Forum:How did your Courier eventually meet his fate?

My courier Mileena was leaving the Mojave with An Unknown Figure. Her last words were "Oh Relax these tower's make that sound all the time there's no way it will collapse." Sadly she was wrong.

35 years after ridding the Mojave of Caesars Legion and moving further west into NCR territory, my courier(Mac) was making his living as a sharpshooter guarding a small trading post at a highway junction some 75-100 miles south of New Reno. On the day of his 56th birthday, a large group of raiders attacked the post from the east. Mac had an advantage due to his high vantage point and the flat terrain that contained very few sources of cover. Between him and the 3 trading-post guards, and the 2 caravans that were passing through, they were able to lay waste to roughly 60 of the raiders before Mac caught a bullet to the left shoulder from 1 of the raiders 3 snipers. With his shooting shoulder badly injured, and all but 1 of the guards and a caravan merchant remaining to defend the post, Mac sat back and lit a cigarette and chugged down his last bottle of whiskey. With close to 3 dozen raiders left, Mac knew there was no way out. He dropped a clip into his AMR, and turned to the side to open a footlocker. Pulling back a few layers of burlap, he revealed a bolt action rifle not quite like any model seen in the world since before the war. A German made 8mm Mauser. With a blood curdling roar, he rose up grabbed the AMR and quickly dispatched 8 raiders in 3 shots. Dumb bastards shouldn't of grouped up like that. The next round jammed. No time to fix it. Mac turns to his side and picks up the Mauser; whips back around and takes down 3 more raiders with 3 well placed head shots. If only he had seen the raider boss posted up to the north-east with a missile launcher sooner. With his last 2 shots, he put down one more raider and the raider boss; but not before the boss had let the missile loose. Taking one last gaze at the horizon, he took what seemed like an eternal drag off of his cigarette and said "Good a time as any." Dopesmylez 20:58, July 26, 2011 (UTC)

Some time after the events of new vegas, the NCR is firmly established in the area, the courier went into semi retirement. His reputation as a mercenary of unparalleled skill moved into the realm of myths and legends and he slipped into obscurity seeking to find a quiet place to live out the remainder of his life. Sadly, it was not to be. After several years of drinking to forget in some back alley booze house, the courier was confronted by a pair of Rangers asking for his help to face down a new threat. He at first refused until one of the rangers removed her helmet and made a heartfelt plea on behalf of the people of the Mojave. The courier was struck by her beauty and reluctantly agreed and went on another hair raising adventure to save the world from annihilation. In the end, he gave his life to save the woman he had come to love over the course of their adventures together. At the last epic battle, he threw himself into the path of a storm of bullets to shield her as she hacked the terminal that would deactivate the nuke meant to wipe the slate clean. When the smoke cleared and the battle was one, the courier was given a hero's funeral. Yet when his casket was being lowered into the ground, the undertakers noted that it felt light as if the the body inside belonged to someone else... Zac hemker 22:46, July 27, 2011 (UTC)

A bullet in back of the head while entering the Lucky 38 one day not long after creating Free Vegas. Officially it was thought to be the work of a Fiend who missed the last battle, but there was much suspicion that the Van Graff family had something to do with it, although some people blamed the NCR. 75.67.224.12 06:26, July 29, 2011 (UTC)

After taking over the strip (Yes Man ending), and making too many enemies to mention, my character was killed in a suspicious arson attack at the lucky 38. The boomers, the van graffs and the Powder Gangers are just some of the suspects. 00:43, July 30 2011 (UTC) MattFlan

My Courier, Toes, was part of the council of independent tribes for 15 years, one day after a meeting a team of assassins went after him and two other members of the council, they were the representatives of the Great Khans and the Boomers. The ambassador of the Khans quickly summoned The Khan army. They escorted Toes to Nellis, where the rest of the tribes convened and assembled an army. The assassins were from the NCR, they came to take revenge for the loss of the Mojave, after two days of intense fighting, Toes died, a single bullet from a Ranger sniper.

My courier got shot in the head by a man called Benny, after recovering in the doctors office, he stepped out of the door, taking a deep breath and happy he was alive. However, the doctors office was on a hill and as soon as he walked out of the door, he stumbled, fell down the hill and banged his head on a mailbox, killing him.

My Courier, Seth, after helping the NCR fend off the Legion at Hoover Dam, simply fled into the Wastes on the day of his 30th birthday, 5 years after Hoover Dam. officially, he was killed by a Cazador, but there have been literally hundreds of sightings of a man closely resembling his description, often appearing in a trenchcoat with a fully loaded Ranger Sequoia just when defeat seems inevitable...

19 years after the battle of the hoover dam, during which the courier had insured a free, and independent vegas lead by himself. The courier called together all the major tribes of the mojave wasteland. seeing this as an oppurtunity to rid the world of the courier who had defeated them both the NCR and legion moved once again towards new vegas. NCR seeking revenge for the defeat and betrayal of the courier so many years before. The legions motovation was simple:during the battle of hoover dam, The Legate Lanius and the courier met. rather than spilling more blood. The courier convinced the legate he was to weak to control vegas. The Legate then left with the promise that they would meet again on the battlefield. When the courier heard about these two armies moving in on vegas he stood up, adressesed each of the mojaves tribes saying: '19 years ago i defeated the NCR and Legion at the hoover Dam. today they outnumber us. We cannot beat them this time, but we will not hide.' with that the courier set out to a hopeless battle. with his securitron army, and the allied tribes of vegas. During the mojaves, and the couriers third and final war, the great khans were destroyed by the the NCR attacking from the west. the boomers were finished by the legion. in an atempt to regain its honor, the brotherhood stood with the courier. one by one each of the tribes of vegas were obliterated. the courier recieving a bullet to the chest. stood up. surrounded by legion troops with Ncr coming towards them, the courier said 'New vegas can never be controlled by one man. new vegas is owned by its people. though the mojave, will never see peace for long, beacause war...war never changes.' And with that the courier ended his life the legion and NCR fought on untill they were driven out by the inhabitents of new vegas bearing the flag of the courier. and so finally, New vegas was free.

(The following is not based on the order or actual choices in Fallout: New Vegas, only an imaginative story arc. NCR path was chosen in actuality.) After the Second Battle of Hoover Dam, Leon continued his life as a courier. He chose to negotiate terms with the NCR to make the Mojave a protectorate of the Bear so the Mojave may have some sort of representative standing in government, but with the force of an army backing it up. Only months later would he receive the broadcast of the Sierra Madre. He lived through that but now the call of Zion reached his ears where he would don the Desert Ranger Combat Armor. After ridding the canyon of the White Legs, he would venture forth into the crater of Big Mountain. Along this path, Leon met many allies such as Wolf, a cyborg assassin sent by Mr. House. Triggered by his death, the assassin would be freed and find any responsible for his death. But Mr. House oversaw how human his top engineers had made him and chose the side that was right, being an ally of the courier after his encounter with the mysterious Ulysses. Leon also came across a sharpshooter by the name of Forty. Not the brightest, but a damn good shot. Soon after, Leon would meet the love of his life, a red head named Serryne who would support Leon in every endeavor. Armed with a Ballistic Fist, she took his side as well. Wolf, due to his extensive knowledge, was entrusted with the Big Empty after Leon and Wolf's battle with the Think Tank. Wolf would work with Mobius and a team of the Followers of the Apocalypse to ensure it's usefulness in helping mankind. Afterwards, Leon got the hint; someone was after him. When he obtained the broadcast that summoned him to the Divide, with Bumper Sword in hand, 24 year old Leon walked West, "straight and true" to "sink his feet in Old World ash". He found Ulysses and a confrontation ensued. His return would mark a life of peace for the courier. The guilt of the death of his mentor, the choices he made throughout the events of the war, and the fateful meeting with Ulysses, would finally bring him peace. One year later..... Wolf left Big MT to the Followers and Mobius and ventured to the wastes. Finally, he reached Goodsprings and lived there for a while. Even being with Leon in his final moments 60 years later. One day, Wolf left Goodsprings, knowing he would live forever being a cyborg, he ran into the Mojave, serving as a protector and as death to those who would threaten the lives of the good. Forty would take the reigns of Wolflorn Ranch, seeing it was abandoned by Ulysses. He became a successful Bighorner Rancher, one of the top in the Core Region. Leon would eventually marry Serryne. Serryne gave Leon the happiness he desired and worked for. They would eventually settle in Goodsprings and expand upon Victor's old house and make it their own. He would live there until his death. With his children, Serryne, and Wolf by his side, he finally closed his eyes and saw the silouhette if his old mentor taking him up to the light of the sky. (Anonymous August 3, 2011)

My Courier,after working with the Yes-Man and Raul to finally make New Vegas a better place,he spent the next few years roaming the wastes as a bounty hunter with Cass.He watched over the week and spent his spare time hunting the legendary animals in the wasteland.One day however, when exploring with Raul, he was attacked by 50 deathclaws.After a brave retaliation he was stunned to see that he had won! All of the deathclaws lay dead, however, he heard a grunt behind him and turned to see Raul with lacerations all over his body. They both knew it was too late and as The Courier made him comfortable by propping him up on a nearby rock, the friends said they're final goodbye as the Courier faded into the the sandstorm.The Courier eventually made it back to the mojave after being stung by a cazador.After making it within a mile of the strip, he realised he could walk no further, and collapsed to the floor. He lay there for a day before the venom in his blood brought him to the end. With his last words he looked over his life and came to an understanding. He had saved The wastes around him, but at a cost. All of the people that he liked, loved, had died. With a sharp intake of breath, and the last bullet in his sequoia, he did what should have been done years ago...He was found the next day by Cass and Boone while they were gathering food. The Courier had finally met his end.[Anonymous.August 3, 2011]

My Courier, after fighting for a free Vegas and becoming the most famous and richest man in the wasteland, finally went a little insane. The power, wealth and fame got to his head, His closest followers, in particular Boone and Arcade, also got dragged into his madness. The Courier's nights were spent partying in the Lucky 38, doing all kinds of drugs. Even Arcade and Boone could not resist his charisma and ego, and followed his orders to the letter. So one day, the courier ordered Boone to fetch the leaders of the factions in the Wasteland. Papa Khan, the Elder, Mother Pearl and everyone else was summoned to the Lucky 38. There they waited for the Courier to arrive. Suddenly, the huge monitor that Mr. House used to use flickered to life, and the Courier's face met the faction leaders.

'You know, I knew this guy once. He was called Benny. Something he said to me really stuck with me.' The Courier pulled out a detonator, and a smile appeared across his face.

'You know what he said? Truth is, the game was rigged from the start. Taking one last sip of whiskey, the courier dived from atop the Lucky 38. But not before he pushed the button on the detonator. The Lucky 38, as well as most of Vegas, was immolated in a ball of fire.

The Courier was no more.

As for his companions, well, that's another story...
