Fallout Equestria: The Ranger of Seamane

Introduction

“War, war never changes.” - Narrator of Fallout One through New Vegas, Ron Perlman

The end of the world happened pretty much as we predicted. With dwindling resources we had to turn to other nations, strike up deals and trade agreements. But, as always greed stood in its way and war came. A senseless war that ended with the annihilation of the world. The souls of those who died fading away into the ambient radiation of the hell that was now our world, the wasteland.

However, it was not the end of pony kind as some had predicted. Neigh, it was merely a prelude to another bloody and dark chapter of our history. Though the surface had been burned by balefire, every major population center bombed into ruin, and almost every source of water contaminated, ponies lived on.

To the south of the Equestrian Heartland lay the region and city of Seamane. A hub city for the expansive agricultural industry of the region. Around it lay vast rolling plains with gentle hills that played host to innumerable farms. The expansive region was sparely populated beyond the few major settlements, the largest of course being Seamane itself. For the entire population of Seamane and the region five stables had been built. Of these stables only two ever opened, from one came the current inhabitants of Dune City. They arrived a hundred and twenty years after the war ended and set up shop between Colt and Saint Clover. They now stood as one of the major trade hubs of the region.

The other stable that opened unleashed the gangs that now hold the city's ruins in their grasp. The Magi, who operate out of the ruins of Seamane University. The Angels, a group of drug dealers who has maintained control of the other gangs and prevented any major territorial shifts for the past forty years. The Sea Serpents, who have claimed every area along the two rivers that run through Seamane. The Sand Trappers, who hold the western industrial ruins of Seamane as well as the suburbs.

Those who managed to survive the end and did not have the luck of a stable to hide within eventually returned to the city itself. The largest settlement was Saint Clover, it was a cargo ship that had survived the end of the world while in it's moorings. The ship was the H.M.S. Clover the Clever, a ship named in honor of one of Equestria's ancient heroes. Now it was to be the shelter of the largest population of ponies in the region. From it rose a great merchant syndicate which ran every aspect of the ship.

This is Seamane where the old world corruption found a new world home. Ponies slowly turning from mutual aid to selling one another off for profit and resources. The gangs of Seamane are growing restless. The wealthy becoming more greedy. A great red eye from the north has turned its gaze to the Seamane region, and war, war never changes.
