: Human/Caucasian
Gender: Male

Hair Color: Gray
Eye Color: Dark Green
Skin Color: Slightly Pale

Hair Length: Long and Tangled
Height: 6'3
Weight: 170
Body Structure/Build: Lithe, like a runner


Armor: Worn out Combat Armor, Piece of leather rawhide(Ties hair back with it.)
Weapons:Mosin-Nagant w/ scope, Plasma Pistol, Combat Knife
Ammunition: 250x 7.62x54mm Rounds 30x Microfusion Cells
Food: Brahimn Steak, Nuka Cola, Salisbury Steak, InstaMash, Dirty Water
Extra Junk: Rifle Cleaning Kit, 7xStimpack, 6x Med-X, NCR Ranger Tatton on Left Arm

Personality:Kane is a thinker, he isn't a run-out guns blazing type of guy. He's calm even in the face of battle and follows directions to the letter. He likes to help people out and tries to, unless it gets in the way of his orders. In battle he's always in the back providing support, but will go out to the front if ordered.

Biography: Kane was born of mercenaries and was raised to be one himself, at the age of fifteen he was going on missions with his parents. By the time he was nineteen he was well on his way to being an excellent mercenary, and decided it was time for him to leave his parents. He made a fairly easy living with the money he earned, and never spent on drinks or drugs. Since he never had anything to do, he would jump at the chance for a fight. When the war broke out, Kane found himself hardly ever going home, and became known for taking any mission. All the battles, wounds, and sleep deprivation took a serious toll, making him look twice as old as he really is, and his insides are probably the same. His renown got him into the NCR Rangers, and hes taken on many missions for them. He's looking for retirement though, he wheezes sometimes, and has a slight limp on his left leg. He's career has also been sealed by the fact that he has arthritis, he's the only one that knows right now, but this mission will probably be his last.

@Wasteland Scholar_4: Yeah, I figured 60 would be to big, but I figured that maybe the lack of training for the BOS Knights would kinda compensate. I can always lower it to 10 though.

@Officer_Norman: Your accepted, and good looking character.

@Yttrium: Your already accepted, you know that.

Hopefully Stream will post his character tomorrow, and Wasteland Scholar_4, same with you. Then I'll probably cap this off, and we can get started. Unless others suddenly want to join, but please probably no more than one or two. This is my first Rp and all, and I wanna start off with a small group of players.

Still writing it up, should be in today.

I would like to get involved in this if possible.

How does this sheet look? wanted to put a character together that is slightly off the norm, with all these battle hardened heros about I wanted a fresh new recruit untried in the battle situation, and see how it unfolds.


Name: Karniest Moil
Age: 19
Race: Human
Gender: Male

Hair Color: Sandy Blonde
Eye Color: Almond
Skin Color: Lightly Tanned

Hair Length: Collar length
Height: 5'9
Weight: 125
Body Structure/Build: Thin and toned


Armor: Combat Armor, Combat helmet, Leather Gloves
Weapons: Sniper Rifle, .32 pistol, Combat Knife
Ammunition: 500 sniper rifle rounds (can remember their exact caliber) 30x .32 rounds
Food: 5x Salisbury Steak, 5x InstaMash, 2x canteens or water
Extra Junk: Gun Cleaning Kit, 5xStimpack, Lockpick, Wasteland Sniper Coat

Personality: Karniest is a new recruit, with little to no battle experience, he was trained as a sniper and is an excellent shot on the training field, but is yet to be tested under battle conditions. He is confident but quiet and unsure of how to present himself in the group of battle hardened soldiers.

Biography: Karniest grew up on a farm North of D.C. his father taking him hunting from the age of 5, by 7 years old he had killed countless animals and the taste of the hunt had him gripped. Every day from then on he could be found sneaking around the farm clearing the animals pens of rouge scorpions with his rifle. At 18 he joined up and spent the next 6 months basic training, which he followed with a specilisation as a sniper for the next 12 months. This is his first posting, and expected it to be quiet and just a run of the mill posting in the wasteland.

Note that my character, is just a fill in. I'm not a 100% participant. But my character will show up from time to time, and give you guys a bit of a push if the story slows down. This is entirely Fallout Hero's RP, and I will have no say in what happens. He just asked that I be in it, to make things keep moving. So just think of Krebbs as if he wasn't really there, but is.


Name: Joseph Krebbs
Age: 32
Race: Human/White
Gender: Male

Hair Color: Black
Eye Color: Brown
Skin Color: Dark tan

Hair Length: Short w/long bangs
Height: 6'
Weight: 200lbs
Body Structure/Build: Several scars around his back and chest, but well toned body. Several tattoo's of different things, and a gruff face.


Armor: Raider Painspike w/Raider Arc light Helmet
Clothes:N/A
Weapons: 2x Silenced 10mm Pistol, 2x Machete, x4 Smoke Grenade
Ammunition: x72 10mm Rounds
Food: Iguana-on-a-Stick, Insta-mash, Dirty Water, Rad-roach meat
Extra Junk: Whet Stone, Pistol Cleaning kit.

Personality: Joseph Krebbs is a silent man, one who is a man who has seen much and doesn't talk about it. He gives the impression of a man who has seem much, and also that what he's seen has ruined him in a way. Krebbs can be very violent and rude towards others who speak with him, and so usually no one speaks with him.

Biography: Born into a life of violence and abuse, Joseph Krebbs fled from his family at the age of 15, and was found by a woman living somewhere in what used to be Oregon. She helped feed and clothe him; while also teaching him the ways of the wasteland. After Joseph grew-up into a man, and the old woman died of age (or so he says), Joseph moved south into the NCR. At first he was just a lone Raider, taking only what he needed to survive. That was until he was captured by NCR Rangers, and after being imprisoned for seven years; he was granted a leave, and after seeing what the NCR Rangers could do/did to people; he joined. At first they were weary and didn't take Joseph in, but after seeing his skills at handling Raiders and Slavers. They accepted him, and he became a top notch "Specialist" with the NCR Rangers. He does not go out or do battle face to face like the other NCR Rangers, he has his own ways of dealing with things.

Personality: George is a cheery, generally well-liked person. Has a high standard of manners and a great moral code of honesty and sincerity. Devout abolitionist, sympathetic to the Unity and ghouls.
Biography: George was once a part of the Master's Army, never having any real duties himself. Through the FEV process, the rapid mutation broke his spirit and made him forget almost everything that had happened leading up to his transformation. From what little he remembers he could piece together living in a small farming community nestled in the mountains to the North.

After the destruction of the Master and the displacement of the Super Mutants, George sought solitude back in the mountains, hoping to return to the life he once had and rebuild it as a normal person. Instead, he found work on a small plantation just outside of an abandoned uranium mine. Here his benefactors instilled a moral code and sense of belonging in him through religious teachings.

When the Unity visited, he was immediately taken aback by their compassion for all races, and set off to settle in the newly formed Broken Hills. Made a living guarding caravans and shoveling Brahmin. On one of his recent caravan runs, he visited the capital of the NCR just as a group of slavers were being executed. Seeing the Rangers as a great opportunity to spread his abolitionist beliefs, he left the caravan and signed up for the Rangers.

Alright. Stream, you are accepted. And "Dr. Strangelove", thanks for posting that. Anyone else wanting to join, (1 person at the most), must PM me. If not, then I will have thick locked within half an hour. Then the real RP will begin soon enough, but I'm also juggling this, my story, and homework. So probably later tonight?

Also, I forgot to add that Stream is the only person allowed a Super Mutant character. He went by me first before creating, so I allowed. No one else is allowed. I think 1 Super Mutant is good enough in 1 squad.

Aww man, I would have loved to have joined this if I'd have gotten here sooner. I just got a good internet connection so I can be online more, and this is my kind of RP, I was in one like this quite a while ago.

Think you can make an exception for 1 more, Fallout Hero?

Yes, you can join if you like Jonas. But you are the last one. I am not accepting anymore characters from anyone. Jonas is the very last person to join.

Personality: The wary type of fellow you'd often find in a man whose seen the things Abe has. Being a Ranger has made him a helpful, friendly, overall good man. His keen senses can sum a person's intentions almost as quick as he can draw his pistols.

Biography: Abe was born into a Kansas family who owned and ran a large city out on the open plains. Rumor has it that it was the former city of Wichita before the bombs fell, which was a notorious mob city in the Pre-war times, and remained so even after the bombs. His father was not only the mayor, but also the head of the local crime-stopping force, and was known for using his twin pistols to stop the members of various gangs.

Abe was trained by his father to become an unnaturally talented marksman at an early age, later taking over the force and defending the city. But fate would have it, that when Abe was 24, a squadron of starving and "holier-than-thou-art" BOS troops would come along and "purge" the city of its crime. Abe and his men managed to kill them off in an extraordinary feat, but the damage was done. So they all parted ways. Abe eventually made his way to the Ranger HQ and joined, lending his near forgotten talents to them.

In the end he was sent to a seemingly worthless outpost, while Vault City suffered several attacks. Though he has little love for his people, Vault City itself was so beautiful compared to the empty wastes.

I would have joined, but I have lost my ability to Rp.

Only one way to get it back.

Start one up myself!



Yes, I know what you mean, get into the swing of things.

Sorry I didn't post up the RP earlier. My head was in serious headache breakdown mode, and I just slept most of the day doing that. I'll try and write up a opening for the RP now. Be watching for the official RP.

@ShadowStrike: It's alright, maybe next time you can join or something? Maybe if someone drops out or can't continue? But for the time, you'll just have to watch from the side lines; and see what happens. Sorry.

Any news on when this will be up and running, I have been looking at the boards but nothing I can see yet?
