Falloutober Day 2 - Little Fish
I took today's prompt to mean, say, a little fish in the big ocean. Sal is a 19 year old girl in this big wasteland. I also included the idea that she feels incredibly small in the shadow of one of the most feared men of the Capital Wasteland (hence the literal shadow!)

Falloutober Day 3 - Tall Grass
The first thing I thought of? Harold. The sweet man. This is Aria meeting him for the first time.
I'm really proud of the way I used the brushes for the leaves and such.

Falloutober Day 5 - Hospitality
So, today I went ironic. Hospitality means welcoming and treating guests with kindness. The Enclave does... the opposite of that. They invade and take over, and who else but Colonel Augustus Autumn to lead that "warm" welcome?

Falloutober Day 6 - Et tu, Brute?
This is Noctua Iudicii. Also goes by Octavia. She is one of Caesar's right hand people, and most people don't know she's a woman at all. This angle was horrible to draw. She's holding, more than likely, Legate Lanius at spearpoint. She despises him.

Falloutober Day 7 - Riffraff
So! I'd like to thank @deerhillsniperservice for letting me use Arin, Alan, Arlen, and Aaron for this prompt. We've been discussing and now apparently Sal is part of the family, regardless of how silly her new brothers (Alan and Arlen might be...)
Col. Autumn is tired of their antics. I love them to bits.

Falloutober Day 8 - Rattle
This is shortly after the colonel found Sal. He had no idea what he was doing, and he didn't know how to soothe her... until he happened to find a key ring for a vertibird in his pocket. I think this is genuinely the cutest thing I've ever drawn.

Falloutober Day 9 - Parlance
Bit of a silly one today. I took the word parlance to mean the definition similar to something like jargon. So, Eden (in the suit) is discussing something with Sal, but because of his much more advanced vocabulary, she doesn't understand... any of it. Hence her confusion.

Falloutober Day 10 - Coven
I wasn't really feeling the whole witch thing, so I moreso went with the idea of "a lot of people in the same group" and did the Enclave. In the front, the one on the left is James "Mac" McNamara. The middle one is Sal. The one on the right is @deerhillsniperservice 's Aaron, Autumn's oldest son and Sal's brother (with @deerhillsniperservice's permission, of course). Sal, despite being loyal to the Enclave, is starting to have... concerns.

Falloutober Day 11 - Cat
A bit simpler, but today was a long, busy day so I did something simple. This is young Sal with a cat ears headband. A lieutenant found it while on patrol and brought it back for her, and she was incredibly happy about it.

Falloutober Day 12 - Legendary
I took today's prompt as, like, legendary as in a legend. And, who else in the wasteland would be a legend but Colonel Autumn. So I drew Sal, Aaron, Arlen, and Alan (in that order, also the boys belong to @deerhillsniperservice) and added the text to be like... they're "just" Autumn's children. Like they can't live up to his status.

Falloutober Day 13 - Forewarning
First off, the lady in top left isn't Sal. That's the Lone Wanderer (Aria). Sal, when hearing of her father's plan to take over the purifier, sees the scene depicted above her, with her father being shot. So she asks him not to go. But, if you've seen Day One, he goes anyway. And she thinks he's dead.

Falloutober Day 14 - Hammerbite
So, Sal got dealt a bad hand thanks to a pistol or other, so she needed bandages, and who would do that but Mac? (From Day 10) She has the biggest crush on him, and he's completely oblivious, and she's embarrassed and feels silly.

Falloutober Day 15 - Stale Winds, Still Waters
This is a continuation of Day 1 and Day 13. I figured it was the perfect thing for this day to reunite father and daughter. Just as Sal was about to kill Aria for what she had done to her father, Autumn returns. Alive. Sal nearly can't believe her eyes, but he's here. He's okay.
