The Agustins

The Agustins of Vault 60 can clearly trace their lineage to pre-war days. Pre-war Agustins hail from a long line military men and women, and as Vault 60’s doors closed, they continued to serve under the overseer/datu as law enforcers. When Vault 60’s doors eventually reopened, the Agustins redefined themselves as legendary deathclaw hunters.

Agustins begin training when they are only eight years old, and the family’s rite of passage into adulthood is tracking and killing a fully-grown deathclaw mother and taking the largest egg in her brood as proof of the deed to the rest of the family (plus the deathclaw’s head, so the family knows for sure you did your job). Back in the olden days, they’d eat the egg, too, ‘cause times were rough and it’s not good to just waste a perfectly good source of protein, but most Agustins by the 2200s opt not to do that anymore because it’s kind of unnecessary.

Sometime during the late 2100s, the first Agustin became Vault 60’s first datu. It’s traditionally passed on from parent to child, but one datu failed to ever come back from a hunting trip. An Agustin was voted to become datu, but the results were close. The Agustins only beat another family, the del Rosarios (the the Rosarios, that is so redundant), by twenty votes. By the time Wally and Marius are born, the Agustins have been in power for only three or four generations. Although their rule over Vault 60 has been rather successful, the growing number of individuals who would rather have a del Rosario in power weakened the Agustin’s hold on Vault 60. Eventually, the in-fighting made the Vault susceptible to being overtaken by Legion.

Valentino Agustin/Valerius/Wally Augustine

Birthdate: 2263 (18 years old during the start of New Vegas)

(uhm, I don’t have any good sketches of Wally, but if you want to know what he looks like, he looks like Yamato Takeru from Eyeshield 21 lmao)

Born Valentino Agustin to Helena Agustin, datu of Vault 60, with Michael del Rosario. Helena and Michael’s marriage was supposed to bring peace between the two families, but after it was clear that Helena could not be convinced to pass on the title of datu to Valentino, the marriage just put a larger strain between the families.

Valentino was just four years old when the Legion overtook Vault 60 and enslaved most of its residents, including Valentino and his older half-brother Marius. He was renamed Valerius and aspired to become a Legion scout until the Battle of Hoover Dam when he chose to defect instead.

After gaining his freedom, he became a courier for the Mojave Express and chose “Wally Augustine” to be his new name. Wally because it’s similar to Valerius, and “Augustine” simply because he didn’t remember how to correctly spell or pronounce his original name the Filipino-way.

Now a free man, Wally simply wishes to find a new family to make new memories with. He’s extremely friendly and charismatic on the surface, but he’s still deadly. He loves animals (especially nightstalkers). He isn’t too keen on dogs until he develops a big ol’ crush on the King, and the King asks him to help Rex out.

Fun fact: He can breathe through his mouth and his nose at the same time.

Marius Agustin/Joseph Augustus

Birthdate: 2257 (24 during the start of New Vegas)

Datu Helena Agustin’s oldest son with an “unknown man” (it’s fucking Joshua Graham. I’m sorry. It’s Joshua Graham. Helena has trash taste in men. I’m so sorry.) After nearly all Vault 60 is enslaved by the Legion, Marius is recruited into the Legion at just eleven years old. His height, training as a deathclaw hunter, and relatively cozy life inside Vault 60 gave him an edge over the other recruits.

Marius became a centurion at only 18 years old, but there are many rumors that he simply got his position because he is related to another high-ranking Legion officer. Shortly after Great BBQ of 2277, Marius helps other Legionaries and slaves escape the Legion. When asked by NCR officials why he decided to defect and feed top-secret intel to the NCR, Marius simply replies, “I made a promise to my mom a long time ago.” During the events of the game, Marius changes his name to Joseph Augustus (the change to Augustus was deliberate on his part, unlike Wally who is just a DITZ) and has a small farm in NCR territory where he lives with his adopted children, Sadie and Logan, and his dog, Lovely.
