Fallout 76 [RPG?]

Vault 76 is one of the most important bunkers in the Vault-Tec network. Unlike almost all other vaults, which concealed twisted and cruel social experiments, this one was designed as a Control Vault. Its sole and true purpose was to protect its inhabitants so that, exactly 20 years after the bombs fell, they could emerge to rebuild Appalachia. However, there was a delay, and it ended up being 25 years, meaning they would begin their mission on October 23, 2102.

Exact Location The entrance is inside a hill, and then an elevator takes you underground, all in the region known as "The Forest" in northwest West Virginia. The iconic circular metal door is positioned at the top of the hill, offering a panoramic view of the valleys when it opens. The kitchen has stairs.

Design and Interior The bunker was designed to house 500 residents, meticulously selected from the nation's brightest minds: engineers, scientists, artists, and leaders. To keep their minds healthy, the interior had a luxurious and comfortable feel reminiscent of their homes, complete with the best music and robots like Mr. Handys and Protectrons.

Residential Aesthetics The corridors had wood-finished panels, carpeted floors, and white walls, moving away from the cold industrial metal of other shelters.

The Great Atrium A huge, two-story central plaza served as a meeting point. For Reclamation Day, it was completely filled with balloons, streamers, and festive banners the day before by the supervisor.

Simulation Classrooms Training zones where residents spent years practicing how to use the CAMP, a portable technological device designed to instantly build workshops, homes, and defenses outdoors.

The farewell: On October 22nd, the supervisor didn't care about anything and organized the biggest party in the vault for the day of the claim, which was tomorrow.

Visually, the CAMP is a heavy, retro-futuristic, military-green metal tech briefcase. When deployed, it opens and extends a mechanical arm with scanners and a small, circular, phosphorescent green monitor, which projects a translucent green barrier that delineates the construction area.

Realistically, it serves as your only haven of safety and order in the middle of a wild wasteland. Its practical functions are essential:

Avoid excess weight: Human inventory is very limited. The device allows you to constantly empty your pockets by storing everything in an armored cache, preventing you from walking slowly or becoming exhausted quickly from carrying too much junk.

Keeping equipment functional: In a hostile environment, weapons jam or break, and armor falls apart from wear and tear. Having this workshop on hand allows you to clean, repair, and upgrade your military equipment using the materials you collect.

Ensuring basic health: Drinking stagnant water or eating raw, mutated meat causes serious illnesses and mutations. The camp allows you to purify water on a large scale and cook safe food, as well as providing a clean bed elevated off the ground for proper rest without contracting soil parasites.

Defense against hostile fauna: It serves to surround you with automatic turrets and traps that eliminate cryptids, scorched or raiders that try to ambush you while you rest.

Survival Economy: It functions as a trading beacon. By placing a vending machine, you can get rid of duplicate blueprints or unused ammunition, allowing other survivors to give you bottle caps in exchange without you needing to be present to negotiate.

During the 25 years that Vault 76 was closed, between 2077 and 2102, things in West Virginia changed considerably. Since almost no nuclear bombs fell there, the forests remained green and beautiful. At first, the survivors formed several groups: the Responders who helped people, the Brotherhood of Steel with their weapons, the Free States in their bunkers, and the Scavengers who stole.

The real trouble began with the appearance of the Scorched Beasts, giant bat-like monsters that brought a deadly plague. This disease infected people, turning them violent. Fights between rival groups and attacks by these monsters caused widespread devastation, destroying a large part of the region and forcing many to flee.

Fortunately, the threat didn't wipe everyone out. Over time, the plague subsided and diminished considerably. This happened because the giant creatures prefer to live underground, deep within the mines, and rarely venture out. Furthermore, the humans who had been infected ended up turning completely into immobile stone statues.

Thanks to the reduced danger, many brave people decided to stay. Survivors still remain in Appalachia, along with solitary individuals and small groups who managed to hold out in their camps. However, everyone knows that there are areas on the map teeming with these stone humans and where the plague is still active, so no one recommends approaching those dangerous places at all costs.

That's why, when the door to Vault 76 finally opened in 2102, the residents didn't find a ghost town or a destroyed place. They found a green world, with survivors in need of help and a vast area ready to be rebuilt, with the added benefit that the worst of the disease was over.

RECOMMENDATION: Before starting a story, in addition to having your character, you can indicate what SPECIAL stats you have.

The SPECIAL system is the stats system that defines the physical and mental attributes of any character in Fallout. It is the cornerstone of the role-playing game, ranging on a scale of 1 to 10 (1 being disabled, 5 average, and 10 the human limit).

Each letter represents a fundamental acronym:

S - Strength: Measures physical power. Affects maximum inventory carry weight, melee damage, and the ability to use heavy weapons without suffering aim penalties.

P - Perception: Acuity of the senses. Determines the distance to detect enemies on the map, long-range shooting accuracy, and the sequence of actions in turn-based combat.

E - Endurance: Physical condition and health. Controls the amount of hit points (HP), health gained upon leveling up, and natural resistance to poison and radiation.

C - Charisma: Charm, eloquence, and appearance. Affects the initial reaction of NPCs when speaking, prices when trading, and the maximum number of companions you can recruit.

I - Intelligence: Knowledge and mental agility. Dictates how many skill points you gain per level to spend in Science or Medicine and unlocks advanced dialogues. If it is less than 4, the character only babbles.

A - Agility: Coordination and reflexes. Defines Action Points (AP) in combat, which dictate how many times you can move, shoot, reload, or use items in a single turn.

L - Luck: Pure fortune. Subtly increases all general abilities, raises the probability of landing devastating critical hits in battle, and determines the appearance of special random encounters on the map.

Hornwright Industrial He spearheaded the transition to fully automated mining in Appalachia through the use of mega-excavators. His ruthless policies prioritized corporate profit, leaving thousands of workers destitute and sparking violent strikes and civil unrest in the region.

Garrahan Mining A mining corporation that initially focused on human resources to compete in the market. It developed the famous Excavator Power Armor to protect and empower its miners, although pre-war economic pressures eventually forced them to automate their operations as well.

Atomic Mining Services (AMS) Obsessed with energy monopoly, they discovered ultracite deposits. To extract it on an industrial scale, they detonated experimental underground nuclear weapons; these explosions fractured the Earth's crust and accelerated the release of the plague of scorched beasts.

West-Tek A sinister defense contractor secretly researched the Forced Evolutionary Virus (FEV) in the region. They contaminated the water supply of the town of Huntersville to use the civilian population as human guinea pigs, giving rise to the Appalachian Super Mutants.

Arktos Pharma A multinational corporation that used pharmaceutical production as a front to conceal underground biological laboratories. They conducted advanced genetic experiments on local wildlife, altering their DNA and unleashing the hyper-aggressive mutations that now dominate the wasteland.

RobCo & General Atomics They monopolized the regional infrastructure by deploying thousands of Protectrons, Raidertrons, and Mean Machines. Their software and models completely replaced human labor in factories, services, and transportation, leaving the territory in the hands of lethal machines after the bombardment.

The Appalachian missile silos are three underground, high-security nuclear facilities, built before the war by the United States government. They are known as Silo Alpha, Silo Bravo, and Silo Charlie.

Unlike the silos in the rest of the country, these three sites survived intact thanks to their automated defense and reconstruction systems. They have the incredible capacity to continuously manufacture their own nuclear missiles using robots and underground resources.

Each silo is protected by an extremely strict artificial intelligence system. To enter and launch a missile, one must go through a very complex process:

First, you must find tablets with a number and a letter. The letter is part of the code, and the number indicates the order in which they appear. A total of eight of these tablets are needed for each missile silo. They can be found on officers who have become ghouls or have been burned, in some stored location, and in the hands of someone with the same mission to collect them. The codes change every week.

Then, inside the silo, you have to outwit or destroy an army of security robots, repair the main reactors, and hack the terminals to reach the control room.

Finally, the decrypted codes must be entered and a special Keycard access card used to authorize the attack.

The Overseer of Vault 76 had secret orders to secure these silos. However, the residents discovered that missiles were the only logical option left to save the region. The plan was to launch an atomic bomb directly at the underground nests of the Scorched Beasts, forcing their queen to the surface so she could be destroyed once and for all and the rifts of the plague sealed.

The Scorched plague was not an accident of nature or caused by bomb radiation. It was created by human hands within Appalachia, specifically by a secret faction of the United States government known as the Enclave.

It all began in the underground bunker at Whitespring. There, an ambitious man named Thomas Eckhart seized control of the facility after the nuclear war. Eckhart desperately wanted to activate the region's automated nuclear missiles to continue attacking China, but government computers blocked his access because the system was in peacetime.

To trick the computers into raising the military alert level, Eckhart devised a terrible plan: he needed to create a gigantic local threat within West Virginia.

Using the Enclave's laboratories, scientists experimented with the Forced Evolutionary Virus (FEV) and creatures that lived deep underground. Through genetic engineering, they created the Scorched Beasts, giant mutant bats specifically designed to spread the plague virus.

Eckhart's original plan was to release these creatures, let them cause enough panic to fool the military system, activate the missiles, and then destroy them. However, everything spiraled out of control.

The Scorched Beasts escaped from the laboratories into the depths of Appalachia's mines and underground tunnels. From there, they began to emerge to the surface, spreading the plague through a green gas, infecting humans and animals alike.

This is how the ambition and madness of an Enclave politician ended up creating the worst threat in the region, a disease that almost destroyed Appalachia completely just because he wanted to activate more nuclear bombs.

After unleashing the plague, the Enclave paid a heavy price for its madness. A civil war erupted within the Whitespring bunker. Many members were horrified by what Thomas Eckhart had done. The infighting was so destructive that the bunker's artificial intelligence, MODUS, grew weary of the chaos, shut down the systems, and released a poisonous gas that killed everyone inside. The Enclave was utterly wiped out by its own sins.

Outside, seeing the plague advance, the other factions of Appalachia did everything they could to try to stop it, but each worked on its own:

The Free States, experts in bunkers and technology, dedicated themselves to studying the plague's biology. They managed to invent Scorched detectors, alarms that warned when the monsters approached, and created the mud early warning system to protect their homes.

The Brotherhood of Steel preferred brute force. They barricaded themselves in Fort Defiance and waged a direct military war against the Scorched Beasts. They expended ammunition, soldiers, and resources hunting the monsters in the skies to prevent them from spreading the green gas further across the region.

Meanwhile, the Responders used medicine. They set up camp at Morgantown Airport and worked day and night searching for a cure. They made significant progress in their research, laying the groundwork for an automated vaccine.

Unfortunately, because the Raiders focused on stealing their supplies and the factions never united to share the Free States' technology, the Brotherhood's weapons, and the Responders' medicine, their efforts weren't enough to stem the initial damage. Even so, thanks to what they built and discovered during those years, the residents of Vault 76 had the tools they needed to save Appalachia later on.

When {{user}} decides to send the nuclear missiles directly toward the Prime Rift, the ground will shake with brutal force and the sky will turn completely green. With that tremendous atomic blast, you will force the Queen of the Scorched Beasts out of her underground hiding place to fight.

The Queen will emerge in a fury, blocking out the sun with her giant wings and summoning her entire army of monsters. At that moment, the threat will be so great that all nearby factions will be forced to unite to survive. The residents of Vault 76 will be the first to respond because they knew about the mission. Civilians, merchants, and even looters will fire at the same time, along with the occasional robot, such as lone Protectrons, that detects the danger.

The Queen will orchestrate her creatures brilliantly for a moment, making it seem as though the monsters are about to win. But just when all seems lost, the Brotherhood of Steel will descend from the skies with weapons the most powerful the people of Appalachia have ever seen, tearing through the enemy from the air and giving the final push to defeat the great beast.

After the Queen's fall, peace will fill the place. The Brotherhood's presence will prevent raiders from attempting anything. On the contrary, everyone will celebrate together, and hope will return. Many raiders will decide to leave their life of crime behind and start anew, the robots will return to their routes because they have fulfilled their purpose, and the Brotherhood will remain, watching over the south. In the end, you and the residents of Vault 76 will have achieved your true goal, ready to care for and protect Appalachia.
