'class' based abilities

[Modpleaseinedsit]

i recently heard about how the children of atom all seem to have some natural immunity to rads, and it gave me the idea of having the sole survivor be able to have this ability

 

 

 

so, i figured why stop there?

 

the basic concept is that you'd be able to select one of a few different classes or lifestyles that can give you abilities and maybe even some drawbacks in a way that works for immersive roleplay type way

 

 

 

 

current ideas are:

 

child of the atom- start with a base 50% rad resistance, which increases by 2.5% with every level up to level 10, which then increases to 5% per level. drawbacks being that you NEED radiation to live, which can be as extreme as needing a 'rad helmet' to keep you alive which you can get during a mission you get given at 75% (level 10)

 

 

beast tamer- you do 25% more damage to animals, and they do 25% less damage to you. smaller creatures don't attack on sight and instead try scaring you off at first, though anything bigger than a radscorpion attacks as usual. you can domesticate animals temporarily, as long as it isn't allied with any humanoid faction like super mutants or raiders. every 5 levels the size of the creature you can domesticate increases

 

 

synth- 10 damage resistance to most types of damage, 15% increase to damage with laser weapons. drawbacks would be a 25% weakness to electrical damage. ALL brotherhood attack on sight by default

 

 

 

i'm happy to hear suggestions too! thanks for reading.
