Fallout: Grandma Plays The Numbers

[Novus Ordo Mundi]

Why does it get rough, in the back of our limousine?
Currently, this is unanswered.
It is probably a reference to the song 'A Bizarre Love'

Yep, though the song's name is A Love Bizarre.

What worship song is Pyrrha singing from?
So, Pyrrha is one of two mortal (in all ways, because apparently, an oracle survived too, I guess) survivors from the great flood that ended the Bronze Age in Greek Mythology. So, said Oracle (of Themis) said to her and her husband, Deucalion, to throw the bones of their mother behind their shoulders in order to repopulate the earth. They recognized that their mother was Gaia, so they threw rocks over their shoulders, and they became humans.

There's a slightly different Roman version, but the gist is the same.

So, given the gods/goddesses mentioned in the stories, the worship song is either going to be from/to/about Jove (if we're using the Roman poet's version), Gaia, or Themis. Given the prevalency of Gaia, I would imagine that she would be the one to whom the worship song is being dedicated. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to find out what worship songs Gaia would use in Greek mythology, due to the prevalence of Gaia as a symbol in modern-day paganism.

Oohh... this is very well researched, I grant you. Unfortunately, you're looking in the wrong direction. Try switching your polarity.

Straightforward question, I've got no clue what the answer could be.

Don't worry, I figured you wouldn't have gotten this one. It is interesting, though. I should roll to see if they survive. Eh, I'll do it later.

Are we the only Granny active?
This is probably a key question. Not only does this make things a lot more interesting, it also illustrates something big.
Granny, at least in how I'm interpreting the question, is not an identifier of being a grandmother. It is a classification, and the sooner we find out what makes others qualified for Grannyhood, the better. Also, this signifies that there are potentially 'inactive' Granny's just hanging around, potentially recruitable ones.

Hmm... Should I throw you a bone? Let's just say that just a unanimous choice would have changed everything.

So, the key parts of this is the portion that states "It will look to be a land untouched by the nuclear holocaust the Great War unleashed. Because it is." and "If things fall apart in Pawtucket, he can help you out. He can make all the problems vanish like they never happened." Honestly, this is some pretty heavy signalling for a time-related power. Plus, the Old Lands is very similar to the Old Days. However, I think his powers are only related to going back in time, seeing as how things revert whenever his power is used, turning the land back to a place untouched by nuclear war, and erasing our problems as if they never happened. So, this is pretty good. This guy is effectively a reset button, but, I'm guessing there's a catch. "He'd like some company to walk with him through the Old Lands..." Now, this might just be my paranoia speaking, but I'm imagining that if we hang around too much, we'll join him in his walks. Possibly forever. Time will certainly get wibbly-wobbly when we deal with this guy.

You are very close to it all. Congrats on figuring (most) of it out. Also, you missed the song reference. As you may be able to tell, I'm an fan of music.

Straightforward. Probably a reference to a Nuka-Cola plant or theme park somewhere in the area. If someone else has more insight, I'm welcome to hearing it.

Click to shrink...

I'll give you a hint. Look for something one of the real life soda companies did that seems incredible.

So, I'm not very familiar with Fallout: Equestria. Anyone know anything about a 'Book of Littlepip' or 'Homage'? However, dimension crossing, and a very major side-quest, that will possibly relate back to the whole 'Granny' thing. After all, what do we know about our history? It's clearly being shown that there is something very important that we are entirely unaware of.

Click to shrink...

I see you've missed the reference. Look back in your Fallout history for help.

Actually, given that whole Zetan thing, this puts us before Fallout 3 in timeline terms, right? I mean, Zetans were destroyed by the Lone Wanderer, correct? Or no?

Click to shrink...

Nope. A Zetan does show up in Fallout 4. Basically, I'm going with there are still Zetans around.

What should we do if the Black Pharaoh finds us?
Run. Straightforward.

You may want to use Google to find out why.

Perhaps Auld Lang Syne?

Also, a potential connection to the story of the Old Man and his Dog, who passed by hell, which looked like heaven, but didn't let dogs in?

Are you perchance speaking of the film that Pepsi made, filmed partially on the ISS?

As for the rest, I'll do more research after I get some sleep.

Edit: Oh, yeah, Lovecraftian cult, right? Brotherhood of the Black Pharaoh?

Nope, but I get the reference. Twilight Zone, right?

Right being worshipped, but the cult is one of my own design

Click to shrink...

Nah, but I looked up the episode, and it's pretty much the same story.

RWBY reference. I'd been thinkign that initially, but the polarity part seals it. Not sure what that means about worship songs, though. Anyone who knows RWBY more deeply?

The other unchosen chargen options are also out there in the wilderness doing their out there in the wilderness thing. They'd probably be a lot of fun to sit down with over a game of poker.

- Diamond City, Boston *probably* has a ghoul with a grandkid. She's had one more year to Do Things.
- The Riverwalk, Texas has both a Good Natured Granny with a grandkid and a Cyborg Granny with faster perks and a level cap. They started out a while back (F:NV, rather than F4+3 years)

I see you've missed the reference. Look back in your Fallout history for help.

LittlePip may be available as a companion at the Diamond City Market? Think Tank is a brain bot down in the southwest commonwealth in Old World Blues.

Let's get to writing!

Immediately catches the flu.

Fuck.

Correct. Thought the worship song in not from Remnant.

Click to shrink...

Yep. I should warn you that the Good Natured Granny is on a ticking clock.

Also, the Granny from New Vegas (The SB winning choice from the old quest) is active, but you'll actually have to go to New Vegas to find her. So I did not count her. She may get talked about by some traders from the west.

Homage is the possible companion. But you don't know where she is. Unless you get really lucky, you'll (And the others) need the book first to start the quest.

Also, the reference I made is to as followed:

Ulysses spoke with the Think Tank, specifically Doctor Klein, who recalls him as a melancholy fellow who asked a lot about history. Ulysses also spoke with Doctor Mobius. While at the Big Empty, he questioned the Think Tank: "Who are you, that do not know your history?" This question caused them to awaken and remember that, for a time, America, the flag of which was displayed on Ulysses' back, was not just a flag, but a place, an idea that they had cared for once before.

So... we probably want to wander by Boston in the not too terribly distant future.

Also, I'm thinking there's a decent chance that the Int 15 check is up there, just at a guess.
