The Ferret Business 2 – Vaults of Fortune

[THE STORY THUS FAR]

Welcome back to The Ferret Business, Bandit….

…is what we WOULD say if you actually made it back home safely!

Unfortunately a rival corporation, the Feathers of Parliament (FOP), captured you as you traveled back home. They digitized you, and have locked you away in their ultimate Game Server, all in hopes of getting control of the item that saved you : The Sword of the Cosmos.

But the FOP have made a huge mistake. Neither of you have the sword, but they do have you. And you have us, The Ferret Business. Together, we can destroy their systems from the inside out, and get you out of there and back home.

WELCOME TO THE FERRET BUSINESS 2 : VAULTS OF FORTUNE!

[FEATURES]

• What Is it : A spinoff of Wold’s Vaults, which itself is a spinoff of Vault Hunters 3rd Edition. Includes all the fantastic work of both dev teams
• Story and Quests : An extensive, narrative quest book that covers everything Vault Hunters, as well as many of the other mods in the pack
  • Completely optional! Following the questlines give you guidance and rewards, but nothing is gated behind quests!
