    Welcome everypony, to my first offering to the FCB’s Stranger Things Event. Inspired by my love of cosmic horror, as well as rewatching Gravity Falls and watching John Wolfe replay The Evil Within, I decided to create a character who would seek out the...mysterious Commonwealth locales. Presenting...

    Growing up, you'd always aspired to be one of those daring PIs you'd see on TV with your grandad. Through years of hard work, you eventually opened your own little office.

    You often worked alongside the BPD, though often your cases turned....bizarre. From creepy cults to people disappearing around a corner, you saw it all. Your life changed when you rescued Nora Blackwood, the daughter of a respected judge from a cult within Dunwich Borers.

    A few dates later, you were engaged. The rest, as they say, is history...

    SPECIAL

    Gameplay

    The Eldritch Investigator combines stealth, gunplay, fisticuffs, and running to create the closest I've come to a “Survival Horror” type playthrough during my time of Fallout 4.

    From Sanctuary Hills, head across the broken ridge, and head along the left side of the coast. Once you find a humming generator with a switch, flip said switch and follow the cable/pipeline. Alongside a hatch with three cap stashes, there’ll be skeleton near a snub nosed revolver, and some .44 ammo for it. This will be your primary short range firearm.

    Your main approach combat will, if not detected yet, dropping into stealth mode, scouting out what and where your enemies are, try and see what gear, if any, they have on them, and try to either A. Sneak past as many of them as you can to whatever your objective is, or B. Try and land some sneak attacks in order to thin out your foes, and weaken tougher ones, like Legendary enemies. When you see enemas, like Feral Ghouls or melee-ready Super Mutants, start c

    Your other weapons will consist of, if you have Far Harbor, a scoped Lever-Action rifle, or if not, a classic, and quite powerful, scoped Hunting Rifle. Alongside that will be the Flare Gun Preston gives you
