Well that's fairly vague, but one of my characters:
Name: Nathan Vale, using the alias "Vincent" in the Mojave.
Physical description: 26 years old. Has a small frame and is slighly shorter than average, but is well toned and strong for his size. Missing his left eye (currently replaced with a Bio-tec implant purchased in the Commonwealth). Has silver-blond hair that is typically messy and worn shoulder length.
Short history: A former sergeant in the Hellfire division of the east coast Enclave. Was at the battle for Project Purity, but managed to retreat with all of his limbs and one of his eyes intact when the battle was clearly lost. By the time he returned to Raven Rock it was already destroyed by Liberty Prime. When he recieved orders to rebase to Adams Airforce Base, Nathan deserted and headed north to the Commonwealth. He visited the Institute and traded his Hellfire armor for a cybernetic eye replacement*. After bartering his pair of plasma sidearms for a pack brahmin loaded with food and water, he headed west with nothing but his trusty incinerator "Katie". Katie had never let him down before.
He assumed it would be easy for someone like him to get a high paying job, considering his valuable knowledge of power armor, energy weapons and robotics. When he arrived, he discovered that no one really had use for those talents outside the Brotherood of Steel (or "those [censored]s", as he calls them), and thus was forced to take a menial, low paying job as a courier.
Then he got double tapped to the head on his first job, because Katie decided to stop working at just the wrong time and explode in his hands when he tried to turn his assailants extra-crispy.
Personality: Arrogant, snide, ruthless. Though since his near death experience, he's trying to be a better person.
*In a stroke of unbelievable luck, the scientist who had been developing this particular optical-replacement attempted to design it to see through a ladies' clothes. It didn't work, but the effect did happen to work well enough to see through the top card in a deck.
