Vault Dweller (Fallout 76)

The Residents of Vault 76, also referred to as the Ressies, are the player characters in Fallout 76. On October 23, 2102, twenty-five years to the day since the Great War, they emerged from their vault for Reclamation Day and began exploring and recolonizing Appalachia.

Background
The Residents are people from Appalachia, the United States of America and various parts of the world with different ethnicities, religions and set of unique skills.

Those individuals who were selected to enter Vault 76 represented the cream of the crop of the United States' citizens. Each was chosen for their unique skills and temperament making them the "country's best and brightest," which made managing them a challenge for the vault's staff. The resident had won awards in the vault, evident by the display case in their quarters for contributing to the vault for volunteering for the canned mystery meat experiment when no one else would eat it, or the isolation program, the vault hall monitor award, and various other awards. They also trained for when they would emerge using the educational vault films such as Let’s Work With Others, The Power of the Atom, Laying the Cornerstones and Atomics for Peace. As part of their wasteland survival, they learned to use the C.A.M.P. They spent their lives in the vault using their skills for the "betterment of the vault."

The overseer advised the Residents to run as fast and far from Vault 76 as possible when the door was unsealed for Reclamation Day.

In the residents quarters, the player character can find several awards in a display case for their contributions to the vault revealing some of their backstory/life in the vault over 25 years. They were also a golf and guitar player evident by the golf and guitar set in their room.They seem to be efficient with musical instruments as evident by how they interact with them in the world such as the guitar found in their quarters as well as an avid reader and board game player as seen also in their quarters.
