Greetings facepunch, I come to you with a riveting tale about a wastelander known only as Mack.
Throughout his life, Mack has seen many things, heard many things, and has even done many things. Oh yes, his life has been a definate rollercoaster of post-apocalyptic madness, and I thought I would share it with you today.
And so I present to you:
[B]MACK THE MERC: THE UNTOLD STORY

[B]PROLOGUE[/B]
[/B]
To this very day, Mack wanders the wastelands using only the knowledge from his past experiences to see his way through. Many wastelanders who have encountered his man have walked away with a new point of view, or a strong hatred. Although he may be simple, he is not weak, and no one can see him otherwise.
If you ever manage to come across this man, keep your wits about you, your strengths open, and your weaknesses hidden; for he is Mack: Mercenary of the DC Hellhole.

Now, don't get my wrong; Mack wasn't always a merc. He has been many things in his life, each of which have taught him lessons- Lessons he will never forget.
Mack had once been a raider, not too long ago.

Hell, he's even rolled in a gang of slavers.

And shit... He's even done things that AREN'T on his list of proudest achievements.

But that's not Mack anymore. He's a changed man. How he came to that stage, no one knows, and maybe no one will ever know. The fact of the matter is that he's not what he used to be, and he's definately doing well for himself.
[B]CHAPTER ONE: A ROAD LESS TRAVELED[/B]
So here we are. Present day, and Mack currently resides in an old trailer he came across in an abandoned campground. It's sturdy, and not even the bugs will attempt to bypass the stench that lingers.

Mack has been hanging around this campground for far too long- He knows it's time to leave as the Yao Guai have been howling closer and closer each night. So this is it, it's time to pack up and head out- There's nothing left for him here.

Quite early in Mack's travels, he's already come across this red demon-like thing. He's heard people call them "Deathclaws" before, but it's never really intimidated him. This is the first Deathclaw Mack has ever come across, and still- Intimidation is not a factor.

"I've fought Mirelurks more fearsome than you!" Mack cried, as he fired off several shots at the persistant deathclaw.

But obviously the beast was no match, and his life had been taken by the hands of a Mercenary. Mack felt little remorse for this large creature, but a little disappointed that it couldn't put up much more of a fight. "Probably the runt of the litter," Mack finally added, as he set off down the road.

Along his path to nowhere, Mack encountered several obstacles such as mutants

And raiders

But nothing would have EVER prepare him for this...
[img]http://img840.imageshack.us/img840/2498/screenshot34u.png[/img]
It was the biggest freak he'd ever seen, and he's definately seen some pretty big freaks in his time. He had to think fast! He quickly dodged his way into a little shack where he found this little puppy, "Children's Toy" he thought...
[img]http://img191.imageshack.us/img191/8005/screenshot35h.png[/img]
He quickly ran back out, and aimed the launcher at the behemoth, taking in a deep breath, he pulled the trigger.
[img]http://img808.imageshack.us/img808/7962/screenshot38.png[/img]
And hell did that bastard light up like a christmas tree!
"Jingle fuckin' bells!" Mack shouted as the beast was engulfed in this glorious light.
[img]http://img834.imageshack.us/img834/2646/screenshot39r.png[/img]
"Blew his head clean off," Mack thought to himself, as he dropped the toy gun, and walked down the road.
[img]http://img818.imageshack.us/img818/7098/screenshot40.png[/img]
There was nothing left for him here...

Thank god.
Good shit so far.
I'll have some new updates later today, but I'm really tired. Keep reading, guys!
First picture looks painful.
Actually nevermind, I've got a somewhat large update coming up in a few minutes or so... STAY TUNED!
As soon as Imageshack will hurry up...
:woop:
Updated!
[quote]"I've fought Mirelurks more fearsome than you!" Mack cried[/quote]
Hooray for oblivion references :neckbeard: (It sounds like I've fought mudcrabs more fearsome than you at least)
This is awesome!
Be right back, off to play some Fallout 3.
Awesome OP. I would love to hear more.
We demand more.
:iia:
:iia:
Some good shit right there.
What mods are you running, I can see Fellout. is it MMM that makes the Deathclaw red?
I'm gathering mods to run another playthrough or two of FO3.
A good read I look forward to see what happens next.
[QUOTE=valiant..;24064175]What mods are you running, I can see Fellout. is it MMM that makes the Deathclaw red?

That is correct, I'm currently running MMM, Fellout, Unofficial Patch, and a few other mods that you probably won't see.
Also I'm having problems trying to media tag some of the images, but it doesn't seem to work. Anything I'm doing wrong?
is the unofficial patch still useful after you've installed 1.7?
[QUOTE=valiant..;24066295]is the unofficial patch still useful after you've installed 1.7?[/QUOTE]
It should be, I'm not entirely sure.
Also I'm working on the next part of Chapter One, so stick around!
You can't media tag images, Garry removed that a while back for some reason.
Need's more hordes of Ghouls and super mutant behemoths.
OP has been updated folks
And that's all for today, considering I did all of that in one day. But be sure to check in tomorrow! If you have any ideas for a plot direction, please PM me, and I'll look it over!
Post your updates in each post, rather than keep editing the OP. Easier to find updates that way.
Nice skins for the bigger beasts. And that Charger behemoth looks cool too.
What mods/skins are you using OP?

Already posted
It's like a children's story illustrated with pictures from fallout 3
