All about my Fallout characters

This post will probably be most interesting to people who like RPGs, and believe it or not, I usually don’t. I’ve probably said before that I like being given an existing character with a purpose, e.g. I’m Jill Valentine or I’m Ada Wong, and I’m here doing this thing and I’m mad about that thing, and my goal is to go and shoot that guy, etc etc.
I remember when Vily first bought me Fallout 3, and I was playing it on stream, I got out of the Vault and said, OK, now where do I go? And chat said, “wherever you want.” WHAT DO YOU MEAN, WHEREVER I WANT?!
Learning disabilities also make me struggle with aspects of RPGs. Does this perk give me 5% thing while I’m doing blah? Cool, but I’m literally incapable of remembering that so I will never think about it or make gameplay decisions around it.

With that said, Fallout is now a big part of my life. I’m somehow playing 4 of the games at once, although this decreased a lot with our recent batch of illness, and I’ve been struggling while waiting for my latest migraine botox to take effect, and for my head and neck to stop feeling so sore and swollen.

Anyway, here are my characters, in the approx order I made them (I’m confused about when Butti the 3rd came, it must’ve been after 4’s Butti in which case, why did I call her that? I have no idea anymore). For an explanation of the Butti naming system, see this Instagram caption lol.

It seemed like a good time to finally make this, as I have a New Vegas video releasing on Tuesday.

Outfits: Constantly changing, usually have Shielded V76 Jumpsuit under under a Nuka Quantum Jumpsuit, Enclave outfits, Ranger armor, Rooster gas mask, wedding ring, etc.
Usually wear a set of Civil Engineer Armor, and have an alternate chest piece with jetpack fitted (had to do a lot of grinding with Danilo for that one). Also use the Chinese Stealth Armor a lot.

Home: Main camp is at Hole 2 on the Whitespring Golf Course. I have a few others I rotate through every now and then but I love my main camp.

Camp allies:
Beckett, White Shepherd (Freya), in one of my other camps I have a Bombay Cat named Zosma.
When I met Beckett I remember thinking he was so well acted that I really need to get my act together (excuse the pun?) with my own career, when I’m not feeling like complete death somehow.

Generally allied to the Appalachian Enclave and the Crater Raiders, but mostly friendly with everyone.
