So, a while back I was thinking that within the Fallout chronology, there's going to be a period immediately after the war where you have a shitload of mad scientists running around the wastes, people with pre-war scientific training and resources who were disproportionately likely to have survival contingencies in place via their association with the military-industrial complex, The Enclave, Vault-Tec, or whoever else would have a pet evil scientist. For a while they're just a kind of guy you can run into. Then there's going to be a big period in the middle where that initial glut of hanger-ons have died off, actual trained scientists become as rare as unicorns, and the high-science of the pre-war era becomes the stuff of legend and superstition- this is the period where you get groups like the Ciphers from the Van Buren design doc. Then like 200 years after the fact, you'd see sufficient reconstruction of civilization that you start to get new scientists, you've got the Followers setting up an actual college in the boneyard to train people, you've got the NCR setting up The Office of Science and Industry, you've got the NCR going door-to-door looking to draft someone with theoretical physics knowledge and expecting to succeed, scientists are once again just a type of guy you can reasonably expect to run into. If we were graphing this it'd be a big inverted bell curve.

Anyway. The sheer number of scientists running around in Fallout 3 with no obvious source of training (James, Madison Li and her staff, Pinkerton, The Surgeon, Dr. Lesko, that one guy in vault 106, Julius Banfield, there are others I'm forgetting) is not unrelated to my theory that they fucked around with the intended timeframe for the game late in development.

Annoyingly Sweet, innocent, and kind-hearted Lone Wanderer and her cheerful Vault Dweller attitude putting her through hell as she gets the worst bargains from merchants and traders because her naivety doesn’t allow her to realize she’s getting ripped off. Or she simply wouldn’t allow herself to acknowledge someone would do that to another person.

Oh, she’s so courteous to them. Why would they rip her off? Isn’t it everyone’s duty to treat others as you want to be treated? At least, that’s what was taught in the Vaults.

It was until she picked up Charon‘s contract that things suddenly got a whole lot cheaper. They’d see Sweet LW practically dance into their shop and think “hah, this sucker again. Let’s scam her for all she’s got,” and then they see all of 6’8” Charon with a scowl that could make a flower wilt, duck under the door and scope out the scenery before landing on their terrified ass.

Poor LW would probably think her kindness finally rubbed off on the greedy fucks, and just skip away from the shaking merchant, her caps jingling in her pockets.

“See that, Charon - I knew they’d finally come around! A positive attitude can always get you through a rough day! :D”

“*tired and annoyed Grumble...”

“That’s the spirit!! :D”

Sierra has a habit of cheerfully 'infodumping' large swaths of her knowledge about Nuka-Cola onto other parties,[19][20] whether or not they show interest in it,[18] a habit that she is aware can be "overwhelming" to some people.[21] Her lifelong pursuit of anything related to Nuka-Cola has left her with little time to form meaningful relationships, and those few friends that she does have, such as with her neighbor Ronald, are often sidelined by her hyperfixation. Sierra also has difficulties recognizing sarcasm[1] or understanding euphemisms, often taking people's words at their literal meaning.[10][11][22][23][24][25] Though Sierra understands the dangers of the wasteland, enough to warn the Lone Wanderer about the raiders at Evergreen Mills,[12] she struggles to recognize these dangers when confronted with them directly.[17] When threatened with a bullet to the head by a member of the Disciples raider gang, she shows no self awareness about the danger she finds herself in, only remarking about how unfriendly they are.[17] When describing how Ronald was attacked by a group of raiders led by Lug-Nut, she imitates their voices and treats it as if it were an exciting anecdote rather than a brush with death.[14] Sierra also displays difficulties with empathy and understanding the feelings of others. Upon meeting her idol John-Caleb Bradberton, she shows little regard for his current predicament, that being a disembodied head in a glass container kept alive for 210 years. When Bradberton asks the Sole Survivor to shut off his life support, Sierra severely underestimates his suffering, choosing to offer him company rather than respect his dying wishes.[26] Only after the deed is completed does she see the fault in her ways,[27][28][29][30][31] though still viewing his suffering through the lens of her hyperfixation.[32][33] While she tolerates opinions that differ from her own, she also considers them wrong or "silly" and shows naivety in her ability to change said opinions.[34]

Wrote the entirety of Sierra Petrovita's new background page, including this section where I use words such as "hyperfixating" and "infodumping" to allude to her being autistic! Sierra is very much so and I love her. @calder
