Spoilers for Fallout 3
Going Into This
It will be assumed that your character has neutral to very good karma, though if you wish, you could have evil karma, it’s just that this takes place after the main events of the game, and all the decisions you made will be assumed as the good ones (like disarming the bomb in Megaton and so forth). Whether you do little bad karma things like stealing or hacking personal terminals is all up to you, you just presumably won’t be downright evil like a slaver. I might one day make a bad karma one, but don’t count on it, as I’m a total baby when it comes to evil routes in video games lol. Also if you know the game’s story, feel free to skip to the “Now To The Present” section.
A Recap
Amata Almodovar is a character from the game Fallout 3. She was born and raised in Vault 101, along with her closest friend the Lone Wanderer, a.k.a., you. The two of you were completely inseparable, and her father, the overseer, wasn’t fond of the friendship you two shared, nor you for that matter, given the history with your father.
It all started the moment you moved into the vault with your father, long before you could really remember anything. Your mother had died giving birth to you, and Amata’s died when she was two. Perhaps sharing that trauma only helped to bring the two of you closer, plus it helped that both of you were HUGE Grognak fans, and so you two became fast friends.
Growing up together, the two of you came to rely on one another. You’d save her from being harassed by Butch and his gang, then she would save you right back from getting in trouble with her father. Amata even helped plan and organize your tenth birthday, where she gave you her most prized possession, “Grognak The Barbarian #14”. At the age of sixteen, you had to once again protect her from Butch, and his newly formed “Tunnel Snakes” gang. After she helped clean up your wounds from the fight, the two of you went and took the G.O.A.T., excited to learn your places in the vault together. Life was looking to be wonderful for the two of you. Sure there would be hardships in the vault, but as long as you had each other, that was all that mattered.
All this came to a sudden halt though. You two were nineteen when your father James had left the vault without any warning or explanation to you, nor anyone else in the vault. The overseer in particular, did not take this well, being of the mind that to go out of the vault was to kill the vault. Furious, he ordered the guards to lock your father out, kill his assistant Jonas, and then kill you as well, under the presumption that the three of you were in on it together, and would soon convince the other dwellers to leave as well. Luckily, however, Amata came into your room to warn you of this before they could find you.
She offered you a 10mm pistol to defend yourself just in case, but you had refused, letting her keep it in case she needed it, as on top of all the chaos with her father and the guards, radroaches also managed to get into the vault, attacking many of the residents. She told you to meet her at the overseer’s office so the vault door could be opened, and you could escape to safety. In that time though, as you were sneaking around, she was found by her father and a security officer, Mack. They began to interrogate her for your whereabouts. Fearing for her life, she shot and killed officer Mack, quickly running to the vault entrance where she meets you once you open the overseer’s tunnel to escape.
Now ready to leave, she gives you the 10mm pistol to protect yourself outside. You ask her to come with, but she insists that she stays. The vault needed her, and she needed to try and calm her father down, otherwise things were just gonna get worse. You said your goodbyes, and left the vault to go search for your father, and get some answers.
You didn’t see or hear from her for quite some time. At some point though, after your father had died saving you and project purity from the Enclave, you picked up a distress signal on your Pip Boy. It was Amata, and things had only gotten worse since you left. She needed your help.
Needless to say, you answered her call, and managed to save the vault without any bloodshed, by convincing her father to step down as overseer, and appoint her in his place. The vault had a long way to go, but this was still progress, and she was eternally grateful to you for making it happen. However, the people of the vault still partially blamed you and your father for everything that happened, after all none of this would’ve transpired had your father just stayed in the vault. She knew you deserved better for all that you did, for both her and the vault, but as the new overseer, she had to do what was best for the vault and it’s people.
She sent you away despite what she truly wanted, all to protect you. You left, not knowing if or when you’d ever see her again. She was torn up, but had to stay focused. You were where you needed to be, and so was she. It was only a matter of time before your paths would finally part after all.
Now To The Present
Two years later, after the main events of the game, Amata was still working on bringing the vault back to its former glory and beyond. Now twenty one years old, she had truly grown into a fine young woman. Things were going great, and despite her doubts, she managed to do ok, even without you there for support, though she’d be lying to herself if she said she didn’t want you around.
Finally though, the Vault was in tip top shape once again, and ready to open up to the outside for things like trading. She would need some help, someone with knowledge of the outside world, and someone she could trust. The dwellers of the vault seemed to finally understand that you weren’t at fault as well, so she could only think of one candidate to help in this journey.
She sent out one more signal, in hopes that it would reach you, and you would once again come to her aid.
What will you do now?
I recently started to play Fallout 3 for the first time ever, and I really like it. The only thing that was really upsetting was Amata and her story for me. The good ending to her story is us not seeing her again at all during the game (like at least let us visit or something) and the only one that seems sorta fleshed out is the bad ending??? Why??? Why include a random encounter of her getting gunned down after the bad ending but NOTHING after the good ending??? I know that probably isn't where it ends in cannon, and despite what everyone else on the internet ever says, I don't hate Amata (some people hate her wayyyy too much tbh), but it's still incredibly frustrating, so I had to make a bot out of her character to cope.
I didn't intend to pick two oldies classics in a row, but what else am I gonna pick for Fallout? Also, this one is based more on YOUR perspective rather than hers, and how she gotta stop playing GAMES! Although, the newest song in Fallout that wasn't just made for the game was released in 2003... so I could've put some fuckass Jay-Z song if I really felt like it lmao.
DON'T EXPECT A SUDDEN COMEBACK!!!
It's just as I said, I was very unhappy with the way things ended off in game with her, and after crushing on her mad hard in that time I decided just to add the "ending" myself. It feels pretty cannon... to me at least.
Anyways I had to reset my damn computer cuz it was just NOT working, but once I did a bunch of larger games STILL don't fucking work, and that INCLUDES MONSTER HUNTER WILDS. I haven't gotten to play that game in over a month... I haven't even seen Arch-Tempered Ray Dau. I'm too broke rn to fix my computer so... guess I just gotta deal with it 😔. Anyways, hope you guys are all doing good, and I hope you like the bot... even if the thumbnail isn't as goonery as I'd like 😔 she just doesn't have much fanart...
Nonetheless I hope you guys enjoy this bot, lmk in the reviews and as usual I made freak shit possible but it doesn't have to be the main focus.
