#Fallout verse info to come eventually

[shadovan]

Smack the like for a lich in your askbox!

Could be a meme, could be chaotic mischief, we’ll find out when he gets there.

[saiibeo]

I think I'm going for it. I'm not gonna immediately update their verse for Fallout just yet but-

born in a vault in Nevada and grew up as one of the more skilled tech experts and engineers for the vault. studied hacking and reprogramming bots on their own time and with the help of one of the nicer elders.

willingly left the vault at 18 with their twin brother Crane due to the mistreatment by their parents and no longer wanting to stay in that environment as they'd rather take their chances in the wastes.

is recruited to be one of House's helpers and Corvus accepted due to the significant amount of caps that was being offered to them. Since this gave them and Crane a nice place to stay on the New Vegas strip they went about their duties without complaint and without question.

They never meet Mr. House, already thinking it's strange that no one had ever seen him nor had anyone really entered the Lucky 38. (They hadn't either, doing most of the work he wanted from them strictly elsewhere with the bots overseeing their work.) That included in data and info collected for him.

When Six came around they started getting curious, but had no intention on standing in their way regardless of what they chose. Though, the default canon for Corvus in terms of ending is 'Independent New Vegas'. Especially since Corvus had no easy way of simply quitting the job when they had gotten too deep into it. Six killing off House was their ticket out.

After the events of New Vegas, the twins pick up and move to the Commonwealth. Corvus was never a companion nor a vital character in New Vegas, but that's what leads them to being a Fallout 4 Companion.

Corvus is around 24 during the events of Fallout 4 as they were 18 during the events of New Vegas.

They meet the Sole Survivor (at least specifically River by default if not interacting with a Sole Survivor) some time after the events of finding Kellogg. That's where they're found in the Rob-Co location surrounded by deathclaws and held up in one of the security rooms after warning the Sole Survivor via radio.

Corvus, canonically to River at least, joins the Minutemen after and has a personal quest in order to find and rescue their brother Crane who also joins the order. Their personal quest doesn't take long to achieve because it's not entirely affinity based and both the twins become available as a duo set of companions(or one at a time if the Sole Survivor wishes, but River usually keeps the two together).

The two are capable of being paired with Dogmeat as well, so if traveling with Corrine and Crane the canine is often still around as well.

Corrine comes with an xp buff when hacking and retrieving Crane doubles the xp buff. Yes I still think about the game details.

Corrine does still do the upgrade to the Sole Survivor's pipboy allowing them to be communicated with. Crane having his own also becomes available to be communicated with. This function serves a large purpose in finding him during their personal quest. The two also have a function that gives them map markers to be located.

TLDR: You get both of the copy and paste duo as companions now and this also means Corrine technically has a New Vegas verse.

I'll eventually spew more about this someday but this is as far as I go for now ajdskajd.

Thank you!

General:

Name: Amber Starling Alias: Em (Jean when they were friends), Starling (Jean after their fallout), Stalker (as informant). Gender: Cis Woman. Age: Depends on the verse. To be honest, I don't really think about numbers in bio. xD That includes weight, height, etc. Spoken Language: English. In some verces russian (haven't decided that yet). Sexual orientation: Demi-Besixual and Demi-biromantic. Occupation: A highly in-demand information broker nicknamed Stalker. Crimes Records Specialist at GCPD.

Favorite:

Color: Orange/Ginger, green, blue. Entertainment: Fandoms activity. Selfshipping… sometimes obsessing over "interesting people"… before stalking them. Pastime: Watching media. Reading books, often psychology books and books about lies and manipulation.Gathering info on those she likes. Food: She keeps her diet strict and gets very nervous when she falls from her course. Drink: Milk, water, wine, pineapple juice.

Have They…

Passed University: In some verses. Often she has fake documents that she did. Had Sex: No. But she masturbates and has toys. Had Sex in Public: No Gotten Tattoos: No Gotten Piercings: No Gotten Scarred: In some verses. For example, in Zero Year!Verse she got a scar during Riddler's reign because she was a beginner at her game, and the city was a pretty wild place at that time. Had a Broken Heart: In a way — not romantically, but her broken friendship with Jean affected her a lot, also making her believe that she is naturally evil.

Are They…

A cuddler: Sometimes against cuddles completely, sometimes can't get enough of them. Scared Easily: Not anymore. Jealous Easily: No and YES. She doesn't get jealous over other people simply existing around her special one and playing significant roles in their lives, but if they try to take "her place," that's when the mad yandere comes out to "clean up." Disrespecting "her claim" is the right way to make her commit crimes. Trustworthy: Nope. She cleansed herself from all kinds of shame, but she does have standards. She also does her "work" honestly - for reputation reasons.

Family:

Siblings: None. Parents: She grew up in an orphanage. Some families adopted her, but ultimately she was returned. The first family went broke after they got scammed by their bank after it was robbed. Second was very strict with raising her to their perfect image—that's how she got anxiety and perfectionism. However, her stepfather started to go inappropriate with her. That time she met her classmate Jean (in the new school she was transferred to since adoption), so she started to avoid her dad like Jean avoided his home because she didn't want to go back to the orphanage and be separated from her one true friend. At that time she started to go more and more twisted, blackmailing her stepmom with what she knew about her stepdad when Mom demanded that she end her friendship with Jean. When friendship fell out, she reported her stepdad to the police and was returned to the orphanage in the end. Then she was adopted by a very mentally ill man named Seymour. He taught her self-defense, and they actually loved each other, but he was cut off from his medications and lost his job eventually. Later in a psychotic episode, he tried to kill her "to save her from this broken world," which resulted in her stabbing him in self-defense. After that, she was once again returned and gave up on stepfamilies. And then she met one of the orphanage's benefactors and decided to get his attention to gain his favor. In the end he was like a father figure to her, teaching her things and giving a start to her informant "career." I know my writing here is messy, but I'm trying to convey it as shortly as I can. xD Children: In some verses, she has a son named Seymour. Pets: None. She likes them, but doesen't have time for them and too paranoid to belive they won't be used against her.

@stargazingdustbunny @wandamayday ;)

Oc tag game!

I was tagged by both @scandistar and @optimisticgrey and couldn't not fill it with Glass! So, here's my girl.

Tagging @vspin @loony-lupus @monsterlimbs @drownedrow @queen-belial @abysskinn @corpsesticks @cymbelines-flame @citruskushh @rinwellisathing next. Without pressure!

General:

Name: Saorsie Vellard Glassred Alias: Glass by her family, Red by Gortash and party, Gender: Cis Woman Age: 37-40, she doesn't remember exact number Spoken Language: Common, Infernal Sexual orientation: Pansexual and gortromantic Occupation: Former bhaalist leader, then adventurer, lately - Lady in Baldur's Gate

Favorite:

Color: Gold, red and black Entertainment: Hanging out on streets. Usually alone, sometimes with Gortash or Gale Pastime: Cooking. She is actually good at it, but it's usually unnoticeable, because she likes raw more Food: Yes Drink: Anything that can burn - she can drink it

Have They...

Passed University: Not actually. She is educated, but once she killed her family, Glass stopped learning new things beside what she needs in life Had Sex: Easier to say who wasn't in her bed Had Sex in Public: It was part of some "rituals" Bhaal demanded. Do other cultists count as public? Gotten Tattoos: All over her body Gotten Piercings: Earrings Gotten Scarred: I can't show it on her model in-game, but she actually has a lot of scars. The most important - traces of Slayer's claws (it was Bhaal in slayer form) on her ribs, autopsy scar on her chest and stomach and three scars with Gortash's surname: on her arm (real one), thigh and stomach. +Prosthetic arm, but it's not exactly a scar Had a Broken Heart: For that she need have a heart first,

Are They...

A cuddler: Not at all Scared Easily: If it's not about motherhood - no. She reacts with blank face even on her death. But if it is - 100% yes, she would go mad immediately Jealous Easily: It's hard to make her jealous. Glassred treats physical contact as a mere need, just as she needs food and sleep (through, she almost doesn't sleep, lol), so she would be completely fine with her partner sleeping with others. But should they decide to have real polyamorous relationship, she would become very angry and bitter Trustworthy: You don't want to trust her. Really, you don't

Family:

Siblings: ...how many children did Bhaal have? Well, this number Parents: Not mention her Father and her first adoptive family (they were too kind for their own good), the most important parent figure in her life was her second adoptive mother, Deidre Vellard. That woman took Glassred to her house in Upper City and raised her as her own daughter. Main problem was that Deidre was very stoic and closed woman, who tried to give her daughter better life, but did this through violent punishments and sometimes owners treat their dogs with more spoiling and care that Deire did with Glassred. But in the end Glassred became well-trained and educated girl and she even regretted a bit about killing her mother. That woman deserved respect Children: No. No. No. Glassred fears pregnancy and childbirth almost to the point of hysteria and the idea of becoming a mother can drive her to nausea. Pets: None.

I admit it, she's a walking disaster and enjoys that

My thoughts on... Web-Warriors 2015 (#6-11) "Spiders Vs."

My read through of Web-Warriors continues with the 2nd and final arc of this comic series; Tangled States. This arc deals with the fallout of the Electroverse arc. So after all of the electro's got trapped on Lady Spider's earth, the entire Web of Life and Destiny got all messed up. Strings are getting tangled with each other, causing worlds within the Spider-Verse to collide and merge. One of those worlds is the one home to Spider-Man Noir. He got some really interesting characterization and background info in the beginning of this arc. He's a super interesting character and it was quite intriguing to see how he views the world around him. It was really refreshing to see them make time and space for characterization instead of it just being plot all the time. The teams disconnect with each other also gets explored at the beginning of this arc, which was also a really good addition. They're all heroes in their own right, but they've never really worked together in a team. Most of them are used to working alone. Not to mention how most of them don't really know much about each other. It was cool that they explored that, and even cooler that they did it through the lens of Spider-Man Noir and how he sees the team. It was compelling to see his view on all of this and how it comes he's more of an outsider on this team. As the story progresses we meet Spider-Punk & Spider-Ham 2099, both are really fun characters although i wish they did more with Spider-Ham 2099. Spider-Punk & Spider-Gwen's dynamic was really fun, and it was cool to see them bond over music and their rebellous side. They don't get a lot of time to talk however as they fight against an army of metal ducks led by Ducktor Doom from Spider-Ham 2099's world (the Spider-Verse truly is something!) in Spider-Punk's world. This fight gets quickly interrupted as Spider-Punk's world collides with yet another one, this time one with ridiculous over the top mechs. In the meantime, Octavia Otto is trying to untangle the Web of Life and Destiny. She's a friendly doc ock who's part of the Young Avengers on her world. She's honestly a really cool character! As she tries to untangle the web in an effort to try and find Spider-UK and Mayday, (whom both went missing at the end of Electroverse) she accidentally sends all of the remaining Web-Warriors to different universes. It's cool because they get split up in really interesting teams. The team consisting of Spider-Man Noir, Spider-Man India & Spider-Ham was my favorite. Spider-Man Noir has certain opinions on Spider-Man India and them having to team up is a really great bonding moment for them. Spider-Gwen ended up in Spider-Ham's universe together with Spider-Ham 2099, this one was also really fun because of how ridiculous the universe is. The artstyle of the universe is also completely different which makes it super fun.

Meanwhile Spider-UK & Mayday are stuck on the world of Lady Spider, where the electro's are still trapped in a prison made out of conductive webs. However the electro's are escaping and Spider-UK & Mayday are in need of backup fast. They finally manage to make contact with Octavia Otto, but she can't seem to contact the other Web-Warriors due to the Web being tangled. So she decides to assemble her own team of Web-Warriors from other strands of the Spider-Verse. It's a really cool and hype moment to see her assemble all these different spider people. However due to the Web being tangled she struggles to find her way to the universe where Spider-UK & Mayday are. It's a really funny sequence as while the other Web-Warriors are stranded in different universes and trying to find a way out, she is constantly getting lost in different universes with like hundreds of spider peope following her. Eventually they manage to find Gwen & Spider-Ham 2099 and make their way to Spider-UK & Mayday. Their arrival with the entire spider army is incredibly hype and reminds me a lot of the portals scene in Avengers Endgame. The splash pages for it are also incredibly awesome. Eventually Spider-Girl & Spider-Punk also manage to arrive to help with the battle. Spider-Man Noir, Spider-Man India & Spider-Ham are dealing with a evil osborn variant who has merged onto Spider-Man Noir's earth. He learns of the web and decides to destroy it as he takes down both Spider-Man Noir & India. Eventually the others are able to defeat the electro's and the electro hivemind by Ben Parker Spider-Man uploading his conciousness to the hivemind. The team goes back to loomworld to save the Web from osborn and the day is saved. Furthermore the Web-Warriors have gained a lot more recruits! And that's where this comic series ends. I really liked this arc and i loved how well it tied in with the events of Electroverse. It was really cool to see a a bunch of new Spider-Man variants and even cooler to see them team up in the fashion of the final battle of Avengers Endgame. I really appreciated that there was some more focus on the individual characters in this rather than just the plot. Spider-Man Noir's characterization in particular was really good and super well done. This was a really fun read and I hope to see more of this team in the future. I really wouldn't mind Web-Warriors getting another comic series!

okay its on their verses pages but heres the fallout verse info for gundham and kaz uwu

Gundham: When the threat of nuclear war became inevitable, Hope’s Peak began placing their ultimates in vaults around the world with the hopes that their superior talents would help restore the world to its former glory in the furture. Those that did not agree were forced into their cryo pods, with Gundham being one of those that was unwilling unless his mother was saved as well. This was denied as they only had enough space and funding for the ultimates, and Gundham was put in his pod against his will after being knocked out with chloroform after his refusal. His Devas, which had been with him when he was rendered unconscious, snuck their way into his cryo pod before it was frozen and woke up along with him in the post-apocalyptic future. 

Wishing more for despair than reform, Junko sabotaged the Hope’s Peak vaults with the hopes that every class but her own would stay frozen indefinitely. With some vaults this was effective, with others the inhabitants simply awoke later or earlier than planned. Class 77-B was placed in vault 77 respectively, their own pods waking up staggered, with most of them being gone by the time Gundham awoke. Setting out to learn of this new world, he hopes to eventually find what exactly happened to his mother, if she perished like most, or if she somehow became a ghoul after the bombs dropped.

Misc Fallout notes:

Gundham can be written in any Fallout verse by simply changing the location in which his vault was placed by the school

He’s still rather ignorant to the wastelands, but seems to be adapting well with the overwhelming desire to survive. He still holds bitterness for what Hope’s Peak did however, and should he find any survivors of the vault program that were responsible for placing students in the pods, he may not react too kindly…

In this verse he is no longer a vegan, finding survival to be more important when food is so scarce, but he will still choose fruits and vegetables over meat whenever possible

He will either be written in a solo verse where he alone set out from the vault to search for information on his mother and this new world he now lives in, or he will be in a connected verse with my Kaz and his fallout verse.

In the joint verse, he and Kazuichi leave the vault together with their options limited and friends scarce. They hope to find information about their old classmates and Gundham’s mother, as well as help the inhabitants of the wasteland whenever they can. 

In this verse, Kazuichi fixes up an old bus they found to run on solar power, it being slow, but mobile. The interior has been modified as a living space, as well as a work area for Kaz, and a specialized kennel-like room at the back for any animals Gundham rescues.

Gundham nurtures the animals back to as good as health as he can despite the radiation, as well as studies what they once were and how they changed since his time. He then either releases them when he’s through with his work, or sells them for caps if it comes to brahmin, dogs, cats, etc. He also does health checks on animals in settlements and teaches their owners how to better care for them. 

In this verse, Kazuichi also builds Gundham a robot dog that he can bring into fights without the fear of it dying. It’s modeled after a generic mutt, and most of the time stays on the bus to protect it while he and Kaz are away. Despite being nothing but programed commands with a basic voice modulator collected from wasteland mutts, Gundham has taken to calling it Daisy his “hellhound”

His outfit consists of a vault 77 suit, his old coat, scarf, and other accessories such as his piercings and boots, all of which were put in vault storage after he was frozen, along with all his other classmate’s belongings. He doesn’t have his “scar” or makeup however, since that sort of thing isn't readily available in the wasteland, nor does he believe it important anymore. His hair is also styled without the curl, it simply falling in a messy shag that he tries to trim regularly

His way of speaking is also different, his old archaic way of speech mostly abandoned as he adjusts to this new world, Gundham not seeing much of a point in it anymore. He feels it’s important he learn to live in this new world, and that comes with the need of others understanding him instead of being deflected by his old way of pushing people away

His main weapon consists of a animal tranquillizer gun modified by Kaz, no matter if it’s his solo or joint verse as it’s obtained from vault storage, made to fire at deadly speeds, which can also be adjusted to a safer speed when he needs to just capture or knock something/someone out. The ammo is specialized reloadable tranquilizer darts that can be filled with poison, med-x, simple knockout fluid, and pretty much any liquid in a pinch. He wears the pre-filled, labeled vials hooked about his belt, and they only become “active” when loaded into the gun, where the needle is set upon closing the chamber. Extra fluid and vials are kept in his coat and travel pack

His melee weapon is a walking cane, something he uses to help traverse the world as well as to fight. He also keeps a switchblade in his boot as a backup, as well as a simple pipe pistol on his belt, also built by Kazuichi, that has been weighted and altered to Gundham’s preference for ease of use if he runs out of tranq darts or the situation calls for it

Kazuichi: When the threat of nuclear war became inevitable, Hope’s Peak began placing their ultimates in vaults around the world with the hopes that their superior talents would help restore the world to its former glory in the future. Those that did not agree were forced into their cryo pods, with Kazuichi being one of the ones that went willingly. He only really had his dad after all, as well as his classmates, and he’d much rather survive with the latter than die with the former.

Wishing more for despair than reform, Junko sabotaged the Hope’s Peak vaults with the hopes that every class but her own would stay frozen indefinitely. With some vaults this was effective, with others the inhabitants simply awoke later or earlier than planned. Class 77-B was placed in vault 77 respectively, their own pods waking up staggered, with most of them being gone by the time Kazuichui awoke. He was very reluctant to leave the vault, but with very little supplies and even fewer options, he set out for the nearest settlement in hopes of learning how to survive in this new world.

Misc Fallout Facts:

Kazuichi can be written in any Fallout verse by simply changing the location in which his vault was placed by the school

He is not adjusting very well at all, often paranoid by distant noises as well as haunted by the sights of monsters and disfigured animals as well as people. He’s still kind to the ghouls, but he often lives in fear with the thought that his father became one. What had once been the hopes of escape leading to a new future changed to a paranoia induced nightmare where he could show up at any time. 

Kazuichi often has nightmares and will only sleep in settlements unless he has a traveling companion. He trusts people even less than he used to with the state of things, however, and it may be hard to win him over

Whenever he’s in a settlement, he offers his mechanical expertise to its inhabitants for caps, and will occasionally find a robot to fix up and sell. Most robots however, he keeps for his own protection until they become too damaged to use, or someone offers him too many caps to refuse

Thanks to his love of nuka-cola, he manages to always have at least a handful of caps on him at all times, which is a nice change from his old life where money for food was never a sure thing

He will either be written in a solo verse where he alone sets out from the vault with the reluctant goal of learning to survive, or he will be in a connected verse with my Gundham and his fallout verse.

In the joint verse, he and Gundham leave the vault together with their options limited and friends scarce. They hope to find information about their old classmates and Gundham’s mother, as well as help the inhabitants of the wasteland whenever they can. 

In this verse, Kazuichi fixes up an old bus they found to run on solar power, it being slow, but mobile. The interior has been modified as a living space, as well as a work area for Kaz, and a specialized kennel-like room at the back for any animals Gundham rescues. 

In this verse, Kazuichi also builds Gundham a robot dog that he can bring into fights without the fear of it dying. It’s modeled after a generic mutt, and most of the time stays on the bus to protect it while he and Gundham are away. Despite being nothing but programed commands with a basic voice modulator collected from wasteland mutts, Kazuichi has noticed Gundham’s tendency to refer to it as Daisy his “hellhound” and will often do the same

His outfit consists of his old blue mechanic’s jumpsuit getup with a 77 plastered on the back overtop his symbol

Because hair dye isn’t readily available in the wasteland, Kaz’s hair starts to show his black roots over time, it only ever being redone every once in a blue moon when he can find the means to bleach it and alternative ways to color it, but it’s never as vibrant as it was before the vault. 

Makeup is something he tries to find regularly to feel normal again, and should he have eyeliner he will wear it

Contacts are also something he can’t obtain, Kazuichi now forced to wear his black square glasses that he found with his things in the vault's storage. They’ve been taped, glued, and melted back together multiple times and he’s always looking for someone to replace them

His main weapon is a junkjet he found in the vault's storage, it being modified by him to shoot with even more deadly force than it’s typical wasteland counterpart

His melee weapon is a 30 inch wrench he found in the vault that he keeps strapped to his belt

He also carries around a multitool and his old toolbox that was kept in the vault’s storage, which he uses to store various things alongside his travel pack

His backup gun is a pipe pistol modified for his specific use, though he only uses it when absolutely necessary

[asphodel-storm]

So. If Cobra Kai were DC.

First off, the man who is the source of most problems, John Kreese:

Kreese’s mentor was an agent of the League of Shadows/Assassins planted within the military. Kreese was invited to take his place after his death. He trained with Ra’s al Ghul after the war and then left to found Cobra Kai as a covert recruitment operation for the League (not every Cobra alum became an assassin, only the ones Kreese saw that potential in). Johnny was on the path to recruitment and it was the loss against Daniel and resulting fallout that changed that. Kreese has been on League business every time he’s been ‘dead’. 

Mr. Miyagi:

Mr. Miyagi was a Green Lantern. The ring chose him a while after he received his medal of honor and he was protecting the universe secretly during the Karate Kid movies. When Daniel overcomes his fear in TKK 3, Miyagi retires and the ring chooses Daniel.

Daniel LaRusso:

Daniel was a Green Lantern for years (a secret from everyone except Amanda and Miyagi), but the lantern’s power never replaced karate for him because karate is part of the balance that allows him to use the ring in the first place. The ring started to reject him during the period where his resentment of Johnny was overpowering his will (season 1-ish). It chose him again when he got a handle on that, but by then he had already turned his attention to teaching and empowering young people. He gave it up and it chose his daughter after she overcame her own fear at the end of season 3.

Samantha LaRusso

Samantha LaRusso was chosen by a Green Lantern ring after overcoming her fear and facing Tory at the end of season 3. She enters season 4 as a newly minted super hero. 

Tory Nichols 

Tory witnesses Sam as a Green Lantern early on. She has a lot of anger inside of her and seeing her rival - the girl who in her opinion was handed everything in life - chosen by cosmic power pushes her over the edge. Kreese encourages and feeds this anger, of course, though he does it with the intention of making Tory a better assassin. When a Red Lantern power ring chooses her that’s honestly a bonus. 

Johnny Lawrence 

Johnny was nearly recruited to the League of Assassins as a teenager - he would have been shipped off to official league training after highschool if he hadn’t lost to Daniel (and, likely, if Kreese hadn’t impulsively burned that bridge before remembering the larger plan). Instead, he was approached by the representative of an anonymous east coast billionaire after high school and paid to use his connection to the ‘late’ John Kreese  - and pre-assassin training - to infiltrate and sabotage some activities the League of Shadows had going in the Valley. He never learned the full extent of what the League was or his or Kreese’s connections to it during this time (like, he probably could have if he’d tried, but he’s Johnny). He was inconsistent at best in his vigilantism after that, putting on a mask and patrolling more when he needed an outlet than based on the needs of the community. He was briefly the ‘Batman of the Valley’ when Batman first franchised out into Batman Inc. He’d given that up for years by the time he met Miguel, but dusts off his cape when he learns of new League operations in the Valley in season 4 (likely being run by Terry Silver). 

His ‘cape’ is actually a red leather bodysuit. He definitely calls himself something like DeathFist or DeathFang or whatever in the long tradition of people in red bodysuits being called stuff like that (DeadShot, DeathStroke, etc.). 

Miguel Diaz

Miguel will hit the streets patrolling with his mentor, but the transition to vigilantism also hits him at a time when he’s realized he probably shouldn’t have Johnny on such a pedestal so he’ll also use the opportunity to strike out alone or with friends. The transition also comes at a time when Miguel has noticed certain changes about himself he can’t explain - like how he destroyed Demetri’s tv with lasers that shot out of his eyes when he got a bit too competitive about Mario Cart.

Yeah, the bad man Carmen moved them to escape was not connected to organized crime. He wasn’t Terry Silver. He was General freaking Zod. Why does General Zod live in Ecuador? He’s building up forces there. Anyways, Miguel is half Kryptonian and just awakening to his powers since his body has been healing from the school fight. The injury was a kind of catalyst and as he heals he’s also becoming invulnerable. So much for his rivalry with Robby, right? Nope, that’s still on. 

Robby Keene

Kreese thinks a mistake he made with Johnny was not bringing him into the fold sooner and getting him excited about the prospect of the League of Shadows. He knows very well that Robby will march out of Cobra Kai forever if he mentions anything about assassins before he’s ‘ready’, but he does start letting him know about the secret society of warriors and introduce him to some alumni who are with the league now. Maybe show off some missions where they actually intervened for good. Essentially, he makes him feel like he could be part of something - something that feels like family - which is bigger than himself (which is already an established part of his schtick). 

As part of this pre-assassin buttering up, Kreese procures something special for Robby - gloves laced with kryptonite. He told him it would only level the playing field between him and Miguel, but it is enough to weaken Miguel enough to be killed. The plan is for Robby to go in thinking ‘Miguel is pretty much indestructible even with these gloves’ so he goes all out and kills him and then while he’s dealing with the trauma of having killed him Kreese can pull him fully into the League. While the plan won’t work, the path to it will see Robby getting a lot more weapons/assassin-specific training than Johnny did.

He will eventually take over Johnny’s suit and code name.

Eli ‘Hawk’ Moskowitz

Kreese’s plan for Robby is a more elaborate and thought out version of his original plan for Hawk. Hawk was never really a top priority for Kreese, but he spiraled so nicely that it seemed he could be plucked off into assassin-dom early. He saw Tory and Robby as better prospects than Hawk for long term use in the valley in part because he expected to have Hawk shipped off to train under Lady Shiva by now. He just had to rip the murder bandaid, and the plan was to push him until he killed Demetri. 

Because Hawk was on the fast track, and because he was so good at convincing himself he didn’t care what he’d done to Demetri’s arm, Kreese actually already let him in on the true nature of Cobra Kai. He didn’t know for long before leaving and its not like he had any strategically vital info, but he knows enough to make him a loose end. Kreese sends the Cobras (minus Robby, but possibly including a Tory who isn’t quite used to her new power yet) after him. Hawk is murdered. And isn’t that a waste? 

Kreese set it up, but when the likes of Tory and Robby almost leave over it he pins it on Kyler ‘going overboard’ and says it’s fine, they can save him. Hawk gets thrown in a Lazarus Pit and rises confused and angry. Under the grips of Pit Madness he temporarily forgets a lot (like leaving Cobra Kai and reconciling with Demetri and Miguel, but also things like his parents. Kid is a very angry blank slate.) and since most people think he’s dead its pretty easy to send him to the League. He’ll turn up again a few months later, when the League sends a squad to secure their interests in the valley. He breaks off when he can’t quite kill Demetri in a fight, but he doesn’t remember why and roams around the valley causing trouble or helping out as he sees fit until Demetri can get through to him (Demetri’s eternal struggle). 

He doesn’t call himself Red Hood, but you get the gist. Hawk is already a code name. 

Demetri [Insert Surname]

Got Eli back only to lose him for good. He thought. Until Not-Red Hood shows up and causes problems. But the slippery assassin keeps getting away before he can really talk to him! Miguel is steadily developing Super Powers and wants to help, but things are also heating up over in the Main Conflict and Demetri is left chasing Hawk alone a lot of the time. 

Maybe it’s that determination that causes his latent metagene to activate. 

Demetri only ever thought super speed was the second best superpower, but he rethinks that after he has it. In hindsight, his smart ass does fit the speedster profile and Eli definitely can’t get away now! 

His lightning when he runs is blue.

And yep, that’s all for now. I’ll never write a fic for this ‘verse it’s just fun to think about. More so about how after the San Fernando branch of the League of Shadows is destroyed the kids can all make up and form a cool super team. Also, if I were to write fic, it would be Demeli. As I'm sure anyone I've interacted with in this fandom knows.

THE REDEMPTION ARC VERSE SET

or, verses five, five-a, and six. i'm writing a fanfic based on this verse set! the link can be found here.

verse summary: Instead of wheeling Tuba at the end of episode five, Simon saves her from falling off of the train. This sets off a massive domino effect that  leads to him questioning everything he’s ever known, having a fallout with Grace, and ultimately the disbandment of the Apex. After Grace leaves the train, he’s forced to set out on his own and find out the path he was meant to take from the start, and eventually must decide whether to leave or stay. - used for both infinity train canons and crossovers, but some verses in this set are used more for one than the other. - takes place across a very wide timespan. simon is 18-19 at the beginning, and by the end he's 21+.

the verse info for this one is complicated and long, and some of the details have changed since i originally wrote out the summary. a lot of this will vary from thread to thread and vary even further as the fanfic updates, but what i have for now is under the cut.

v5 | teamwork begins:

simon starts to warm up to tuba in the color clock car, and when the time comes, he chooses to save her instead of wheeling her. he realizes immediately after this what he's done, and starts to massively spiral due to it. attempting to backpedal, he tries to distance himself from the rest of the group.

the hazel-turtle reveal happens shortly after they meet amelia, due to a very vocal argument between grace and simon about tuba's fate. grace and simon are unable to come to a concrete answer about what they should do about tuba and hazel. however, they make the decision for them, and leave with amelia.

grace and simon return to the apex as planned, and try to go back to normal. however, grace hesitates to fully return to their normal routine. she initially tries to veil this as a break, but that break keeps spanning on for longer and longer, and simon eventually confronts her about it.

much to simon's shock, grace immediately decides to step down from the leadership position and pass it down to him. instead of taking his former position as second-in-command, she chooses to step down entirely.

due to his own conflicted feelings, and the fear that grace is going to leave him behind, simon vehemently refuses. this leads into the worst fight they've ever had, during which simon's number spirals drastically upwards. in the end, he runs away out of impulse.

he chooses to go to samantha, his only source of advice. but he's attacked on the gangway outside of her car by a ghom. thankfully, she hears the commotion, and comes to his rescue. both of them are injured in the fray, though samantha's wounds are far more serious.

though she ultimately survives, her close brush with death is enough to force simon to fully come to terms with his changing feelings about denizens, and that he's never hated samantha as much as he wanted to. and over the course of the following conversation, she slowly helps him to realize the flaws in the rest of the apex's ideals as well.

he chooses voluntarily to stay a few days with samantha, partially to make sure that she's okay, and partially to prepare himself to confront grace. eventually, he returns to the mall car, and the two of them do their best to sort out what to do from there.

ultimately, they come to the decision that the best course of action is to disband the apex.

over the following months, the apex children gradually leave either on their own pursuits, or get off the train while still staying in the mall car. eventually, grace and simon are left alone again.

but grace's number has been dropping far more rapidly than simon's, and the time comes for her to get off the train not long after. though neither of them want to be separated, they know she has to leave while she has the chance. so, she does.

v5a | looking back is blinding:

simon stays in the mall car alone for several weeks after grace leaves, trying to hang on to the little that's left of his old life. but he soon realizes that staying there is hurting him more than it's helping, and sets out on his own journey across the train.

as time goes on, he grows more comfortable helping other passengers, though he's still wary of interacting too much with denizens. he holds nothing against them anymore, but carries a lot of guilt due to his actions while with the apex.

this is where i run out of major plot points. everything in here is pretty much a grey area. overall though, this part deals greatly with simon coming to terms with the loss of his old life, making amends for his actions where he can, and deciding what he wants to do from now on.

this whole process takes give or take 2 years, at which point his number finally hits zero, and he leaves the train.

v6 | dawn of a new era:

finally off the train, simon is struggling to readjust to the outside world. he initially tries to seek out his sister, marilyn, but finds out that she disappeared a few years after he did. he spends about a year in his old hometown, but isn't really comfortable there. so he moves away as soon as he's able to.

i imagine he eventually runs into grace, either by coincidence or via seeking her out.

bonus: what he looks like at this point, via this picrew!

v; fallout 4 companion 

October 23, 2077:  The world ends.  The East and West bomb one another into annihilation, the government retreats into the safety of their oil rigs, an awol group of soldiers form their own little militant survival group, the vaults seal well below their maximum capacity, and the rest are left to loot, riot, panic, and either ghoulify or die in the leftover chaos.

Not everyone dies.  It isn’t a, “and then all was silent,” situation.  More people scrambled and panicked than tried to keep the peace, but those not caught in the immediate area of the bombs survived - at least for a time.  Tony Stark is one of those people.  Something he should have seen but hasn’t, is the buffering effect of his arc reactor, which keeps him in a stasis all its own.  It keeps his heart beating, it keeps the shrapnel out of his heart, it keeps the ambient radiation neutralized.  He survives.

And survives.

And eventually lives long enough to see settlements begin to form again in the New York wasteland, begins to establish his own, help connect them in a network of security and exchange.  Sees, on a smaller scale, his goals for things like clean energy start to come to life in making the post-war world he finds himself living in as comfortable as possible.  His own technology advances, not through his most-used fix on fail method of testing, but through simulations, calculations, long years of ruminations that are carefully weighed and considered before he acts, because resources are scarce and there are some changes he’s making the he knows he can’t take back if he goes through with them.  Errors are checked for, the math checked and rechecked a hundred times, all while the vaults open and people begin once more to strive for some semblance of life in a place that’s far removed from the one before the bombs.

And he’s content that way.  He’s busy.  He’s occupied and making a difference somewhere, until a group of power armored soldiers pass New York a little too slow in their cosplay of the Hindenburg and he decides that, with New York as stable as he can personally make it, it’s time to branch out and see what else is out there, following them into the Commonwealth just in time to hear their “do not interfere” speech.  He doesn’t have an intention to stay, but plans have a way of going awry, at the worst of times.

technical info ;;

Tony comes as his own free agent to the Commonwealth to investigate the Brotherhood of Steel.  From his position in New York, he’s heard rumors from passing caravans both coming from DC and leaving Boston, but rumors are rumors, and he wants solid, verifiable facts, because their crawl past New York was too slow for his own liking.  He’s been alive long enough in the wasteland that he, like everyone else that lives there, is much less trusting than he originally would have been.  He’s suspicious, can be cagey, paranoid, and above all, take an us vs. them mentality when it comes to anyone that displays violent tendencies, such as raiders.

He doesn’t go by Iron Man - if you put that one together it’s probably because it’s been a dire situation, and he’s used the suit.  He doesn’t do that often anymore.  Instead, he picks up the moniker Handyman from various settlements, or the Mechanic.  Or he’s just plain old Tony.  He’s learned the value of keeping certain things close to the vest, and doesn’t hand out personal details like candy to just anyone anymore, and he’s not exactly a public figure.

His primary goals in the Commonwealth are gaining info about the Brotherhood of Steel, and will grow to finding out more about the Institute, Railroad, and Minutemen, as he starts to put together pieces to see there’s a bigger picture in front of him.  It’s because he’s insatiably curious, nosy, and likes to put his thumb in pies it probably doesn’t belong in, because he’s a busybody.  The Minutemen gain him as an ally, as, outside of a SoSu, he’ll put together settlements (eventually) of his own, because he can’t help himself.  The Railroad does good work, but he’s not interested in joining, and they don’t want him.  He’s too loud, too direct, and even if he did get Black Ops training from SHIELD, he doesn’t use it in a way that would be conductive to the Railroad’s goals. 

His main bases are: Fort Hagen:  This he cleans up after the SoSu has their Kellogg-killing rampage and turns it into a lab.  The town around he spruces up and makes ready for settlement...Further down the line.  He’ll start with the ones in Fort Hagen at first, but he’ll also rebuild and reprogram Gen 1 and 2 synths in Commonwealth, building a ground force of the Iron Legion.  Waste not, want not, you know how it goes.  The same goes for unclaimed power armor, he’ll snag that, as well, and any assaultrons, protectrons, and other robots he can get his hands on.  He’ll gripe about the wiring and coding of General Atomics and RobCo, but he’ll strip them clean and use them as a case to do his own work. Cambridge Polymer Labs:  If anyone’s going to get this place workable in seriousness again, it’s definitely him.  Will wander along and find it either with or without the SoSu (depending on if a SoSu is in play and if they mess with the quest there or not).  This will be Lab #2, with no settlement outside.  This is the one he keeps quiet and private.

He also has various boltholes he’ll establish throughout the Commonwealth, but you gotta be a VIP to know where they are.

He mostly hangs around Goodneighbor, out of the larger settlements.  He’s got a good rapport with Daisy and KLEO and prefers to trade with them over Myrna in Diamond City, and he barely glances Bunker Hill’s way because of how the raiders are paid off.  Otherwise, the best place to run into him are prewar industrial ruins.  He’s always picking them over for resources.

He favors energy weapons over ballistic weapons, but he can use either.  Wouldn’t say no to a power fist, either.

IMPORTANT TO NOTE:  If RJ MacCready has NOT been romanced or picked up as a companion by a SoSu, Tony directly defaults to the romantic relationship he has with @gwinnetts‘s MacCready, especially if there’s no expectation of shipping with the other character in play.  This is not a thing that’s set in complete stone, but Mala and her Mac have been instrumental in helping me hammer this whole verse out, so extracting Mac out of it isn’t impossible, but will require some plotting.  Note:  I don’t mind doing that plotting.  It also means that Tony isn’t unwooable - he is.  Just if nothing is initially discussed with this verse, that’s where he directly defaults to.

(The short version is Tony runs into Mac fairly early on in his time in the Commonwealth for information on the Gunners.  MacCready sees Tony is a possible cash cow because if you don’t think Tony uses his math brain to hustle at pool in the Third Rail, you’re wrong.  Shit happens.  Feelings happen.  Whoops, there’s attachment.  He helps Mac get Duncan to the Commonwealth.  They’re a ridiculous family with a grumpy merc, a reckless superhero, and a cute af kid.  The end.  Also thus why I say if he hasn’t been taken as a companion and max affinity reached, because there’s a rewriting of Mac’s whole questline in play there.)

Obviously the above does not count if threads are with a different MacCready.  I mean.  /props on elbow  /leans closer  Unless you wanna do a thing.  /waggles eyebrows  Especially since Mac is a good foil for Tony, but hey.  Just throwing that option out there.

Verses

Basic Info.

Name: Punk

Age: 28

Pronouns: She/They/It

Don’t Starve

Height: 6’3

Species: Cordellian / Alien, Cyborg

Occupation: Former Engineer / Lab Assistant

Powers: Foresight, Possession

Enlisted once in the army of her homeworld, Temua Silsuth lived a relatively mundane life until she suffered a terrible accident while on the job. Temua Silsuth as she had been known previously was declared dead, though no corpse was recovered by the military at the scene.

Instead her mangled body was found by Robert Ivo Wagstaff, who utilized his technological knowledge to reconstruct her. With no memory of her past or the woman she used to be, Temua Silsuth took on the name of Punk and assumed a place serving as R.I.W’s laboratory assistant. 

After several months, she was sent into the Constant to record data and locate a missing probe previously sent by Wagstaff. However, she has discovered that she prefers the Constant much more than the lab, and she plans to stay where she is. She now roams the Constant, clad in full gear in order to hide her identity, exploring as she pleases to witness the wonders of an entirely new world.

Sea of Thieves

Height: 6’3

Species: Human, Cyborg

Occupation: Pirate

Powers: Foresight, Possession

Temua grew up in the port town of Baltimore, Maryland, raised alongside her brother by their fathers who ran the family fishing business. However, the business began to falter, and her father Uriel left for the Sea of Thieves in search of money to send home when Temua was only four. Uriel never returned, and Temua grew to hate him. Many years later, when Temua was eighteen, her other father left in search of Uriel as well, Temua choosing to stay behind for the sake of her older brother.

Eventually, Temua turned to a life of crime to ensure that she and her sibling would get by, despite her brother’s protests to this lifestyle. Tension soon boiled into an argument, and Temua made the decision to follow in the footsteps of her parents.

Temua and her ship never made it through the tear in the Devil’s Shroud in one piece. What was left was picked up by the Servant of the Flame themself, who brought the remains back to the Reaper’s Hideout to experiment with the merging of dark magic, technology, and the human body.

The result of this experimentation was the cyborg known as Punk, the Reaper’s Heart, with no recollection of her history before the Sea of Thieves, much to the Servant’s dismay. She was trained to survive on the Sea, whilst honing her newfound capabilities, for some time.

Though, in time, Punk turned on fellow Reapers and defected, dropping her previous title for the one of Iron Heart, and living her life freely upon the waves.

Fallout

Height: 6’3

Species: Ghoul / Mutant

Occupation: Raider

Powers: Foresight

Like many girls her age at the time, Temua lived a fairly unremarkable life before the war. She attended school, she learned from one of her fathers to cook, clean, and attend to household duties as would be expected of her when she was older. 

She was nineteen when the bombs fell, and her entire life was destroyed so quickly and so easily. She had been home alone, and lucky enough to have been fetching supplies from the cellar and thus spared from the worst of the blast- though she could only assume her family was not so lucky.

She learned quickly not to trust strangers, and that she could only depend on herself for survival in what was left of the world she had once known. However, over time, exposure to radiation and improper gear left Temua mutated into something she would later find was known as a Ghoul. Left with eternity to do as she pleased, Temua began to study robotics, scouring for any information she could find with the goal to build herself a protector, no matter what it took to get her hands on what she needed.

A series of injuries, limb losses, and replacements with cybernetics of her own design over the next few hundred years had left Temua a far cry from the girl she had once been. She took on the name Punk to better fit into her new life, and has since settled into what she considers to be her role in the Wasteland.

Ghost Rider

Height: 6’3

Age: 19

Species: Human, once

Occupation: Ghost Rider, Vigilante

Powers: Speed, Strength, and Resistance, Regeneration, Foresight, Pyrokinesis

Temua “Punk” Silsuth was raised by her fathers alongside her brother Dominik in the desert city of Las Vegas, Nevada. Her father Uriel was killed when she was four, and she and her brother were left in the care of their other father, Horatio. 

Temua grew into a rebellious and angry teenager with a grudge seemingly against the world itself. She was prone to starting fights and getting into trouble, often coming home with some new injury at least once a week despite her family’s insistence that she steer clear of the people and places encouraging her bad habits and poor temper.

Punk took to going by her nickname, and street racing to fuel her need for rebellion. It was during one such race that her motorcycle was sabotaged, the brake lines cut. Though this accident should have killed her, miraculously, Punk walked away that day without a scratch.

At least, nothing visible.

She had been given a second chance by an otherworldly entity, on the terms that she would roam as the next Ghost Rider and make right for the wrongs done in her life, though she could never return to her family in her new state, as she could not return to a human form.
