Are the Sorrows the Iron Lines?

Post » Thu Apr 07, 2011 9:27 pm

Just a thought. Remember the http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Iron_Lines from Van Buren? Nomadic tribals, who, among other things, decorate their bodies with parallel lines.

Now, check out the so-called http://images.wikia.com/fallout/images/2/20/Vlcsnap-2011-05-11-16h57m09s224.png. See those lines on their bodies? They're not perfectly parallel of course, but that could simply be the fault of the art department wanting to give them some more flair.

Anyhoo, I say "so-called Sorrows" because, to be perfectly frank, we don't know for sure that "Sorrows" is actually the name of the tribe. It could, as far as we know, simply be the name of a specific tribal.

But, odds are the tribe IS called the Sorrows.

If that's the case, could we be looking at the same tribe, simply re-named and given a new home? It wouldn't be the first time Van Buren content has been repurposed to fit into Fallout 3 or New Vegas.

You guys really studied your fallout lore very well. Did I miss something,they must have one huge [censored] design doc full of concepts. It can fill an entire AAA game and still have more to discover. Where does the freaking wiki get this information.

At some point Interplay or someone released the design docs for the fans: http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Van_Buren_design_documents#Van_Buren
