Before the Courier, before Hoover Dam, before the NCR and Caesar's Legion went to war for the Mojave, there was a boy who wanted nothing more than to become a Great Khan.
The year is 2269.
Eleven-year-old Nick has spent most of his life as an outcast among the Great Khans of Bullhead City. He wants what most children take for granted: a place among his people, a name worth remembering, and the chance to prove that he belongs.
But the world around him is changing.
The New California Republic continues its march east. Old enemies are stirring. New powers are emerging beyond the Colorado. And as the Great Khans struggle to secure their place in a changing wasteland, Nick's attempts to earn his own place among them will draw him into events far larger than himself.
A Wasteland Odyssey is a long-form Fallout story beginning in 2269, years before the events of Fallout: New Vegas. It follows Nick and a wider cast across the changing postwar wasteland, with a focus on character development, faction politics, survival, warfare, relationships, and the consequences of growing up in a world where violence is often treated as a way of life.
This is ultimately the story of a boy searching for somewhere he truly belongs.
