📖 4. Legendary Lore Entries – Iconic Suits

Each legendary Power Armour has a backstory tied to a conflict, region, or lost pre-War experiment. These entries could be discovered via holo-tapes, war logs, terminal memos, or surviving witnesses.


ðŸ”Ĩ Earthquake Maker

Log Title: “The Faultline Trial”
Origin: Prototype from a failed tectonic stabilization project on the West Coast. Used once during a Vault riot near an underground geothermal vent. The suit’s stomp caused a localized collapse that buried a dozen raiders alive. The suit was left impaled in stone—its user presumed dead, fists still clenched.


Electric Eel

Memo Record: “Ark Division R&D – Deep Current Node Report”
Origin: Built for underwater cable repair across irradiated riverbeds. Rumors say it caused a surge that shorted an entire Enclave outpost during an unplanned encounter. Found lodged in twisted rebar and coral in a sunken metro tunnel.


ðŸĶ‚ Scorpion Tail Vortex

Wastelander Myth: “The Sting in the Storm”
Origin: Raiders speak of a black-armored silhouette leaping off rooftops and paralyzing patrols with a snap of its tail. The last recording shows it surviving a plasma barrage with a tail lash that disabled an entire sentry wall.


🧠 NeuroLink Vanguard

Incident Report: “Experiment #EVR-2B (Revoked)”
Origin: Developed at a secluded Institute splinter lab. It required the user to mentally sync with the suit. Out of 30 volunteers, 29 failed. The survivor became erratic—claiming the armor “saw futures.” The unit vanished after it hacked its own shutdown failsafe.


💀 Dread Atlas

Vault Folklore: “The Thing Inside the Mountain”
Origin: Used to guard a pre-War Vault believed to house a nuke prototype. Legends say it was sealed in after detonating a failsafe device. Decades later, seismic readings hint it may still be walking. The suit’s reactor never failed.


🊖 Black Mirage

Lost Agent File: “Agent M41 – Asset Recovery Denied”
Origin: Covert ops suit from a now-defunct Commonwealth branch. Agents wearing this armor never returned… but neither did their targets. A helmet found in the Glowing Sea hums softly, even in silence.


🌋 Molten Core

Research Debrief: “Fusion Heatstrike Armor - Field Test 3: Uncontained”
Origin: Designed for lava field recon. A field engineer used it to collapse a volcanic cult’s cave temple by punching reactor rods into their geothermal core. Suit recovered melted and half-fused to the floor.
