Fallout: Overseas
This RP is about post-apocalyptic Europe. During its course a group of scientists, their bodyguards and other interrested parties will travel accros the Atlantic ocean to the European Commonwealth.Small beastiary:
Radshark: Sharks (like all creatures living in the oceans and seas) were exposed to extreme amounts of radiation. The ones that survived have developed some very disturbing new features. They have taken a green-blackish colour. Their teeth have increased in length and have pierced their mouth which constantly causes extreme pain, especially when the mouths are opened. They are insane and almost constantly in a berserk state, destroying or eating everything in their path. They have also increased in size (nearly double, and in some cases even more, their original size).
Überjelly: Jellyfish have swollen horribly and have taken grotesque colours due to their exposure to radiation. Their sizes vary from human height to that of large pre-war cruise ships. Some species have mutated into ampebius land dwelling monstrosities resembling a large blob (similar to the black pudding) while others have remained sea-dwellers but lost their tentacles (making them swimming blobs). The latter are of tremendous size.
Radwhale: Whales have become a true monstrosity. Their immense size has increased even further as far as triple the original (in some cases even more). Their stomach has grown and mutated, taking up almost ¾ of the creatures body. It can devour anything that fits inside, regardless of material. They emit a very loud, booming sound.
Geigoctopus(Radkraken): Octopuses have increased in size and physique. Even though they retain their mollusc physiology, an additional, much harder and thicker layer of skin has formed on their bodies. This skin is stone hard and repulses bullets as well as energy weapon projectiles. It must be broken by multiple explosions in order to get to the normal, soft skin.
There will of course be other creatures, variations of the above creatures and creatures we already know.

Intro post:
"Once more..." Professor Cubbins mumbled as he fiddled with the machinery. He held a single headphone to his ear and waited for a short while before starting to operate the machinery again. To anyone who watched he could have been taken for an out of place DJ. Not for Morgan and Morgiah however. They simply stood about silently, glancing around, scanning the area for potential threats as always.
After repeating the process a few times the Professor seemed happy. He pushed a single button and another stray message was whirled into the Wasteland that was America. The self constructed antenna on top of the old RobCo factory boomed lowly, a sign that it was doing its job while all across the former USA a message could be heard by anyone who had a radio. Cubbins was slightly sweating as he turned on his.
"Scientist seeks partners for great explorational and scientific undertaking. Any man or woman, human or ghoul able to assist in any possible way is welcome. The reward will be as follows: Any findings will be split up between the entire party. Negotiations possible. Interrested parties are to report their interrest at the most important pre-war christian landmark in Providence, Rhode Island," echoed the Professor's voice, set to an infinite loop.
He grinned in triumph and turned to Morgan. Morgan replied with a nod and exited the room. So far, all was going smoothly, according to the plan.

Skills: Survival, Throwing, Medicine (And First Aid, kind of the same), Small Guns, Vehicles
Equipment and possessions: (Clothing already describes, oopsie) Some spears, a first aid kit, a .44 magnum, and a few other trinkets.
Additional info: His job involves studying animals and rescuing some from dangerous situations as well. Sometimes he even captures animals and sells them to interested parties. He sells his research to many scientists. He has a pet dog, a Border Collie named Maggy. He is Australian and has a heavy Australian accent. When he was 10 his famly sailed to America, missed and landed in Mexico. they eventually migrated up to Florida where the lived in post-apocalyptic Miami. Mason eventually went up north to the Capital Wasteland because a very wealthy animal scientist required him to.
Mason also has a camera which he films creatures with, and a sketchbook to draw creatures and a bit of scenery (He is an excellent artist). Mason may seem a bit wild but when you get down too it, he is a very deep person due to everything he has seen. What he does may seem pointless, rescue animals, but his long term goal is to bring normal life back to Earth. Mason loves all animals, but in his travels and rescues, he has seen many animals become mutated. Mason hates anything mutated and it shows - he kills mutated creatures on the spot. He likes ghouls less for who they are, but he doesn't hate them. He just finds them pathetic. Mason also is addicted to Rad-Away (Not truly addicted, but is paranoid that he would become a ghoul without them). He takes a pill form and takes at least one hundred a day, eating so much as five at a time every hour. He even feeds them to his dog Maggy so she doesn't get irradiated. The reason Mason does this is because he partnered up with a man named Ferris O'Harin a few years ago, they traveled together for around a month, but one day Ferris was attacked by a highly irradiated Centaur and shortly after killing it, he turned into a ghoul. Around an hour later, he decided he couldn't live like that and took his own life. Mason met Maggy when she ran away from her rich owner in Canterbury Commons and Mason was hired to rescue her from the wasteland. Mason did, but when he got back to the town it had been raided, and Maggy's owner killed. She traveled with Mason ever since.
