In return to the new information, (Name) shared his own background about what it was like to serve in the army 200+ years ago, sharing old war stories, and talking about how life was before the Atom bomb was dropped. (Name) learned about Lucy and Duncan, about MacCready’s mayorship back in Lamplight, his Gunner background, and the insecurities he hides. The longer (Name) travelled by MacCready’s side, the more he learned about the merc’s life.
After using his charm to only hire the male for only 200 caps, the two decided to travel all across the Commonwealth, trying to hunt down (Name)’s son. Along (Name)’s journey across the Commonwealth, he stumbled on Goodneighbor, meeting a gun-for-hire Robert MacCready being harassed by two Gunners in a bar backroom after being led there by The Neighborhood Watch. He’s also met Piper, the sassy and strong-willed reporter of Publick Occurrences from Diamond City, who was on the same boat as him about revealing the Institute, and how they were responsible for snatching up people. He helped Nick Valentine from the hands of mobsters that use old Vault 114 as their hideout, establishing a friendship with the Synth. He’s met some friends known as Preston Garvey, who’s with the Minutemen, fighting to help people of the Commonwealth, which he backed. Everything wants to kill him, and all he’s done was sleep for 200 years, lose his wife, watch his son be kidnapped, and woke up seeking revenge.Įverything wasn’t as bad, though. Not to mention the asinine population of Raiders, Synths, and Gunners. He’s met his fair share of Feral Ghouls, Radroaches, Mirelurks, Bloatflies, and other horribly mutated creatures. He’s served for his country, so he had somewhat of a stable hand and level head when it came to combat- nothing could’ve prepared him for the hellscape that was known as ‘the Commonwealth’. Once he woke up officially and was let out of his cryotank, he was immediately thrown into a world where every creature was mutated horribly by radiation and anything with a life wanted to kill him. Life has been hard for (Name) ever since the Great War being led to Vault 111 and being put to sleep in the cryotanks, to only be ‘woken up’ to watch his son be kidnapped, and wife murdered.
