About the adventure
This is a homebrew campaign utilizing XP to Level 3's (Jacob) Arcane Arcade Fallout System (may it get the blessing of Bethesda to become official!), set in 2291 (5 years before Season 1 of the Fallout TV show). You are Vault Dwellers in Vault 42, a control vault made in the early program to insure minimal bias from the Vault-Tec R&D crew, with a focus in agriculture and livestock. Due to this, your vault had 3 water chips- triple the production to insure enough access to water for some livestock, crops, and Vault Dwellers. The vault, luckily, was a stunning success. It lasted with little to no internal struggle, and after learning that the outside world was safe to explore, opened its doors in 2210. It was armed enough to deflect Raiders, and developed a small community outside its walls for trade and wanderers. Things were looking good.... until now. If a small fungal hit to crops wasn't bad enough- it turns out not 1, but 2 of the water chips are broken.... One water purifier is completely nonfunctional without a chip, and the other is a patch job that is on years of borrowed time. Venture across the wastes to Rustlanta, a city of intrigue, mystery, and an eldritch threat that seeks to cover the world in Green.

About me
Hey. Before I tell you who I am, take a deep breath. Just relax. It feels like everything you love has become homework, right? Half the people you know keep telling you to turn your hobbies, your passions, the things that keep you sane, into side hustles- whether or not you’re really ready to start your own business. The other half seem to obsess over their interests, arguing about minor plot points or design decisions for no reason (I’m unfortunately guilty of that sometimes) or gatekeeping their hobby as if more people won’t help their beloved IP spread and survive. What I’m providing here? Not like that. You want to be min-maxy and build the ultimate 5e 2Pally/Hexblade1/Whisper6? Sure! Want just a beer and pretzels game to have a good time and meet friends at? Awesome! Want to get engrossed in a conspiracy and roleplay every bit of political intrigue? I got you. The catch? We ALL agree on the nature of the game- not one of us, not three of us, not even just me, but EVERYONE. That’s how we have a great time together. I’ve spent a lot of GMing time teaching beginners how to play systems like D&D 5e, Pathfinder 2e, and even Ten Candles; but I’ve also spent time with experts (both as player and GM) who cut their teeth playing ttrpgs practically before I was born. So don’t sweat the heavy stuff. Take off your coat, leave your troubles at the door, and let’s have some fun. There’s got to be some place for us filthy casuals to play, right?

Creating your character
Character Creation will happen during session 0, (the first session we'll have, which will be free of charge). I'll provide all materials for character creation.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
I'll share the PDF with character information, but no worries if you don't get it immediately- everyone learns differently. You will need a Discord Account and a good microphone. I'll give you the link to access Foundry as a player.
What Ryan brings to the table
I provide funny voices, gripping drama, a rules-lawyer approach greatly enhanced by rule of cool (keep the spirit of the rules, not necessarily the writing- unless that's more kickass lol) Other than materials, I'm here to make sure you have fun! Let me know if anything is a problem or not working- I've got you.
