Nightkin

Considered the elite among the Master's army, the Nightkin were once outfitted with some of the most advanced weaponry in the wasteland. When Moreau was defeated it caused a great shock throughout their population. Those that were not slain by the Brotherhood or the NCR were driven east. Having to resort to living like animals, it was not long until many of them began to crack.

Living quite a long time thanks to the FEV experiments they were a part of, many have had to endure the slow descent from a life of excess to one of true poverty. Saying the average Nightkin is dangerously unstable would probably still be putting it too nicely, and all struggle with their mental states when they are in plain view of others. Once handed Stealth Boys like pre-war candy, they have not only developed a deep dependence on them, but also suffered from long term exposure effects no human has ever lived long enough to experience.

Those that live in the Great Dust Bowl generally choose to serve the The Master's Bastards. They are given a familiar higher status and have more access to the technology and weapons they prefer to use. A handful of outcasts still roam the region however, some forever hunting a never ending supply of Stealth Boys, while others wear wigs and mistake humans for their grandchildren.

As Characters

Similar in build to their super mutant cousins, they recieve the same stats and starting equipment as in the core rulebook on pages 53 and 78 with the following changes.

Raise Intelligence and Charisma maximums to 8, raise skill maximums to 5, however any time your character cannot hide and is visible to others you begin to struggle with the voices.

Using Idashroomcloud's Horror in Fallout homebrew supplement, you will make an Intelligence + Survival check at Difficulty 2 or suffer a Temporary Psychosis for the rest of the scene or until you are able to get out of sight.

You also begin the game with one Stealth Boy.
