[Forum Game]Fallout Realism : Carribbean

[AzagalTheGreat]

Welcome to Fallout Realism

The Setting :

War, War never changes.

Right before the world was engulfed in atomic flames, The Caribbean was a backwater.Far past its glory,it was an area of third world colonies and former spanish colonies.When the bombs fell, this suddenly changed.

While the USA and most mainland countries got pretty hard, The Carribbean came off lightly.Apart from Cuba, which is still highly radioactive and mutated in some places,And Puerto Rico,which is still considered a no go place, the Carribbean is thriving.Due to the low amount of nukes, Some pre-war governments that fled Europe in the last weeks before the war, now exactly 200 years ago,are established on the islands.These are highly advanced nations, but often lack the resources to do anything major.One such example are the Antilles, where the Queen of the Netherlands,(or so she claims to be) rules as an autocratic ruler.Rumors come that her researchers have made a major discovery...(this is an even later in the game).But not all governments were that lucky.Some did not manage to get over in time,And the lands once ruled by these governments have turned into petty states, some larger then the other.Piracy is also very common in the Carribbean, many pre-war ships have been kept in prime conditions, and any trading ships should be heavily guarded, lest they fall in hands of your enemy,or worse, pirates...Thus we go in the year 2300.A new century, new chances.

The Rules :

1: Each player gets 2 orders, which may be used on a variety of things, such as building, military action, looting, plundering, pirating,and so on.
2: If you fail to send orders 3 times without good reasons, you are booted and a replacement will take over your spot
3: The basic forum rules are in place here,and if you break one , apart from what ever punishment you get from the mods, you will get booted as well.

((these rules are under a subject of change.))

[Korona]

Name: Rey Joaquín Valverde III
Age: 34
Faction: The Kingdom of Spain and Hispaniola
Background: Joaguín Valverde is a direct descendant of the Kings of Spain. A few weeks before what is considered the beginning of the nuclear fallout, Joaquín's ancestor, King Carlos VI traveled to the Dominican Republic, where he was greeted as a dignitary. The Dominican Republic avoided fallout, and the months that followed were momentous. King Carlos traveled throughout the Dominican Republic, comforting the people of the Republic, assuring them that everything will be alright, and not to worry about a thing, as it was his job to worry, not yours. Carlos returned to Santo Domingo, and talked with the President extensively, until they reached an agreement. This agreement was to turn the Dominican Republic into a monarchy, with Carlos as the head of state, and the President as the head of government. Following this agreement, a constitution was drafted, and Carlos the VI was crowned Carlos I of Spain and Hispaniola.

[DharmaHelper]

Name: Captain James "Grinning Jim" Cook
Age: Unknown, looks to be at least late twenties to early thirties.
Faction: Brotherhood of Blood, Atlantic Chapter. Leader of the Atlantic Chapter. Governor of Great Inagua, British Empire

Background:
​

Grinning Jim Cook, so named for his friendly and diplomatic disposition, was once an active and founding member of the deadly pirate alliance known as the Brotherhood of Blood. His early career was one of piracy and profit as he worked to build his fortune and reputation. A skilled sailor, fighter, and pirate, Jim commands the respect of his allies and enemies not through brutality or slaughter, but through his cunning machinations and ambition. Cook is a natural leader, and equipped with the skills and talents necessary to survive and thrive in the ruthless climate of piracy.

After a sizable career as a pirate, Jim saw an opportunity in the form of the island of Great Inagua. He had been a privateer for the British Government for some time, and as a reward was given governorship of the island, on the condition that he retire. And so "Grinning Jim" Cook became Governor Cook, and for all outward appearances his days of wanton piracy were over. He was however able to convince his superiors to allow him and his crew to continue being privateers, in order to protect the British trade interests. Grinning Jim has since taken up a sort of middleman role between the Brotherhood of Blood, an organization of pirates he claims is nothing more than hard working privateers and honest men, and the British Government. It is understood that under Cook's governance and leadership, trade flows through the Caribbean.

 

[Plutonium95]

Name: Lady Elizabeth Hawkins

Age: 21 (Born December 26, 2255)

Faction: The Dominion of St. Kitts and Nevis, self proclaimed successor state to the Federation of Saint Christopher and Nevis

Background: In the decades following the great war the legitimate government of St. Kitts and Nevis nearly collapsed. By 2130 it only held the southeastern half of St. Kitts, while a number of other factions fought for control of the rest of the island and Nevis. Elizabeth Hawkins is a descendant of Lieutenant Colonel Nathan Hawkins who established the Kingdom of St. Kitts and Nevis in a military coup d'etat of the legitimate government in the year 2143, in order to bring an end to the years of fighting and instability. Following the coup Nathan made himself Governor and, along with a council of supporters, put an end to the civil war that was raging at the time, reconquering all of St. Kitts and Nevis. Unfortunately for Nathan, the military forces on the island were to weak following the war to completely resist British control, forcing him to step down as king and establish the Dominion of St. Kitts and Nevis, naming himself governor. Over the next several years, with order restored to the home islands, the Dominion began to recover as the electronics assembly industry was restarted and new crops were planted on larger scales.

Currently, Elizabeth’s father, Arthur Hawkins, is Governor, which has at this point has officially become a hereditary position that pays little attention to the 'British' in Nassau, while she holds the title of Lady of the Snows, based on the original name given by Columbus to the island of Nevis. As heir to the islands she received an education in governance as a child, though her true interest was in engineering. On her eighteenth birthday she disobeyed her father by joining the dominion’s navy as captain of a ship. While her father only rarely allows her to actually leave the islands she enjoys the position, romantically styling herself as a pirate like those from the golden age of piracy, much to her crew’s amusement.

Elizabeth is often headstrong and considered by some to be childish at times, but she truly cares for the people of St. Kitts and Nevis. She is a practicing catholic, despite the the religion's minority status on the islands, and attends mass frequently.

 

[jcucc]

Name: "Doctor" Jafar Thrax, Governor of Trinidad and Boss of Trinidad's Underworld
Age: 24
Bio: Since the Great War, the pages of Trinidad's history have been far more blood-stained than those of any other British Territory. After a series of bloody revolts against the Governor-General appointed by the Crown, the King conceded to the will of the people and allowed them to elect their own governor. This opportunity was near-unique in the islands of the caribbean, and the Trinidadians wasted no time in squandering its potential. They elected corrupt leader after corrupt leader, each secretly controlled by special interest groups who profited off of the suffering of the average Trinidadian.

One of these average Trinidadians suffering under the spittle-crusted bootheel of the government was a young muslim named Jafar Thrax. His parents perished of heatstroke when he was only a babe, and he grew up on the hard streets of Chaguanas. Intelligent and scrappy, he survived by joining a gang and committing violent crimes. However, when he was seventeen, Jafar and his best friend were shot multiple times in a gang hit. His best friend perished and Jafar's lungs were irreversibly damaged. The street doctor who saved Jafar's life took pity on the young man, making an assistant. As he grew older, Jafar learned more of the medical profession and by age twenty two was running the only non-profit hospital in the city. He had also used his medical know-how to ingratiate himself with the leaders of many Trinidadian gangs.

His great charisma and popularity made him appear to be a wonderful puppet for a conglomerate of businesses operating out of Trinidad. The conglomerate funded his campaign for governor, and, after he won, presented Jafar with a list of demands they wanted him to meet. Jafar refused, using his criminal contacts to launch a bloody coup against the Conglomerate. Then, once his position was secure, he turned on his former allies in the Underground, eliminating the leaders of each organization until he was left the sole ruler of Trinidad, inside and outside the law.

 

[LatinKaiser]

Name: Sir Henry Staunton, KCMG, CBE, Governor-General of Jamaica
Age: 50
Faction: The Royal Dominion of Jamaica
Background: After the Great War, Jamaica was engulfed in chaos, as several factions vied for control of the island. Eventually, the British government sent an expedition force to reestablish colonial rule. However, the Crown recognized that it would be difficult to directly rule Jamaica, and it became a royal dominion. Under British rule, Jamaica has prospered. Jamaica's government is comprised of a unicameral legislature, the Jamaican Assembly, and a Governor-General. Appointed by the British Crown, the Governor-General has extensive executive power. The Jamaican legislature is divided on which policies to adopt. The Jamaican Right supports expansion, advocating that the Dominion's well-trained military should be put to use conquering new territory. The Jamaican Left is much more concerned with economic growth, believing that domestic development and international commerce is the best path for Jamaica. In the recent elections, the Conservative Union Party, the largest right-wing party, has just defeated the left-wing Progressive Party. Claiming that overpopulation of the island is becoming a real problem, the CUP is calling for overseas expansion.

The current Governor-General, Henry Staunton, has had a long career in the service of the British Empire. He went to Britain's premier military academy, graduating fourth in his class. He oversaw a number of important operations in the Caribbean, and he also gained renown for peacefully resolving a large student protest in Jamaica ten years ago. Sir Henry has just been appointed Governor-General by His Majesty the King, and he is resolved to help Jamaica expand in the Caribbean region.

[viola]

Name: Kate "the Black"
Age: c. 27
Faction: Brotherhood of Blood, Lesser Antilles Chapter; self-declared "Governor" of Tobago.

Background: A woman whose origins remain unclear, Kate arrived in the Caribbean as a slave captured somewhere in the South by Tobago's raiders. She remained in the hands of her captors for ten years, forced to do grueling work in the plantations of the Tobagonian Slave-lords, before an opportunity for escape finally surfaced.

In 2271 Kate was sold with many of her companions to some wealthy Haitian landlord, during the travel through the Caribbean Sea she managed to free herself and lead the other slaves in a rebellion against the remaining crew. The Slavers were slaughtered and Kate was elected Captain by acclamation, her first act was to swear to do anything possible to stop the Slave Trade that dominated the Lesser Antilles.

In the next three years her initial crew of fifty fugitive slaves, including elders and children, grew into an impressive Pirate fleet whose main targets were the Slave Traders and their bases. The slaves who were freed usually joined Kate's growing army, mixing the lust for gold and plunder common to the pirates with an improbable crusade against Slavery. Kate's power and influence grew and, in 2274, she was allowed into the Piratical Brotherhood of Blood, confirming her position as undisputed Pirate leader of the Lesser Antilles, the prestige gained through the admission into such an infamous organization allowed her to enlist even more men for her revenge. It was in this period that she built her flagship, the "Raven's Nest", by pillaging pre-war technology and common scrap.

Finally, in 2276 she gathered a fleet big enough to attack the Slavers of Tobago within their own stronghold. The siege of Tobago was as successful as it was bloody, and after the battle the Slavers were utterly crushed. With the conquest of Tobago Kate had completed her revenge, and was now in charge of a small anarchic nation of Pirates and freed slaves, but she knew that this was merely a starting point for her next greater ambitions.

Kate's flagship: the Raven's Nest. A ramshackle, and yet fearsome battleship that has already claimed many ships with its firepower.

[baboushreturns]

Name: President Michel Jon
Age: 46
Faction: In the days after the great war the world went quiet. The ashes of American and Cuban cities fell over Haiti's cities and dead marine life washed up on its shores. The Haitian government was in shock and could not and indeed would not be able to withstand the coming storm. That year thousands starved as much needed humanitarian aid (in the forms of food and water) never came. And many began to protest on the streets demanding their government take some action. However the Haitian government had nothing they appealed to their Santo Domingan neighbors however they barely had enough for themselves. And so the revolution began. The Presidential Palace was torched and congress as well as the prime minister was hung from the docks at Port-au-Prince. However from this chaos order rose. The Haitian military and police forces under the control of General Peition moved to restore capital to the nation. And, after a swift and brutal crackdown order was maintained in the nation via martial law. Under General Peition the Haitian government finally moved to save the nation. Using what was left of the Haitian treasury wells were dug and new farming equipment was put into use a fusion energy plant was even brought on line in Porte-de-Paix. Before the general eventually died in 2098 he left the blue prints for a new republic one which would lead Haiti into a new era and, in 2277 his dream remains a reality.

[Lonelylurker]

Name: Martin Tromp
Age: 29
Faction: The Conch Republic

South Florida had little of strategic value to merit heavy bombing, and so came through the Great War far better than most of the continental USA. The Inhabitants of the Florida Keys were quick to declare independence as The Conch Republic and were joined by some remnants of the Atlantic Fleet that survived the bombs but had nowhere left to make port.

The city of Miami has been partially rebuilt, although the deep swamps of the interior are largely impassible and filled with the enormous mutant alligators known as “Swamp Dragons”.

While they have long lacked the means to make most of the old warships operational, an recent deal with a group called Waldis north of the swamps has given them a huge technological boost.

They possess a good economy based largely around undersea salvage (they have many well-trained divers with pre-war equipment). But little offensive military capability, although the cold-war forts running along the Keys are fully manned and restored.

 

[sealy300]

Name: Che Castro
Age: 40
Faction: The Republic of Cuba

It runs on a socialist government, with all enterprises being state owned and all working for the good of the people.

 

[Tufto]

((Funky last-minute switcharound!))

Name: Grand Master Calcutta Jovenus de Vallette

Age: 36.

Faction: Sovereign Military Hospitaller Order of Saint John of Jerusalem of St Lucia.

Background: The coming of war brought refugees and relocations across the world. The last remnants of an ancient order, the various fragments of the Knights Hospitaller banded together, with the intention of fleeing the old world and refounding themselves in the new. Against the odds, they succeeded, relocating to the tiny island of St Lucia.

Over the centuries, they have turned the island into an vast, impregnable fortress, its high walls armed to the teeth against any invaders. Firm in their faith in the cross, but also exhibiting the tolerance and humanity which defines their order, St Lucia has become a safe and free haven for those seeking to escape the horror of the wastes and the savagery which marks much of the Caribbean.

Calcutta de Valette is an experienced knight, one of the youngest to take the mantle of Grand Master of the Order. However, he is firm in his beliefs and excellent in combat, with a genuine care and concern for his citizens beneath his cold and ruthless facade. He is cautious to the extreme, rarely acting unless he is certain that the Order and the people of St. Lucia will benefit from it: some have even accused him of indolence. Nevertheless, the Order is functioning well under his governance.

[Noco19]

Name: "Baron Samedi"

Age: Claims to be the embodiment of death [Approximately 235 years old]

Faction: The Sèvitè [Tr: The Servants of the Spirits], a group of fanatical ghouls who were once members of the Haitian Creole minority within Cuba before the bombs fell. Kept alive as ghouls, serious belief in the practice of Vodou has risen dramatically among this group, centered around their de-facto leader, a ghoul naming himself the physical avatar of the mythical Vodou Loa of the dead - Baron Samedi. Though originally flocking to the Ghoul Town of Holguín, under Baron Samedi, this group distances itself from heretics and non-believers, believing their condition to be ultimate proof of the power of Vodou, and have begun to advocate for the creation of a separate nation and perhaps even the return to their Haitian homeland.

Background: Baron Samedi was, like many other Haitian Creoles living in Cuba, a migrant worker, facing discrimination and a low-standard of living. This disassociation with his Cuban home broughout about a strong bond with his old homeland of Haiti, and the Baron, at this time known simply as Jean-François, silently practiced the Vodou faith. When the bombs fell and he awoke to the new reality of chaos, finding himself essentially a walking corpse, Jean-François embarked upon a personal transformation into Baron Samedi, declaring this a sign. Though it would take persuasion, Samedi would eventually establish a following among his Haitian Creole peers, his family being the first open converts. An open supporter of a Vodou nation, Samedi has been lately ramping up his rhetoric, turning his followers against those who shun their ways, going so far as to declare the establishment of militia a necessity.

 

[aedan777]

Name: Matthew Albright
Age: 34
Faction: Enclave
Background: Commander of the Enclave outpost on Porto Rico ((intentional misspelling based on Americanization of the name)). He is determined to bring American control to the lawless Caribbean, and sees most of the current inhabitants as little more than pirates and squatters. His command left the mainland following the chaos and leadership vacuum following the destruction of Raven's Rock. Albright and his men hope that by leaving the areas influenced by the Brotherhood of Steel, they can create a powerbase more easily, to one day return to the mainland.

NAME: Monsieur Georges Chabin

AGE: 55

FACTION: New Republic of Africa

BIO: Monsieur Chabin is the current President of the Republic of the NRA. He was born and lived his life on Martinique, spending his youth as a soldier defending the island from pirates and slavers. After his stint in the military, he became a Mentoh, a spiritual leader in the Republic's glorious religion. He served the faith for 25 years and was elected to lead the republic five years ago. He was recently re-elected to his post. Monsieur Chabin is known for his charismatic and diplomatic spirit and is expected to lead the Republic for some time.

FACTION INFO: Martinique was rocked by the war and much of the pre war knowledge was lost. The people gathered together into communities and tried to pick up from where they left off, but life would never be the same. However, some of the old knowledge still remained on the island. The first pre war book that was found and reproduced across Martinique was Return to a Native Land, a book that spoke about Negritude and the land of Africa. More books speaking of the magical land of Africa and other ideas were found and from these books a new religion was born. A religious class, the Mentohs, rose up and became the leaders of Martinique. Their new religion spoke of the land of Africa, where their ancestors came from and where their spirits return. The religion focuses on seeking protection from the ancestors to defend against the evil spirits, called bekes. The religion strongly favors democracy since in the old books it says that the ancestors originally protected themselves from the bekes by gaining their freedom and voting for leaders. The New Republic of Africa seeks to find Africa, only knowing that it is to the east. However, they lack the pre-war ships and supplies needed to search for it and so they are currently stuck in the Caribbean and forced into contact with their neighbors.
