On dirait qu'on a un mutant, une voix calme qui se dit. Il était assez loin du super mutant qui a offert l'occasion de le sortir ici et d'éviter les tracas plus tard. Se tenant sur une petite plate-forme de roche, un jeune homme a préparé son fusil à sniper. Le tireur s'est assuré qu'il était suffisamment obscurci pour éviter la détection. L'homme s'est rendu compte qu'il n'avait pas vu un deuxième super mutant. Voyant sa proie, il a remarqué que l'un d'eux portait aussi un fusil de sniper.
Soupirant à lui-même, il a baissé son arme. Il pouvait peut-être enlever le sniper d'abord, mais il ne pouvait pas se permettre que le deuxième mutant s'approche de lui. C'est un combat qu'il perdrait. Un fusil de sniper n'était pas toujours fiable pour avoir abattu un super mutant avec le premier coup. C'est une peau fortifiée et plus dure que celle d'un humain.
Au lieu de cela Edgar devrait se contenter de se faufiler autour des béhémoths. Il a fait son chemin le long des rochers furtivement en s'assurant de culbuter de temps en temps pour s'assurer que les super mutants étaient encore distraits. La principale raison pour laquelle Edgar a exploré les déchets était le besoin d'herbes. Les déchets connaissaient une période de « renaissance » qui signifiait une abondance de nouvelles plantes. Les meilleurs amis et camarades d'Edgar, Tali et Ray, avaient besoin d'une faune nécessaire pour des recettes spécifiques (tant médicinales que nourrissantes dans la nature), et Edgar était également en charge de la préparation des repas.
En continuant le long d'Edgar a remarqué que l'un des mutants était à la recherche de quelque chose. Il ne semblait pas posséder les mêmes maniérismes primaires que la plupart des super mutants. D'après ce qu'Edgar pouvait voir, le mutant s'empilait dans les livres. Cette distraction était suffisante pour qu'Edgar oublie qu'il se cachait. Il regardait curieusement encore quelque peu obscurci (bien que moins qu'auparavant).
Full Designated Name: Edgar Vargas
Nicknames or alternate names?: N/A
Age: 22
Gender: Male
Race: Bi-racial (Ethnically: Latino)
Appearance:



Edgar would conventionally be considered quite handsome. His skin is a light bronze in color, and his eyes are hazel. He has shaggy brown hair that he tries to keep gelled whenever possible. When he can, he enjoys fading the sides and back of his hair, whilst letting the top grow, but more often than not he's working with natural growth.
He is fairly athletic with a slightly larger body type than a runner's physique. His right arm is constantly covered regardless of what armor or clothing he is wearing.
During warmer seasons Edgar only wears a torn button up shirt that only covers his right arm. The shirt is reinforced with body armor and refitted arm protection made from robotic scraps. His free arm (kept unprotected for melee versatility) just has an armband on the bicep. He also wears gloves with a grip for climbing (though his ability to climb can be limited depending on the level of pain in his arm). He wears slim-fitting joggers that are also reinforced with scrap robotic parts. Lastly, he wears combat boots (and sometimes road goggles rest on his forehead).
For less combat oriented roles, Edgar is typically wearing casual attire: leather jackets, flannels, t-shirts, jeans, etc.
Sexual Orientation: Homosexual
General Personality and Outlook on Others: Edgar is a bit socially awkward having grown up with the Children. A bit brooding/quiet, he often prefers isolation, and is incredibly slow to trust. Edgar once saw death as a horrid thing, but has come to see it as a commonality in the wasteland. While he was no vault-dweller and still faced the obstacles of the wastes, he was relatively safe-guarded throughout childhood. He was quickly forced to grow-up working as a merchant (and occasional bodyguard) to survive.
Hobbies and Interests:
-Traveling
-Reading (pre-war books)
-Selling Goods
-Armor Crafting
Profession and Position: Merchant/Hired Gun
Recognized Past: Edgar was born to a retired mercenary father and a chem-addicted mother. Edgar's early childhood wasn't that far off from most wastelanders. He learned to survive; just as others did. After one particularly bad trip, Edgar's father sought to get rehabilitation for his wife. He had little alternative but to seek help from a settlement in Vancouver. The settlement could only afford to permit one entrant from the three of them. Edgar left his wife with the settlement to get cured, taking Edgar with him. The plan was to come back for Edgar's mom when once she was a bit more healthy
Struggling to survive with two mouths to feed Edgar's father would embrace a cult of people that worshiped radiation. These "Children of Atom" offered shelter to both Edgar and his father. Edgar (already six by this time) was incredibly weary of the group especially because he grew increasingly worried about his mother. Edgar's father dismissed his fears.
Fast forward nine years, and Edgar and his father had become living members of the Children of Atom. While Edgar remained skeptical he was obedient and far more sympathetic to the people who saved his life. Exposure to radiation began to affect Edgar's father quite noticeably throughout the years. He began using chems himself to dull the effects it had on his body. This only worked to deteriorate his mind, and Edgar's father became increasingly more aggressive. Feelings of deep-seeded insecurities regarding their family began to surface in unhealthy ways. It ultimately culminated in a fight between Edgar and his father. Edgar's father would attack his son with acid, though fortunately only managed to harm his right arm. The damage was still severe. The medics in the cult tended to Edgar's wounds. Whilst being treated, the High Confessor of the order told Edgar that he would do best serving as a missionary. With the world's vegetation slowly returning to its natural state- the cult worried that Atom's grip on the planet was waning. Once Edgar was healed he'd be escorted by a sister of the order.
Having grown up a quiet skeptic of the faith, Edgar was more than willing to get away from his father and from the Children. Once healed, he and Sister Kathleen embarked on a mission to spread the word of Atom. Edgar would try and leave peacefully multiple times, but never had the opportunity. He was still trying to gain feeling in his right arm, whilst learning to use his left. After months of traveling Edgar managed to build enough strength to leave Sister Kathleen. He attempted to sneak away from their camp at night, only to be confront by Kathleen. Sister Kathleen would not allow Edgar to abandon Atom, and attempted to subdue Edgar. The fight ended with Edgar killing Kathleen with a revolver. Traumatized by what he had done, Edgar had little other option but to leave Vancouver for fear of the Children finding him. Edgar headed for Oregon where he would eventually meet two merchants- a brother and sister (Tali and Ray).
Talents, Abilities, and Skills:
-Partially resistant to radiation: Edgar is slightly more tolerant when it comes to radiation exposure. However, prolonged exposure to radiation can affect the use of his arm for some time- causing numbness and a lack of sensation. This makes melee in radiated areas rather tricky. While he has a better tolerance for picking up rads- he is by no means invulnerable. Prolonged exposure can kill him about as easily as any other person.
-Sniper: Edgar's preferred weapon is a sniper rifle. He is much better at long distance range than in close combat. His right arm is not reliable enough (especially for drawn out fights) to try hand-to-hand combat approaches most of the time. Instead, Edgar enjoys attacking from afar and allowing his allies to move in close to weakened targets
-Revolver: Edgar's most reliable weapon in close-quarter combat. Edgar has become relatively adept at shooting with his left hand. He's certainly not the best shot, but it has saved his life on quite a few occasions.
Relationships with others: Edgar has become best friends with Tali and Ray- a brother and sister who both work as traveling merchants. Edgar has served as both a bodyguard and third member of their enterprise.
Family members and status: Edgar's parents are both still alive as far as he knows, though their relationship is shaky. They are both in Vancouver.
