More Ena Please!

Alright, so last month I won a little giveaway being held by @phiners. I could have any character I wanted made into a cute amigurumi. Immediately one specific character came to mind being the fallout nerd that I am.

I discussed with her if she was okay with the character choice and she was! After a few more steps Nick is worked on, completed, and then shipped off and arrived yesterday. So I wanted to share her beautifully detailed work with everyone! If you think this looks amazing reblog this and give her a follow, she's really nice too!

Fallout 3 is actually a really sad game when you think about it. The main character, The Lone Wanderer, is an incredibly tragic character.

The Lone Wanderer’s mother dies giving birth to them. Their father runs away leaving them stranded and alone, launched into a dangerous, cruel, and unforgiving world of monsters, both human and otherwise. 

Death, destruction, chaos, madness, brutality, gore, mutilation, agony, poverty, loss, and darkness. The Lone Wanderer witnesses these things and experiences their fair share of it personally.

And then, after crossing the entire hellish wasteland at least twice over, they find their father, only to have him taken away from them again. But this time it’s permanent. After crossing a ruined world of nuclear ash, their own father sacrifices himself and they have to watch him slowly die, powerless to stop it.

Their childhood friends disown them and banishes them from their own home. The man who murdered their father somehow lived. There alone in a world that will kill them even for being a morally just person.

And if you play Point Lookout, there’s a hallucination sequence that is especially creepy. You find ‘bubbleheads’ that read out mocking descriptions.

Intelligence: “Tsk. Tsk. Walked right into another trap. Exactly how stupid are you?“ 

Strength: “This is one situation you’re not going to be able to fight your way out of.“ 

Endurance: "Keep it up, you’re almost there… wherever ‘there’ may be… probably nowhere." 

Agility: "Isn’t it funny how everyone you get close to ends up leaving?" 

Perception: "This doesn’t look right, not right at all." 

Charisma: "Blech. If my kid looked like that, I’d abandon it too." 

Luck: "Dead mother, life in a post-nuclear Wasteland and not a friend in it. Yeah, you aren’t exactly blessed." 

The Lone Wanderer has it rougher than any other character I’ve seen in a video game. 

Lone wanderer: I am the lone wanderer, my goal is to find my father and proceed to help him with project purity. I will do whatever it takes to see this project become successful.

Soul Survivor: I am searching for the man who kidnapped my son, I will do anything to safely return my son home no matter what is outside in the hellish wastes.

Courier: *Using mail as ninja stars* I'm Benny's worst nightmare

Artuš Scheiner (1863 - 1938)

Steve's parents always disregarded the rules by letting their older children use their wands for household chores😂, so by the time they started school they were already able to perform some simple spells.

In 1928, a figure known as the Ice Man could be seen delivering a 25-pound ice block in Houston, Texas. This snapshot reflects a time when the ice trade was a highly profitable industry, primarily during the 19th and early 20th centuries. Ice was harvested from natural sources such as ponds and streams and then transported via railroads or ships to various destinations worldwide. An intricate network of ice wagons was responsible for the final distribution of this valuable commodity.

The roots of this industry can be traced back to 1806 when Frederic Tudor, also known as the Ice King, initiated the ice trade in New England by shipping ice to his affluent clientele in the Caribbean. Over the years, his enterprise expanded to encompass regions like Cuba and the southern United States. Eventually, ice was being shipped to destinations as far-flung as India, Australia, China, and South America.

At the zenith of the ice trade, this sector in the United States employed a staggering 90,000 individuals and relied on the labor of 25,000 horses. The demand for ice experienced a notable upswing during World War I. However, once the war concluded, the ice trade saw a precipitous decline due to the advent of refrigeration cooling systems. By the 1930s, modern refrigerators began to gain prevalence in households, and by the 1950s, they had become nearly ubiquitous in both the United States and Europe. This technological advancement rendered the ice trade largely obsolete.

Things come along like this that make the internet so special, I AM IN FUCKING TEARS

ok but the companions and their fav songs on diamond city radio?

Cait: Atom bomb baby (she considers it to be her theme song)

Curie: Pistol packin’ mama (she just knows all the words to this one song)

Danse: Rocket 69 (because it’s about, you know, space travel)

Deacon: Crawl out through the fallout (for the big finish at the end which he forces the survivor to sing with him)

Hancock: He’s a demon, he’s a devil, he’s a doll (he’s pretty sure it;s about him)

MacCready: The wanderer (reminds him of a mungo he used to know from DC…)

Piper: Orange-colored sky (because it’s big and exciting and then gets all quiet and then scares the survivor when they’re not expecting it)

Preston: Dear hearts and gentle people (reminds him of why he joined the minutemen to begin with)

Valentine: End of the world (he’s very melodramatic and it suits him)
