About the adventure

A string of grisly murders and high profile thefts shake up the Commonwealth. Coupled with that is the start of one of the harshest winters the Commonwealth has ever seen. The NCR, Brotherhood of Steel, Followers of the Apocalypse, Regulators, Gun Runners, Crimson Caravan Co, Van Graffs, Khans, several raider gangs, and even the local Vault Dwellers have to cohabitate in order to survive the deadly freeze. With a (very tenuous) truce, most factions have come together against the cold, and a mysterious faction from the west, known only as the Children of Atom, has grown exponentially since the Cold Snap began. Which faction do YOU hail from? Do you walk the Wastes as a (wo)man, machine, super mutant, or ghoul? What are you willing to do to survive? And how much are you prepared to sacrifice to save your patch of dirt? Your mettle WILL be tested in "Fallout : Wacky Winter Wasteland"!

About me

Greetings and well met, fearless traveler! From the dark caves of the Sword Coast, to the shimmering shores of Otari; from the depths of cyberpunk dystopia, to a Galaxy Far Far Away, I've been the companion of countless adventurers on their journey to greatness! My campaigns continue to thrill players in game stores, online via VTT, and even within the confines of their own living rooms. All walks of life can safely come together at my games and forget the real world for a few hours. TTRPGs are about hanging out and having collaborative fun; that's exactly what you'll find us doing at my table. Come prepared for one of the most dynamic, interactive roleplay experiences you've ever had! You WILL have a large hand at creating the narrative, with freedom to build and play the character you always wished you could! WHY HIRE ME?: Family Discounts!!! - I'm a family man, so I know it can be hard to separate personal time from family time, but with my family discount you no longer have to! ENOURMOUS Library - I'm truly a GAME master, fluent in over a dozen different systems including: DND 5e, Pathfinder 2e, Call of Cthulu, Cyberpunk RED, Dungeon Crawl Classics, Classic Traveller, Fallout the RPG, The Dishonored RPG, The Dresden Files RPG, Ironsworn, and the list just keeps going! Shoot me a message to inquire about a game I haven't listed. Full Immersion - My worlds are complete sandboxes that you can live in, potentially for years. There are endless possibilities during a campaign, and even once you've beaten it, you may continue questing in that same world, dealing with the consequences of the previous campaign! Solo and Duo Mode! - Have you ever wanted to TRULY be the main character? To play in a story fully centered on YOU? At MOST tables, your character will be just one of 4-6 other powerful heroes, but in single player or two-player mode, it's only YOU and your choices that decide the outcomes. You have my FULL attention as the game master, allowing me to tailor-make your experience, but you also get to play a much more powerful character than typical. If you want to feel as immersed as possible, then hop in solo or with a friend, and see what unfolds! Youtuber - Subscribers to my Youtube channel, "Encounter - Mastering Dungeons", receive a discount, so come check out the channel! Tucsonan - I live in the Tucson area, and am frequently found at the Isle of Games, where I run live games OFTEN!

Character creation

Creating your character

We will do character creation together during the first session. I will provide the necessary handouts and character sheets too. Right after we finish making characters, the mission starts. **Any player(s) joining AFTER the first session must come with a character made already, or plug & play as one of the default pre-generated characters. I offer Lucy MacLean, Maximus, and The Ghoul as pre-generated characters.

What to expect

Preparing for the session

LIVE PLAY MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS •2d20s and 3d6s RECOMMENDED / OPTIONAL •The Fallout RPG core rule book •5d20s and 6d6s •pencil, eraser, & scrap paper •calculator •device with access to Discord •character Props / hats ā˜…WATER (stay hydrated!) & snacksā˜… OR VTT MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS: •Make a free Roll20.net account (link for game will be sent prior to session). •Make a free Discord account (link for server will be sent prior to session, game info will be posted there). •Microphone required. (I suggest testing the connection through the settings in discord prior to the game. We will use push to talk to avoid talking over one another and eliminate background noise). •A solid internet connection (will make your gaming experience much more enjoyable). •A webcam is strongly recommended, but is not a requirement. (Sometimes its hard to "read the room" as a GM if we can't see facial expressions/cues, but some people don't like to be on camera and that's totally fine.)

What Malcolm The Brewmaster brings to the table

If you're part of the VTT, I will provide everything digitally. If you're part of my live game, then this game is being held at the Isle of Games game store in Tucson, Arizona. I will provide almost everything needed for game night, including handouts and pregen character sheets. You must provide your own dice!!
