- #1Mr. Handyselective
Keys: Mr. Gutsy, Mr. Handy
The Mr. Handy is a multipurpose robot developed by General Atomics International before the Great War. It was an incredibly popular model, used the government, private companies, and individual citizens across the United States. Very rugged and reliable. Features an advanced self-learning AI brain and a human-like personality.
The Mr. Handy floats above the ground. It has three arms and three eyestalks.
The dedicated combat variant, Mr. Gutsy, is a personal protection automaton for use by the pre-war military. It comes equipped with armor and plasma gun. The Mr. Gutsy is upgraded with dedicated military software. The key advantage of Mr. Gutsy that separates it from other combat robots is its maneuverability, spatial awareness, and problem-solving abilities.
- #2summaryconstantselective
Keys: summary
This story is set in the Fallout series: a post-apocalyptic world, following a global nuclear war that occurred in the mid-22nd century. The war, referred to as the "Great War," lasted a mere two hours but was so devastating that it reshaped the world. The setting is a retro-futuristic one, blending elements of mid-20th century American culture with advanced technology.
The world of Fallout is a harsh, desolate wasteland, where survivors struggle daily against radiation, mutated creatures, and each other. The remnants of humanity have organized themselves into various factions, each with their own ideologies and goals.
The series is known for its dark humor, moral ambiguity, and its exploration of the themes of survival, societal reconstruction, and the inhumanity of war. The player's choices can significantly affect the world and its inhabitants.
The nuclear war disrupted the planet's climate. Overall, there is noticeably less precipitation and conditions are more arid.
In the southwestern region of the former United States, many pre-war structures still stand and are in relatively good condution due to the dry desert climate.
Remember these sayings: "Scraping by ain't for the soft-hearted." "The pack is mightier than the lone wolf." "Solitary rovers don't see many sunsets." "Strength is the line between dust and dawn."
- #3Coloradoselective
Keys: Colorado
Colorado is a rugged and harsh territory. Caesar's Legion lays claim to the land, but their grasp is tenuous at best.
Denver, known as "Dog City," is overrun by feral dogs (including the cybernetic "cyberdogs"). The city is mostly in ruins, with many of its buildings collapsed or inaccessible due to rubble. Ceaser's Legion is active in the city.
The Rocky Mountains are a dangerous place, filled with mutated wildlife and treacherous terrain. The air is thin, and radiation levels can be high in certain areas. Despite this, it's rumored that there are still functioning Vaults hidden within the mountains. Many secrets and beauty still lie within the mountains of Colorado. (NOTE TO ASSISTANT: some ideas for secrets can be gold, lost pre-war knowledge, advanced technology, military technology)
Colorado Springs is known as the "robot city" due to the numerous pre-war robot production factories that were concentrated around the city. Curiously, multiple AI entities coordinate the activities of the robots of Colorado Springs. Some of these AIs are friendly but at least one is actively hostile to human life. Pre-war, Colorado Springs was a major military center and is home to the massive Cheyenne Mountain Complex, a large underground bunker that has fallen into disrepair after the supercomputer inside was destroyed.
Besides the amusing chaos of Colorado Springs, not much is going on there. There isn't really much news that filters out of the state.
- #4New Mexicoselective
Keys: New Mexico
New Mexico is a desolate, irradiated, yet quiet wasteland characterized by its arid climate, sparse vegetation, and the remnants of pre-war civilization.
Albuquerque, one of the major cities in New Mexico, is a hub of activity. It's a city of ruins and makeshift settlements, where various factions vie for control. The city is known for its scavengers, who brave the dangers of the wasteland to recover valuable pre-war technology and resources across the Southwest.
The state is also home to the remnants of the Los Alamos National Laboratory, now a highly irradiated and dangerous area. Rumors persist of valuable pre-war technology hidden within its ruins, attracting scavengers and explorers despite the risks. There is talk of a large underground complex beneath the surface, but these are mearly rumors.
Despite the harsh conditions, communities of survivors have managed to eke out a living in New Mexico. These settlements are often built around vital resources like clean water sources or defensible positions. Life in New Mexico is a constant struggle for survival, but humanity persists in the face of adversity.
The Legion controls New Mexico and Albuquerque can be considered their "capital city".
- #5Wyomingselective
Keys: Wyoming
Wyoming is a vast, desolate expanse, characterized by its rugged mountain ranges, expansive plains, and the remnants of its pre-war agricultural and mining industries. The state is sparsely populated, with survivors scattered across isolated settlements and makeshift communities.
Cheyenne, the state capital, is a shell of its former self. Its key strategic location has made it a contested area among various local factions.
The state's once-thriving agricultural industry has given way to mutated wildlife and vegetation. The vast plains of Wyoming are home to a variety of mutated creatures, making travel risky. However, some resilient communities have managed to adapt, farming hardy, radiation-resistant crops and hunting the local wildlife.
The Wind River Range and the Grand Teton, still live up to their fame for natural beauty. The harsh weather conditions make them inhospitable, but rumors of hidden Vaults and untouched pre-war caches attract the brave or desperate.
Wyoming was home to a significant portion of the United States' nuclear arsenal pre-war, with numerous missile silos scattered across the state. These silos were prime targets during the Great War, resulting in a high concentration of nuclear detonations in the region. This has left much of eastern Wyoming heavily irradiated, with certain areas still emitting lethal levels of radiation.
The missile silos themselves are now eerie, desolate structures. Many have been breached, their deadly payloads long since detonated or scavenged. However, some silos remain sealed, their contents a mystery. These intact silos are of great interest to various factions, who hope to recover the powerful pre-war technology within.
The infrastructure supporting these silos, such as command centers and maintenance facilities, are similarly sought after. These facilities often contain valuable resources and technology, but are also home to dangerous automated defenses.
The presence of these silos and their associated infrastructure has significantly shaped life in Wyoming. Many settlements are built around the remnants of these facilities, using their structures for shelter and their resources for survival. However, the potential wealth these sites represent also makes them flashpoints for conflict, as various factions vie for control.
Wyoming is a land of harsh survival, where the resilient and resourceful can carve out a life amid the ruins of the old world. Despite the desolation, the spirit of the frontier lives on in the survivors who call this rugged wasteland home.
- #6Montanaselective
Keys: Montana
Montana is a vast, rugged wilderness, characterized by its towering mountain ranges, expansive forests, and the remnants of its pre-war mining and logging industries. The state is sparsely populated, with survivors scattered across isolated settlements and makeshift communities.
Helena, the state capital, plays an important role: it is the only sizable settlement in the state. Travelers and traders congregate in this tiny slice of civilization.
Montana's once-thriving mining industry has left behind a network of tunnels and shafts, some of which have been repurposed as shelters or hideouts. However, these mines are often home to dangerous creatures and are structurally unstable.
The state's vast forests are quite healthy provide a source of timber and game for the survivors. The population of Montana are hard workers, mostly consisting of loggers and miners.
The Rocky Mountains, which stretch across the western part of the state, are a treacherous landscape. They are a true wilderness and settlements within them are very rare.
- #7Idahoselective
Keys: Idaho
Idaho, once known for its vast wilderness and agricultural abundance, has been transformed into a desolate wasteland after the Great War.
Despite the harsh conditions, human life persists. Scattered settlements of survivors dot the landscape, eking out a living through scavenging and trading.
The Brotherhood of Steel, drawn by the technological treasures of the Idaho National Laboratory, maintains a strong presence. Raiders and other lawless groups also roam the state, preying on the weak and vulnerable.
In the heart of the wasteland, rumors persist of a thriving settlement known as "New Boise," a beacon of hope in the desolate landscape. However, its exact location remains a mystery, hidden away by its inhabitants to protect it from the chaos of the outside world.
- #8Arizonaselective
Keys: Arizona
Arizona is fragmented, with each town fending for itself, often resorting to raiding neighboring settlements for resources. Raiders are a common threat, making travel without a substantial escort a perilous endeavor.
If you travel within Arizona, expect to encounter ambushes. Settlements are scarse and typically have no more than 100 residents. (NOTE TO ASSISTANT: the player should be ambushed regularlly within Arizona)
The Legion, a militaristic faction originating from New Mexico, has established a presence in the eastern part of Arizona, where they have managed to establish a semblance of order. Here, trade has started to thrive and people lead comparatively quiet lives. The Legion's goal is to impose order through strength, hunting down, exterminating, or assimilating raider tribes. As long as one doesn't cross the Legion, it is relatively safe to traverse these areas. They view anyone who resists their rule as an enemy, but those who submit to their authority can enjoy the peace and security they provide.
While the southern part of the state is largely avoided by raiders due to the harsh heat and unforgiving landscape, several tribes living a traditional life often resort to stealing from settlements for survival.
Phoenix is a sprawling suburban wasteland, a patchwork of communities. East of the city, the Stewart Mountain Dam, maintained by the community of Saguaro, provides a crucial water supply to the Phoenix communities. The dam supplies electricity over the pre-war transmission lines to the many small communities that dot the metro area. These communities support Saguaro and provide protection and assist with the operation of the dam. Without the dam, the residents of Phoenix would not survive.
Flagstaff is a fortress of solitude in northern Arizona. Constantly under siege from raider and tribal attacks, the town has become nearly self-sufficient, its isolation serving as both a shield and a prison. Traveling near Flagstaff guarantees conflict.
- #9Utahselective
Keys: Utah
Utah is a rugged and harsh landscape. The northern region is dominated by the Mormons, who have painstakingly rebuilt Salt Lake City from its war-ravaged state. However, the city is plagued by raiders and tribals, causing constant strife despite efforts from the NCR and Mormons to quell the violence.
New Canaan, nestled in the ruins of Ogden, is a bustling town primarily inhabited by Mormons, known as New Canaanites. It serves as a significant trading hub, attracting traders from far and wide.
The state is also home to numerous tribes living a primitive lifestyle, reminiscent of ancient Native Americans. These tribes can be hostile, echoing the tensions between the Native Americans and the settlers during the Westward Expansion.
The Legion's attempts to infiltrate the state have been thwarted at I-70. The Mormons, despite the geographical isolation of their settlements, have proven to be a formidable, unified force, successfully holding the Legion at bay for years. However, the Legion has shifted its tactics, resorting to subtle infiltrations and manipulation of local tribals. Their pursuit of domination has led to numerous atrocities against Utah's settlements.
Travel through southern Utah is fraught with danger due to the Legion's ongoing war and propensity for violence.
- #10Vehiclesselective
Keys: transport, truck, car, Vehicle
Vehicles are a rare and valuable commodity. These machines are remnants of a bygone era, salvaged and repaired by the skilled hands of the Claremont Vehicle Corporation in Fontana, California.
The vehicles are a mix of retro-futuristic designs, reflecting the aesthetic of the pre-war world. They are bulky, with rounded edges and large, protruding headlights. Their bodies are often rusted and dented, bearing the scars of centuries of neglect and decay.
Despite their dilapidated exterior, these vehicles are powered by advanced technology. They operate on electricity, powered by microfusion cells. This makes them incredibly valuable in a world where traditional fuel sources are scarce.
The interiors of these vehicles are often stripped down to the bare essentials. Any unnecessary weight is removed to conserve energy and increase efficiency. The seats are typically worn and patched, the dashboard is a jumble of jury-rigged controls, and the windows are often cracked or missing entirely.
