#charon fo3 headcanons

[ghoulfuckersincorporated]

any thoughts on charon and virgin reader??

As with most questions to which this should not be my response, I have many. This actually isn't the only ask for Charon x Virgin!Reader content, and I'm happy to give you a taste of what I think he'd be like while I finish up the one-shot I have for it.

Charon (Fallout 3) x Virgin!Reader NSFW Headcanons

Pretty terrified of the idea of fucking a virgin. Charon does not fetishize virginity or inexperience, but he won't be disappointed if he finds out you're a virgin...per se. He's disappointed for you that you're choosing him to be the one to take your virginity, even if the concept doesn't mean anything to you. You deserve better than him. Then again, you'd deserve better than him if you weren't a virgin, and you want him anyway, so it's not a deal-breaker by any means. Just don't be shocked if he seems nervous or distracted.

If he doesn't see you take Rad-X with his own eyes beforehand, he'll make you take some, even if you already have. If there's none around, well. Tough. You won't be doing more than fooling around. He's stubborn, and if you've never had sex before, then you've definitely never had sex with a ghoul before and have no way to know how your body will respond. If there's no Radaway for you to use afterwards, same story. No radiation countermeasures, no love.

Tries his best to be sweet, or the closest he can get. It doesn't come naturally to him, kind words and soft touches and such. It never did in his pre-ghoul years so long ago, and the life he's lived since then has only made him harder, colder. Still, he can kiss you softly, pet and caress you as gently as he can. Maybe think of something nice to say (though that is a hard "maybe"). He'll hold your hand when you get nervous and even cuddle with you a little when it's all over, another move that isn't typical of him.

He's worried about how big he is, but he's also just worried about his lack of finesse in general. He's a large, lumbering guy with big, clumsy hands...hands it isn't hard to forget the strength of in the heat of the moment. That looming fear of his own strength isn't an unfounded one; you'll likely come out a little bruised no matter how gentle he tries to be. Spends a lot of his energy during sex holding himself up off of you so he doesn't crush you with his weight if he's on top.

He'll guide you if you want (or need), but by and large, he'll prefer if you're the one in charge. What do you like? How naked do you want to be? What position do you want to be in? If you're so virginal that you're both unknowledgeable as well as inexperienced, and thus unable to provide much input that isn't right in the moment, he's gonna keep things as simple as possible.

Secretly spends the entire first time the two of you have penetrative sex assuming you'll regret it sooner or later. You'd think that would ruin it for him, and it certainly...colors it, but overall he's determined to make the best of what he's been offered and try to show you a decent time. Hopes that if he can at least make it good for you, you might regret it a little less.

Has difficulty finishing. He normally does anyway, as he has trouble relaxing enough to be in the moment a lot of the time. But the problem multiplies tenfold if he knows it's your first time; all the fixating he's doing on you, monitoring you for signs of distress or pain, distracts him from his own pleasure. He might be able to relax enough to cum if you finish him off with your hands or mouth, but he likely won't climax otherwise.

Won't touch you again for at least a few days afterwards. Wants you to have time to properly recuperate more than he wants to feel you wrapped around him again (which is a LOT). Even if you came out of that first time rather intact, he'll treat you like he absolutely savaged you.

The possessive animal part of his brain is suddenly a lot more attached to you afterwards, and he's even more protective than he was previously. It's probably just a coincidence.

Can we get a Charon nsfw alphabet? 🥺 please for the holidays?

Charon NSFW Alphabet

➼ Word Count » 1.0k ➼ Warnings » Size Kink, Marking, MDNI ➼ Genre » NSFW, Romantic

A - Aftercare (what they're like after sex)

Charon isn't the greatest at aftercare, but he certainly tries. He'll carry you off the bed, place you in the nearest bath (or general water source), and wash you. He doesn't speak, just silently does his best to take care of you as you lean back in his arms.

B - Body part (their favorite body part of theirs and also their partner’s)

He likes the way your eyes stare up at him when he's on top of you. There's something about the sheer amount of trust they hold that turns him on.

C - Cum (anything to do with cum, basically)

He likes to cum inside of you (he's sterile after all), although he does sometimes worry about the amount of radiation you'd contract when he does so.

D - Dirty secret (pretty self-explanatory, a dirty secret of theirs)

He gets off on the idea of you squirming underneath him and loves the thought of keeping you trapped.

E - Experience (how experienced are they? do they know what they’re doing?)

He's only ever slept with a few others before you, but he's got enough experience to feel confident in what he's doing.

F - Favorite position (this goes without saying)

Charon likes being on top of you. He loves seeing how much smaller you are compared to him and how easily it would be for him to crush you under his weight.

G - Goofy (are they more serious in the moment? are they humorous? etc.)

No, he's always serious. Humor is dumb, especially in the bedroom.

H - Hair (how well groomed are they? does the carpet match the drapes? etc.)

There are a few bits of red hair down there, but most of it's gone due to the radiation.

I - Intimacy (how are they during the moment? the romantic aspect)

He's quiet, maybe whispering a few terms of endearment into your ear, but that's it. He likes to keep these moments as intimate as possible, meaning he'd rather not let anyone else hear your whimpers.

J - Jack Off (masturbation headcanon)

He masturbates every once in a while if you're busy, but otherwise, he'll grab you by the back of your shirt and yank you a bit to let you know.

K - Kink (one or more of their kinks)

He has a size kink but that's the farthest it goes. He's fairly vanilla, however, if you ever wanted to suggest anything he'd gladly oblige.

L - Location (favorite places to do the do)

Anywhere that he can lock the door. He refuses to let anyone walk in on you, and if they did, he'd contemplate shooting them.

M - Motivation (what turns them on, gets them going)

Seeing you be all sweet and polite. It makes him want to take your face in between his fingers and stare down into those lovely eyes of yours. You're so much more different than the others who've held his contract before and he finds the change so... thrilling.

N - No (something they wouldn’t do, turn offs)

There's nothing he wouldn't do. You give him the word and he'll go through with it.

O - Oral (preference in giving or receiving, skill, etc.)

Charon prefers to go down on you, but he'd be lying if he said he didn't adore the way your eyes looked up at him when you sucked him off.

P - Pace (are they fast and rough? slow and sensual? etc.)

He likes to go rougher. If you're not covered in tears and sweat, then he didn't do it right.

Q - Quickie (their opinions on quickies, how often, etc.)

He doesn't really like them. He feels as if they're too much of a bother to actually go through with and would much rather just wait till you both have time.

R - Risk (are they game to experiment? do they take risks? etc.)

As long as it's something you want. He'd never experiment with anything that would cause you permanent harm like radiation or any type of scarring.

S - Stamina (how many rounds can they go for? how long do they last?)

4-5. Charon's a pretty bulky guy and has a ton of endurance. He'll go for as long as you need him too.

T - Toys (do they own toys? do they use them? on a partner or themselves?)

He doesn't own any and would prefer not to use any at all. He can give you everything a toy can and would like to keep it that way.

U - Unfair (how much they like to tease)

Sometimes, but he normally prefers to just get straight to the point. He's a service dom and loves pleasing you the fastest way he can.

V - Volume (how loud they are, what sounds they make, etc.)

Besides the occasional grunt, he's not very loud.

W - Wild card (a random headcanon for the character)

Although he prefers to keep sex disclosed, he loves leaving a trail of hickeys along your neck for good measure. It helps to ward off other men and gives him a slight feeling of pride in what he's done.

X - X-ray (let’s see what’s going on under those clothes)

5 inches long and really thick.

Y - Yearning (how high is their sex drive?)

It's fairly average, he gets horny about 2-3 times a week, but that's all.

Z -Zzz (how quickly they fall asleep afterwards)

Charon doesn't like falling asleep after, opting to clean you off and watch over you while you rest. He likes it better that way.

[nerdygoth77]

I’ve noticed something about Charon!

After every enemy he shoots and kills, he always fires an extra round into the corpse. Now....Maybe I just smoke way too much weed when I play Fallout 3, but I swear I've seen Charon do this multiple times.

I've replayed Fallout 3 a couple of times and Charon is always my go to companion. (After I get a fuckton of caps, smh) And this most recent play through I have been staring at his character a bit more than usual.

When you recruit Charon and he kills Ahzrukhal, he shoots him twice, even though the first shotgun blast did the job just fine. I've never paid this much mind, thinking it was ONLY just because of his hatred for Ahzrukhal. But now I've noticed he does this with all enemies! (Well most, he and Dogmeat kill shit fast af and I don't always see it)

This is just kind of interesting to me! Always making sure an enemy is dead by doing a double tap is a great reassurance in the apocalypse. It totally makes sense for Charon's character as well. He is a perceptive person, and has probably had more than his share of bad experiences with things not being quite dead. I also wonder if he was taught this skill or if he learned it the hard way?

Even if this is just my imagination it’s something neat to think about with his character!!

[super-duper-mart]

charon is absolutely the type of ghoul to say he hates music then sings along to all the songs on the radio as him n lone wander the wasteland

[hancocksleftnut]

Some Charon Head Cannons I Finally have the Balls to Share:

He was a US Green Beret captured in Anchorage by Chinese and Russian Special Forces in 2076, 11 months before the Great War and had many experiments done on him while a POW.

He was deployed at 28, one of the youngest in his squad. Charon was born in Pennsylvania and came from a military background, later joining the US Army at 19, soon after the USA announced war against the Republic of China.

In the end, he would be the only survivor from his squad, all others having been executed or dying from the Dachau-Level experiments.

As tensions around the world heightened, the US government burned all records of him and his squadron, considering them casualties of war.

As a POW (Prisoner of War) his physical stature, mental fortitude, and expert combat training made him a candidate for a “Reprograming Operation” by the Russian KGB where he was the only successful test subject.

After months of brainwashing he was finally assigned to a KGB Spy who was planted in the US government, where he was designed to assassinate and perform other reconnaissance operations.

However, the Great War broke out mere months after he was “assigned” and his contract made many unfortunate passes before reaching the Lone Wanderers.

Charon’s previous employers all had dark, ulterior motives that mainly used him as a deviant errand boy. When he becomes employed by the LW, he almost feels at peace. Though he will forever live with PTSD, he is able to put his guard down in certain circumstances, giving him small glimpses of joy and happiness again.

Until he becomes to care too much, and becomes over protective. The LW unknowingly reminds him of his pre-war life. When there was still hope and a dream of change. He doesn’t know why, but he clings to their selflessness. He watches people abuse the LW’s kindness, and then get stuck in a cycle of people pleasing because they are the Wastelands Last Hope.

[ghost-qwq]

Fallout HCs about video games cuz I'm absolutely batshit insane about these characters

(Fo3, NV and 4 but it's only characters I am crazy normal about)

Fo3 (Butch, Charon and RJ)

Butch

I'm being so honest with you, I think he'd LOVE rhythm games

He's a big music guy to me!!!

Rhythm games player,, he also would play the fuck out of multiplayer fps games

but Lone would have to make him stop because he gets really mad when he loses

He's fucking horrible at puzzle games also, he makes Lone solve puzzles for him but totally not because he needs help

He just uh... Thinks Lone is too dumb to figure it out... Yeah...

Charon

Okay I know I picked the characters but I'm so clueless for him

Maybe fps but idk

Actually this guy likes puzzle games

He watches Butch fail horribly and silently judges him

Puzzle games and like... Games with specific tasks you need to repeat

I'm thinking like Potion Craft and Sticky Business

bro would love cleaning games I think

PowerWash Sim and Viscera Cleanup Detail are his beloveds

RJ

This kid would play multiplayer fps games and absolutely kick ass too

He's the mean kid on mic telling you how shit you were...

He gets mad when he loses and quits

But not before saying that he's never playing that game again

... And then he's playing the same game the next day

He's such a little hater I think he'd say all kids games are for babies

He would LOVE to play them though :(

Would sooner kiss a Deathclaw than play a horror game though...

He'd act like he's not scared until he physically couldn't hide it anymore

FNV (Veronica, Arcade, Benny, Boone, Raul and Vulpes)

Veronica

Fps 100%

She's the one beating Butch all the time and she's having a blast doing it

Maybe also sorting games?

Ooh exploration games even

I barely traveled with Veronica but I feel like she would get really deep into the lore of whatever game she's playing

Unpacking fan I feel

I think she'd like ARGs too

She'd play slime rancher and throw tars into the sea as soon as she sees them

Arcade

He feels like a strategy game player

CIV player

Probably also likes cleaning/sorting games

I don't think he'd play video games very often... Sort of just a thing he does when there is NOTHING else to do

Probably would play Niche

Maybe Spore

I honestly have no clue with him beyond that

Benny

I'd like to start this by saying that he's comically bad at every game he plays

Other than gambling ones

He plays strategy games and loses every single time

He could not win a game to save his own life

Only games he's okay at are like... Ones it's hard to lose,,

And house flipper... He feels like a house flipper guy if he had to play

He also plays the Sims,, he loves that game so much

Boone

Really challenging myself here

I think he'd be good at fps but not really like them very much

Idk why but he feels like an rdr2 player to me a little

He also plays Plants Vs. Zombies because he's great

Idk he absolutely doesn't play games ever and when he does it's like,, card games

Boone is not the gamer of the group

Raul

Fuck oh God why did I put him on this list

Also a house flipper kind of guy but unlike Benny he's actually good at it

When he plays games it's to relax !!

He's playing fucking Stardew Valley and having a nice time

He plays Golf With Your Friends with the Courier...

Kinda feels like a Terraria player but he has actually no clue what he's doing,,

Plays Minecraft but only to build a house then turn the game off

If anyone tries to teach him a game he pulls the old man card

He will not play a game if he doesn't want too...

He's just "too old to figure it out"

Vulpes

Like Arcade he also plays CIV

But he's annoying about it somehow

Strategy and puzzle game player

No matter the game he acts like he's better than you for playing it somehow

Plays Terraria like Raul but he knows what he's doing and won't stop being a bitch about it

He acts like whoever he's playing with is stupid for not understanding whatever game they're playing

Fo4 (Nick, Deacon, Danse, Curie, Preston and MacCready again)

Nick

He's just like Raul tbh

When he plays a game it's to relax or with friends

He also plays Golf With Your Friends... Probably with Ellie and Sole

I think he'd like playing Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes...

Jackbox games too

He likes having fun with friends okay? :( let peepaw play a damn game

Probably would also like PowerWash Sim

Maybe even Slime Rancher

Deacon

I'm struggling more with what games he WOULDN'T play

He'd play multiplayer horror games with everyone and NOT do what he's supposed to

Not because he's uh... Scared or anything...

He's in the Railroad, obviously he likes Detroit: Become Human

Idk why but he feels like he would love OneShot

BattleBlock Theater kind of guy 100%

Like I said, I have no idea what he wouldn't play...

I think he'd play anything with his friends though

Kind of guy to find the absolute worst quality game to play and get it for everyone so they can all suffer together

Danse

Strategy games.

Or games with a very direct path

I think he'd be overwhelmed by open world games

Too much to do and not enough direction on where to go first

Survival games I think he'd like too

Hates horror games,, he would never admit it but he always gets jumpy

I honestly don't think he'd play anything other than strategy games without being pushed but shh.... If he were a gamer

Curie

Cleaning games or games that focus on science

HUGE Niche fan

She has no clue how to play a video game but she knows science!!

CIV player but she doesn't attack anyone unless they attack first... She just wants to make her cities and make everyone in them happy. That's literally it

Preston

I think he's in the same boat as Nick but he can't pull the old man card

He's just not a big fan of video games

But as long as he's playing with friends I think he'd have a good time

Probably would hate horror games too...

They're fun until it gets actually scary and then he doesn't want to play anymore

Honestly, I think he might like Don't Starve

Idk why... He'd play Wilson I think

Or Wendy

MacCready again

look he's older now

He still plays multiplayer fps games but he doesn't get as mad at them

He doesn't say as mean things anymore... And when he says it he says it to himself

I think Butch got him into rhythm games as a kid but he isn't good at them

100% would play video games with his kid.

He'd play like,, bugsnax when Duncan is older and lose his mind

I'm being so honest with you I think he's not good at any games that aren't fps...

EXCEPT. Stardew Valley. He would never in a million years admit it but he'd loved that fucking game.

PLEASEEE CHARON NSFW HCS IM BEGGINGGG

Lots of requests for Charon in the inbox! I'm hard at work on several, currently! Thank you for subscribing.

Charon (Fallout 3) NSFW Headcanons 2

Wouldn't describe himself as a "tit" or an "ass" man (not that he would deign to answer that question aloud if asked; he'd probably just roll his eyes and ignore it), really. If anything, he's attracted to softness in general. Loves a partner with a belly, or even just enough fat to hang over the waistband of their pants. He wants to bite the flesh there, but almost certainly won't for fear of you thinking he's trying to eat you or something. Would enjoy a nice tummy pillow for a nap.

Doesn't masturbate much, but once he's in your employ, he both finds that he has more safe time to do so (you're fond of renting rooms in settlements when possible instead of roughing it, and he won't complain that you don't want to sleep out in the open where he has to fret over you more), as well as more...inspiration. Spends much of his silent days analyzing you when he's not otherwise occupied, studying every curve and angle of your body, searing your image into his brain so he can shamefully think about you on his cock as he makes himself cum while you sleep.

He isn't opposed to getting completely naked when the two of you have sex, but he almost never does. In fact, generally, he's closer to fully clothed than nude, simply because he's focused on getting you naked, on feeling your skin, on getting inside you. If you show clear interest in undressing him, he'll help, but otherwise he doesn't generally bother doing so.

Early on, he'll act oblivious to the way you push for privacy; the contract says he's supposed to protect you. How can he do that from fifty feet away? In reality, he just gets a thrill from being nearby when you undress, when you bathe, even if you make him turn around. Hearing the clothing, the water sliding over your skin is enough to get his blood churning. Eventually, you just accept that that's how he is. He sees it as a win.

Doesn't completely trust himself to manage his own strength around you. Basically all he remembers at this point is how to commit violence, how to inflict pain, but you're coming to him looking for safety, pleasure. Trusting him to give you those things. That trust means a lot to him. He constantly worries at least a little about accidentally hurting you if things get out of control. If you want rough sex, he will be hesitant, often trying to cut you off and distract you with other things he knows you like instead of acknowledging what you're really asking for. Once he sees how much you enjoy rough treatment, he'll come around a little, but you'll never completely relieve him of the fear that he could truly hurt you one day.

Fo3 Companions Living in Megaton With Lone

➼ Word Count » 0.6k ➼ Warnings » None ➼ Genre » Platonic/Romantic

Charon doesn't really have much of an opinion on the matter. If this is where you want to live, then this is where he'll follow you. Moira is always stopping by to ask if he could grab her something in a place that's just a bit too irradiated for her to do it herself, so he eventually refuses to answer the door for you. He'll gladly do anything else though, and he's not picky about the decor.

Clover doesn't mind, wherever you go, she'll go. She likes arranging things around the house and putting flowers in vases and whatnot. She does her best to keep the place as clean as possible and, although she covered him in graffiti, gets along decently well with Wadsworth. Moriarity will definitely try to manipulate her into some sort of contract so that he can have another "worker" alongside Nova, but other than having to keep an eye on her, she's easy to get along with.

Living in Megaton reminds Star Paladin Cross about when she escorted James here 19 years ago. It makes her feel slightly nostalgic being here again after all that time and seeing all the different changes that have been made. She doesn't mind how you decorate it and is happy with whatever as long as she's allowed to have a weapons workbench in one of the corners. She and Jericho might get into a few altercations from time to time, and she's always telling you about her gripes with Nathaniel, but she has enough manners and self-control to refrain from street fights. (more so for you're sake than hers).

Jericho is the trashiest roommate on this list, he doesn't even bother throwing things away. He'll just pile garbage into a corner until you decide you'll throw it out. The good news is, none of your neighbors are going to be trying anything with you since you're living with the town's local raider. Jericho also frequently gets into arguments with Wadsworth and eventually just locks him in a cage upstairs, so you can forget about having a butler helping you pick up all the junk he leaves around the place.

Butch will beg on bended knees for you to pay for the wasteland explorer theme for the house. Nothing would make him happier than having Moira wheel a motorcycle into the house. Overall, he's a decent roommate. He'll leave a mess in the living room and leaves his clothes everywhere, but other than the average frat boy shenanigans (expect there to be beer bottles everywhere), he's not so bad.

Besides him accidentally breaking things, Fawkes is probably the best to live with. He keeps the place relatively clean, keeps people out, and is just an overall joy to be around. He's sweet to all of your neighbors, even if they're open about not wanting him around. In all honesty, he's just happy to be out of that vault. He'd be happy anywhere and he especially loves having his own little nook for him to read and study. Soon enough you'll have a live-in doctor.

Every day, RL-3 will wake you up early so that you can begin your 5 a.m. workout routine. There is no resting when the possibility of communists lurking is high. He'll keep you and the other residents in line. Megaton will have a competent police force in no time, but the locals are gonna be upset with how demanding and loud he can get. Some (Jericho) might even try scrapping him for parts.

You'll get no complaints with Dogmeat. Everyone loves him and the kids that run around are always playing with him. Moira might try to train him to get her things, but other than that, you'll have no issues living with him.

Requests are open! Any requests, can be very self-indulgent!

I'm also willing to write for my own OCs, and I may occasionally write headcanons about my own characters. Thank you!

[punkiio]

thoughts on lone wanderer/charon???

Depends on how it's done.

It's hard to do things with some of the fo3 companions because we know such little about them. All we know about Charon is that he was brainwashed into thinking a piece of paper was a contract, and that Ahzrukhal had it before the Lone Wanderer and Ahzrukhal treated him horrible, which is why Charon immediately kills him.

A romance happening during the events of Fallout 3? No. I think it is strange to have a romance between the two of them that soon, especially if the LW is still in possession of his ACTIVE contract. The power dynamic makes it feel gross, and consent would be such a hard thing to determine with him. He will do ANYTHING the LW wants him to, how is that a healthy romantic relationship? He can't say no to anything. He is still brainwashed. It's an abuse of power over someone who CAN'T say otherwise.

I think in order to make it work, it will take TIME. He needs to unlearn everything he was brainwashed to believe, and then and ONLY then can something maybe develop. It will take years, but I'm hoping you guys can make your LW patient enough and not try to pursue him when he is not in the right mental place for it. He needs to be taught independence and freedom, he needs to become his own man. Anything less of that is a no no to me.

Now when it comes to age, that's also a hard thing to talk about with him. We all know the LW is 19 during the events of Fallout 3, but who knows how old Charon is. Was he around the same age when he turned? Was he much older? We simply do not know. Both seem possible, but I think it's safe for someone to headcanon him to be around the LWs age when he turned into a ghoul. Not only that, but I'd just make his story/character so much more sad imo. A young man who was brainwashed at a young age, never got to be his own person. But maybe the LW, being forced to mature at such a young age too, is able to learn these things together, once the LW is able to get rid of the contract for good.

I personally don't ship my LW with Charon, but these are some thoughts I've had about Lone Waderer x Charon for a good while actually.

[danses-with-dogmeat]

What do you think the companions from FO3/FNV/FO4 are?

Top, Bottom or Switch?

FO3/FONV/FO4 Companions as Top, Bottom, or Switch

I think I saw somebody else do this recently, but I figured I'd add my opinions as well, cuz why not? Also, this was purely based off of my personal first instinct, and I went through it very quickly, so these are subject to change 😂

I go more into their preferences (for M!FO4 and M! FONV companions, at least) in the How the Companions are in Bed post, if you want to do a deeper dive, lol.

Let me know if you want to see anyone else for this!

Sort of NSFW below, but not really. Just the subject matter, I suppose. 😅

Butch: Switch

Charon: Top

Clover: Switch-- bottom leaning

Cross: Top

Fawkes: Bottom

Fallout 3 Incorrect Quotes #3

Lone Wanderer: Well...that's cute! Does that mean you snuggle together perfectly?

Butch: No, it means that if you take one away, the only thing the other is good for is stabbing.

Butch: Clover, can I talk to you for a second? Clover: Yeah, what’s up? Lemme guess. You and Charon are having problems and you want me to teach you how to kiss? Butch: What? No, stop that. I know how to kiss. I’ve read books.

~~~

Butch: Would you stab your best friend in the leg for 10 million gold? Charon: You stab me, and then when my leg gets better, we buy a big-ass house. Lone Wanderer: You can stab me too, then we'll have 20 million. Charon: Good thinking.

Bites Charon from Fallout 3.

That ghoul got me like no others. Red and him have such a fun dynamic to write about.

The "I don't take any of this apocalypse seriously" person vs "Everything needs to be taken seriously otherwise you will die" person.

Red can't take anything seriously, that's usually what happens when you take away the threat of death from someone, so them travelling with Charon, who has seen death so many times and practically knows the grim reaper by name, is making them realise that not everyone is like them and they probably should be more careful with other people's lives.

They're also both monsters in their own rights, one more metaphorically than the other. Also, they're both pre-war fuckers who have probably seen the worst of the US military and government before it all went to shit and can bond on their shared hatred of it.

AAH I LOVE FALLOUT SO MUCH. Someone can rip this game universe out of my cold dead hands before i stop talking about it.

[kharonion]

I've honestly been contemplating this post for a long time, both because I've been editing as I've been fleshing him out/characterizing him... and I've just been anxious to. But, well, it's about time I grab this by the horns and put it out there.

Charon headcanons. Let's get at it.

All of these opinions are my own, and I in no way claim them as 'canon'. This is merely my personal rendition/interpretation of the character.

▶ BACKSTORY/FAMILY.

He turned ghoul in his mid-thirties, before the Great War.

His homeland is Ukraine; growing up, he was Khorkov Nikitovich, son of renowned violinist Beletrovia and a father he never knew the identity of. He and his mother immigrated to the United States, promised safety in exchange for his enlistment in the military's super-soldier prototype program.

Much of his initial knowledge of American culture and language is thanks to his stepfather, Russell. Charon still has faint recollections of homeland traditions, but the many years on US soil has dampened them significantly.

Buried deep is his native language; he can't speak anywhere near fluently anymore, but some ekes out here and there (i.e. his pet name for Gail, pchelka), and often times not purposefully.

Like his mother, Charon plays violin. He's not done so for centuries, but it's muscle memory; when he and Gail find the Soil Stradivarius, he plays it with a practiced ease, as if he'd never stopped.

As a teenager (before the program started in earnest), he got a pair of angel wings tattooed to honor his mother, who he viewed as his guardian spirit; aptly enough, even through age and ghoulification, the ink remains, faded and patchy as it is.

▶ ... AND EVERYTHING ELSE.

Without realizing, he sometimes hums The Beatles while he's performing an intuitive task such as cleaning his weaponry. (See his dialogue in which he references 'Happiness is a Warm Gun': "If that is what you wish, then it is what I shall do. I must say, that I find happiness in a warm gun.")

He tends to be rather emotional--quick to temper, prone to holding grudges, but by the same token, is passionate and loyal to a damn fault.

Though he's often dry and flat as he was trained to be, he has a tendency to let slip some snarky shit once in a while. Maybe a joke or two, as a treat (which usually ends up on the darker side of humor).

The massive patches of missing skin and exposed muscle cause him to run a lot colder than most--a big reason he hardly takes off his tops unless absolutely necessary and tends to wear jackets.

His low intelligence score of three does not mean he's unintelligent. Sure, he has nowhere near many others' level of book smarts, but he's plenty wise in other facets: military stratagem, weaponry, survival tactics/skills, etc.

He's grown to accept the whole 'big dumb lapdog bodyguard' visage that many see him as because it keeps people the hell away from him. However, he absolutely detests being treated as one, and he isn't afraid to express that (i.e. his dialogue lines "I'm nobody's errand boy." / "I've saved your sorry ass enough.").
