Ascendant Election 2524 – Dr Stripes Brenner – Medic

For those that don’t know me, I am Dr Stripes Brenner. I have served as interim medical councillor for about 6 months now.

During that time, we have managed to save many lives at New Hope by applying emergency medical care following the sabotage and explosions, and subsequently created a medical centre to help serve their populace.

I also implemented the Shannon Protocol for your FEF teams, keeping daily bunker life secure by helping ensure no viruses or infections enter our society. 

Currently, I hold the position of key Ascendant medic while topside, and have experienced many of the threats and challenges our brave FEF teams face and deal with.

If you would have me as your Medical Councillor, I intend to continue promoting the health and well-being needs of the Bunker – ensuring quality and personalised care for all our citizens, whenever they require medical attention, and without prejudice or discrimination. I believe this is the fundamental role of your healthcare provider.

I have been proud to lead our Bunker medical team over the last 6 months, and will endeavour to continue improving our high quality medical coverage regardless of these election results. 

Ascendant Election 2524 – Captain Riley Evans – Soldier

I’m not here to claim I’m the best choice for the military council. There are others with more polished leadership or bolder strategies. I’ve never been the loudest voice in the room, nor do I seek power for its own sake. In fact, I did not intend to put my name forward at first. Some recent events however led me to take the chance on using my own voice.

I stand here because I know the reality of the frontlines. I’ve been in the trenches, faced the chaos of battle, and relied on the trust and grit of my fellow soldiers to survive. I have seen the bad and the good of the surface — as well as the bunker.

What I offer isn’t perfection — it’s hard-earned experience. I’ve made many mistakes, learned from them, and returned stronger. Every scar I carry is a lesson, and every decision I make comes from understanding the real stakes of combat, where survival is never guaranteed.

If you choose me, you’re selecting someone who values resilience, teamwork, and empathy. Leadership is more than just strategy; it’s about caring for those who carry out those strategies. I’ve seen the weight of sending people into harm’s way, and I’ll bear that responsibility with the respect it deserves.

I believe in leadership that listens, adapts, and stays grounded in the realities faced by our soldiers. My commitment is to the mission, our values, and the people behind them. That’s why I won’t promise perfection, but I will promise thoughtful, dedicated leadership. 

I’m not here because I think I’m the best choice — I’m here because I’m willing. Willing to serve with humility, to ensure no one is abandoned, and to lead with integrity. Quiet, effective leadership may not always be flashy, but it’s what gets the job done. 

At the end of the day, the choice is yours. If you choose me, you’re choosing someone who has been where you’ve been. Someone who has seen the ugly of the world. Someone who understands that every decision we make defines who we are as soldiers, and as human beings.It’s a long shot — but my aim’s steady, so better believe I’ll be ready.

Ascendant Election 2524 – Lieutenant E. ‘HAZARD’ Brenner – Soldier

Those of you who have served beside me in the FEF know me as Hazard or Prospect, but for those in the bunker who have never braved it onto the surface may know me from years of bunker service as part of our security department.

I’m going to keep it short and to the point, like any Brenner, I aim to Get Shit Done. 

I want to tighten security on our territory to prevent a repeat of recent history, no more enemy attacks on our posts, we can’t afford to lose what progress we’ve made to gaps in our defences. 

I want to address FEF pay, which will involve steps such as talking AICE and our council round to solving problems closer to home, and ensuring the correct personnel are going out to secure the objectives best suited to their skillset. We want every possible objective to succeed, not just the overall sortie. 

Lastly, I’d like to push for those objectives to be solved to their completion, not just addressed when they’re critical, only to be dropped when they’re not. My concern is enemies like Hive Vulcan becoming a problem again in the future, when instead we could wipe them out there and then.

It’s time to thrive, not just survive. Vote Brenner to Get Shit Done.

Ascendant Election 2524 – Assistant Medic Edward O’Brien Brenner – Psion

I don’t really have a Manifesto, Just saying. I plan on running to be a voice for those that are worried/angry about how psions are treated, confused by what is going on, I want to give them a voice without ties to a religious or strong political agenda 

I am a botanist/medic first,  an average day folk that gained psionic powers through a traumatic event and decided I’m going to try use them for betterment of the people.

I do believe we as people, both psions and non-psions just need to come together to Get Shit Done. More unites us than should divide us.

Ascendancy Election 2524- Alan Richardson – Crat

Bunker First!

That should be the first thought for everyone who lives in or is from Bunker Ascendant. Too long have we put ourselves at risk for others, others who would not hesitate to sacrifice us to save their own.

The FEF was created to recover technology, resources and intelligence to allow us to retake our rightful place on the surface. It now serves as a vainglorious elitist, dare i say it criminal organisation, working towards its own goals and believing it is above Bunker law.

We need to regain control of this radical element and use it for its original purpose, the betterment and survival of Bunker Ascendant.

I am not saying that we should not have allies, but we need to be equals in those alliances, not doing so out of fear, or from a position of weakness. I propose a full review of all current alliances and creation of formal documents to make sure the agreements and obligations are clear.

I stand with those forgotten masses in the Bunker, I will be your Voice and I will ensure that the FEF and all Bunker resources are used correctly and openly!

Many of the astute members of the populace will realise that this is the same manifesto i stood on last election! Nothing has changed for the better!

Vote for YOUR Bunker, Vote Richardson.

Ascendancy & Fortitude Election 2524- Mitchel Grant & Ali Lowen- Crat

Unity? Survival?

What do these words really mean?

We have been in communication since Ali in Bunker Fortitude uncovered a series of protocols from a PADD left over from the Network Occupation. These protocols had been corrupted by the Network however at their core they provide a framework for the organisation and management of multiple disparate societies that join together to form a single entity.

Our current Coalition of societies was a great first step, but its not enough. We have significant threats including the Network, Super Mutant Tribes, Hive, and more unknown beyond our current sphere of visibility. We have potential allies in The Office of the Home, AEGIS, and other societies yet un-contacted.

At the moment we put trust in a group of hired mercenaries to advance our knowledge, negotiate diplomacy, research new technology and defeat significant threats (military and other). And the FEF has done amazing things, without this collaboration of minds we would have fallen to any number of threats and challenges.

We are standing on a platform of reform. We need to change and adapt, the FEF protocol was written 500 years ago with a vision of what the future would hold, those people are not living in this reality and its time to move on. We will champion a referendum in both bunkers (and hopefully within the Free People) should we be elected. The intention is simple, form a single society out of the 3 main groups in the Coalition (with the option for currently unaligned groups to join).

One governing body rather than 4 or more, the goal? Not only survive, but thrive. Together we will achieve more than on our own. The positions within government will be open for any member to stand for, not restricted by training or rank, using the same voting system as now, with every member (regardless of location or current allegiance) having a vote.

No doubt this will seem strange, and after many of you have fought, bled and lost for your current homes it might not be an easy future to imagine. But we believe that it represents our best chance for a future.

Vote for us and we will do everything within out power to give you this choice.

We envisage many questions on our idea, we have small teams working in the archives of each bunker (and with DAHL) to work out what we believe the best structure would be. If you would like input in that, we would love to hear from you.

Mission 13 Ancillary Report – Major P Drake

This repost covers some of the non-mission information that I gathered from the last surface mission along with some items that were recovered.

Strange shields recovered at Super Mutant Facility

These 4 strange shield ornaments were located in the detritus of the super mutant facility. I’m not sure what they are but they were found in several location around the facility next to piles of rubble and bones. After a brief conversation with councillor fields, I believe she has a 5th though I do not have any other information on that design.

Android Super Mutant Facility

An android or robot of some kind was located at the super mutant facility, I hacked it and was able to activate it for another member of the FeF I’m unsure of its purpose but I do know that it was severely damaged. I was not able to retrieve it as by the time we returned from the time critical mission we were already pulling out and too spread out to return.

Laser Weaponry Design Schematics

These are a set engineering design documents that discuss laser weapons and several potential upgrades I’m led to believe, they have been given to Engineer Drake to further study and analysis.

Project Caduceus

How to Make a Terminator CPU Brain Chip From T2. : 8 Steps (with Pictures)  - InstructablesOne of the items that we were rewarded with for helping the Black hill boys was a computer chip, though damaged it still seams operational in a limited capacity. During the assault on the super mutant facility a motherboard was also found for the same project. After some investigation and contact with Dhal we were informed that it was a pre war program created to support the flagging National Health Service. Thru some engineering wizadry by the assembles engineers and my computer skills I was able to gather that the project can be “deployed” potentially aerially from its control facility, though as of yet I am unsure where that facility is.

The Black Hill boys

A tribe of Stricken from a settlement to the south of Fort Ned, they are part of a wider group of settlements. Though some were razed at the time by the super mutants there are several more in the area that could be contacted and explored.
