Your Characters Lore!

[gt5t]

If you want at least one equally unapologeticly nerdy person to read your Characters summary/lore post it here! All I ask is you make it interesting and avoid basically saying "my character is god and masterfully proficient in everything". Anything that doesn't make sense for the base game will be assumed to be achieved by mods. So if you say you're a robot Ill assume you have the robot race mod ect...

 

As for my character, I'm a bounty hunter like I imagine most of us are, though I make a living in death dealing I am a peace seeker and generally do the right thing when I can. My preferred weapon is a bow but I use a crossbow for more reliable stopping power and easier shooting of modded bolts. I have 0 proficiency in firearms energy or otherwise, and stick mostly to tactical explosive usage, bow/thrown weapons, and unarmed combat of which I'm a master(typing that was almost too much for me), even possessing the ability to cause an enemies head and/or limbs to explode via pressure points, though rarely having an opening to do so due to enemies armor and.. well.. guns. My weaknesses are large fights where I don't have the element of surprise, and anything that has enough DT to not fear arrows and fists, though c4 arrows tend to do the trick when I'm lucky enough to have whats needed to craft them. In recent years (at higher levels) I've learned to make basic robots and discovered a convoluted process involving centaur blood that temporarily brings back corpses as Ghouls who attack all but the first they see until further death(lol) or deterioration occurs. Politically I remain neutral, though I have minor connections in numerous factions and have acquired a disliking for the legion after befriending a sniper in Novac and determining the fate of his wife. I prefer not to be followed (almost never have a follower with me), but have been looking into methods of Deathclaw taming for some time now, and sometimes recruit the help of my friend in Novac. Financially I'm set due to a stroke of knowledge and technology induced "luck" after betting 5000 caps on double zero in Roulette at the Gomorrah Casino, where I am banned for life. The majority of those caps stay buried in the Mojave, the only map to the stash residing in a sealed envelope along with instructions to use the caps for the hiring of bounty hunters to avenge me in the event of my death, the envelope was given to Doc Mitchell along with instructions to only open it if I die and no indication of its contents. There are further instructions to use the remaining caps to help the people of Goodsprings.

 

I'm sure I'm forgetting important things to mention about my awesome character but I just wanted to give a bit of an example of what I hope to read ^_^ Cheers.

Player characters bore me in the same way that looking in the mirror bores me... I would rather spend my time looking at the world around me and not obsessing over myself.

Well, people have different points of view. I know you from the Fallout 4 thread. I personally view characters as more than just avatars after playing with them for a while. I always cant help but create a personality for all of my characters in the games I play. Its not obsessing over myself, its obsessing over someone else I helped create.

[gt5t]

I don't know why, just whenever I play Skyrim or Fallout I feel like character lore makes things more interesting. I suppose its related to the way I play with self imposed rules, my characters story kind of helps me stick to a specific mannerism for the playthrough. All of which is very silly I know, but hey I enjoy it :smile:

 

For the record I too find the mirror quite boring.

Exactly my thoughts.

[jcdenton2012]

My character is usually, the "Humanoid Typhoon" who allows those that surrender to walk away 'once,' but if you try and kill me... then its on!! Unstoppable, non-negotiable, a force of nature more than a real person, and it really doesn't matter what you throw against me because it will never be enough... something Marko never understood. :sleep:

This is her story outline:

 

Rosemary "Hot Mama" Horton Biography

Name: Rosemary Malleus, aka Rosemary "Hot Mama" Horton.

Father: John Malleus

Mother: Rosemary Jean Malleus

Born: 01 April 2032, Olney, Maryland

The first born to a paternal twin sister, named Vera Jean Malleus, aka Vera Keyes, being born some 15 minutes later.

It was a difficult birth that cost them the life of their Mother and the wife of John Malleus.

She and Vera Jean were raised by their father in Olney Maryland, after the death of her mother.

She sang locally with her sister Vera Jean, they were a big hit together locally, and were very favorably compared to the two girls found in this old Hollywood film from 1936:

In 2042 as a 10 year old child for school science project along with her fathers help, she developed a portable hand held Holographic Scanner.

Which later became the basis of a prototype energy weapon developed by initially by the Z-38 lightwave dynamics research branch at the Big Mountain Research and Development Center, and then REPCONN Aerospace for what became the final assembly of the Q-36 Holographic Emitter Prototype.

2047

Graduated from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, with Doctorate degrees in theoretical Light Wave Principals, and Physical and Chemical Engineering

2057

Started touring the country with Johnny Uno and his Orchestra as Rosemary "Hot Mama" Horton.

2062

2068

May: Construction of Vault 92 ends.

Was there with her Father for Vault Completion Ceremonies.

Stopped touring with Johnny Uno was a well-known Jazz singer who sang at casinos with his band, except for Special Appearances.

2070

The first of the Chryslus Motors fusion-driven cars are developed. Reassuringly big and American, the limited models carry a hefty price tag but are sold out within days. Many Chryslus plants have long since been converted into making military ordnance.

Because of a commercial that she had done for Chryslus Motors, she got a job working for Vault Tec, doing commercials for the Vault Program.

Most famous for the one with the bomb going off at the breakfast table, played the mother named Doris:

Attended all of the Vault Tec Ground Breaking and Completion Ceremonies from May of 2068 with the end of Vault 92 Construction to June 2074, with the Construction of Vault 112 being completed.

2072

Continued to make Special Appearances with Johnny Uno, but only those in the west that allowed her to visit her sister Vera Jean.

2076

A special appearance of Johnny Uno and his Orchestra was requested by Robert House, in October of 2076, Rosemary was asked along with several other popular starlets of the day, to participate in a neuro-computational matrix scanning program, designed to demonstrate the ability to copy and store the data of the brain, so in case of catastrophic brain injury the essence and life data of the injured person maybe stored, in the hope that it may be able to be inserted into a cloned body or cybernetic robotic organism.

Ultimately she was able to determine that the scanning program was not so much as to save people from catastrophic brain injury, but for purposes of Entertainment for Robert House alone.

After confronting Robert House on this issue, he had her thrown out of the Lucky 38 casino, with the promise that she "would Never work in this town again".

In December 2076, she headed back home to Olney to be with her father, as things in the world were "going to hell in a hand basket", a phrase her Father used more frequently over the years when she spoke to him from the road as she had toured.

2077

October 23rd 2077, Vault 92 was sealed, Overseer Richard Rubin and Professor Malleus began the Vault-Tec Confidential Plan WNMSCE (White Noise Mindo Suggestion Combat Experimentation) program.

November 15th 2077, once people started dying, Professor Malleus, began research into what exactly was being broadcast in the vault.

He soon discovered that the Overseer of Vault 92, had been brainwashing the musicians, to create "super soldiers", he then confronted Overseer Rubin, with his findings.

Overseer Rubin, asked him to come and talk again later about the program, and to not be to hasty in trying to understand things beyond his control and clearance level.

November 27th 2077, Overseer Richard Rubin summons Professor Malleus to his office, to "set things straight", he would eventually shoot and kill him there to hide discovery of militarization of the Vault-Tec Confidential Plan WNMSCE (White Noise Mindo Suggestion Combat Experimentation) program.

Professor Malleus had suspected things were not as they seemed after his first visit with Overseer Richard Rubin, and after his return from that visit to his quarters, he gave a Vault Access and Control card, that he had secretly copied from Overseer Rubin's office terminal to Rosemary and told her to be ready if things went badly.

Unknown to Overseer Richard Rubin, Professor Malleus had set his Pipboy to broadcast that meeting back to Rosemary just in case things went badly, Professor Malleus was correct, things went Very Badly during that meeting.

When she heard Rubin shoot her father, Rosemary Malleus along with some others decided to make a sprint for the vault door, using the copied access card for sealed Vault Door.

After fighting their way to the Vault door there was a very brief, but ferocious gun battle of which only Rosemary survived, allowing her to finally exit Vault 92.

She made her way to her family home, which was just to the east to the Vault entrance, where she was able to scavenge enough supplies from there and the town of Olney to survive the next ten years, living in the area and expanding her search for anything that she could survive on.

Over the coming days and months she began to notice changes in her body, she knew had to come from the radiation that was prevalent in Olney, and every where else.

Slowly but surely she began to change, and no amount of Radaway would flush out her system long enough to halt that progress, that process eventually led to her Ghoulification.

She thought of just ending it many times early on, but something inside of her stopped that destructive behavior, understanding that no matter what her body had become she was still the same person on the inside where it really matters, and that thought process and others eventually lead to her deciding to help as many others as she could to survive, as she had learned how to do.

So for the next 150 years she wandered what used to be called New England, and up and down the eastern seaboard as well, sometimes on foot and other times on old steam ships that others had managed to get up and running again.

Eventually she settled in with the founding members of a Ghoul city named Underworld in 2228 at the old Museum of History in Washington D.C., as a Primary Procurement Specialist for the group along with a very good friend she had made along the way named Willow.

Sometime during the mid 2270's Rosemary started hearing rumors of someone she thought long since dead, that person being Robert House.

She decided to head west to what she remembered as Las Vegas, she had played there so may years ago at that last special appearance with Johnny Uno, so she could see for herself if the rumors were true that Robert House had survived and returned.

She would head west using the same skills she had developed in Underworld, and other skills as a courier, up and down the eastern seaboard always taking jobs that she could deliver westward, moving her toward her destination of what she remember and used to be Las Vegas, Nevada.

As she made that journey west, walking the same rails she had ridden in luxury all of those many years before, she remembered her life as a child, and the toy she had made with her fathers help for that science fair so long ago came to mind.

Her father had told her that he had taken her work further, and sent the data out west to the Big Mountain Research and Development Center, and then REPCONN Aerospace for some sort of prototype based upon her design.

These two things would be good enough to drive her westward for now, and that was enough, it was a goal, and having one had helped her to survive all of those many years.

She also knew her sister Vera had stayed out west to further her acting and singing career, she had no hope that she would ever find her again but a slim one, based upon that she had some how made it, maybe Lady Luck would have would have a spin with Vera as well.

She had little contact with her sister, once she had started seeing Dean Domino.

She knew Dean from her time on the entertainment circuit that he was not the kind of man to be trusted, she had sensed something wrong about that man, and told Vera so.

Vera rejected such nonsense, and eventually stopped all contact with Rosemary and her father after a particularly heated argument, and Dean's insistence, when Vera had told her about some big plan that she and Dean had for the Grand Opening of the Serria Madre casino.

Dean Domino Always had Big Plans, and he had strung many a girl along with them, Rosemary was sure he was doing that again this time as well, but with her sister.

No matter what Rosemary tried Vera wouldn't listen, she would listen to no one, not even her father.

Vera Jean had taken another path, as she did not have the aptitude for the sciences that her father, mother and sister had, her preferred area was always in the Arts, acting, singing and dancing, and so it was that she kept to that path with Dean Domino.

One morning with the last song Vera had recorded in her mind as she hummed the melody of Begin Again, she set her feet walking in a westward direction to find answers to questions, that she her self was not quite sure really mattered after all of this time, and to Begin Again.
