Description I know, I know, Cywren's adventure just started a few days ago, but that just means more time to get aquainted with these guys. You guys seemed ok when I brought in Gaelan and Jessica brought in Areum and so on and so forth, I figured, "Hey. Why not continue the lore immediately?" And there's no time like the present.

The girl on the left is Amber Mason: A 20 year old girl who's tough, brave, gung-ho and energetic, posessing a childlike outlook on things. She's originally from Vault 719 in the East Bay Wasteland, but she travelled to the Capital Wasteland with her boyfriend (I'll get into detail with him later). Not much to say about her looks, cuz it's pretty much finalized.

The guy on the right is only known as "Sev": He's 20 like Amber is and is her boyfriend. He also came from Vault 719, but unlike Amber, he's more quiet, brooding, timid and grim even. The reason is because he suffers from Posttraumatic Stress Disorder. He was there when California was nuked and the whole ordeal was scarring to say the least. Both emotionally and physically. The left side of his body has been scarred with chemical burns, which is why he wears his Pip-Boy on his right arm. He chooses the alias "Sev" deriving from his Vault of origin, because he's not really comfortable giving out his real name to anyone, but Amber. That said, when they are together, Amber is the voice between the two, because of Sev's PTSD. But there's a problem at the moment... Oh and Sev's looks are not final, so they maybe subject to change.

________________

Sev and Amber are two lovers who agreed to meet up in the Capital Wasteland (Fallout 3's setting) and hopefully flee to Europe and lie low until the whole Apocalypse thing is over, they managed to reach the Capital Wasteland, but got separated in doing so. Being faithful to each other, both Amber and Sev refuse to leave the mainland until they are reunited. So they do their best at trying to find each other, leaving behind audio logs in hopes the other finds it, sending radio transmissions to get their message to a wider audience etc etc. Amber is an independent girl, so she's fine, other than the fact Sev's gone missing. However, this is a first for Sev. To survive in the Wasteland, he needs to learn to speak up for himself, gain confidence and hopefully overcome his PTSD someday.

Oh and while these two exist in Cywren's world and are in the same location she is in, this side story has no connection to Cywren's story so far. That's where you and Jordan come in.

There is no "set lore" for Amber and Sev, besides the basic details I provided, which means I'm not going to be as strict as I was with Gaelan. You can do whatever you want with these two characters, whether it be making a complex shipping between the two, simply writing journals of their adventures in the Wasteland, drawings, anything really. As long as it's within reason. The goal in mind was "Blank, moldable characters, anyone can relate to."

I know this is early, but this is just something to make the whole "character building process" more interactive as well to help us ease into the story of Fallout, giving other perspectives besides just Cywren's.

Oh well, that's it! More will come eventually, but I hope you accept these two as you have Gaelan.

I don't care if it's not true, I still believe it. Amber is probably Sophie/Vahl's Great great great great great granddaughter or something. Omg yes.

That's the glory of it, if you want to think that Amber is Sophie's descendent, then so she is haha.

Well, if I ever get into Fallout modding, and we actually end up getting one of your characters into the game, just call me up, haha.

If you could actually make Amber or Sev as legit followers so at least one of them can have a part in Cywren's story, that's be amazing lol

I can see about working on it for ya then! Of course, I'll have to learn Fallout modding, which will suck and I hope it's similar to Skyrim modding, and I'll have to get all the bits and bops about them from you. Maybe a summer project, since I need to focus on school these days, haha. But yus, I must do it! It would be awesome to have fan-made characters in the group!

Good, but remember though, it's either one or the other. Not both, cuz they're separate and all.

Β  I thought you said you knew nothing of Fallout... This is more detailed than the actual quests from the game! LOL I never should have let you talk me into believing you weren't the Loremaster of everything. LOL This is really really cool! I love how you built them, and Amber already has the makings of a total boss! Love her design! And Sev being the quiet, stern, and grim but lovable one of the couple is cool!Β XD They kinda remind me of Derek and Kyle Reese from Terminator in a way. And I love how you've left it open for the fans to build off of. XD

I still can't believe you've already managed to build aΒ cohesive backstory for a universe you just found out about... wha?? LOL

Haha really? This little story is more detailed than the ingame quests? I should become like a Writer for a video game story or something lol. But I'm really not that good with Fallout Lore, all I know is it's a post-apocalyptic game because China nuked America or something... Anyway, I knew you'd like Amber, she seems to be your type of character haha. Tough, headstrong female character? Reminds me of a certain Dunmer... Too soon? But yea Sev's his little, quiet self all lost and alone without his Amber to keep him company. Oh I can imagine the shipping art.

And thought I'd let others get a say in their story, seeing as for the most part, I had the final day in EVERYTHING Gaelan did lol. But to be honest, I watched my sister play Fallout, so I had a little knowledge of the universe.
