Perks and Recreation

[BEB0P]

I'm never sure as to how I organize a thread for general information, as opposed to just inputting things into a character profile, but here goes-- Pardon my dust!

We're going to be trying something to for the Fallout RP; Where previous threads like Nations and Halo have us set up with no terms of video game-like progression (Or no reason for it.), Fallout contains a set of special abilities otherwise known as "Perks". Perks are something like a defining trait to your character, and writing-wise, gives you an edge or penalty in certain role-playing scenarios. It is now our job to become aware of these. Your characters also come with attributes, known as your "SPECIAL", which is actually just a lot of words made out into one. I will provide links to both at the bottom of this no-reply thread.

So, here is how it goes, and the rules are simple:

• You start off with two traits, and three perks.
• Your SPECIAL points are not confined to the starting amount, but it's recommended that you compensate accordingly for any high amount in one given skill.
• Your Traits are set in stone, but you are able to gain perks.
• To gain another perk, you must participate in and complete a Falllout RP thread.
• To gain an additional skill point, you are requried to participate in and
  complete TWO Fallout RP threads.
• Certain traits and perks such as "Bloody Mess" and so forth are banned or deemed unnecessary.
  They will be provided in a post extension to this one.

If you have any questions or concerns, please let me know. I am open to suggestion on most days, and fairly rational. Until then, please, I encourage you all to have fun in this world that we've created within a world.
