The Explorers from Vault 41, and their quest

Fallout: The Roleplaying Game | Campaign

About the adventure

Step into the post-apocalyptic wasteland of Texas in the year 2284—a landscape where the dust of a bygone era echoes through rusted metal and shattered dreams of a world forever changed. By the time of 2284, it's a time when most of the vaults have already succumbed to ruin or abandonment; only Vault 41 remained sealed and full of life. Hidden beneath the decaying shell of a former FEMA research base near Dallas, this long-forgotten stronghold of the Enclave was designed to shelter thousands from the coming storm. But as the time went on, the aging hydroponic grow systems started to falter. Now, as the desperation for food and a need for supplies force the inhabitants to confront the harsh reality, survival demands venturing outside the vault, where the Enclave might be, and mystery lurks. This game casts you as one of the brave explorers from Vault 41 tasked with scouring the ravaged Northside of Texas.

Had a great time playing with this GM. Very creative and on top of any curve balls you can throw at em. Focuses on making sure everyone is having fun and setting the scene of the story.

I could not even get through character creation with this GM. Would accuse you of interrupting when you keep talking when then interject. Does not know the creation rules then gets confused an angry when they don't understand simple questions then gas lights you when you show there where it is explained and move the goal post.

Had a lot of fun and felt very welcome as a new addition to the campaign. And was super helpful and patient with me being new to the game and learning.

How to prepare

Alright, as I have said a number of times, I use my Discord server for the voice chat of the campaign, so you will need a mic, a Discord account, and you will need to join the server. here is the invite to the server https://discord.gg/dSFUd6eb7N and if you need a Discord account, https://discord.com/ You will need to download and install Fantasy Grounds to do this; you will need a "free" account to join me. Here is the link to that. https://www.fantasygrounds.com/ You need, Internet, microphone, Fantasy Grounds account and program, discord account and have joined the discord server

What I provide

Fantasy Grounds Licenses: Meaning you only need a "free" Fantasy Grounds account. I also have my own Discord server I use for the voice chat of the session.

Gameplay details

Here is a Link to the Monte Cook RPG Consent Checklist: https://mcpl.info/sites/default/files/images/consent-in-gaming-form-fillable-checklist-2019-09-13.pdf As far as how each gets used, I use the checklist as a guide I try my best to be considerate of very heavy topics like "rap" and "child abuse." Session Zero I mainly use it for you all to finish your characters and meet the ones that are not wanting a "special intro." I also use it to set the main quest if you're given one to start the campaign. You can ask me at any time, so long as we did not just start, if we can take a break; otherwise, I'll forget to take one myself. If you need to just go AFK to do something like fill a cup, grab a snack, or go to the bathroom, just say, "You'll be right back." Aftercare I have my own Discord server that has a channel for the games. If you want to talk about something that had or was or is bothing you with the group or talk about Build's or other game stuff, you can also message my Discord whenever I am online. X, N, and O Cards this is my first time using them, but Simply, I know both old and new fallout I know how dark and creepy it can get so If its's bothering you, you can tell me by playing the card directly on Fantasy Grounds.

How will character creation work

You and I will sit in a Discord call and roll up your character. This is done in the Discord server so that other players may join. If it's your first time making a character, I can help you make the character from the ground up or even give you a couple of prebuilt ones if you want.
