Set out with a new character last night - Copper

Only a couple of hours in so she's only just got her home at Red Rocket set up. After playing a couple of hundred hours with Alice, a new character is quite refreshing.

Wow, look at her! I like that name, Copper. It just sounds like a Fallout name, for some reason.

She's looking quite punk rock/grunge! Like her a lot!

Nice, hazmick! Looking at her hair I think I see the inspiration for her name.

Her name (and hair) puts this song in my head.

She is looking appropriately Irish with her green pipboy and baldric. She just needs a clan tartan!

And wow, a stone wall that is actually even along the top, and grass in Red Rocket! How did you manage that?

Glad everyone likes Copper! I'm still learning about her, but so far I know that she likes tinkering/building and dislikes talking to people more than is necessary.

SubRosa - the wall is the concrete wall from the concrete tab of the building menu (not sure if you need a specific DLC for that, I can't remember) which works really well since the sections click into place and can clip through the floor. The grass is from a mod called 'Green in the Commonwealth' which adds lots of grass, flowers, leaves etc. I'm thinking of looking for a new overhaul mod though because this one can be a little laggy.

When Khajiit thinks copper in Fallout4, electrical wires come to mind. Perhaps she would fancy hacking, robotics, and Science!? What is her SPECIAL?

Learned more about Copper today - she likes dogs, protectrons, and mole rats. She dislikes ghouls and insects.

Undivided attention

Friendship

Not friendship

Not sure what's so "Super Duper" about this mart

Copper also loves Nuka Girl

The Good

The Bad

The...Gary?


I had a sort of scavenger character in mind when I was thinking about making her, so yep definitely some robots. Her special started at 3,4,3,3,8,3,4 but she's since gone up 2 points in charisma.

Nice pics Haz! Love the creative things Beth did with the teddy bears in this game! Also, Khajiit sees that he is not the only one who likes the white setting on the HUD.

Yep, white HUD is best HUD. All the other colours give me a headache.

Relaxing at home

Ghouls in the mist

First visit to the big city

Hazmick, I always enjoy your screenshots. Hard to pin down exactly why but whatever it is, it translates from ESO to FO quite nicely. Glad you're enjoying Copper!

Oops, I forgot to reply before. Copper is still fantastic! She has my attention.

But she wasn't wearing a hard hat around the construction bot. Did it attack her? Or did she program it with a different personality before activating it?

Love all the teddy pics. Beth really outdoes themselves when they think of things to do with them.

Great view from the top of Corvega. I love going up there. Especially with snipers.

Ghoulrillas in the Mist!

Copper looks like somebody I used to know when I was younger in the first pic. Seriously, even the way she's dressed,

I really love the slight blur of mist in the ghouls picture.

Acadian: TBH, I think the Sirius Armor she wears makes Hecate's waist look too thin, like she's a heroin junkie.


hazmick: Hecate missed the mutant's vital spots. She hit it in the head!

I have always liked the sleek, high tech armor look. Like the suits in Mass Effect.


Renee: Silhouette is one of the hardest words to spell! Look, I got it right the first time too!

I never do RP my characters meeting up. I imagine that Hecate and Annie would get along. Hecate is more idealistic, and would sooner talk than shoot. Annie is a lot more cynical, being a former assassin and all. But all cynics started out as idealists. Othwerwise they wouldn't be cynical. Hecate would give Annie a sense of hope. Annie would keep Hecate grounded in reality. They would make a good team in fact. Hecate is the long range, one-shot, one-kill sniper. Annie is the up-close infantry type with an assault rifle. Together the could cover any situation.

Elektra is pretty much a loner, being a stealth ninja. Persephone is that taken to 11. She doesn't befriend anyone until they are dead (it's too bad you can summon undead in the Fallout games, she's not the same without the Darryl's around to back her up). Finally Loviatar would want to eat all the other characters of course...


Lopov: That stone tower does look a lot like the Syrim towers. I guess that is to be expected, being Bethesda and all. I am not sure what it was supposed to have been before the war. But it is a cool place after the war.


TheCheshireKhajiit: My first time to Lynn Woods I sneaked into the Raider camp and climbed that tower, thinking it would make a great sniper position. I saw that button and knew pushing it would be a very bad idea. So of course I pushed it! I expected the Raiders to come running. But I was laughing when I saw the Deathclaws show up too! It is almost as much fun as watching Giants smash Bandits to the moon in Skyrim.




Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water

One if by land, two if by sea

Spot the sniper...

...Before she spots you.

'Just when you thought it was safe...' engenders somewhat of a familiar eerie feeling. I'm sure I've seen some of your other characters rise from the depths just as ominously.

Oooh! I found the sniper! Good perch and nice shot she took!

Hecate is emerging like the creature from the black lagoon except that Hecate is much, much prettier.

Nice little lantern in front of Hecate in the 2nd pic.

She's hard to spot in the third pic.

Such masks can only be worn by psychos.

Yes, I can see Hecate and Annie working in tandem. At least they won't get eaten by Loviatar if they stick together. Elektra won't have to worry though; she's surrounded by her camera crew.

I can't see your sniper in that second pic at all. I only see a faint shadow. Wow, look at the detail in those bricks though. And the way the sunlight strikes those brick houses in the distance!

I know nothing about guns. The one she's got in that first pic looks like something from WWII.

SubRosa - I always make sure to set Protectrons to the law enforcement personality. Doesn't seem to require any sort of identification to get them on your side.

Love those Hecate shots (camera shots and rifle shots).




Some Copper:
Heading out

Spooky

Spookier

Problem solved

"Ah, hello. This wouldn't happen to be the super secret underground Railroad hideout, would it?"

Looks like Copper has been to Nuka World, and all she has to show for it is a lousy T-Shirt!

Oooh, she's under the Old North Church. Is Copper going to join the Railroad?

She took a load off that Feral's mind!

All aboard the Railroad!

This one is Khajiit's fav!
