   This is a pretty neat idea, love how you gave each one a personality. Usually I get so caught up in the game's systems the first time around I scarcely think about the backstory. Well, doesn't help Fallout 4 puts down your backstory for you.
   
   Either way, great cast of characters!

      Actual and immersive roleplaying is pretty much impossible in this game unless you're following the standard path, but I have a very low bar for "roleplaying" to be satisfying - when I was a kid I'd take I'd play fighting games in training mode and just walk around the arena as I imagined some story for the characters. By the time I got to Fallout 4, I was already well-versed in blanking out actual gameplay for an idealized story. For the most part, I expressed their individual personalities in-game through settlements and their dress, what companions they took and et cetera.
      
      I enjoyed these characters, at least - to me they felt "iconic" in the way any character you use for a long time becomes. At the moment, I can hardly imagine playing as anybody other than Skiddah, but revisiting these guys was a nice experience.
      
      I'm glad you enjoyed it; thank you as always, Carnage
