Fallout 3 Mods: Quantum Gravity – Scribe Jones and Knight Casilla

Some bonus scenes for the Quantum Gravity mod. Scenes in Fallout are triggered by proximity. Random NPCs will target another, say hello and goodbye, and then go on their separate ways. They didn’t happen enough for my liking, however, so I also put in some trigger boxes in the cell that will force them to start. In case you miss them, here are a few, with Ash Eluned as Scribe Hammond, J.T. Decker as Scribe Jones, and Jessica Osborne as Knight Casilla.

Fallout 3 Mods – Chinese Propaganda Radio

One of the things I love about Fallout is its utter lack of seriousness. This is a game that is set in an apocalyptic wasteland, mind you, but the last thing new players should expect is a Cormac McCarthy novel. From the monsters to the robots to the radio, it’s pure pulp. The Road less traveled.

As you may know, a lot of the satire is based on the politics of the day. And it most definitely is satire. That’s why my initial reaction to the vanilla Chinese Propaganda Radio was to laugh, the same way I laughed when I heard President Eden. I didn’t agree with Bethesda’s choice to put on such a thick accent, because the real Tokyo Rose spoke with perfect clarity, but I get the need to sell the character as foreign. I think Jessica Osborne does a much better job here of selling that fact without resorting to PEACE RUVING PEOPRE OF CHINAH like the vanilla actor.

I haven’t decided whether to make this a station that’s only part of The Free and the Pure, as opposed to one you can access at any time like Enclave Radio. We shall see.

Fan Art – Duraz by 324b21

Here is some fan art of Duraz by 324b21, looking fabulous in her red carpet dress. Naturally, you want to accessorize your evening wear with some bracelets and perhaps a sword of some kind, regardless of whether it fits in your purse.

Really though, Duraz does seem like the type to experiment with dresses and such and be totally tsundere about the whole thing. That’s why she’s looking at you askance, to see if you’re judging or admiring. Choose wisely.
