Looks like the Cho Zen Wan is feeling less than chosen, and more like one. It looks like Gob cannot even cheer him up.

[TheCheshireKhajiit]

Oh it’s our bro, Cho! Sounds like the BoS are trying to get him killed lol

[mirocu]

Did some scouting today and when getting to the spot close to the Academy where there's always a bunch of deathclaws, I was surprised to find no Outcasts there. There's always a group of four to five members fighting those deathclaws but not this time. Had to dispose of the monsters myself together with Gunny.

I hope they are back next time since I get tons of caps from their loot. I also always resurrect the Outcasts after looting them to ensure they are always there. Guess they got tired of getting mauled by the deathclaws

Just doing my thing

[SubRosa]

I started playing Loviatar again a few days ago. She is starting to eat her way through the Commonwealth. Today she went to Concord, and helped 'save' Preston and company from the Raiders. But once she cleared the Raiders from the Museum, she killed Preston, Sturges, and everyone else.

I didn't need a mod to do it. This is an effect of the weird bug my game has been having where Essential status does not work on any npcs. Before she killed Preston she set up shop at Red Rocket. She did not want a cute dog around, so sent Dogmeat to live in Sanctuary. The next day she found Dogmeat dead on the road south of Red Rocket (I have no idea why he went south instead of north to Sanctuary). The two Bloodbugs that lurk by the dead Brahmin had killed him.

So it looks like I have more NPCs to add to my mod that adds a zillion health to the ones who are supposed to be Essential, like all the companions and traveling merchants.

OTOH, I did what many people dream of, I killed Preston Garvey!

One interesting thing is that after killing Preston and the others Loviatar went up on the roof and got the power armor. She jumped down to the street, but the usual attack of Raiders led by Gristle never happened. It was all quiet. The Deathclaw never came busting out of the sewer either. Loviatar went down into the access tunnels and cleared them out. I could hear the Deathclaw breathing near its lair down there. But it wasn't there either. I had to use TCL to walk through the walls to get to the lair, because there is only one door to get in that section, and it is chained from the inside. The only other way in that part is from the sewer area that the Deathclaw normally comes bursting out of. But those metal plates cannot be budged. So there must be a sound effect down there, but nothing else.

I also made an interesting discovery about one of the settlers.

Yes! Khajiit discovered these things once as well (while trying to decide if it was better for Victoria to kill all of the Quinzy crew or coexist with them).

[Renee]

Ahhh, it's Loviatar!!!

[SubRosa]

I learned something else interesting about killing off Preston and company in the Museum. Loviatar has been eating the northern area of the map. She stopped by Tenpines Bluff for a light snack. But no one was there. I used the workshop to be certain, and sure enough, there were no settlers. I think they must be added after you escort Preston back to Sanctuary and he asks you to help a settlement (for the first time). I guess those settlers are hardcoded for that first Minuteman quest.

I don't know how long I will play Loviatar though. She is a hard character to play, because of how evil she is. It is difficult killing innocent people and eating them. But she looks awesome!

[Kane]

Sounds like a bug, 'Rosa. I just took a new character there after leaving Preston & Co. waiting forever in the museum lobby, and the settlers were there. One even tried to approach me as I passed through.

[SubRosa]

It might be a bug. Or their lucky day. Or maybe they spawn somewhere between when you first meet them and before you take them out the door. Loviatar killed them the moment she saw them, trapped in that upstairs room.

Same for Victoria when she tested it out. Threw a couple of frag grenades in the room where you first meet them and then just mopped up whoever was left with gunfire.

Yeah. This. I know what you're talking about. Lopov also had a few characters who he could only game with briefly, because their needs were too intense. He'd tell me these things when we PM'd. Oddly, he did not go through much emotion with Rattler though. I'd be really shocked about some of the stuff Rattler would do (like kill and eat Three Dog) but he'd merely shrug it off.

[Renee]

Hey. My name is Marc. Marc Mywards. I am from Amarillo Springs, Texas, or what used to be called Amarillo Springs. Not sure how or why, all's I know is now I'm in Nevada, or what used to be called Nevada. Wound up here 'cause things got too tough where I'm from, plus I wanna see all these fancy casinos everyone's been flappin' so long about. Maybe find me a purty little thing up here. Settle down.

Am in a place called Goodsprings. Or ... I should say I was in a place called Goodsprings. Wandered around there day or two, and already I'm lost. All the locals was sayin' I need to check out some sort of school though. I could go in there, mosey around, maybe find some supplies and whatnot. Well, I begin my wanderin', next thing I know I'm so lost, turnin' three-sixties ... can't even see the damn town no more. '

Well, [censored] it. I'm going to wander around some more. Maybe find me a casino, try my luck, mark my words. Maybe find me a purty little thang. Hmm ... what's that up ahead? Guess I'd better shut my gums and get me six-shooter ready.

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

Non-RP version: Yeah, so already Marc got lost Which is okay. His game so far is pretty loose, and I'm not sure how long I'll be gaming with him because I don't really feel much connection. But that's okay. I already have some future character ideas, stuff which wouldn't work in Elder Scrolls. Characters with silly names which are too "modern" for Elder Scrolls, as well.

[Renee]

10:21:81, 9:37: Karen Aboucha wanders around Goodsprings, looking for a broc flower. Once she finds one, she'll then try to find Sunny, because it was Sunny who wanted Karen to find one of these flowers.

A couple things I have learned about Karen. 1). she is a teetotaler. No alcohol! No chems that aren't necessary! She's like the opposite of Janet Telia! ... 2). She will not do the main quest. She's just not the one who'll do it.

I decided to turn Hardcore Mode on in her game, because she's mostly hanging out in the Goodsprings area for awhile. I want to get used to HC slowly, you see.

Khajiit likes the “Hardcore Mode” in NV, for the most part. This one was really glad when they decided to include one in Fallout4.

Karen looks like she’s getting along great!

It just adds that extra 'something'. Makes it feel like my character isn't just a toon, but more of a person.

Well I was going to write a Cho update today, and I know everyone's been wondering what the heck is going on with him. Looks like we'll have to keep waiting though. Just got invited to this thing at the lakefront and I just can't resist. Too nice outside.

Oh yeah, lakefront thing sounds fun! That said it would be interesting to see what the BoS is having Cho do this time that could very likely get him killed

Watch out for Mirelurks at the lake! Better brings some frag mines, and a .308.

Hey. I'm back. And I got what I wanted. Yup, I went into the Citadel broke, but now I got over a thousand caps, not to mention a small platoon of men to help me get to Olney. I'm calling my men "The Delta Squad". They all wear power armor, something I've not been trained in yet. Break.

So we're headed north now, right guys?

unidentified male voice: Hell yeah, going to kick some Wasteland ASS! *unidentified word*

Yeah, that's the spirit. If I'm going to take the Enclave on during this mission, I at least get some [censored] men with me, right? Break.

unidentified sounds ... Pipboy App cannot decipher..... 10 seconds ..... 20 seconds....

Okay, I had to step away from those guys before I say this. Because... well, now I really need to keep these electronic journals to myself. I mean, because I basically stole a bunch of caps from the Brotherhood. Long story, but I went in there asking for some financial assistance, you know? But all I got was what they called 'the runaround' in days of yore. Spoke to Elder Lyons directly, and he told me to speak to Scribe Jameson. So I go and search for her. I mean, that alone took a couple hours. Meanwhile, THEY should be coming to ME, you know? Break.

Miss Jameson finally gave me a hundred caps after I pleaded with her, stating my case and all, while they sit on their asses. A hundred [censored]ing caps, that is all. Break.

But then, much later on another scribe woke me up from sleep. Scribe L. Scrabble, that same guy who gave me that Miroku gun last week. He wakes me up, says that all the rumors are true. The Citadel has some sort of special room where they keep a lot of caps. Long story, but I found this room, which was merely a locked maintenance closet. Hacked its computer, which unlocked a hidden safe. And lo, thousands of caps at my disposal. Now I am ready. Break.

I didn't take them all though. Matter of fact, I probably only took maybe ten percent of what was in there. Don't want them to get suspicious. But dammit. I hate that I had to do that. But I had to do it. Break.

We're off to Megaton now. And looks like there's some raiders camped out under that bridge up ahead. Yet again. Will they ever learn?

Pipboy App OFF!
