do no harm & all that


― independent, private, selective ALEX RICHARDS from fallout as written by miles. a story in : healing.


conduct.


  1. pretty standard / basic dni: no homophobia, racism, misogyny, etc. will be tolerated here. please no adult/minor rp, rape rp or incest rp. please no minors. account is strictly 18+ due to the themes in fallout.

  2. as fair warning, fallout is full of heavily triggering content. it will involve: slavery, sexual assault, drug use, nuclear war, classism, xenophobia, body horror, etc.

  3. mun. miles. 24. he/they. i am brand new to twitter rp. i've rped for years on other platforms like tumblr, instagram, and others. but i am 100% clueless / winging it when it comes to twitter. please be patient with me if i do some clown shit. i also work night shifts so activity tends to drop during the evening, and sometimes my responses will be very slow.

  4. sexual / nsfw rp. this content will not likely be present here, because it's not something that i feel comfortable writing, personally. i would also kindly ask that if we are mutuals, please confine most / if not all smut rps to dms, so that i can avoid it on the timeline.

  5. shipping. muse is very flirtatious towards other men, however, this does NOT mean that i am interested in shipping. this is simply his personality. i am multi-ship, although very selective with shipping.

  6. preferences. because i am busy irl, and i'm a chaotic mess, i prefer to do short rps on the timeline only. i'm not opposed to lengthy writing in dms, but it's just not possible for me right now. i also tend to avoid action/fighting threads because they don't interest me. please do not try to initiate combat with my muse unless we both agree upon it first / it's important to the plot.

  7. follow backs. i tend to follow back people who post more in-character content than ooc. i also prefer to write with people who have proper grammar and spelling. ( although a few mistakes here and there is no biggie, we all make 'em. ) i might not follow back if i feel like our muses might not mesh well together / lack chemistry. honestly, no hate at all if i don't follow back. i'm not a snob who looks down on other people for having fun, i just want to cater my feed to be full of people i want to write with, and don't want to force interactions for no reason. so, don't feel bad if i don't follow back, it's nothing personal!

  8. closing. overall my main goal here is just to have a silly, goofy time and i hope my mutuals feel the same. i don't want this to be stressful for either of us. so don't feel intimidated to approach me about anything. if you're uncomfy with something, want to plot, swap memes, etc etc don't hesitate to dm me at all. i want everyone to be comfy and have a chill experience.

from the indie fallout wiki: Previously a doctor in California, Richards was "suckered" into doing military work for the New California Republic, which was viewed as a "patriotic duty." Richards states that "like many idealistic men" before him, he believed it to be a great idea, adding that he was excited to make the world a better place.Richards was stationed stationed near Hoover Dam during the First Battle four years ago, and is able to recount the events that transpired. He states that Caesar's Legion attacked the dam full force, with Chief Hanlon pulling his troopers back to lure the enemy in before stationing them in more secure spots. With the Legion suffering as a result, NCR Rangers and First Recon began dispatching Legion officers. While the Legion began sending its best men to deal with the Rangers and First Recon, the Rangers lured them into a trap at Boulder City and "blew them all to hell."He states that many people died and that anyone with medical training had their hands full for weeks following the aftermath of the battle, adding that he saw "quite a few things" he would rather forget about. Sometime after the battle, Richards was moved to Camp Forlorn Hope, being the only person in the camp with medical experience. He states that he just wants to get back home, adding that he's "had enough fighting and fixing up soldiers" only to send them back into the field to die.
