Summary
Descending hundreds of feet underground as sirens shattered her American Dream, Evangelina Ward believed Vault 111 would secure her family a future. Instead, it stole it from them.
Held captive in a twisted cryostasis experiment, she could only watch as strangers brutally murdered her husband and kidnapped her son.
Two hundred and ten years after the skies burned orange, Eva resurfaces into a lawless, destitute husk of a world.
Haunted by her failures and desperate to keep the past buried, she carves her own path through the wasteland in search of her son. Guided by compassion and a fierce sense of justice, she forges alliances and friendships as she rises through the ranks of its most notorious factions.
But as they say—the higher the climb, the harder the fall.
When allies become enemies and trust turns to betrayal, Evangelina faces the toughest decision of her life.
Will she build the legacy she always dreamed of, or succumb to the one lurking in her blood?

Summary
She had to run. She had to survive.
And once she tastes freedom, she can’t go back to the Vault that spent years trying to “fix” her.The Wasteland is too loud, too bright, too terrifying—but she’s determined. Even if she has to stim through firefights and info-dump her way out of raider camps. Then she crashes straight into MacCready: a snarky merc who thinks she’s a psycho… right up until he doesn’t. Their partnership should never work. It works anyway.
But the Vault doesn’t give up its secrets—or its experiments—without a fight.

Summary
In post-Institute Sanctuary, uneasy merc MacCready awaits his son's cure while his brooding neighbor Paladin Danse (freshly outed as synth) clings to routine and intense observation.
Awkward garden chats turn to joint patrols, rad-storm confessions, raider fights, and possessive tensions. From obsession to first kiss, codependency to connected homes and Duncan's gleeful arrival. Two scarred soldiers forge family and purpose.

Summary
What if MacCready and Curie's questlines intersected? What if Curie wasn't another white woman companion who's just too innocent for her own good and has to be protected? What if Duncan's rare disease wasn't one-off & made up on the go just for tragic effect, and had definite, more grounded, developed lore about it? How would a care-giving mercenary with egoist views, and a less socialized doctor with a altruistic outlook mix? Would they meet in the middle, or is it an obvious mismatch?

Summary
Female Sole Survivor, Gladen Reed (formerly Gladen Smith in 2077), exits Vault 111 to find the world irrevocably changed. Unsure of how to proceed, the pre-war woman seeks out an identity upon the Wasteland, motivated by survival and closure. At first, it seems the only hostiles to face against on the Commonwealth are creatures such as ghouls, bloatflies and the occasional Raider. Unfortunately, that is not the case. Not everyone has the interests of others at heart, and Gladen will have to decide how best to deal with the ruthless nature of a selfish world.
Joining up with The Brotherhood seems the most logical step. However, it gets complex as feelings arise for her commanding officer. As time goes on, it becomes difficult to determine if what they're fighting for is really the right thing to do. A moment of betrayal changes everything, creating an entirely new chapter to navigate.

Summary
There's a vault dweller from a vault up north setting up settlements and causing a stir in the commonwealth.

But no one knows his true intentions.

Summary
In a radiation-ravaged wasteland, the synth V-7 emerges from a broken past and finds herself thrust into a hostile present. Driven by a fierce survival instinct and accompanied by the Watchers, whose connections she gradually discovers, she wanders through the ruins—hunted, but also drawn, by forces beyond her control.
Between bloody battles, ambiguous encounters, and decisions that gradually shape her humanity, she goes beyond the simple idea of survival : she becomes something, someone.
The question remains: what—and at what cost ? Is she really guided by her choices or by what has been programmed into her, hidden deep within ?(Started in 2009, right after Fallout 3, with my character that I called "my NPC" XD -it seems like so many lifetimes ago-... Between different versions, more than 200 pages in the "to finish" folder, here's what's come out of it, so far...)

Summary
Between her military service and her complex family life, Elle Douglas found herself almost uniquely qualified to survive in The Commonwealth’s wasteland - at least as far as Vault 111 residents went. But now, almost a full year after rising from cryogenic stasis and the horror that befell her young family as a result of the war, Elle finds herself on the verge of breaching The Institute and changing her entire life yet again.
Beyond that, the Brotherhood of Steel is beginning to disintegrate around her. The dissolution of her relationship with the organization is forcing her to make choices she never thought she'd make, pursue opportunities she never thought she'd have, and maybe even fall in love with a man who she never thought she would.

Summary
Bentley Price had always considered themselves lucky until the bombs fell. In the blink of an eye everything they'd held dear was taken away and they were left in the wastes of the Commonwealth. But strength takes many shapes. Tears and panic attacks won't keep them from hunting down the man that took away their family.
And, if their luck holds, they'll be able to make a new future for themselves from the wreckage of the old world.

Summary
She was a legend once. Settlements defended, slaves freed, clean water flowing through a wasteland on the brink. But he remembers her differently, as the patient mentor who once taught him chess while he was being molded into a leader. She was too young to carry the weight of the wasteland. He was only a boy when they placed command on his shoulders. Then she vanished, leaving behind nothing but ghosts and whispers.
Now, clinics rise from the ruins. Blue tape stretched across broken thresholds like law. No weapons. No allegiances. No questions. Only healing. A nameless doctor builds them one by one, even as she searches for the key to making her impossible dream a reality. But the Institute’s shadow looms, and its secrets stand in her way.
He swears to save humanity from technology; she swears to save it from itself. What began as a boy’s quiet crush sparks into something far more dangerous, even as the savior of the Capital Wasteland takes up her fight again. She never wanted to be a legend. But legends don’t ask permission. Legends are made, one story, one battle, one strip of blue tape at a time.
Updates Mondays.

Summary
This was initially supposed to be a one shot with Nora talking to Nick on top of her house in Diamond City during Christmas after the events of Far Harbor, but my brain couldn't leave it at that and decided to go full on into a whole story for it. Deacon should be romanceable, that is all. lol

Deacon never really recovered from the trauma of his captivity and torture at the hands of the Brotherhood of Steel. He kept his game face on (he was good at that), but keeping away the nightmares and flashbacks was becoming increasingly difficult.
He had decisions to make.
