Name: Talsa Farad Gender: Female, genderfluid Aromantic Age/DOB: 20 / 2266? Origin: Vault Earth, Vault 98, Commonwealth Family: Unknown, Alive in Vault Other: Emerged from the Vault 3 years before Rookery as a volunteer and never went back inside Height: 5'10" Weight: 175, padded but extremely muscular, looks quite curvy but she is absolutely a brick shit house of a woman Hair: dyed aqua-white, after she saw the 'fashions' in the Commonwealth she dove right in and got her longer hair chopped off at Diamond City's Kathy and John's Salon; it's silky and straight though does frizz up in moist weather and dries out in the desert; it's rare to see her with the same hair style or color more than a few months at a time Eyes: rich brown to the point of black, large and usually covered by some amount of hair, looks surprised and pleased Appearance: red-tan skin of a swarthy background, though she also has prominent vitiligo pale marks from her face, neck, shoulders, chest, arms, hands, and legs. These vary in size from a postage stamp to saucer-sized, and she does occasionally try covering them up but eventually gives up; she has a hooked nose and full lips, and is considered quite pretty, even by the raiders she punches when they get too close; though she's adopted mostly casual old-world garb as shown she still keeps her Vault gear as well, which did include a nice sweater Genetic Abilities: though none overtly, she is remarkably strong, and seems to have an innate understanding of structures and physics, to the point of being able to knock down an entire wobbling building with one well-placed punch. |

Icarus Processing: none, she shows no negative markers, though, and with her skill and strength Melissa has offered to help find the right genetic partner even if she doesn't want someone permanently in her life; she's going to take them up on it because the world needs solid folks like her. | |
Skills or Profession: in the Vault it was all studies and testing, her down time consumed with working out and practice sparring. Outside, her skills and training were put to excellent use by Levi and the Commonwealth Wrecking Crew. She has extensive knowledge of architecture and civil engineering, but with an eye for demolition rather than planning and building. If there's a structure in the way of a new project, she will erase it from the landscape as easily as dragging an eraser over a drawing. She can identify construction materials and tools, using most of them with ease though she claims she doesn't care for routers and lathes - in her childhood she saw someone get severely injured when their clothing caught in the spin, and has avoided their use ever since. Her size and strength belies her intelligence, she's keenly smart and able to use the big words with any given technician or scientist, often surprising them. She seems to be able to know exactly the weakest spot - on a building, on a person, the ground, or weapon, and with her tremendous strength and even more impressive agility, her aim has never been known to miss. Her fight training, while less adept than her demolitions, is still quite good given her strength overall, and she tends to use boxing gloves, clubs and baseball bats (she has a great love of Moe Cronin's Swatter shop in Diamond City, and uses a Weighted Grey Rocket Powered Swatter in combat). Obviously she also enjoys changing up her hair style, and will take a break from bashing Raiders to complement a style before punching their face in. | |
Personality: Talkative and fun, she's truly at her best out in the ruins where she can let loose and enjoy her love of watching things fall down. From the Commonwealth to the Mojave things didn't change, except now she can spot good weak points from above on Sprinkle's back! She can be quite curt with folks who either look down on her for being a woman, having skin markings, 'being a big girl', or any number of other reasons, and equally looks down on folks who have such views. She also is a bit of a snob when it comes to Vault dwelling, she knows that civilization continued but look at it, it's a mess. Let's clean it up, shall we? | |
Events or History: Born to Vault dwellers from the central Boston area, her Vault, 98, seemed to be passed by for decades before outsiders noticed its entrance. Early on in the Vault's history, they realized the Vault-Tec plans were fit to destroy them like most other Vaults, and abandoned the edicts of their first Overseer, preferring to set forth with education and plans to help rebuild whatever was 'out there' when they finally left. Consummate engineers, they expanded their Vault considerably, and when Levi made contact with it, he set about putting them in charge of the renovations of the Commonwealth overall. Not everyone in the Vault wants to leave it, after all it's reasonably lavish and has quite a bit more technology in it than others of its age. But Talsa volunteered to exit and enjoys her decision, though she did find it a bit weird that so many 'not human things' are out there... She does get along very well with some SuperMutants, because they love smashing things too! And, she's among the few Humans who can physically keep up with them, hefting similar tools, and laughing while doing so. With the advent of the Rookery, and contact with the western Mojave Conglomerate, she was very interested in going out to New Vegas to work on their projects. It was at that point she was met with this amazing dragon, and the rest is - or will be - history. Currently is set up in the Samson Rock Crushing Plant, having made arrangements with RepoGirl and the Fiends, to keep on a friendly basis while she works. They have welcomed Beula into their camp as a pottery maker, and even RepoGirl is happy with this because it means people are willing to spend money in the area. |
