OOC MINGLE POST

Greetings and welcome to The Shimmer! We hope you're excited for horror and the pleasant experience of bonding with your fellow explorers! But before we head off into what definitely isn't certain doom, let's get to know each other!
Feel free to use this post to introduce yourselves as players and the wonderful characters you're bringing in for this adventure! Gush about your canons, your characters, how much everyone is going to suffer, whatever! You can leave your contact information as well, so everyone can stay up to date on what their expedition buddies are up to!
It also might be prudent to get to know your factionmates and sort out what your characters have been up to, if anything! This is not required, but it's definitely something you can do if you so choose!
Welcome to the game and have fun, the Shimmer awaits.

Hey guys, it's Nin! I'm bringing in Nick Valentine from Fallout 4. He's a combatant who was brought in by an independent contractor.
For faction mates, Nick was probably helping everyone without combat experience learn how to safely fire a gun. And also making plenty of jokes about being a robot if people stared at him for long enough. Like a lot of jokes. A third of everything that came out of his mouth was a joke, jokes.
For those of you who are unfamiliar with him, Nick Valentine is The Best Fallout 4 Companion™, being a sassy robot detective who has made a name for himself across the Commonwealth, the post-apocalyptic remnants of Boston.
He's always wanting to do the right thing, always defending people who need the help, and make sure that even if there are plenty of people out there who might not trust him as a synth, he's helping them out, because what Nick cares about more than anything is doing what he thinks is best.
...He's also actually kind of a huge mess, because his entire personality is based on the brain scans of a man who died 200 years ago, whose brain was scanned as part of his PTSD treatment after his fiancee was brutally murdered by a mobster. But of course, as much as Nick would like to pretend that this doesn't matter at all, it's a human who died a very long time ago who formed his personality, but Nick tracked down the mobster who had survived by turning himself into a ghoul,( which is not the race from Tokyo Ghoul, but a horrifying way of not dying after being exposed to tons of radiation by ending up looking like a zombie) in order to continue being a bad guy.
With the help of the Sole Survivor, he was able to track the mobster down and kill him in revenge, which... probably doesn't bode well for Nick's mental health, but heeey details.
As for the Lone Survivor, he was approached by a woman named Nora who asked him for help tracking down her husband's murderer, and son's kidnapper. She just had to rescue him first, no big deal. It was actually pretty impressive.
He comes from the ending of the main quest, where the Lone Survivor has sided with the Railroad and decided the best way to handle everything is to nuke the Institute, because that sure makes sense, thanks Bethesda.
I think I have almost everyone added, but for the handful that I might not have on plurk, feel free to add me at

Since Eizen's in his group, poor Nick probably had to deal with Eizen's Shitty Luck With Guns (And Everything Else) so sorry about that in advance........ He'd be very interested in learning more about Nick though!! What the heck is a robot, please tell him everything about you and your world, he's fascinated.

Hope you enjoy a lot of long stories, Eizen!!
And also Nick probably made a lot of jokes about the guns.
...so many jokes.

and lmao he's used to magilou, terrible jokes are something he can tolerate........

She'll pull back and try and be respectful, though, gosh that's invasive, sorry! She's just very interested and wants to get to know him better.

For pregame CR, Heinwald would be so intrigued by Nick. A mechanical golem with sentience?! Fascinating. Plus they're fellow detectives, so that's a huge bonus too. They could share some previous cases or something if that's something Nick is into.

...He's got so many cases he could talk about. Hell yeah!
