1 2 4 11 12 20 for the oc ask!
Thanks for the ask! :) Sorry it took so long, but I never get asks so I was taking my time and reveling in it lol <3
1. Which Fallout game are they from? So, I made Felina for Fallout 4 in the time between when it was announced and when it was released, and I ended up changing a lot about her once I actually played the game and also tried to loosely tie her to 3 and NV, but it's a thin thread
2. Which faction(s) did they join and which did they destroy? Why? She's a huge advocate of the Minutemen and the Railroad. She joined the Brotherhood of Steel for the free power armor, but that's it (and to steal a vertibird, but that's a different story). She tried joining the Institute for Shaun, but it didn't work out. She ended up betraying the Institute and the BoS. As for the why, it's mostly Hancock's influence.
4. Give us a summary of their backstory. Felina is a Mexican-American that grew up in the southwest US. She met her late husband Nate when he was stationed at Nellis Air Force Base. Once married, Nate was stationed to Hanscom AFB, and they moved to a suburb outside of Boston where she resided when the Great War took place, taking shelter in Vault 111 when the bombs fell.
She felt she didn't have any control over her entire prewar life due to trying to meet societal expectations and fit rigid gender roles. She viewed the old world as irredeemably corrupt and felt jaded, frustrated, and trapped. Hancock's non-judgmental nature and the anarchic freedom afforded in the apocalypse is helping her find footing she never had before. She's still working through some things, but ultimately feels that the fall of humanity wasn't a bad thing - that it was unavoidable, and that the world can be rebuilt better than before with the right guidance.
11. Their biggest flaw? Do they recognize it as a flaw? She's a bit reckless and overconfident sometimes due to feeling like she understands the rules of this world better than the old one. She doesn't really see this is a flaw. She has a chem dependency, which is also Hancock's influence, but nobody's perfect, and she feels like the positives he's brought into her life outweigh the negatives. She recognizes it as dangerous, but also views chems as the closest substitute for post-apocalyptic depression meds and tries to closely monitor her (and Hancock's) use.
12. What are they most insecure about? Being alone, but she's not ready to admit that. (That's another flaw; she's probably objectively codependent on Hancock).
20. Do they have any hobbies? What are they? Felina plays guitar/sings, but she doesn't regard herself as very good at it. She occasionally likes to cook and enjoys "playing house" with Hancock as a novelty, but if she has to do it all the time, she gets bored. Also, is sex a hobby?
