1-5 for teddy & 6-10 for lilah for the fallout ask meme !!!
Teddy
1. Which Fallout game are they from? New Vegas!
2. Which faction(s) did they join and which did they destroy? Why? He belongs to the Great Khans and, after he meets Arcade, the Followers. He destroys the fuck out of the NCR and the Legion. The NCR because of Bitter Springs (it was personal to him) and the Legion because fuck em.
3. What is their S.P.E.C.I.A.L.? S9, P1, E4, C9, I5, A2, L10
4. Give us a summary of their backstory. Oh great heavens. A very short summary: He was raised Mormon on an NCR ranch with his four older brothers and one younger sister. He got fed up one day, burned the ranch down (only he, his sister, and one brother survived), and became a drifter. Ran odd jobs, most of them ethically questionable bc they paid best. Eventually linked back up with his sister who pretended she didnt know him, then his brother who was in rehab with the Followers. He stayed at the Fort and was heart eyes with Arcade, but his brother was homophobic to them so Teddy left, causing his brother to OD the next day. Joined the Khans and stayed there for a few years before Bitter Springs happens. After that, he became an outlaw and basically hunted NCR with the Khans until he’s paid by the Mojave Express to deliver a pack of cards (Courier Three) and is shot by Benny (he got it wrong the first time). Events of the game happen, he pursues independent Vegas, then retires and lives a happy rancher life with Arcade afterward.
5. What’s their full name and does it have a meaning? Do they have any nicknames and how did they get em? Theodore Dawson. It doesn’t really, it just feels cowboy to me and I like the idea of a big mean man named Teddy. It does have a meaning in the context of his siblings though. Their names are Benjamin, Levi, Jacob, Noah, and Hannah; Theodore (named after his father) is the only name not found in the Bible.
He has a few “nicknames” that are just derivative of his name. When he’s young, he goes by Theo. When he’s a drifter, he goes by Dawson or Daws. After he finds his brother, he goes by Teddy (Arcade gives him the nickname). His bestie Amantis (@odd-ball-out’s courier) also calls him Bear.
Delilah
6. What’s their sexual, romantic, and gender orientation? Do they feel comfortable telling other people? She is a cis woman who is not attracted to (sexually or romantically) anyone. I guess rigidly she could be considered aroace, but really, romance is just something that she doesn’t prioritize, and sex has been completely ruined for her because she only knows how to use it to get what she wants.
7. Do they have any mental illnesses? How do they cope? Miss girl has PTSD from domestic abuse something terrible, but she copes by… uh… motions to her entire personality
8. Do they have any medical conditions? Is medicine/ treatment available for them? She is anemic, so she’s cold all the time and bleeds a lot if she gets injured, but there’s not much she can do about it in the wasteland. Just has to keep warm and avoid injury.
9. How much do they care about their outer appearance? What’s their “beauty routine”? How often do they shower/ bathe? She cares very much about her outward appearance because it’s really her bread and butter. Her whole theory of survival would be moot if she wasn’t hot enough to seduce people into giving her caps/info, buying chems from her, and underestimating her in gunfights. She doesn’t need to shower unusually often because pretty lady doesn’t like to get her hands dirty, but she maintains great hygiene for wasteland standards.
10. What do they fear the most? I don’t wanna say she’s fearless bc that’s not necessarily true, but there’s very little that phases her. She should be terrified of abandonment, but she intentionally keeps people at length so they can’t abandon her (which is… another problem entirely). Realistically, I guess the answer is that she’s most afraid of people she trusts getting angry/violent with her when she would never expect that of them.

26 & 27 for Lilah, 47 & 48 for teddy :]
Delilah
26. How do they come off to others? What first impression do they usually make? Scary and cold or warm and sexy/inviting, dependent on who you are and what she wants from you. She comes off as confident to any and all.
27. Do they prefer to travel alone or with company? Who have they traveled with if any? Current companion if any? Definitely alone, though she doesn’t do much traveling. Desdemona always pairs her with Deacon when she has to run for the Railroad, though she “resents” it (enemies to lovers, you know how it is). She prefers Drummer Boy’s company because he’s quiet, polite (ie just the right amount of snarky), and does what she says.
Teddy
47. What’s their favorite radio station and song? (post-apocalypse) He’s partial to Mojave Music Radio, but he listens to Radio New Vegas on occasion (he doesn’t like hearing the news bc hes usually on it lol). He named his pet fire gecko after Big Iron by Marty Robbins, but his favorite is either Love Me As Though There Was No Tomorrow by Nat King Cole or Heartaches by the Number by Guy Mitchell
48. What’s their favorite post-apocalyptic food? Are they a picky eater? Do they know how to cook? My beloved boy would eat dirt if he thought it would sustain him. He knows it wouldn’t, of course, but he’s absolutely not a picky eater. He likes bighorner and radstag (ik they’re not in nv shhhhh big boi like meat), and he loves agave. He’s also a great cook because he’s always had to be. Mf could whip up a pretty tasty dish over a campfire even without much to work with.
