      Many thanks for the kind words and comment Aza, much appreciated. I tend to be at my best when feeling inspired by a character that I really like and Lobo I have been working on for almost a year now developing his story and details.

    Very well written. Obviously I'm working my way through in the wrong order. I wish they would enable a way to reverse order our notifications.

    Intriguing, fascinating background. There had to be a wolf in there somewhere.

    Wonderful, wonderful little story, WGD. You've teased us with some of your thoughts on Jonathan Wolf's background, and it's really nice to see the actual story.

    The pics of Jonathan are awesome - love his George Michael look such as in the last shot. But all of his shots are great

    Love the set!

    edit: Okay, so I read some of the other comments after I posted mine - I see that Lobo is separate from Jonathan Wolf? Well "Lobo" or "Wolf" - it's all the same , just diff languages So now, if you get inspired to create another wolf, you can name him "Loup" and cover your French bases.

      Thanks Jumarbye!

      No worries, I don't blame anyone for being confused. Especially since Lobo was built of Jonathan. While I changed some things he is basically the same looks wise. I just decided to split the two - one is the soldier Jonathan and then Lobo will be the more wild one. I could have just kept the name the same I know but I wanted, in my own head, to split them up.

      Frankly the only solid guy is Fenn - he, Mac, and Dogmeat I have kept pretty good in their own world.

      I have been trying to come up with a new character for a while - Wolf, Jonathan, Jonathan Wolf .... now Lobo. All somewhat similar ideas.

      I mainly shared the story as I liked the images with Fenrir and wanted to share them. I am building lore on Lobo and trying to not make the mistakes I made with the others but will see how it goes.

      The whole idea of a rogue courser made more human by Fenrir and left on his own with a partial mind wipe and the WOLF AI (which is used by most of Fenrir's agents in this world except Fenn) just seemed like a great RP opportunity. Played him a lot this week as I had a few days off. He just made it back to RedRocket tonight after a grueling few days scrambling and hiding in the CW.



      I also finally got around to reinstalling FNV so I could continue Fenn, Mac (as Boone), and Dogmeat's (as Rex) adventure there I started last spring before my PC got fried. Got his game going again as well so maybe will do a story of their adventure back in time.

      This is Fenn in Fallout New Vegas:

    Very cool stuff Jon, and staying true to the Fallout way of creating "robotic life" , wich comes in Handy for the images you took of the proces.
    Lobo seems like a fitting name for him. It's nice to see (and follow) how many idea's of yours that you had during the past years come together in this character.
    I think images and your story work very well together , making it very cool to read and atch.
    I like the image of Fenrir appearing and ( so it seems) blocking the stream of data going in,..

      Thanks Windy :)

      Too many characters really but guess I can't help myself. Bit like Skyrim where I have Grim as a constant then make lots of other characters to consider. But adds to the overall world I suppose. So here I have Fenn, who is the constant (and also the closest tied to Fenrir since Fenn's body used to belong to Fenrir and Fenn has a small sliver of Fenrir's spirit in him) then trying a few others.

      I kept switching hair and style on Jonathan and realized what I wanted was two different characters. Hence worked on Lobo. Still not sure how far I will go.

      I also just re-started Fenn, Mac, and Dogmeat's game in FNV last night as well :)

      Many thanks James! Jonathan is still around as well but I decided I want to keep him shaved and military like with his own story. Lobo thus gets his own spin-off ;)

    This great introduction also gave me more of a glimpse into the thread that binds your characters together. I had seen references to Fenrir in many of your posts and yet not completely made the connections. Lobo has a whole book of stories in front of him and I suspect you'll find a way to intertwine him even more into the grand plot that runs in your head. Wonderful character development and I'm looking forward to the future chapters.

      Many thanks Jacob!

      Yea I always try to link everything through my over-arching idea of Fenrir as some nature guardian across time, space, and dimensions. Somewhat of a personal mythos I guess you could say. But in general put it more in the background and then focus on the more practical aspects.

      Lobo could be very easy to write for as a rogue courser on the run trying to get his memories back - and getting involved with the RR. He will also become a raider slayer. He has some bad run ins with them as he tries to adapt to the CW and forms a deep hatred of them.

    Whether just a biography or the beginning of a his story, I enjoyed this addition to Fenrir's 'world'! Excellent read! I like his looks too, but find this to be my favorite: https://c2.staticflickr.com/2/1979/44707903895_ab198c9d03_k.jpg

    Great shots all!

      Thanks! I have lots of ideas for this rogue courser on the run - lots of RP opportunities. Fenrir is totally in the back-ground here and only used at the start. Eventually Lobo might work directly for Fenrir but he has to prove himself ... and stay alive.

      By the way that shot you linked and Lobo - they are the same person base. I took Lobo and removed the dirt, used a slightly younger setting (tier 1 on the presets versus tier 2), shaved the head and beard. So different but otherwise everything is the same - eyes, mouth, nose, cheeks, facial bone structure. Just hair, beard, dirt, and little aging damage.

      Mainly to show the exhaustion and a switch from the robotic clean artificial life of a Courser to a somewhat lost man on the run. Also the work Fenrir did on Lobo's body had to draw energy from some where and it took it from the body itself which aged him.

      I didn't figure Fenrir to be a big part, but still, I loved the way you worked it. :D
      AND THANK YOU!!! That shot is SO added to my 'Friend's Shots' album!
