James

James was always an inquisitive, meticulous and determined man; this personality led him to form or join a group of like-minded scientists, who were set on changing the wasteland for the better. Before the Lone Wanderer was born, James led an ambitious scientific endeavor known as Project Purity. He and his group of scientists, including wife Catherine and Dr. Madison Li, aimed to build an advanced water purifier within the ruins of the Jefferson Memorial, which would serve to purify the water of the Potomac. In the morning hours of August 17, 2277, James left the vault and returned to the surface. His assistant and friend Jonas who helped him escape was killed. The act of leaving the vault caused a crisis within, and the overseer considered the Lone Wanderer complicit in their father's plans. You're the Lone Wanderer, and you just so happen to have Bad Karma.
