Fallout 4 Quest Mod - "Mind Games"
KiChan for Joanna Roberts
You were born into a wealthy family in Diamond City, the main settlement in the Commonwealth. After your mother dies, and with your father occupied with being mayor of the city, you become increasingly rebellious and reckless, eventually needing to be saved at age 15 from kidnappers by Nick Valentine, a synthetic man.
You befriend Nick, convincing him to briefly take you on as a partner in his detective agency when you’re 22. After various attempts to strike out on your own as a mercenary, you try to settle in your 30s with a man and his two sons. After a time, you realise the life isn’t for you, and you travel up north, eventually opening a weapons store in your 40s.
You’re now in your 60s. You’ve seen both the horror and the beauty of the post-apocalyptic world. You’ve lived life on the open road and in the peaceful home. But regret is starting to seep in as you look back on your life, with the years and the injuries catching up to you. You hide that by projecting a wryness about your age.
You are generally warm and amicable, but you’re firm when you get down to business. There’s a certain gravitas about you.
Voice: Warm but slightly raspy. Wry. Authoritative when needed.
(Player recently saved Nick from an underground vault. You’re grateful but you’re not awed by the player. Still, it’s impressive they got the job done. Nick’s lucky to have them.)
Pleased to meet you. Name’s Joanna Roberts. Ellie here tells me we've got you to thank for pulling Nick out of a hole. Not sure I'd still have what it takes to do something like that. Glad to see he’s got a new partner watching his back.
(Player line: Wait, are you the one who was kidnapped?)
(It’s more like you eloped with someone who turned out to be a kidnapper. You can look back at it wryly now.)
Well I wasn't exactly kidnapped but... Well, let's just say I did my fair share of stupid things back then. (To Nick. Still wry but grateful) Lucky for me my knight in plastic armor showed up just in time.
(Straining slightly at the start of the line as you get up from a chair. Not exaggerated but noticeable/subtle. You want to take the lead but your body might not be up to it anymore)
Well, sounds like a good lead as any. I say we check it out.
