Blackfoot Radio - A Fallout western radio mod
Connor Daugherty for Radio Host - John H. Belden
Description:
Belden is the ghoul host of Blackfoot Radio, broadcasting from post-war Wyoming. Before the bombs, he was a photographer and rancher who worked freelance for old companies like Nuka-Cola, Grey Tourtoise, and Sunset Sarsaparilla. Now, he lives a quiet, reflective life with his glowing pet ferret Lantern, sharing old songs, stories of the high plains, and local weather reports with a friendly touch. His voice blends weathered wisdom with understated humor and lingering nostalgia. He’s not a radio showman; he’s the kind of man who’d talk to you on a front porch over coffee.
Requirements:
- Main host of the radio
- Around 300 lines as of now, mostly intros and outros for songs, ad reads for weather and local caravans, and Belden's own stories
- Belden's voice is weathered and dusty, but still warm, like a grandpa
- High quality audio, akin to other characters in the Fallout games
- (Optional) Must sound like a ghoul (raspy, dry), but still clear and expressive.
- (Optional) Familiarity with the Fallout franchise is recommended but not needed
(Optional) Occasionally sings in a plain, folksy voice - musicality is a plus, but not required.

This is Blackfoot Radio, bringin' you old tunes, older stories, and the occasional squeak from my partner, Lantern.
Just one photo. A boy sittin’ on a fencepost. Barefoot, jeans rolled, hair like straw. He’s got a stick across his lap like it’s a rifle, but he’s smilin’ so wide it splits the frame.And he’s lookin’ straight at the lens, like he knows what’s comin’ but don’t mind.
(In singing voice) [If you can't or won't sing, as if telling a story] I saddled up north where the thunder don’t cry,; The rails had all rusted, the water was dry.; The sky didn’t speak, just stared with one eye,; And I rode where the tracks run dry;
