OWB - Definition of Insanity (Old World Blues)

Who decides the definition of a word?

*Two centuries ago, a team of mental health specialists came together to found the "Calm Minds Asylum". They hoped to assuage the psyche of wartime america. A century after the bombs fell, Director Matheson's android assistant made the unusual choice to take control of the hospital and corporation, intent on completing their mission.

"The Calm Asylum", as it is known in the nearby wasteland, carries on in a bastardized form of its old world counterpart. The Orderlies carry guns and wear armor, and the doctors treat people for Deathclaw related trauma. And yet their mission remains the same.

With the chance arrival of Followers of the Apocalypse seeking employment, M.A.I.A. now believes the Calm Asylum is operating at sufficient capacity. It is time for them to stabilize America and treat its citizens.

Life in the nearby wasteland is about to change...*

Definition of Insanity is a submod for Old World Blues. It concerns a pre-war mental hospital that has become the focal point of a wasteland nation. It is up to you to decide if the Calm Asylum fulfils its ancient mission or follows a new path. Whatever you choose, you can rest assured someone will oppose you.
