J.E. Sawyer's Fallout Role-Playing Game is a Fallout tabletop role-playing game which was being created by J.E. Sawyer, one of the makers of Van Buren, Black Isle's canceled Fallout 3, and the lead designer and project director of Fallout: New Vegas. It was started on October 23, 2004 (exactly 73 years before the Great War). Just like us, J.E. used a wiki, but one in which only he could edit pages.

Coverage in this wiki

While Sawyer no longer works at Interplay and the game is non-canon, it includes details about factions, locations, and other plot elements from Van Buren, such as Caesar's Legion and Hecate; therefore, such information may be considered semi-canon, just like Van Buren leaks, as long as it doesn't contradict further canon sources. During Van Buren development, Sawyer was responsible for the New Canaan and Burham Springs design documents and a document called "Josh's ULYSSES part 2", mentioned in the Boulder design document.

Character system

Main article: Simple

The game's character system is called "Simple". It is a simplified version of SPECIAL without the Luck statistic. It includes perks originally designed for Van Buren.

The system is not finished, not professional, and the author makes no claims that it is great or even good.

J.E. Sawyer's wiki for the system is not online anymore, but all of its contents were transferred to Fallout PnP Vault, a sister project of Nukapedia.
