Ulysses is actually your imaginary friend. The events in Fallout:New Vegas are a simulation, and you are test subject #74894 trapped in the ruins of the Mariposa Military Base. When it was destroyed the simulation pod you were in, stayed intact, running on it's own for hundreds of years already. Ulysses was a companion implemented before the base's destruction, so you would keep from going insane while in the simulation. But the simulation is running it's infinite course, and you will only be released from the pod and into your prison at Mariposa once you confront Ulysses.
