Board Thread:What Would You Do?/@comment-35898511-20190521054620/@comment-38918789-20190524021758

I was one of the lucky ones. I made it into Vault 114 just a few minutes before the bombs were dropped in Maine. I was on the other side of the border, in what used to be the province of New Brunswick, Canada. I had been going to Maine to buy something, I don't remember what. Then, the sirens rang out, warning of an air raid. Being the somewhat competent man that I am I drove towards the nearest Vault, Vault 114.

When I got in,  I noticed it was mostly men in the vault. I still don't understand why. Anyways, we were led to these wierd pod-like things, "Simulacrums" they called 'em. Anyways, the last thing I heard before blacking out was a scientist saying something about a nuclear assault by the Chinese.

I woke up 20-something years later. Apperently the generators broke down for a bit, messing with the pod-things. The first thing I noticed after leaving the simu-room was a lot of dirt in the hallways. That was my first sign that it wasn't safe here anymore. Than I saw the bodies of 3 guards. At least, I think they were guards. They didn't have any armor on. I decided the place was a lost cause so I went to the only exit: the giant gear-shaped door of the Vault. Thankfully they gave us these Pip-boys to do, something. I don't really know. Anyways, the first thing I saw after regaining the ability to see was a whole lot of ruined buildings and blackened trees. I saw what looked to be giant humanoid cockroaches in the distance, but I just assumed it was a mirage. I tuned the radio to an old favorite of mine, 98.5 FM. Suddenly the Pip-boy's small speakers play "Country Roads, Take me Home". I found myself walking down the road, practically screaming the lyrics in the hopes of attracting the presence of another human being. It did not turn out as expected. Instead, a group of what looks like green orc-like girls open fire at me from an old general store. Being the unarmed wuss that I was, I ran past the store, straight into what looked like a woman covered with grey scales. I just recently found out that they're called "Deathclaws". The rest of the story? Why don't you ask her?

(Sorry if there's any grammatical errors or lore contradictions. I haven't played Fallout in a while.)
