Unusual things/playthroughs to do?

[Milly]

I want to replay the first fallout (I've played too much the second) and I would like to try new things. I'm thinking of doing a throwing/science character, even if it serves not purpose. It doesn't matter difficulty or a optimal pathaway, just looking for ideas, it could be anything, character approach, selected things to do, combat playstyles, unconventional suggestions...

These are mostly pretty run-of-the-mill, but for the sake of completeness in case you've missed a few, some of my favorite "colorful" playthroughs are:

*Low-Intelligence
*Hand-To-Hand(and/or Melee)-Only
*Lone Wolf Pacifist (No party members, no kills. Bonus points if you've got low physical stats. Double bonus points for forgoing power armor.)
*Murder absolutely every living thing in the wasteland (and again, bonus points for forgoing power armor).
*Recruit every single party member and keep them all alive throughout the entire game.
*Roleplay your game to the hilt. Decide on who your character is and try to make all decisions in-character, without using metagame knowledge or exceeding what you think someone of their intelligence score would be capable of. Carry a realistic quantity of food and drink at all times and use some up on each party member every time you stop. Divide resources (including caps) evenly among party members. If you really want to go the extra mile, only put skill points into skills that you've used or that you would have had reasonable opportunities to learn something about since you last leveled.
*Any or all of the above in self-enforced Iron Man mode

Have sex with Davin, and keep him as your only NPC for the entire game...good luck, because the man is pure shit as a NPC.
