For two hours, war engulfed the world, and with it all was laid to ruin. A glorious future brought low by greed, consumerism and the arrogance of a few men and women. Still some foresaw the coming calamity and built vaults to hide, protect and shelter the population from nuclear fire. Well that is what they said anyway. We all know the stories of the Vaults. The crazed inhuman experiments. The madness. The despair.
This is the story of Vault 77, originally situated in what was known as the town of Corvallis in the state of Oregon. Its purpose. To study how a population made of one specific demographic of people under constant real threat, would react and overcome that threat. Especially when they couldn't leave until the threat was eliminated.
Thus, unknown to the residents' samples of the FEZ and preserved mole foetuses were placed beneath the vault set to trigger one month after the vault closed. And they did. Diggers, bastards, whatever you want to call them these monstrous creatures were fuelled by an insatiable hunger.
And so the residents of Vault 77 fought back, to defeat the creatures and win their freedom.
Who were they?

We've eventually sorted out our test group into three demographics, now it's up to the board to pick which group gets put in the thing.
[X] Military: Made up of soldiers, veterans and their families, this test group would have reacted best overall. Predictions indicate the constant threat and lack of weapons will have forced them to adapt. Society is strict and regimented. Food is rationed; there is little room for thought outside of battle. Even so, they have turned themselves into excellent soldiers.
{X] Scientists: Thinkers, learners and dreamers, this test group would have reacted worst initially being unused to combat. Still after the initial shock and loss of population it is predicted that depending on the surviving scientists they will pool their knowledge and create a counter to the creatures. It could be advanced robots, laser weapons or something else.
[X] Artists: Another name for these people would be hippies, but lets be fair. When placed in the vault it is anticipated that they will try to live as normally as possible, but when the moles come they may attempt to control them. How we're not sure, maybe tributes of food or soothing music, but our best predictions are that they will control them. It satisfies the terms of the experiment, they will eliminate the threat I suppose.
We are ready to begin the process immediately, just waiting for the word.

Im not biased. Okay maybe a bit.
But I haven't seen artists as a group before and I think that would be really interesting!!

Your opening bracket is the wrong kind, if there is a automated vote tally then you won't be counted.
