Line 2:
== The Chosen One ==
 
[[Player Character|You]]. The protagonist of ''Fallout 2'', and a descendant of the original Vault Dweller from ''Fallout 1''. You've lived a good life in your relatively isolated village, but a series of failed harvest and a shortage on food has forced you to leave the village to go out and look for the holy G.E.C.K.GECK, and leave your mark on the wastland, in [[Wide Open Sandbox|whatever]] [[Video Game Cruelty Potential|way]] [[Video Game Caring Potential|you]] [[The Messiah|want]] [[Complete Monster|to]].
 
The game comes with three pre-made Chosen Ones you can select instead of creating a character from scratch: [[Barbarian Hero|Narg]], [[Scarily Competent Tracker|Mingan]] and [[Guile Heroine|Chitsa]].
Line 58:
* [[Mr. Fixit]]: Pretty good with repairing things.
* [[Squishy Wizard]]: One of the weaker companions, but he gets pretty effective with rifles once he reaches the higher levels.
* [[Verbal Tic]]: Apparently, he calls everyone who does him a favor "boss".
* [[Weapon of Choice]]: Prefers to stay out of combat, but seems to like pistols. He's much better with rifles and shotguns though.
 
Line 66:
A bartender in Vault City eager for adventure, the Chosen One can recruit him, as long as they aren't a slaver or [[Idiot Hero]]. Pretty good with all weaponry. Later goes on to father Rose of Sharon Cassidy of ''[[Fallout: New Vegas]]''.
 
* [[Badass Grandpa]]/[[Cool Old Guy]]: He's roughly about 50-60 and has a heart condition, but can still kick ass.
* [[Bald of Awesome]]: According to his character description.
* [[Deadpan Snarker]]: "If you ever need to learn somebody some manners up close and personal, slip me some brass knuckles, and I can tapdance on their face with my fists."
Line 109:
* [[Insufferable Genius]]: He really is very brilliant, especially considering his age. And he knows it and will make it clear to you.
* [[Jerkass]]: To say the least.
* [[Karmic Death]]: {{spoiler|If you leave him alive at the end of the game, the endgame narration will reveal he was stabbed to death by a jet addict in Thethe Den. And despite inventing the infamous drug, nobody will ever remember his name}}.
* [[Morally-Ambiguous Doctorate]]: It's unknown where he studied, but they clearly didn't teach him morals.
* [[The Scrappy]]: Seems to be an [[Invoked Trope]]. He is intended in every way to be unbearable: he's annoying, depraved, amoral, has a grating voice, green-tinted skin, is useless in combat, has a huge ego, and if the [[Player Character]] is female, he will attempt to drug rape her. He's also the only companion who will protest if you leave him behind and bribes you to keep him around by hinting he knows where a secret stash of Mordino goods are hidden.
