The Hobo is already introduced in this thread, but now he's come to the Commonwealth and another introduction is in order.

Nickname: the Hobo

Real name: only the Hobo knows

Status: alive

Race: Caucasian

Gender: Male

Age: dangerously close to 70

SPECIAL: S8-P5-E10-C1-I6-A8-L5

Most skilled in: Explosives, Guns, Repairing / modding stuff

Traits: none

Place of birth: some vault

Home: "Home is where my pillow is" By the Hobo

What they do for a living: eating and breathing

Factions: none

Companions: Mutt, the glowing dog

Love interests: there used to be one girl...like what? 50 years ago?

Physical Appearance: HawBaw

Eyes: brown

Build: way taller and stronger than average wastelander

Habits: talking to himself, listening to Enclave and CONEL-RAD radio stations, collecting various junk, stocking up on pre-war money, creating custom weapons, climbing on high places and watching wastes from above, collecting bobbleheads and pre-war magazines, smoking, drinking beer, wine and nuka-cola, listening to legends about Loviatar and seeing remains of her work in person

Weapons of preference: Hunting Rifle, Railway Rifle, Shishkebab, grenades & mines

Clothing: scavenger outfit, Chinese General Hat, huge backpack

Magic abilities or powers: the Hobo can perceive certain visions from the past and he's partly psychic - if he dreams of his own death, he knows that it's better to avoid that place.

Miscellaneous: he never carries more than one bottle cap because two or more bring bad luck and might attract unwanted attention of swans

Theme song: John Prine - The Hobo Song

Biography/Life History: the Hobo vaguely remembers his past - he was born in some vault, of that he's sure. He was special in some way, that's why other children didn't like to play with him and his own parents seemed to be afraid of him at times. Probably because he could sometimes foretell the future and some people didn't want to know what's going to happen to them.

Whether he left the vault willingly or was he exiled, he doesn't want to remember. There was some explosion, of that he's sure, and the Hobo thinks it's because of this explosion that his memory isn't what it used to be. Ever since he's been out in the wastes, he's been a wanderer without any true purpose except for wandering around. He's been all over the post-war USA and wherever he comes, animals like him and the Hobo likes them too. The Hobo doesn't like people and generally avoids settlements, though very rarely he can be seen in some settlements, exchanging junk for junk. Despite avoiding contacts, the Hobo might help wastelanders in need but he can't stand it afterwards, when they thank him.

But if you see him slowly walking down some road, don't underestimate him just because of his looks. The Hobo can be very deadly if you piss him off and he can attack with an assortment of weapons, from the simple hunting rifle which you should consider as your lucky death, or the painful railway rifle whose deadly spikes will cripple your limbs, he can toss various grenades at you, but if you're on the Hobo's black list, he'll turn on the shishkebab, called the flaming sword, and burn you down.

The Hobo is very good at doing nothing. He can spend a lot of time in a same place, and he often walks back and forth between locations he's already been to. He covers very short distances in a very long time. He doesn't like sleeping indoors, because then he can't hear birds in the morning. He doesn't like exploring at nighttime, because he wants to watch the Moon.

Habits: "talking to himself..." "... climbing on high places and watching from above...." rollinglaugh.gif That must be a laid-back roleplay, being with him sometimes, because the guy really does seem random. It's probably like when I play Sims 3, I often am doing two things at once.

Yeah, his theme song is definitely appropriate.

So is all of this...

@Acadian & SubRosa - thanks!

@Renee - it's a laid-back roleplay most of the time indeed. But if attacked, the Hobo can be dangerous, something that many raiders realize when it's already too late. Then again, he never attacks as the first, he always defends himself. I forgot to mention that when the Hobo talks to himself, most of the time he grumbles about something - about anything, he grumbles 90% of the time. bigsmile.gif

I was not sure if I'd added Vicious to this thread yet, turns out I have. However, there are several things which have changed as we've gotten to know her better.

I decided to leave the original post from 2019 in this thread, just for perspective. For instance, I called her Dee Licious back then. laugh.gif Which makes me think of Dee Snyder of the '80s band Twisted Sister. Perhaps my original goal with "Dee" was to make her some sort of rock star-looking chick, and I do remember installing a porno mod (which I never used) in which we can join some sort of X-rated faction. My how things have changed.

----------------

Real name: Taneesha Jones

Game / Platform: Fallout 3 / PC

Nickname: Miss Vicious Delicious

Status: Alive

Race: Black

Gender: F

Age: 19

Religion: Christian, Church of Atom

Reputation: This is complicated since Vicious has a double life. She lives by her own code-of-honor which is partially influenced by her religious background, and partially influenced by her current morality, which is mostly good. However, she is also a raider, and addicted to certain chems. She sometimes doesn't do the right thing. With this mixture of background, personal morals, and raider membership, she usually stays quiet. Flies under the radar, trying to stay out of trouble. But she has no problem taunting or fighting those whom she feels are hurtful to others.

So, hypothetically, her reputation could be an average, quiet, do-gooding Wastelander, a troublemaker, or a vicious, shotgun-toting outlaw.

Alignment: Fallout-type games don't use these but I suppose Chaotic Neutral

SPECIAL: S4, P5, E5, C7, I7, A7, L5

Tagged skills: Small Guns and Repair.

Traits:

Place of birth: Baltimore (or what's left of it).

Home: Springvale Elementary. She also lives occasionally with Lucy West in Megaton.

What they do for a living: Raider missions / looting.

Factions: Raider

Companions: Bratty (on right) is her best friend, and Q Tip is her boyfriend. She travels with either or both of them, though she cannot take them into 'civilized' areas such as Megaton or Big Town.

Love interests: Q Tip

Physical Appearance: Parkstroller Outfit pic, Green Dress Pic,

Eyes: Yes, two of them.

Build: slender and twenty-something

Habits: (BAD) Smoking, occasional drinking. Vicious prefers sedatives when it comes to chems. (GOOD) strolling about town, adventuring when not on missions.

Weapons of preference: shotguns and her lead pipe. She's been carrying a mod-added stun gun as well.

Clothing: When going into towns she can appear stylish. At night (if looting) she switches to common-looking clothes (such as Brahmin outfit) so she can blend, and sneak about comfortably. When going on raider missions, she wears a particular raider armor set, but I forget which one.

Miscellaneous: Vicious begins her game through Alternate Start - Roleplayers, which conveniently allows one to start the game as a raider.

- She is my first to go without a Pip Boy on her arm. Instead, she carries one in her pocket, a Pipboy 2500 which has been converted to Pipgirl images.

Theme songs: Halestorm's Vicious, En Vogue's My Lovin' ... Vicious and Delicious, see? :biggrin:

Biography/Life History: Vicious Delicious was born in mysterious circumstances somewhere in Baltimore. I believe her mother got killed and the child abandoned. She was adopted by Jehovah's Witnesses living in a temple in Ellicott City, Maryland, and named Taneesha Jones by them. She was raised throughout her teenage years by them. Witnesses are strict and religious, believing that someday, the world is coming to an end. This is the background for her early life.

When Taneesha turned 14, the Witnesses began spreading The Word in the area surrounding their temple, handing out pamphlets made from their printing press, and annoying non-believers just like modern Witnesses do. Taneesha heard about their forays, and by the age of 17 began traveling with them, mostly to see the world, which she'd been sheltered from. They eventually branched south, taking young Taneesha with them. They wound up in the Capitol Wasteland, where they heard civilized populations were greater.

At some point though, their party got attacked. All of them either dispersed or got killed. Taneesha by this point had plenty of weapons training, and at a young age she had taught herself how to pick locks. Young and fearing for her life, she was taken in by the first group (gang, really) she came across, which happened to be raiders. And the raiders appreciated Taneesha's talents for lockpicking and gunplay.

Taneesha earned the nickname Vicious Delicious at some point as she turned 18. She quickly rose in rank within the raiders for awhile, attracting the attention of Dogmaster, the Potomac raiders' top boss. But things went wrong somewhere along the way, and Vicious temporarily was ousted from their organization. She was drugged, kidnapped, and moved to a faraway location.

After fighting her way back to Megaton (including killing most of the raiders of Fairfax Ruins) Vicious again attracted the attention of Dogmaster, who adopted her back in during the summer of 2277. Now a raider once again, she's been performing missions for them.

Name: Faye

Status: alive and kicking

Race: Caucasian

Gender: Female

Age: unknown, presumably late 20s

Starting SPECIAL: S4-P5-E4-C1-I2-A9-L3

Skilled in: Picking locks, Melee, Sneak

Place of birth: unknown

Home: nowhere

What they do for a living: nothing, she merely tries to survive

Factions: none

Companions: none

Love interests: none

Physical Appearance: Faye

Eyes: hazy blue

Build: slim

Habits: using all kinds of drugs

Mental status: deranged, antisocial

Weapons of preference: meat hook, simple pistols

Clothing: torn tank & shorts

Miscellaneous: Faye is one of those characters, that I know very little about. The only two facts beside her name, that were revealed to me as I spend time with her, are that she spent a lot of time in some sort of a captivity in the past and that she loathes men. The origin behind her cannibalism is unknown but she never devours women, so it has something to do with her hatred against men. Faye spends her time in the Downtown Boston, trying to survive from today to tomorrow, she doesn't have any goals. She attacks only if she thinks that she has a chance of winning, so her targets are mostly lone wanderers / scavengers / raiders - she never attacks a group of enemies or someone wearing a powerful weapon or armor. Her preferred method of attacking is sneaking up from behind and stabbing enemies with her meat hook, though she's proficient in using guns as well, if a need arises.

-- Yes, I did use a page full of Justin Beiber images to make Justin Case. embarrased.gif I also made an effort to choose Attributes and Traits which mirror the pop star. So, Small Frame (Beiber is agile for sure), lots of Charisma. Only difference is my Justin will be good at Melee Weapons.

Oh yeah, the real Justin is a prankster and also kind of annoying so I chose Loose Cannon for his other trait.

That's a good combo for New Vegas. goodjob.gif

I wondered if he was inspired by Justin Bieber. laugh.gif You know, just in case.

Nice haircut! laugh.gif

Ha it's going to be fun getting sunglasses / outfits for the Biebs.

Hey Lopov, isn't there a "soft save" point while we're in Goodsprings, still doing the tutorial? There is a point during which we can save our stats, character looks, race, and so on, but this option happens later, right?

I'm just wondering if I save this soft save, I can maybe use it to make other characters in the future. So I don't have to start all over with the doctor and all that.

There is a point at the end of the tutorial that is just like in the Fallout 3 and 4, and Oblivion, where you can completely rebuild your character. Face, attributes, skills, etc... It is at the end of the little quest you go on with Sunny to clear out the geckos from the water faucets.

Oh, and does Justin have a cousin named... Justin Thyme?

HUh, so Fallout 4 also has that convenient save point, for those who don't want to do the entire tutorial over again? That's good. So Skyrim is the only odd game. - I mean, I enjoyed it yesterday, but I plan on making other characters.

Ha ha yeah, I have considered Justin Time as a name as well. I only chose Justin Case because it comes first, alphabetically. But there are a lot of silly names which can be used in Fallout because it's more modern, yet which would be out of place in ES games.
