I'm always interested in how other people play and build their characters, what they look like, and what their backstories are. So for those of you who wish to share, what is your characters build, backstory and how you play them!

Dedreck Greene; wandering gunslinger with a silver tongue. Inspired by Roland from the Dark Tower series

Lately I've actually started to Roleplay and narrate my character.. Which is really unusal for me, But right now i'm roleplaying a farmer who set out as a courier to learn about other places.

After benny shot him in the head, He started to care more about himself more and less about others.. Which led him to raid Caravans.

I play only wearing the Caravaneer Outfit, And if I see Caravans, I shoot them and take whatever they have on them.

BUT, His Momma always said to be nice te' people.. People that do bad things, Tend to die in bad ways.. :shifty:

But someone actually said that to me in real life so.. Yeah.

Lmao, awesome XD.

I may or may not take that detail about knocking over caravans and such hehe.
I tend to play more think about myself first characters, but I want to make a character whose like that, takes what they need from people xD
But I want my "assassin" type character to put out hits and such. which I think will be fun, and I also want to narrate my character as well, unusual for me, but seems fun.

I made it that my guy is my same guy from Fo3 (its been 4 years, it could happen, lol) and I made sure to give him similar things and a good amount of caps (75k, ended up spending 25k then making 100k from casinos) since he was in rich in Fo3 after owning what was Tenpenny Tower. Sniper and Plasma Rifles mostly. Also going to take over the Mojave, but being good at the same time.

"Commodore" Jack Coonley: A pistol twirling, gun slinging mad man, who has a pension for scarring up woman folk and cheating at cards, hes backed up by his trusty com-padre Jericho/Raul. Looks kind of like Robert Mitchum

Richard "dike" Mantis: My quintessential noir alcohol driven private eye. He looks like Sterling Hayden

"Old Bone Tooth": The wily hermit prospector-esque survivalist. Looks like Lee Marvin in Paint Your Wagon

Xarnac The Conqueror AKA "The Scourge of Betelguese": My titular character is inspired by an alien Orson Welles with an orange tan (Since hes from the Betelguese System) and a blue pompadour.

Dr. Strangeglove: An eccentric scientist who strives for results, foregoing ethics and danger in the process. A neo-noir Frankenstein? Looks like Vincent Price

Edgar Lumis: A drug addicted thieving scumbag, who's only motivation is a quick fix. His demeanor gets him into lots of trouble that his quick tongue gets him out of. He would be more dangerous if he wasn't such a coward. looks like Peter Lorre (A F3 carry over, just started him)

Belphegor Doom-bringer; barbaric, psychotic, raider, thinks hes Pope Leo the II. Resembles Lord Vigo from Ghostbuster 2

Lt. Ranger William "Hud" Hudson; basically Hudson from Aliens, if he would of made lieutenant. Yes, you guessed correctly, he looks like Bill Paxton

Vorukhee was intended for my 'kill everything' playthrough, but as time progress I start to grow on him.....he was suppose to kill everyone once he realize human is a easy food source, but then his character take a 90 degree turn once he met Vulpes, believe he should purge the wasteland with his machete (and sometime his own hands with enhancement gloves).

My characters name is Locksley. He prefers to snipe targets from as far away as possible, but if things get close quarters he's rather handy with a pistol.
His life mission is to eradicate all ne'er do wells from the Mojave Wasteland. Given those characteristics he became close friends with Boone.
They've learned to work well together as a sniper team both using Anti-Material rifles and wearing their NCR ranger combat armor. (cover of the game)

I don't really delve much farther that that into the psyche or backstory of my characters.

my character is going to be a ranged gunman. His priority weapon's are rifles, and specifically, sniper rifles (assuming I ever find them). He will be judge, jury, and executioner. When his breath stops, his barrel steadies, and the blast following echo's, he who has been sentenced, will have been punished. For close quarters, he will try to stick with using knifes or other bladed weaponry. However, he will be no stranger to the 10mm pistol if it comes to it.

His life as a courier was only temporary, he had taken out the job to save money. Him and his love were to be married later that year, however things went awry. After ending up in good springs, he headed back home, to find his wife had been murdered, blood sprayed all across the walls. He knew who did it, and he know he needed revenge. As a man who'd lost everything, he's set out in search for the man, the man he knows only by the checkered suit he wore. Discarding all values, morals and pleasantries, he takes what he needs to survive, he kills those who stands in his way, he trusts no one, and allies with no one.

I don't know what my SPECIALS will be, and my three skills will be Guns, Sneak and something else. Not sure which.

Just like me.

Am about 20 hours into one of my most detailed characters.

Tank Thompson is an expert in repairing and modifying guns. He is working for the caravan companies and
My character doesnt really remember much prior to being shot in the head but at this moment he believes he took the job because he wanted to get into the caravan business. However the truth is that he's an alcoholic and chem addict who was on a bender when he killed the courier carrying the platinum chip. I sort of fill in my back story as I go along. He was given the name Tank Thompson by his father, a sergeant in the NCR back in California.The only thing his father ever taught him was how to maintain a guns condition and how to attack with melee weapons. His father was an abusive drunk and accidentally killed Tank's mother when he beat her one night, the NCR covered it up and blamed it on Raiders. I am roleplaying that Tank doesnt remember much of this. He was tricked into siding with the Powder Gangers in Goodsprings and after realizing they had killed innocents he went into a rage and found himself addicted to chems once more. He wandered out into the wastes killing travelers for caps and for food before finding Harpers Shack. This idyllic shack has everything he needs in a home, however it is under siege from Deathclaws and Viper's. He now has a vendetta out against both parties.Recently he was traveling along the interstate, alone, depressed and broke when he met Veronica. She helped him sober up and they are trying to work for the caravan companies to earn enough caps to get into the Strip and finally get some answers from Benny.

What I like about this RP is it makes little things in the game more enjoyable. Like whenever I find chems i go and sell them to the Fiend leader at Vault 3. When i find an item that one might need at a home i can put it in a special place awaiting the time i can go back to the shack. Also it gives me leeway in how i continue on the MQ and which companions I use.

Im hoping this time around this one worksout.
But I was hoping I could find my build around somewhere, like a tried and true one lol

Rochester Smochester
He is 98 years old, smart as a ZAX, sharp as a Deathclaw, fast as a stump, and as strong as a sun-dried tomato. Uses EW, conventional weapons have to much recoil for his old bones, and is very tech-savvy. Small Framed and Good Natured, he tends to work smarter, not exceedingly dangerously. He is good at talking the talk, and he knows his way around a workbench. He was once a action space-shimp fisherman, "Rochester Smochester, at your serv-- Where are my pants!?"

I always have my Str at 6, And have my AG at 6, INT at 7.

The rest varies, And it usually works out.

Well from what I am told, I need strength to even hold a sniper rifle steady

Felicia is black. She was a tribal to ceasar's legion took her tribe. Because she is such a nice sweet person, she became the model for all the slave women to follow. Lanius took a liking to her and she became one of his girls where he tortured her repeatedly. He killed any children they had together to keep her allegiance to him strong. One day while he was at war she hid in a caravan and escaped. She is an ncr supporter and although she hates the legion, she is still a warmhearted nice person. She does whatever she can to help anyone if they are a nice person. She is a melée, unarmed character. She does hallucinate slightly because of the emotional and mental torture so she has wild wasteland.

Can't remember her stats or anything.

Take Weapon Handling when you can if you do what I did then.

I was too lazy when I posted earlier, So.. Yeah.

This is my current character:


His name is Graham, He was a Farmer with his family, After years of working on a farm, He left when he was 21, He got a job as a Courier and made deliveries for a few weeks, When he got this Job, He was expecting it to be simple... But, It took a turn.. For the worst.

A few days after benny shot him in the head, He traveled the Mojave looking for clues, He started to care more about himself more and less about others.. Which led him to raid Caravans soon afterwards.
His Momma always said to be nice te' people.. People that do bad things, Tend to die in bad ways..

When I play as him, I usually have Cass as she seems like the Farmer/Rancher type. (A bit ironic seeing that her Caravan was raided, Heh.)

I play only wearing the Caravaneer Outfit, And if I see Caravans, I shoot them and take whatever they have on them, And usually set traps along the roads.
