Joshua Graham (Burned Man) Speculation

Post » Tue Mar 08, 2011 11:26 am

It honestly scares me how some people in the Legion will say that he was more ferocious than Lanius, He was confirmed dead by 1st recon snipers more than 5 times, and that he survived a fall from the Grand Canyon. What really scares me though is that from the screenshots, he doesn't look as big or scary as Lanius. It makes me think that there is something really unique about him that makes him a hard target to kill.

It means only mini-nukes can kill him.

Lanius scary? Hahaha lanius is a pretty boy with a big sword. Graham is so bad because he has been confirmed killed so many times, but he still walks.

What if all the stuff about the burned man is all Propaganda and the guy that looks like the burned man is really a burn victim, from cook cook, who was taken by the NCR to help start a rebellion inside the Legion when they heard the burned man was still alive.

I'm assuming Graham survived being thrown into the Grand Canyon, because the NCR First Recon sharpshooters reported killing him 5 times, which would kinda have to make him tough.

I hope he isnt hostile. i hope he is an unkillable charaacter who goes unconcious. I hope you can end the game where he goes back to legion territory, and will take over the legion after caeser and Lanius inevitable death.
Caeser isnt going to last and lanius isnt bad. And I think the legion should be kept around, they have potential and need to be more fleshed out. Having Graham take over could secure its future and then we can see more of the legion.
Because love em o hate em, you admit they got shafted in NV.

Failing that, make him a companion we can ring back to the wastes. Make him the opposite of Boone, we already have to many pro ncr characters, not enough pro legion.

I wonder if to kill him we must sever llimbs like ghost people.


I have to say I doubt most of that's going to happen-it at least seems like the story is largely separate from the Mojave Wasteland. In that you can't "bring back" the people with you-they might go to Vegas in the story, but you won't actually be able to interact with them after the DLC(s) they're involved in.

More so, they'd have to change the original storyline (somewhat significantly) to fit the Burned Man in Caesar's Legion like that, and I don't expect they'll do that.

Plus, they made it a point to make every character "killable" in Fallout: New Vegas, aside from Companions if you're not on hardcoe mode and children in any case.

My main hope is that there is a more elaborate interaction, at least possibly, with him than there was with Elijah. I was so ridiculously excited to meet the man, and then was somewhat disappointed when I could hardly ever really talk to him in a way that would reveal something interesting or show his character in more depth. There WAS some fleshing out, no doubt, but I would have liked to have been able to see more of him. Which is why I'm hopeful you can talk to the Burned Man, in part, without him being an enemy from the start. You tend to get to talk less with the enemies.

I'm gonna speculate that Joshua Graham, aka "Burned Man" smells like KFC!

Or if you kill him with a flamethrower lol

That's not irony. Irony would be if you somehow saved him with a flamethrower.
