Nuka-Girl: The Lone Teleporter (Or: "That time Taylor found herself in the Fallout Universe").

survival mode my friend, it ain't easy
I know, I've even tried not using FT and I didn't know I would miss some events cause of it. Although walking from one end of the map to another isn't something I would enjoy.
*Cough* Sorry if I was derailing...

Anyway, I didn't expect Nora to actually return back to Earth-Gimel, and her bringing Shaun back didn't seem to be they are not planning to stay in Earth-Bet.
 
Okay, Nora and most of her group have finished their first pass on Earth Bet and headed home with their goodie bags to share out. Hancock is still hanging out on Bet, I suspect easy access to Merchant dealers might have something to do with that in addition to his problems back on Gimel. It's good to see Shaun got a usable helmet for his power armor, that bit of baseball gear was just asking for trouble the longer he kept using it. And Taylor and Gracie have finally made some new doggie buddies. It'll be interesting to see what sort of patterns come from that butterfly's wingbeats.

As for the Railroad wanting to have personnel stationed at the Bet terminus of the teleport station, that makes perfect sense to me. It's the best way to monitor things while keeping an eye on the mostly foreign civilization on Bet until they have enough long-term data to work with. I just wonder what the unit that will be pulling reciprocal duty on the Fallout side will make of things there.

Copious amounts of PTSD, I imagine. And an unhealthy love of Scion for getting rid of the threat of nuclear war.

Also, a mild and very sensible bowel-loosening terror at the idea of nukes getting launched.
 
I'm surprised he didn't keep the baseball helmet aesthetic for the top part.
I suspect he wanted the helmet to be a closer match to the rest of his armor and the baseball helmet aesthetics just didn't fit his mental image. Not to mention, armoring up the headgear probably meant it was going to fall more into traditional Fallout helmet designs anyway so he could be assured of being able to still maintain it when they went home.

The main issue seems to have been that they couldn't miniaturise the standard power armor helmet before. The smaller dimensions meant they had trouble not only fabricating it but also fitting the necessary electronic and other subsystems into it.
So the current helmet had to be built from the ground up with a child's dimensions in mind anyway. It could be any shape he wanted.
 
Eh, the baseball helmet didn't really match the power armor aesthetic. so I choose Shaun to alter the look of that anyhow.
 
I have a question...

If a Wastelands triggered and through a Shaker/Biokinesis/Projector power brought the Unstoppables and their villains to life... What do you think would happen with each one?

And to life I mean flesh and blood life, with powers and all. Like weapons imbued with Dauntless like abilities and so on.

Me, I wonder if Grognak would become a Raider...

I know some of them wouldn't deal well with the World they would find themselves in, but they might make the place better.

If they're fully self-aware and everything, and just not some summoned permanent sapient projection that the summoner had a very strong impression of and thus assigned personality traits to, Then I think the first thing they'd have is a crisis of identity once they found out that the person summoned them from a comic book or something.

But after the initial Identity crisis was over, I think they'd probably separate to do things that felt more natural and comfortable to them. The unstoppable comic series was supposed to be about the unique team-up moments between all characters because it was rare that they'd have to team up in order to stop a deadly foe. Otherwise, they liked to do their own thing in the comics.

Grognak was clearly based on not only the Conan the barbarian character but also TWO TV shows back in the '50s that used to be very popular. specifically, Jungle Jim and then later on Tarzan. He was very similar to Cico from Nuka-world, just more well-spoken, in that he primarily focused on fighting animal cruelty and poaching, etc. he would occasionally help out people in trouble though if he determined that they were innocent of any sins against animals. So based on this, This tells me that he would probably end up teaming up with Cico in Nukaworld, even living there full time, if he doesn't go down to the massive swamp forests of Florida.

The Inspector seems to be what happens when sliver age Superman and Miss Zatanna had a female baby, and that baby went on to marry a black man when she grew up, AND then that granddaughter went on to become a full-fledged Superhero Detective. She dresses like a more modest version of Zatanna but works at the province building that was Superman's building in the black and white superman series when Gegore Reeves used to play him. And yeah, she appears to be mixed, being black but with some white characteristics such as having naturally non-nappy hair.
She very literally uses magic to solve her cases... so I think her appeal was that she'd get straight to the answer so everyone would know who did it right away, but we as an audience had to see how she'd have to work "backward" in order to convince the cops and others of the criminal's violation of the law, otherwise they'd go free. in other words, her biggest foes would be clever criminals who didn't leave any evidence otherwise and had seemingly hard clad alibis, making them untouchable otherwise in the eyes of the law. Because without evidence to back up her discovery, those criminals would get away with everything they did. Thus the audience would root for the Inspector to catch the bad guys in the act so that they wouldn't get away with everything.
Based on this... I think she'd probably go to Rhode Island first, just to see what happened with the people there since she was originally based there. maybe the Ghouls in the building would think she's just a crazy yet dedicated fan who were really committed to the bit of being the Inspector. otherwise? I can kinda see her expanding beyond Rhode island a little bit, maybe even opening up her own detective agency, and occasionally teaming up with Nick Valentine?

The Silver Shroud and Mistress of Mystery seem to be canonically a couple as they've had flings together in the past. So I suspect they'd do a whole lot of comforting each other in Boston as they grapple with losing everything they've ever known and loved... save each other.
The Silver Shroud seems to be like Batman, but without the dislike for guns and more dressing up as a noir guy than a bat. Mistress of Mystery seems to be a more heroic Catwoman, with a strong slant towards Indiana Jones-style archaeology adventures rather than robbing museums and jewels, although she will occasionally do that... for a good cause. This gives you an idea as to what hi-jinks they'd get up to together.

Manta Man, clearly an Aquaman proxy. They seem to make it a joke that literally nobody knows what Manta Man can do... but clearly he's got water-based powers, and is more powerful in the sea than on land. So, I guess he'd become a seafaring hero?
 
Okay, you know so much more about them than me. And I can see what you are saying.

So in my mind, the trigger would be a kid who read a couple surviving Unstoppable Comics, and squatted in an Abandoned Hubris Comics store. Afraid of Raiders looking for loot, and when she triggers she charges the building like Dauntless does his items.

In the morning the Raiders are gone, the building is in better shape, and the kid finds some more comics to read. So she stays longer dumping more charges in the building, finding some snacks sponsored by the various members of the Unstoppables, and the building over the day starts looking like it had been left abandoned rather then destroyed by an atomic bomb and looting.

Basically the building gains a kind of repair ability as well as protection in the form of spectral comic characters dealing with things like Raiders trespassing, the second charge coupled with the girl staying in the building hastened the restoration and generated things to entice her to stay. The third day the charge empowers the Hubris Comics brand, causing things Hubris Comics branded to gain echoes of this empowerment, or in other words Hubris Comics stores start repairing themselves, restocking with new and old comics and things.

At that point faux Unstoppables start appearing alongside eerie store employees who are all made to make her comfortable with them, at first appearing like robots and mascots, and of course the store expands to another floor that acts as a comic archive and a toy store. With the original store gaining an expanded food section, with an employee to offer food.

Eventually a manager spawns who demands money, that she can't just loiter in the store for free, and ends up tossing her for stealing and such. The store not noticing since it is basically fully empowered, the other stores lacking the full empowerment being less content about this, and maybe even sending out their own individuals to draw her to them.

Maybe she ends up in another store not Hubris for awhile, but eventually she is caught by Raiders and the inevitable happens. She dies despite some Unstoppable Mascot/Plushies, robots, and almost real ones coming to save her.

And I am rambling...

Sorry
 
Mistress of Mystery died trying to turn the tide against the Raiders of West Virginia. You can her line show up do to a Girl/Women pick up the Mantle permanently.

The person who asked me that question was talking about the actual fictional characters brought to life themselves, not the actors/actresses who played those fictional characters.
The person, Shannon Rivers, who played Mistress of Mystery was a radio personality.... a voice actress in other words?

But yes, I definitely can see plenty of people in the fallout world getting inspired by the fictional characters and deciding to take on those names.... :)
 
Taylor redesign ideas.
I'm pretty fond of the Nuka-girl outfit and want to keep it. but even so, sometimes we need to experiment with other looks first to see how they would look, right? So I messed around in Daz to give myself some ideas for what helmet she should replace the fishbowl helm with.


And of course, I looked at other artists I liked. There are the random designs I liked:

https://www.artstation.com/artwork/0mLYw (this one is my favorite so far)


https://www.artstation.com/artwork/oAyYKB (this one looks more like if Armsmaster upgraded his power armor so that it could be more space-faring or survive a nuclear wasteland)


https://www.artstation.com/artwork/J9DkNA (I could see the PR dept pushing for this one. it's retro-ish, but without sexualizing a teenager).

https://www.artstation.com/artwork/BmzW86 (I also like the idea of Taylor just straight up making a more streamlined power armor for her alter ego with armsmaster)

https://www.artstation.com/artwork/rywG (also why not just go full-on astronaut with a mask under that helmet? )
 
I know heroes are "encouraged" to not use full face masks in Worm, but Taylor really should since her civilian ID is famous. So her costume should have at least a full face mask and change her figure.

Yup. hence why my favorites seem to be the ones that conceal most of the face, if not the entire face.

But knowing Taylor, she would probably also want a costume that's more practical long-term. What if she finds herself in another situation where there are no private bathrooms with lockable doors for miles around and she's forced to go outside? She went through that shit having to completely undress because a one-piece bodysuit wasn't designed with that in mind... "NEVER AGAIN!"

So, a costume that has different clothing pieces, a helmet that has a detachable part for her to eat and drink, etc. something she'd be comfortable in long-term should civilization collapse.
 
Pulling from Earth Gimel, you could unleash the monstrosity that is... Captain Cosmos Power Armor.

What's odd is, it comes with a jetpack when you get it, but I can't find a good picture of it with one installed. >.>

Edit:
Two shots with the jetpack. One of which Aurora Moon pointed out was on the first link, but at pretty resolutions, and with more chrome reflection on the helmet faceplate as opposed to a matte single color.

I like the bodysuit from 5 but am undecided on the helmet. Having her keep the color scheme just feels right, somehow.

I like number 3. As an alternative have you ever seen the movie The Rocketeer starring Billy Campbell? The Rocketeer's outfit from it might work. It keeps the same eras looks roughly, can be discreetly armored and even with a woman more endowed than Taylor wearing it, it is not overly sexualized.
 
Unless she want to completely ditch her Nuka-Girl color scheme, I'd try for 4 or maybe 10 out of your first array. That being said, if she's got a usable design for her jet pack that has a reasonably long run time, maybe fitting it to that realistic model spacesuit in her color scheme might be the way to go. Though she'd need to redesign her Nuka Blasters to better fit the new motif.
 
Its always hard to find actual armor art for women that don't make them look like a hoe.
Still trying to get over the RE game where everyone is geared up except this one woman who is in the arctic dresses like she's cosplaying a agent.

Which is the reason I only liked the suits 6, 7, and 8. The rest I can't take seriously.
The guys are dressed from head to toe in armor and she's just a mess.
