Where is this info found? With the dates and such I mean?

i hope my idea of U man bein Couriers bro or best friend is right

Any experiment from the BigMT would have to have started before the war like the Sierra Madre.

I would just like some sign that the Courier is a descendant of the Vault Dweller. If the Divide turns out to be where the Courier is from, I would like an item from the Vault Dweller/Chosen One to be with the Couriers stuff there.

It might be to much to ask and people might get confused and believe that the Chosen One went to the Divide after founding New Arroyo or some such crap. So it might not be such a good idea after all :ermm:

Unless it is worked into the story that the item is an heirloom.

@OP your options are so British...I don't even understand them. I'm going to take the word "Narked" to mean "naked" so I guess I feel naked about my courier having a backstory. Honestly it doesn't bother me much. I just finished playing Dragon Age Origins and did all of the background stories to get achievements (not worth it, my eyes bled for like 50 points) and I could have done without it. I think t adds to the mystery...maybe your courier lost a lot of their memory from getting shot in the noggin and can only remember certain things...meh, I'm sure it will all come together in the end. Playing DA games makes me enjoy everything in Fallout even more.

In OWB, there's a terminal in some rubble sitting outside a testing station that says the weather control tech in the meteorological facility Ulysses was interested in was being tested mass scale in a town called Hopeville. There is a satellite map, presumably of Hopeville, in the meteorological facility. The town is now in ruins, and it's one long road ending in a crater. It's reasonable to assume that the Divide is in Hopeville.

As for the timing, Joshua Graham says that the loss of the Dam would have been much worse for Caesar if the NCR's supply lines hadn't suddenly been interrupted. He goes on to say that said supply lines ran through the Divide, and that Legionnaire scouts reported something awful happening there. Since this was during first war at the Dam, it is again reasonable to assume that the Divide happened four to five years ago.



Utah and New Reno, sure, but the impregnation line is only available to Couriers with the Lady Killer perk, so it's as canon as hitting on Arcade with the Confirmed Bachelor perk or knowing what a fish is with high Intelligence. It just irritates me when people try to use a line dependent on a perk to say, "Straight male Courier is canon!"
