On-Ramp

On-Ramp is a town introduced in the Settler's Guide Book supplement of Fallout: The Roleplaying Game.
==Background==
A small highway-side town located at the edge of the Commonwealth, On-Ramp serves as one of the last trade stops in Commonwealth before caravans exit the region. This reason alone has resulted in the Railroad in taking interest in the town, as its location makes for a prime safehouse for smuggling synths away from the Institute.Settler's Guide Book p.136: "The Railroad is interested in On-Ramp, a little highway-side town ideal for continuing its operations. It is one of the last trade stops before caravans leave the Commonwealth area, making it perfect for smuggling synths away from the Institute’s sphere of influence." The settlement hosts mayoral elections, which resemble "small-scale presidential elections" with rallies, donation drives and patriotic fanfare.Settler's Guide Book p.136: "One of its mayoral candidates, Governor Gladbrook, sympathizes with their cause but is not doing well in the polls. The settlement’s election resembles a small-scale presidential election, with rallies for the residents to attend, donation drives, and a fair amount of patriotic fanfare."
==Gameplay==
The Railroad seeks to influence the recent mayoral election in Governor Gladbrook's favor,Settler's Guide Book p.136: "The Railroad asks the characters to get involved with politics where they can, to ensure that Gladbrook’s political opponent, Governor Bradbury, does not win the election, but to be careful not to draw attention to themselves." who is sympathetic to the synth cause, but struggling in the polls. His opponent, Governor Bradbury, originally ran a settlement in the past, using kickbacks from traders to make himself rich, while pricing the residents out of basic necessities.Settler's Guide Book p.136: "Years ago, Bradbury ran a different settlement and would take kickbacks from the traders that came through, making him rich while his people were priced out of affording necessities. Private correspondence in Bradbury’s home suggests he might try the same scheme in On-Ramp. They can reveal this truth to influence the election’s outcome, and ensure their candidate wins the mayoral position."
