Another sketchpage, by the one and only  pac

This is for another RPG campaign I am going to run, based on the old After the Bomb setting by Palladium. Of course, I am running it in FATE, and throwing in a few elements from the Fallout games. I like to mix it up. The subjects are a ghoul mercenary named Revenant and a little bunny named Christopher.

1. 2097. Revenant was following a group of slavers he had been contracted to eliminate by the mutant animal nation of Cardania. By the time he finally found them (and eliminated the small band of slavers to the man) the only two survivors were a rabbit mother and her infant son. And the mother had been mortally beaten by the slavers. With her last breath, she handed her son to Revenant, asking him to take her son back to the small village they had been taken from.

2. After the mother's death, Revenant found himself at a loss, holding the tiny rabbit. He didn't have the heart to tell the mother that the village she had come from had been razed to the ground by the slavers. Revenant had been alone for 75 years, ever since the plague and bombs had killed his own family and left him a ghoul. After some thought, he decided that he would not leave the baby rabbit to be alone in the world, and took him in. He named the boy Christopher, the name of his now long dead son.

3. 2099. Christopher is now two years old. For all that time, he has been raised by his ghoul daddy, and loves him immensely. Even at this young age, Christopher knew that Revenant was not his real father (no fur or tail, and missing skin) but as far as he is concerned, the ghoul is the best dad ever. And though his handwriting needs some work, Christopher surprises his dad with a homemade card.

4. 2104. Now seven years old, Christopher has quickly shown a quick mind and strong intellect. While the boy is very athletic, Revenant encourages him to exercise his mind as well. Years ago, Revenant found an old chess set. Playing together is one of their favorite pastimes.

5. 2107. Christopher is now ten years old. While he has known that Revenant was not his real father, he has been curious about his mother. Revenant had always been reluctant to tell him, waiting until the boy was older. Finally, after ten years, Revenant tells Christopher what happened to his true mother. The boy is shocked and outraged. He asks if the slavers are still around. Revenant tells him how he killed the band that carried out the deed, but the overall slaver clan is still out there. Revenant knows that the strong-willed rabbit will want to extract vengeance on the group, so he made a deal with his son. If Christopher will wait until adulthood to carry out his quest, Revenant will spend that time training him how to be a warrior.

6. 2111. Christopher is now 14 years old. For four years, he has trained hard with his dad. Even though he is just a teenager, the rabbit is well versed in hand to hand combat, survival skills, and the basics of weapons training. His desire for vengeance is powerful, but not so strong that he wants to rush things. His time will come, he knows. He wants to be ready.

7. 2115. Christopher is now 18 years old. At this point, he is long passed the basics. Now he is learning the real special forces skills Revenant learned in the US Army nearly a century ago. Christopher is well on his way to being a certified sniper, as well as a true combat operative.

8. 2122. The present day in the game. Christopher is 25 years old, and one of the most skilled mercenaries in the world. He often goes on missions with his dad, becoming a legendary father/son team. The most important skill Christopher has learned is patience. His day of vengeance is quickly approaching, but he is not in a hurry. They have a plan, and they aim to make sure everything has come together before they execute it. At this point, Christopher has earned his own mercenary name: Hare Trigger.
