I'll definately go hardcore right off the bat. As for karma, I think I'll go the Two-face route. Any major choice I have will be based on a coin toss. Smooth side good, scared side bad. So I guess that will depend on who I'm with, NCR or CL. For weapons I think I'll go with the .357 Revolver and AR.

I love the Darvey Hent idea. Hopefully there'll be a way for you to get half of your face scarred up. Perhaps a trait? "Two-Faced: You are very ugly, but terrifying; your Speech skill is 10 points lower in negotiations, but 10 points higher when you are being intimidating or lying."

As for my character, I always make a gas mask-wearing pyromaniac (both the perk and in his actual in-character love of burning and blowing up things) as my main guy. Thinks he's a real-life Prometheus, re-lightning the torch of civilization, as it were. Odd that he calls himself Surtr, then, the Norse god of fiery armageddon. Crazy wasteland assholes...

Name: Jack Off

Age: 25

Sex: Male

S=7, P=8, E=4, C=7, I=6, A=4, L=4

Tag Skills: Speech, Small Guns, Medicine.

I love gambling and surviving so thats what I'll do with my 2 files.

Tagged Skills: Small guns, Speech, Sneak

Weaponry:

Any sort of silenced and scoped rifle

Virgin mary pistol (I'm not religious or anything but still, that pistol looks pretty cool)

Machete

Armor:

That special looking leather armor you see the Courier wearing in the previews (the armor worn by the courier when he aint wearing the vault suit)

Something like a cowboy hat

Sunglasses

I'm gonna play it all stealthy and such, I heard that you will be able to disguise yourself as people from other factions so lets take a simple scenario to understand how I will approach things:

Goal: Assassinate the leader of say... a raider camp. I would use these steps:

1. Find a spot where I can see most of the camp and see how the guards patrol while not being spotted.

2a. Find a good sniper post (probably where I got a good look at the camp) and, using the scope of my sniper, find the leader.

2b. Carefully approach a guard who strays from the rest without being seen and quietly take him/her out and put their uniform on to disguise yourself amongst the guards.

3a. Snipe the guy and get outta there.

3b. (If its possible) Get the leader away from the others by persuading him to follow you to check something out through speech or something then...well, you can tell where it goes from there... Or, approach, poison (its possible), and leave. Keep an eye on him using the sniper post until you know he is going down.

As you can see, I'm gonna be kinda like a "Ninja Sniper" or something like that.

Name:Brad Robert Williams(my name)

Age 16-18 i find 16 to be to young i try to go by what would you be like at that age 16 is a little young 17 or 18 i like to use cause gettin up like 20ish a large part of your life is behind you im leaning towards ncr but ive heard they do some shifty operations, i like good karma, lotta virgin mary pistol, sniper rifles and unscoped rifles, if i can afford to use cool and not the MOST effective il use all weapons that i heard you can mod to look cool, but if they really are just unique then il use the unique weps, i wont use any 1 of a kind weapons(like the qauss rifle unrepairable) il probably wear power armor, i like heavy high defense armor, and of course dude, power armor

you all realise all guns are one skill right? if energy weapons are seperate il focus on them but i wont tag them, im taking four eyes because i normally wear sunglasses(and itd be great if sunglasses gave the same bonus) but the +1 perception bonus when wearing glasses will be good, and i dont mind broken limbs and thats the only downside from small frame so im taking that and mabey a couple others, theres the gun skill for heavy & light weapons, im probly gunna work on(but not tag) energy weapons. they tend to be the best in the end. i like to sneak in and try to kill as many people quietly as possible but i use guns for that so im not all that succesful 100% of the time but sneaking can make 1 huge fight into 5-10 little ones. i like high intelligence ill probly have like

S:7 P:3 E:6 C:5 I:8 A:6 L:6

something like that, i find perception very useless in many cases, all the rest are useful, it might change my second play through based on how you can increase them and such, im playing hardcore first time around, the only thing i dont PREFER in hardcore is having weighted ammo. i might tag speech, sneak, and something else im not sure, there will be a different set of skills.
