A game I really like is Fallout 4. Sure its hated by some fans, but I still really like it. But what does this have to do with South Park? Let's say that Vault-Tec came to South Park, and Cartman's lie to Butters about a meteor striking the town is actually a nuclear bomb from Canada. The boys evacuate into the vault and are frozen in hypersleep until they wake up and have to live in the wasteland. Well there are four factions in the Commonwealth and each of the four boys would each fit in a certain one. Which faction do you think each character would belong in?

Minutemen: Stan Marsh. The Minutemen are soldiers who are colonial era enthusiasts who do nothing more than want to help people in the wasteland. Stan is the one that usually is the heroic type who solves most of the problems in South Park. Yes, sometimes he does it for fame and glory but other times he does selfessly help people because he cares. The Minutemen are all about just improving society for no additional cost, and Stan is the one who fits that category.

Railroad: Kyle Broflovski. The Railroad are all about freeing cybernetic humans known as Synths from their creators and releasing them to be free in the wasteland. The reason why Kyle fits in this faction is because Kyle has a heavy heart and wants to help certain individuals. However, his kindness always backfires and makes things worse than they already were. This is exactly what occurs within the Railroad. Letting Synths loose into the wasteland only causes more issues not just for humans in the wasteland but for the Synths too. Because of Kyle's compassion even though it does not make things any better, this is why he fits perfectly in the Railroad.

Brotherhood of Steel: Eric Cartman. The Brotherhood of Steel are a religious military consisting of salvaged pre-war technology and massive firepower. They kill Super Mutants, Ghouls, and Synths and also believe that only they can be trusted with technology. This faction is just perfect for Cartman. Cartman loves to be epic and action packed so he would enjoy mowing down enemies with a minigun. He is also extremely prejudice towards those who are different from him and would totally enjoy killing anything he hates. He's not religious, but he would say "Go with christ". To Cartman's joy, the BoS supplies him with power armor to ensure that he rarely has to move his fat tushie on his own. Cartman's selfishness and hate is just what the Brotherhood needs to keep their operations going.

The Institute: Kenny Mccormick. The Institute are underground nerds with the best advanced technology and food supplements but perform extremely questionable methods. The Institute isn't for Kenny by his personality, but he would be there just out of pure luck. Kenny was replaced with a synth. So everytime Kenny keeps dying, it's not the real Kenny. It's a synth Kenny much to the boy's ignorance. The real Kenny was kidnapped by the Institute. The other scientists meant to kill him when they replaced him with a synth, but his uncorrupted pre-war DNA (due to his undying curse) has made him a valuable asset to the Institute. The time he spent in The Institute has increased his intellect (even though he's still smart) but he's still Kenny! So of course Kenny did build female synths with giant breasts and slept with five of them at once.After all those years, Kenny would finally have it all when he becomes the director of the Institute. Eventually, he would then be looking for his friends except Cartman.

(Did I say four factions? Oops! I forgot about the Nuka World DLC! There is actually a fifth now!)

Nuka World Raiders: Butters Stotch (Professor Chaos). An oblivious Butters would travel to his favorite theme park for sentimental reasons. Unfortunately the park is taken over by Raiders but Butters is so naive that he thought they are the new workers who made the place "spooky". Butters is scared when the raiders make him go through a dangerous obstacle course, but he becomes Professor Chaos and survives. Professor Chaos becomes the new overboss and this park now belongs to him. Butters is best as a raider because he doesn't know right from wrong too well, he's naive, and he would be blinded by the awesome stuff he recieves by being a raider leader. Most of all, Butters also toughens up from being picked on all the time. As Professor Chaos, he is now a powerful threat to the wasteland with a nice base and his own army of minions.

What do you think? Do you have a different opinion? Do you also know any other South Park characters who would fit in any of these factions?
