Classes?[edit]

Unlike Traditional Fifth Edition, Fallout does not use classes. Instead, it uses a perk-based system similar to feats. Use the following to build your character.

After assigning your ability scores, pick one type of weapon (Pistol, Rifle, Shotgun, Sub-Machine Gun, Heavy, Thrown, or Melee) and one damage type (Ballistic, Energy, Explosive, or Melee). When using a weapon that has either of the chosen features, you may add half your Proficiency modifier to attack rolls. If it has both, you may add your entire Proficiency bonus. Additionally, you gain proficiency in 2 skills of your choice. You may instead gain no proficiency in any weapons to gain proficiency in 2 additional skills. Next, you pick one common (Dexterity, Constitution, Wisdom) and one uncommon (Strength, Charisma, Intelligence) saving throw to gain proficiency in. Finally, each player must pick one of the following:

  • 1. Big Brain: Your Intelligence and Dexterity increase by +2, you gain (1+ Int) proficiencies of your choice, and your hit die is 1d4.
  • 2. Light Frame: Your Dexterity increases by +3 and your hit die is 1d6.
  • 3. Average Joe: Your hit die is 1d8.
  • 4. Big Hoss: Your Dexterity decreases by -2 and your hit die is 1d10
  • 5. Hulk: Your Intelligence and Dexterity decrease by -2, and your hit die is 1d12.

Your starting equipment should be discussed with your DM and personalized based on each player’s proficiencies. Or not, because who are we to stop you?

Faction Perks[edit]

The wasteland is a dangerous place and like history has shown us, people will most often group up and begin a civilization based off common beliefs like the old U.S. government or the roman empire and so have the people of the wasteland, these "factions" have special quirks and so do their people. Are you a person associated or part of these factions? then you might have some of these special quirks.

This works to replace backgrounds and give characters a way to show their faction pride or lack thereof, at the beginning of character creation you can choose up to 2 quirks, afterward these can only be given by the aforementioned factions or are automatically received if the character meets the requirements if they are already part of the faction, like a subclass.

Being part of a faction typically comes with some sort of social limitation. Like with backgrounds, members of the same faction are more likely to help you, while members of other factions may be more suspicious of you, or outright hostile if they know your allegiance.

Note: Ranks above level 10 should be given some sort of ceremony or reasoning as to how or why the character received such rank, Example A raider veteran killed a deathclaw single handedly to receive boss status, or an actual election was held for the Enclave colonel to gain presidency.

Enclave Quirks[edit]

The Enclave are the remnants of the American elite and high ranking members of the U.S. government/military, who sealed themselves in personal bunkers and offshore getaways in order to survive the Great War relatively comfortably. They believe that they are the inheritors and rebuilders of America, as well as the only true humans not including vault dwellers, and must do whatever it takes to secure the rule of the new U.S. government. To that end, they have waged wars, developed superweapons, and even attempted to poison the entire west coast to kill off any mutated humans, no matter how mundane the mutation.

The NCR follow a very similar army structure to the old U.S. army, much to the Enclave's chagrin.

Fourth generation synths, who are cloned from a motely of the Institute's various genetics, and occasionally that of wastelanders, are effectively cybernetically enhanced and limited humans, leading many to compare their service of their makers to slavery. The Institute is widely regarded as the "boogey men" of the Commonwealth, with altercations sourcing from distrust during their early efforts to rebuild society, and their subsequent complete secession from the surface world, being used to blame them for any number of things, though they have been proven to kidnap and replace certain individuals with synths.
