Borderlands: Search For The Vault!
Series-Related Sci-Fi Action Roleplay


Story

So, you want to hear a story, eh? One about treasure hunter? Haha, have I got a story for you! Pandora! This is our home, but make no mistake, this is not a planet of peace and love! They say it's a wasteland, that it's dangerous, that only a fool would look for anything of value here. Then, perhaps, I am a fool. But do not be fooled by what Pandora appears to be!

There was a legend. Many people tell it; The legend of the Vault! My father would always go on about the Vault, even with his dieing breath. Advanced alien technology, infinite wealth, fame, power, woman. . . So, you can understand why some little kiddo's with these stories grow up to become Vault Hunters! Well, I have a story you may not believe but I tell you it is true! The Legend of the Vault is real, and it is here on Pandora. And, ehh, lets call it a Guardian Angel appeared to guide the Vault Hunters to their prize.

And what do you know, they found it! However, it was nothing what they expected. When the Vault opened, the brave Vault Hunters were met with. . . The Destroyer. And they destroyed it. But that was all. The Vault sealed shut again, and the Vault Hunters were left with nothing but empty magazines. That was two hundred years ago. My great, great, great grand father sold to them, as I am going to sell to you. It's about that time again, two hundred years since last.

Your tale begins right here, with the brave Vault Hunters, the Guardian angel and most importantly, me.

So, who's getting off the bus?
