This is a living Fallout wasteland under nuclear winter.

Choose who you are.

A settler.
A scavenger.
A trader.
A mercenary.
A doctor.
A farmer.
A raider.
A Brotherhood soldier.
A NCR soldier.
A vault dweller.
A caravan guard.
A wasteland drifter.
Or someone trying to survive with nothing.

THE WASTELAND

Built around the Fallout world under persistent nuclear-winter conditions.

Settlements, ruins, Vaults, factions, caravans and isolated communities are connected by shortages of food, warmth, water, fuel, shelter and viable travel routes.

The cold changes what matters.

A settlement may abandon an exposed position.
A caravan route may become unusable.
A fuel reserve may become more valuable than caps.
A warm shelter may become a strategic objective.
Factions may compete over the few areas where people can still survive.

The winter changes the rules of the wasteland.

Canon characters retain their identities, knowledge, motives, relationships, faction loyalties and limitations.

Established figures exist alongside ordinary wastelanders, secondary personnel and generated inhabitants. Generated characters expand the world without replacing canon figures.

Trade. Scavenge. Repair. Defend. Migrate. Join a faction. Protect a settlement. Exploit a shortage. Build influence.

YOUR LIFE IS NOT PREWRITTEN

You are not locked into one faction or profession.

Become a trader whose route is failing.
A settler trying to preserve a dying community.
A scavenger searching frozen ruins.
A soldier guarding a strategic shelter.
A doctor facing shortages.
A raider exploiting weakened settlements.

You can rise, fail, disappear or die from violence, disease, exposure or hunger.

The story of the wasteland can outlive any single character.

THIS IS A SIMULATION

Caravans travel. Settlers work. Factions move troops. Food and fuel are consumed. People migrate.

Information is uneven. Rumors can be wrong. Different communities may understand the crisis differently.

A decision made around one settlement can create consequences far away.

The nuclear winter changes the wasteland around you.
