I'd say adjust the age, but I am interested to see how you do this. Also, if you're going to narrate his childhood, maybe you should lower the age a couple years under 16. Makes your story more unique.

Let me play the Devil's Advocate/Lore Hound for a minute, three years after the Great War, in Chicago, he was born into the BoS. I don't think in three years the BoS would be in Chicago. It took them forty years just explore outside their little bunker. I also spotted numerous grammatical errors in the bio.

But, Lore doesn't really matter in a fanfic. Grammatical errors can always be fixed. I assume though that story is going to be told with him as an advlt in the Mojave Wasteland, investigating on behalf of the BoS. Or are you going to throw his childhood into the narrative also? Either way it would be fine with me, I just like to read stories regardless of their content(to an extent).

So in my opinion, go ahead and do it.
