Austin Hyperion
The main hero of the hour, Austin is a new arrival to Europe and a magnet for shootouts and trouble. Master of IndyPloys and understatements, the story follows his adventures as he accidentally gets himself involved in the workings of the many factions around Europe and Metropool. Most of which against his wishes.
- Expy: Of pretty much everyone's Fallout protagonist. He's witty, sarcastic, good in a gunfight, as modest skills in hacking and lockpicking, and can't seem to help but get involved in everyone's business wherever he goes.
- Indy Ploy: His standard operating procedure. His fighting style can be pretty well summed up by "run away, take pot shots, crack wise, and hope that something happens to help get me out of this mess."
- Nice Guy: When he's not being shot at, he's a pretty friendly and charming guy that seems to take a real interest in people around him, wanting to know their stories and getting involved in their lives.
- Beware the Nice Ones: Austin is a pretty amicable guy and fun to be round and talk to. He's also responsible for nearly a dozen on-screen deaths by chapter 5.
- The Teetotaler: One of his friends from his old gang died from a jet overdose, which is why he doesn't do chems. Another one died from poison in his drink, which is why he doesn't drink alcohol.

Brotherhood of Steel
Metroport
A major trade hub in Europe and the largest known city still inhabited by humans. It maintains a stable economy and a steady flow of caps due to the good trading practices and tough hand of their leader, Mayor Joseph. Mayor Joseph Compton
The mayor of Metroport and the main reason it's been able to become so prosperous.
- The Extremist Was Right: Uses the SMP to stamp out any disgruntled citizens and make sure nobody thinks about starting trouble. The SMP is corrupt to the core and there are several abuses, but at the same time, Metroport is the most prosperous city in all of known Europe.
SMP
The Secret Military Police. Personal security force of the mayor of Metroport, they are charged with maintaining order in the city and making sure nothing happens to upset the balance. They do this through incredibly corrupt and sadistic ways, but to their credit, Metroport is pretty prosperous.
- The Bad Guys Are Cops: Not so much 'bad guys' as they are completely morally unscrupulous. They are charged with maintaining order in the city, and prefer to do so by arresting anyone even remotely tied to a crime, and not really bother asking about whether or not a person was actually guilty.
Super Mutants
An army of Super Mutants organized under the military genius of Yuwen. Ordinarily, about as strong as, well, a Super Mutant. Together and under good leadership, they become a whole new league of deadly and dangerous, having taken over a large section of Europe and claiming more territory by the day. Yuwen
All the raw power of a Super Mutant combined with the brain of a tactical genius. He's managed to lead the Super Mutants across a nearly flawless and brutal military campaign that has so far taken 10 English counties and with no sign of being slowed down.
- The Dreaded: Anyone with any familiarity on the situation knows that Yuwen is a force to be feared.
