Mod

hey! thanks for the invite: and yeah I'd be down to co-mod with you :)
and yesss I can bring angry girl over xd what did you have in mind?

Mod

topics are done! :DD
now i have to write all the descriptions

Mod

finished the western wastes, working on central - any ideas for topics? my brain is dying lmao

Mod

after i finish the central wastes i will have 36 more topics to name and describe

Mod

i'm going to cry lol

Mod

sorry I just got up kinda and got on here lol
Did you need help??

Mod

ooohh I like this!! Yeah that could work! I’I’ve just been trying to figure out if Caledonia would fit with the red rangers. Like it’s definitely possible, she’s definitely not a toxin, that’s too much. So maybe red rangers and yeah if so, that could work! Unless she eventually joins the red rangers as a spy for another group but still falls in love with your spy and then drama but I gotta figure that out

okay SO i have this superspy girl for the red rangers. perhaps she notices caledonia and sort of scouts her out as a pote..."

wait wait wait WHAT IF- she was raised as a toxin agent but realized “hey fuck this actually” a few years ago and left and now they’re hunting her down because toxin doesn’t like abandoners
it could fit with her backstory, plus the idea that literally anyone could be a toxin spy could contribute to her trust issues

Mod

okay! Yeah I’ll look through what you have and see if there’s anything that could be an interesting idea of a place to add!

Mod

WAIT I LOVE THAT
OKAY YES THIS WORKS
And then I’m thinking maybe one of her parents or both like….are very into toxin too so that doesn’t help at all, and she left because she doesn’t agree with toxin and because she and one of her parents just never got along or something

Mod

:DDDDDD
also if you want to know what kind of person my spy girl is gonna be, she's very heavily inspired by deacon from fallout 4

Mod

what if somewhere (probably eastern) there was like an abandoned school or something? I feel like that could be creepy in a sense and maybe filled with monsters of sorts or like, ghosts or something

Mod

ooooooooh definitely
like an old high school

Mod

Oh shoot I didn’t see this!
Oooh okay! Imma look deacon up! I’m excited

Mod

Yeah! That could work, I feel like there are more options in a high school than a middle school

Mod

he's my favorite character in the game lol

Mod

nice! i definitely like this concept its something I've never done a role play about before so this will be neat

Mod

lolol thank you i was hyperfixating on fallout because it's my ~special interest~ and then went "wait what if I did a roleplay :o" and so I did

Mod

yeah! You’re welcome! I’ve played fallout like, a few years ago for a little bit and wow it’s a scary concept but also could make for such an interesting story

Also can I make cal the kid of the toxin general to add drama

Mod

yeah lmao. i always side with the railroad or the minutemen in fo4 and I haven't finished new vegas yet haha

oh absolutely I love that

Mod

ooh okay that sounds vaguely familiar, this was years ago and I don't recall which version I was trying out. my friend was into fallout so maybe I'm just remembering what they played lol since they got further than me, I think

okay cool! thanks hehe

Mod

toxin: what if we had a really controlling government
riveters: what if we had a chill government with technology
red rangers: what if we had no government
shields: what if we taught people how to fix their shit
preservers: what if we just did absolutely fucking nothing

Mod

okay so i'll add the high school thing you suggested once I've gotten the topics done for all the faction bases - I think each one should have six topics to start and then we'll add more as people request them?

Mod

OH GOSH--I'm sorry but the preservers are hilarious I love them
I just wanna make some random preserver character who is so damn naive, just...hey, lets all just be nice and I think that will solve everyones problems

Mod

that sounds good! I think there are pretty good places to start so this sounds fine

Mod

and yeah so the more I look: I feel like I'm adding drama to the spy and cal's relationship bc cal, while she hates the toxin control, also doesn't like the red ranger "lol anarchy" vibe so I feel like that will also be an issue but we shall we

Mod

that’s fine lol I love drama
I’m trying to give each of the main three like. reasonable sounding arguments for their goals? so for toxin, it’s that the wasteland needs to be forced back into shape in order for life to be like it was before the war. for the riveters, it’s that things don’t need to be pushed back together, but something new should be rebuilt from the wreckage. The red rangers’ argument is that the whole reason the apocalypse happened in the first place was because of governments fighting and trying to one-up each other.

Mod

okay haha
ooh yeah that makes sense. like, nobody will have just one idea on how to rebuild or something. okay so wait question then: what is the main goal exactly of the red riders?

Mod

the red rangers’ main goal is to remove any kind of “entire wasteland” government. small leaderships are fine, but when you have one or two people leading a huge chunk of the world, the amount of people getting fucked over is too much to consider it efficient. idk if that makes sense lol

Mod

oh wait no that makes sense! thanks

okay nvm then maybe there will be no drama lol

Mod

ALSO ALSO the riveters might seem like the best choice for the wasteland BUT! they have a deep dark secret can I pm it to you

Mod

OOH YES

Mod

okay i'm gonna get everything done today and then we'll be able to open it :DDDD
hopefully
