I’ve had new vegas on the mind and figured it’d be nice to revamp my courier a little bit after the last couple of years… They haven’t changed too drastically but I did want to update their design for sure! Template used can be found [HERE].Rest of the detailed information under the cut! Background: Finn grew up on their family farm further west in NCR territory- they often helped their brother and father in the fields and with the brahmin, and learned to hunt at an early age. As they grew up, extended hunting trips would become a necessary retreat from a father who began to take out his frustrations with his own deteriorating health on his family. During this, often in an attempt to extend their time away from the ranch, they learned how to survive off the land, taking an interest particularly in the different uses of what little wild plant life grew. Eventually they did leave home, shortly after their brother had left to go further west, but instead found themselves traveling more aimlessly- anywhere away from what had been home was good enough. During sometime in this they became involved with the followers of the apocalypse, getting a much more formal education than the scattered books and passed down knowledge they had available on their farm. During this they took up an interest in botany and horticulture, an interest rooted in their own time as an amateur survivalist, and turned their eye to the mojave and the unique flora that flourished there. Eventually during this they found themselves working as a courier for the mojave express, wanting to use it as an opportunity to travel while still working, until they were given a fateful package to deliver…Personality (In Depth): Finn is not much of a people person. Growing up in an isolated setting left them fretful of how much they fit in, and if or how much other people notice this, making their interactions with other people at first come off as stiff and restrained. Tries to keep to themselves but their altruistic nature/ seeing others in need can be one of the few things that coax them out of their protective shell.Trust doesn’t come easy with them- Finn will accept the help and company of others, but often warily. Expect them to probably be constantly questioning the other person’s motives, ready to take flight as soon as things look like they might go sour. However, gaining their trust isn’t impossible- just a lengthy process. Finn is choosy about the company they keep after all.Those who do manage to earn their trust see a Finn who’s much more willing to let their guarded facade down- very chatty if you can get them talking about something they know a lot about/ like. Humor also comes naturally to them when relaxed, though their desire to be entertaining/ fun to talk to with friends can cause them come off as being unable to take things around them seriously. Along with that they tend to be extremely loyal to those they’ve befriended, a bond that they take quite seriously.Finn’s essential mode of dealing with things is ‘do no harm but take no shit’- They do their best to keep out of trouble and other’s business, but won’t hesitate to retaliate if so much as threatened. Which when nervous (which admittedly, tends to be a lot of the time), they tend to take anything that way, causing them to potentially come off as aggressive.Extra/ Misc. Notes:Zilla is a runty gecko that Finn’s traveled with since she was a hatchling, and has to keep her on a toddler leash in more populated areas because they tend to overstimulate/ agitate her and she’s only semi-tame so she tends to take bites outta people when upset (Finn has their own amount of scars from times she’s gotten nippy like this).Finn refuses to eat any old pre war packaged foods, with the exception of fancy lad snack cakes/ boxes of sugar bomb cereal, it’s hard to find anything else that sweet…Has a soft spot for robots. Feels pretty comfortable around them and finds them fascinating, one of the reasons they immediately decided Yes Man was a pal.Likes taking trips to Jacobstown, does a lot of hunting in the mountains around it and poking around in old mine shafts.Can play a mean harmonica solo! -- source link
