#goat 11

The prisoner, a man with no memories and a will for a good future.

Goat,  his real name and everything lost to him. Awoken in an abandoned prison cell alone with no memories and wearing a jumpsuit fashioned with a deadly collar he cannot detach.

Any paperwork on his past and convictions went unfound and all Goat had to go off was the number plaque that fallen off his Cell 1409 and with the wither and wear on it he mistook for the word ‘Goat.

Goat didn’t know for what reason he was in this prison and for what reason he needed to have such intense security in the explosive collar that clung to his neck like a noose.

He took off into the empty desert to find some meaning to his life. 

However, Things went south when he entered the Mojave Area.

5 years prior to The Prisoners arrival there was another, another man known as Goat, Subject one the Courier. it seems the people of the area have heard into my [The Authors] ‘Goat Theory’ and came to expect Subject one to become the Savior of New Vegas’s problems only to have Subject one become overwhelmed and Disappear. 

However in Subject ones time in the Mojave he made grave enemies on the Strip, this including the current leaders the Geckos. Having got Benny Killed, Benny’s men paired with the omertas took down House and Claimed rulership over the strip and began to rage against freeside and local groups.

So when Goat, Subject 11 entered the Mojave sharing name and vague description to Subject One, word went straight to the head of the Strip and the hunt began.

Unknowing of what was the come, The prisoner, Subject Eleven came to a very similar entry into the Mojave to the Couriers. 

Late at night, dark sky, no stars and the lights of the Strip in the distance. the Geckos found Goat and were keen to make sure he would die in the name of Benny’s death. 

A shot to the eye for nostalgia, hand broken for what Benny felt when he was crucified, and a broken leg so he wouldn’t be able to crawl out of his grave this time.

Stars aligned for Goat that night as he laid dying in his shallow grave. 

Much like five years ago Goat was saved by a Securitron and a Doctor. 

Days after Goat was saved he awoke in Goodsprings, in the hands of the one and only Doc Mitchell and his New Assistant. Goat would recover for many weeks, days and hours. All under the silent protection of Doc Mitchell and the Robot who saved him, Yes Man.

The two knew this Goat wasn't their own from many years ago, but they felt as many others would come to feel, hope that this was a second chance at a better future. that maybe Myths be true and the man named Goat would save New Vegas. 

Yes man, while like many others of the Couriers past felt a sense of bitter anger at the Couriers Cowardly retreat from responsibility he also felt a sense of gratitude to the man who freed him from Benny’s plans and told him to make a life for himself if he one day could. So when News was heard of a man resembling Goat entering the Mojave anyone in the loop knew the Geckos would be after him.

Mitchell healed the broken man, replacing his eye and leg with prosthetic and getting him ready to get back out in the world without even the neighbors knowing of Goats existence for the entire long recovery.

in his time in Mitchells house with the doctor, his assistant and Yes man, Goat learned a lot of New Vegas’ dealings on the strip and the Chaos it under took on a day to day basis.

So when Fully Recovered Goat took it upon himself to do what the Courier Couldn’t

Goat has Now Traveled well over all of the Mojave fixing and helping every problem he could, nothing too small to be helped and nothing to be big to be tackled. Making many friends and connections and tearing down the savage Groups that ran wild on the waste He was beloved for more than his title.

Goat didn’t know his past, potentially full of terrible things, but he knew his future would be good.

He has currently taken power over the strip and returned the three tribes to their place, fixing up freeside and working hard as a leader.

Goat Never Learned of his past or why the collar, and sometimes he wonders is maybe he was the Courier who ran away long ago.
