On October 23, 2077, the world died. The Great War started, and ended that same day, with much of the landscape rendered a radioactive, inhospitable wasteland. Some of the population was fortunate enough to be involved in the Vault Program, a series of fortified shelters buried within the earth, each with the intention of keeping a new generation of humanity safe.
But Vault-Tec, it seemed, had ulterior motives. Of the 122 vaults built, only 17 ever actually held up to their promised goal of protection. The remainder were used to conduct experiments on the unwitting population, whether they wanted it or not...
Which is where our hero comes in. Until recently, Kez was a denizen of Vault 18, kept sheltered from the world by close to two hundred years of isolation. Vault 18, you see, was fitted with a state of the art monitoring system, directed at the outside world, with the single caveat that said system was filtered through an AI that deliberately doctored the information it saw to make the outside world seem infinitely more hostile to human habitation than it already was. Deliberately fed constant misinformation about their conditions, the denizens of Vault 18 seemed completely content to remain sealed in their controlled environment for close to two hundred years... At least, until the fateful day when a sudden malfunction caused the mainframe to shut down.
When the maintenance crew finally managed to get the old computer working again, what they found was a chilling cache of edited data, coupled with the damning evidence of the original directive of the vault, known only to the overseer. The result was almost instantaneous rebellion, the populace for the first time having proof that they'd been lied to their whole lives. It was this group that forced open the vault door, opening it... into the Mojave Wasteland.
Kesi, or simply Kez, as he often goes by, happened to be a member of that first group to leave, and the world he found was one filled with gambling, drugs, violence, and all manner of sin. In short, the exact sort of place he felt he could thrive in.
A slight, slender figure dressed in simple leather armor, Kez nevertheless manages a unique appearance, bearing a stylized tattoo on his shoulder of the four suits, always kept visible. Despite his sheltered upbringing, he seems to thrive in the environment that New Vegas provides, and a place like the Hollow is no different. His natural curiosity and a tendency towards a brazen sense of adventure tend to get him in trouble at times, but he just as often manages to squirm his way out with a combination of skill, greasing of palms, and good old-fashioned dumb luck. Whether that luck will hold out in a place like this remains to be seen.
He doesn't quite remember how he got here, only that there was an intense flash of light overhead... and when he came to, he was in a place that was nothing like the wasteland he remembered... Funnily enough, one of his first contacts in the Hollow ended up quite forcibly introducing him to the local pastime. He's spent a fair bit of time stuck in
Kaze_Usagi's gut, and the poor skunk seems to have come to the conclusion that he actually likes this whole 'vore' business.

S.P.E.C.I.A.L. Stats
Strength: 2. Kez is, to put it bluntly, a bit of a wimp.
Perception: 6. He does, however, pride himself on a sharp eye, and an even sharper sense of smell.
Endurance: 4. Again, bit of a wimp.
Charisma: 7. While not quite a silver-tongued devil, he certainly has had to rely on chatting his way out of a problem before...
Intelligence: 6. He
was raised in a Vault, and as such did receive a better education than most... Not necessarily possessed of much common sense.
Agility: 6. He's not clumsy by any stretch of the imagination, and a slender frame does lend itself to being a little bit lighter on his feet than most.
Luck: 10. If there is one single thing that the skunk has come to rely on, more than anything else... It is his frankly absurd good luck. In dire situations, he always seems to come through ahead...
Traits:
Good Natured - Kez doesn't do so well with actual combat. He is, however, quite adept with most other skills.
Small Frame - Scrawny little thing he is.
Perks:
Swift Learner - He picks up on things easily.
Educated - Benefiting from his Vault-Born education, he seems a bit more ready to learn than most.
