Fandom Pandora: A Borderlands Story

[ToryD]

Name: Jax as The Hunter

Origin: Pandora, Fyrestone, Arid Bandlands

Role: Sniper/Support

Weapon:

Preferred Manufacturer: Maliwan - "Because elemental damage is sexy."

Ability: Mutation - "So, instead of being all adorable, my skag pup, Bandit, totally turns into this super badass version of himself. He starts shooting out random elemental effects and tearing faces up and just being.. well.. awesome."

Background: Hailing from Fyrestone long before any vault hunter came through and WAYYYY before Hyperion started their big ass construction project on it, Jax was a Pandora native true to the harsh realities of the world around him. He got a gun on his first birthday. He started drinking on his fifth. And by the time he was seven, he'd killed a dozen bandits. Needless to say, he fit right in. Unlike his compatriots, however, Jax took a liking to skags, a local creature with a vicious appetite and a hideous appearance to boot. One skag, ironically, took a liking to him as well. He played with the skag for years, building their bond until one day it was killed, leaving behind only one pup, which Jax happily took in. This pup, which he named Bandit, ( in honor of all the bandits he's slaughtered near his hometown ) has been by his side for a while now, taking the same liking to Jax as did it's mother.

As Jax and Bandit traverse the wastes, their combination of teamwork and alcohol-induced rampages will bring them ever closer to their goal of becoming famous vault hunters. Why do they want to be famous vault hunters, one might ask? Well, because loot. Do you NEED any other reason?!

Canon Characters:

I'll be taking over the following..

"EXPLOOOOOSIONNSSSS?!?!"

"A most delightful addition to the ideal standards of gentlemen everywhere."

"Catch-A-Ride!"​

 

[Gobbo]

Name: Tyson as the Grenadier


Origin: Pandora/ Old Haven


Role: EXPLOSION DISPENSER.


Weapon: Hulk, his triple-barreled grenade launcher.


Preferred Manufacturer: Torgue


Ability: Make it rain: He rapid-fires grenades into the air, with little care about where they land. He's lost a lot of companions that way.


Background: Tyson was raised in Old Haven. Luckily, he had made the decision to become a Vault Hunter before the bandits raided, and by the time they drove everyone out he had found his first Torgue weapon and wandered off into the wastelands. Since then he's done his part in thinning the bandit populations, even going so far as to be labled 'Boomstick' by the few bandits that have managed to escape his attacks. He has a reputation for getting a little bit irritable if he goes too long without hearing an explosion.

Name- Amy as the mad scientist


Origin- Eden 5(6?)


Role- uhhhh....wild card I guess


Weapon- she uses a bunch of different types of guns(though... Not always proficient at a lot of them) one weapon she keeps almost all the time though is a Jacob's pistol with a few hearts carved into it named "Elizabeth"


Preferred manufacturer- ether valdof of jakobs


Action ability- "hand eye termination" she uses the implants in her arm and brain to activate a sorta weak aimbot type thing.... (Like a mix between Misha's showdown and Fallout's VATS system...where she selects body parts and see's percentages....but no slow motion... And taking health damage can reduce effectiveness)


Background- Amy hailed from Eden-5 as a researcher.... She mostly got freelance science gigs working for whatever company paid well at the time. Her time in the lab has made her.....to put it lightly... Bonkers, she did subjugate herself to mechanical implants to "promote research effectiveness"....the news of the vaults excited her. So she took her research with her to Pandora, to find great things like how many times can you shoot someone in the leg before they die.


Cannon characters- uhhhh...I'll work on that in a bit

Mad scientist. Intriguing. You may proceed.

 

[Gobbo]

Name: Cole as the Flamer


Origin: Titan 1


Role: Setting things on fire. If it's not burning, it should be.


Weapon: Fire-element SMG


Preferred Manufacturer: Maliwan


Ability: Fire Sale. His arm transforms into a huge flamethrower, dousing everything around him in fire.


Background: Cole was raised from a young age to appreciate and enjoy setting things on fire. Both of his parents had been convicted of arson at some point in their lives, and passed their love of flame on to their son. At fifteen he ended up making too powerful of a bomb, and blew his arm off in the process. Instead of moping around, he ended up creating a new arm for himself, rigged to act as an improvised flamethrower in dire situations.

Nice idea. It's good.

 

[Annie Xavier]

Name: Twilight Nightmare


Origin: Pandora


Role: Illusionist.


Weapon: Sniper


Preferred Manufacturer: Jackobs of course


Ability: Embrace the Darkness: A thick layer of fog encroaches on the area causing enemies to see Illusions and false images of the targets fears, shadowy images that distract and cause enemies to behave irrationally, IE: run away, throw grenades at things that aren't actually there.


Background: Twilight Night...well not much is known about her besides she prefers the shadows, stalking around quietly without mercy or even emotions of any kind just sheer and utter disregard for those who stand in her way. She has little want or need for material gain and seems just to enjoy the act of taking life, of messing with others minds, making them go insane before she finally take's their lives.

This RP is no longer active, it would seem. Even still, I couldn't approve this if it were. I'd advise on working on spelling, punctuation and toning down the "goth" vibe for future reference. A character named Twilight Nightmare sounds like it'd do better in a children's story as opposed to a Borderlands RP.
