Something strange is happening in Appalachia...and that's saying something. Brahmin have gone missing from Foundation and folks have been seeing strange lights in the sky.

Trader Red is on the case...and she aims to find out what's causing all the commotion, and if she can, put a stop to it.

Join Trader Red as she finds herself face to face with "Invaders from Beyond!" a Fallout 76 Community Event.

Well, look what the Molerat dragged in. Folks in these parts call me Trader Red, and I heard tell that ya’ll are newcomers to old Appalachia. Mind you, these hills aren’t quite what they used to be…full of Super Mutants, Ghouls…things we call Scorched, and a cryptid or two might cross your path.

But you’re darn lucky to have little old me as your tour guide. See, I ain’t from around these parts…I’m a backwoods Tennessee gal, through and through, but let’s just say that Appalachia is my home away from home.

Figure you guessed the whole Trader part, right? I’m the best at finding the things folks need…guns, ‘shine, and the odd doo-dad and thingamajig that might tickle your fancy.

And finding those things means I go all over…from Morgantown to Lewisburg, and Berkeley Springs to Watoga, no one knows these hills like Trader Red.

So, if you wanna see the sights, learn some history, and not get eaten at the same time, follow old Trader Red here as we wander through the Wasteland of post-war Appalachia, and maybe, just maybe, uncover some juicy tidbits and secrets along the way.

There is an old saying in the Wasteland…War, war never changes.

Humanity’s progress was defined by our conflicts…over land…over ideas…and finally over the resources needed to fuel that very progress.

On October 23rd, 2077, the Great War reached its climax and nuclear fire rolled across the planet.It only took a single day to wipe human civilization from the earth, nearly humanity itself.

Our weapons had become terrifyingly powerful…but war, war never changes.

In the years since, the survivors were caught in a constant struggle against the horrors of mutation and radiation…beset by the rising tide of barbarism…and authoritarian remnants, utilizing technology from the old world to attempt to conquer the new.

A new tune and new dance partners, but war, war never changes.

In the Capital Wasteland, one such conflict pitted the Enclave from Raven Rock against the forces of Elder Lyon’s Brotherhood of Steel to secure the technology of Project Purity and the promise of clean drinking water…and all the power and influence that comes with it.

Ending in the destruction of the Enclave at Adams Air Force Base, it appeared that yet another bloody chapter of human conflict had come to a close…again, without our species learning any meaningful lessons.

Or had it?

Fleeing the destruction, a single damaged Vertibird struggled to maintain altitude as it crossed over the broken landscape…and unknowingly headed to a date with destiny, nearly two hundred years in the making.
