War. War never changes.
On October 23rd 2077, a world war raged once more. Humanity was all but wiped out in 2 hours brief hours. From the nuclear flames new civilisations struggled to survive. A few managed to reach the safety of an underground vault. You are one of those in such a vault. Vault 54. That war was 20 years ago.. Now your vault is about to open, your people experience the outside world. A small scouting party is being sent to check on the outside world. Some volunteered for this task, others chosen in a lottery. All residents between 16 and 55 are eligible for this task. You are part of this scouting group. You gather near the exit to the vault, awaiting orders from your overseer. Life in the vault is about to change.
