"Welcome to Vault-Tec!" Fallout Overseer Quest

Well, if there's anyone else voting Vault ( @The Grim Squeaker @The LD Man) or New America (@Ulster's Hound @cskey0 @DannyboyZero) who's concerned about their plan not going through, feel free to vote Plan Leader.

I would vote for plan teacher, just...not too big a fan of taking what is essentially a character from one work and plopping them into something else entirely as an OC. The QM's said they have no idea of what Keine's like, so it's not a big worry, but she still has the same name, appearance, and focus on history/teaching as the canon character.
Out of curiosity, what would be your reasons for not voting Plan Leader?

I think the main thing is that they don't agree with the Vault choice, some people just prefer the vault with a lot of history material to the one full of trained soldiers.
 
not voting but wanna say people ar missing out on the potential of multiple jobs especially if we wnt to collage like being a TA which may givve unknow bonusus. dont ssquander it

Considering how close it was I'll likely be including our runner-up in the Vault somewhere, same goes for the other suggested main characters since I liked both of them as well.

Now that we've got our Overseer and Vault selected I'll work on getting a first starter post up in the next few days. Until then though, I do have one minor question:

Since we're locked into Vault 38, would you all like to hear what the special objectives of Vault 23 and 89 were going to be?
[ ] yes
[ ] no

Seems pretty unanimous.

So Vault 23 was going to be full to the brim with patriots, but not just your average patriots. Like full blown McCarthyist "I will happily kill my neighbor if he was a pinko commie" patriots. Things would be okay for a week or two, most people in the Vault upset about the war obviously but the entire super patriotism atmosphere leading to generally positive vibes. Goal given to the Overseer would be to monitor social shifts amongst the populace as stimuli is introduced to the inhabitants. Things would seem normal for a few weeks w/ no sign of any stimuli. Then about 2 weeks or a month in an automated message would be sent to the Vault via the same means the "all-clear signal" is to be broadcast, informing them that there appears to have been Chinese spies amongst the pre-selected occupants and that surviving elements of the US intelligence community were able to get this information to Vault-Tec before their equipment failed from damage and radiation on the surface. Que paranoia/witch hunt vault.

Vault 89 meanwhile was going to have a few telling things at first. Despite being advertised as a Vault for veterans there would be a number of nuclear physicists w/ reserved spots and a good number of the veterans would all be from the Navy. Vault security would also be augmented by actual soldiers and there would be a stockpile of weapons including power armor deep in the Vault. Even deeper and more hidden would be a sub pen, a stockpile of ship construction materials, as well as a stockpile of ICBMs. Secret goal would be revealed to be that the Vault's current population are to both construct several SSBNs and make, raise, and train the next generation of soldiers and sailors who will after 20-25 years take the Vault's small flotilla of self-produced subs to launch a second strike on any surviving Chinese cities before linking up with any surviving elements of the US government/military (*cough*Enclave/Poseiden Oil Rig*cough*). Planned things to go wrong included a Soviet SSBN trying to blast open the sub pens in order for it's crew to gain refuge in the Vault, a potential revolt amongst veterans who view the entire goal as futile/don't want their kids forced into being soldiers/sailors, as well as a potential surprise arrival by the Enclave to check on progress and potentially abduct people needed to man the oil rig.

Glad we didn't choose either for obvious reasons though I know our own Vault will have trouble as well.

However a overly paranoid society and a over militarized one controlled by the Enclave are ones I'm happy we didn't choose.
 
the submarine base/plot would have been a great idea! we could have had the chance to explore the rest of the world since our orders were to go to China and wreck more stuff...
 
You wouldn't have necessarily been under Enclave control, the Enclave would be expecting you all to follow orders but should you and other dwellers chose to not then manpower would be on your side, though unless things went really lucky the Vault would take some nasty casualties cause it turns out men in advanced, experimental power armor are an utter bitch to take down and are pretty good at cutting through enemy combatants. That being said I can fully understand that sort of a scenario/premise being unappealing to someone.

And true, you wouldn't necessarily have to go back to the Enclave, they'd just expect you to. Since you'd have at least one SSBN by then you'd be able to go around and see how shitty things look elsewhere in the globe and just dick around in your submarine, see if any other nation's navies have survived and are floating around or beached anywhere, maybe shoot a whale with a torpedo for fun, idk.
