Yeah the dice are either saints or devils.
Technically anywhere you would like. You using myth-weavers? There should be a box or like a section of lines for them. If not, them probably easiest is like in an "Other Notes" section or whatever have you. Hope this kinda helps.
Notes on Equipment and Buying
- Location
- USA
Well there is the list of standard vault dwellers have. Everybody should have those items period. And then it's fairly free reign from there as long as the purchase DC is below your wealth bonus. Your family could even have had a vehicle stored if you want (but most are expensive and will probably require a wealth check[1d20+wealth bonus] this in turn lowers your wealth bonus depending on how well you roll). Under vault dwellers on the Homebrew threadmark there are minor restrictions like no machine guns or automatic weapons to start. There are also illegal items that are highly accessable so yeah definitely feel free to buy whatever you want. I can't think of anything else that wouldnt really be allowed.

Switched my Wisdom/Perception with Intelligence/Intelligence. Treating wounds is wisdom based, not int based. Similarly dedicated hero is apparently what I want if I want to go doctor, not int hero.

Only reason for this is that most people wouldn't have brought such weapons into the vault (they were kind of out dated with all the technology they had). So there really isn't a way to train in them until you get into the wastes where newly forged variants of these will be available.
Yep totally fine! They would of been the family that was like the first inside because of their wealth and power.

Quick question: In the core rulebook, characters at 1st level get 2 feats, then an 3rd level get another feat. So for our 3rd level characters, should it be:
* 2 feats (1st + 3rd level combined) + 1 feat (Human) + bonus feats = 3 + bonus feats, or
* 3 feats (1st + 3rd level combined) + 1 feat (Human) + bonus feats = 4 + bonus feats?
To double check,
* increase critical hit threat range
* still need to roll to confirm critical hit?
* if confirmed, roll double the damage dice
* but deal less potential damage since we take the lowest dice rolls?
Critical distinction! Is this "strange AND wonderful benefits", or "strange OR wonderful benefits"?
Thanks for clarifying!

You are absolutely right! I had a typo lol so 4 feats as a 3rd level character plus whichever class bonus feats.
________________________
Yes that's exactly how it's supposed to work. You potentially do more damage because of the double damage dice, but at the drawback that it could still be a fairly low critical hit. (Example. Rolling 2d8 instead of 1d8, then the lower of those 2 rolls is the damage you multiply for the critical hit). No need for confirms though! (I hate rolling to confirm so I wont make you guys do it)
_______________
AND wonderful benefits lol I'm still keeping the effects secret until someone decides to play a herbologist, botanist, etc. And only they will know the possible effects of this new fruit.
___________
Luck will have a job in almost anything you do. Usually when doing something you can roll a Luck ability check to basically try to get something to fall in your favor. However if you have an extremely high luck score (15+) you automatically get a +1 to literally anything you do (attacks, skills, saves, etc).
Consequently, those with low luck scores (anything under 10) receive a -1 to literally everything.

So basically, Luck is as important as it was in Fallout New Vegas?

Besides being able to heal anybody And get paid for it? Benefits would include: Having the knowledge of true surgical skills instead of whatever hack jobs that the wastelanders try to pass off as "Medical Expertise"; As a dedicated hero you can make use of your high PER with Sense Motive, Survival, Spot, Listen, etc to extremes; You could also still multiclass (Be a dedicated yet very strong or tough doctor?)
Just my 2¢ cuz I tend to like playing doctors in RPGs actually

Not sure about the very strong or tough part. I just about reach 12 END if I make LUK a 10 but STR remains a miserable 8. 15 AGI/DEX does mean I can shoot somewhat well...if I can carry any weapon at all!
Anyway, all of that is less important. Do you really think its a good idea to set the game in 25XX? I mean...I dunno. By 2280s, the NCR - at least - was definitely recovering, if overstretched in their hubris. The point being 200 more years down the line, how much of the wasteland would remain untamed? Or am I overestimating the rate of society's recovery here.
- Location

Pretty much. At least their rate of growth in MY eyes lol most wastelanders will be sorta unintelligent, and there will be much more tribals around. But yes the brotherhood and things still have a hold on what small territory they own. Also because of the far shot timeline, there will be more of the Earth trying to reclaim places with new plants and animals mutated by the radiation. Earth has a faster growth rate than the Humans at this point. But if you guys are able to open the vault from the inside, then you can try to turn the tides and strengthen the Human population with your non-radiated selves lol

Question. We get Simple Weapon Proficiency as a Vault Dweller, but I also get it as a starter feat for being a Dedicated Hero. If I pick Good Natured, do I lose both or do I still get Simple Weapon Proficiency from my class feat?
EDIT: Also edited my reply in the modern RP over at giants.

Anything you want answered faster can be asked there. Or we can use it as just a general chatroom.
I'll be going over what sheets there are currently since I got rained out from work today XD so I got some free time to kill
I'll hopefully also get the campaign setting threadmark up today so there is an actual fleshed out idea of everything.
