I've been talking with some of my friends lately... and we all agree it would be totally awesome if we made our own mod. If you have any experience making mods, we would greatly appreciate your help. Here we will be discussing the following topics:
- Ideas for main quests
- Ideas for character back stories (sidequests)
- Ideas for mod name
- Ideas for other misc. stuff
Please leave a comment below of what you think!
PLOT *This can completely change, so don't think we are not open to plot suggestions.
Intro
The story takes place in the year 2077 in the ruins of the mojave wasteland. Lately locals have reported seeing a increasing number of brahmin entering the valley, but these are not your ordinary post-apocalyptic two headed cows. There have been rumors from the north that a plague has been spreading across the states. We now believe that the brahmin are the source. Thankfully, as far as we know this doesn't affect humans. Or... so we thought.
Years back, Vault 3 had one of the most advanced labs in the mojave. The residents of Vault 3 were experiencing severe depression and many were dying from starvation, many thought it would be in the best interest to abandon it but the overseer forbid it, no one would be able to leave. The residents began developing a drug that could fool your brain into thinking that you were not hungry. In order to make sure the drug was safe, it was tested on the brahmin who occasionally graze outside the vault door. In first few days the drug seems liked a success, the brahmin had hardly eaten anything and seemed to be able to function perfectly. But as days passed, the brahmin starting sleeping for longer periods of time. Soon they started only waking up to eat, then they wouldn't eat at all. Eventually they stopped moving completely. All the brahmin who where dosed died after two and a half weeks, all except for one. Her name was Queenie. For an unknown reason the effects on Quennie were the complete opposite.They had to separate her from the rest of the brahmin because she would bite the others. She turned into a savage beast who's hunger couldn't seem to be satisfied. The whole project was a failure. The overseer order that Quennie be exterminated with all the remaining samples, only they weren't. The lead pharmacist let Quennie loose and secretly stashed the few samples that were left in his personal belongings. Life in the vault continued until an accidental water leak occurred, forcing the residents to open the vault to find help. The original Vault 3 inhabitants opened their doors and began to trade with people outside the vault. For a time, it went well and the inhabitants made a good living. However, this also brought the vault to the attention of the Fiends who at the time, were nothing but a small gang of four wastelanders. The inhabitants hadn't set up any security, so the Fiends found little difficulty in raiding and taking the vault. All the original residents of the vault were killed and soon the vault belonged to the Fiends. Motor-Runner, the leader of the Fiends, discovered the stash of samples while looting the belongings of the previous residents. He injected himself with it. Just over a month passed and there gang had already grown. Motor-Runner had become more and more aggressive, he ate more and more everyday, he would often rape Violet, one of the original Fiends. Motor-Runner had become a true savage. Cook-Cook noticed, and began refusing to give him more food than the others. Motor-Runner confronted him in his residence one evening, threatening that he would kick him from the vault if he didn't feed him. Cook-Cook refused, so Motor-Runner ran up to him and bit him. Thus spreading what was in the sample he injected himself with. Before long the entire vault was infected, and the Fiends began roaming the mojave spreading the virus to others. The Fiends overran Camp McCarran during the Second Battle of Hoover Dam. In the anarchic months that followed, the Fiends asserted dominance over Outer Vegas.
