2. In Fallout: New Vegas, the series sees a return to the West Coast, and this allowed the writers to follow up on characters from the first two games. Cass, for instance, an alcoholic young woman you find stationed up in Mojave Outpost, is actually the daughter of the companion of Fallout 2’s Chosen One, John Cassidy.
As you may remember, he was a bit disparaging towards Tribals, expressing embarrassment at his talent for throwing spears, as it made him seem of Tribal origin. However later, he apparently fathered a daughter with a Tribal. As a nod to her father, Cass will profess her combat strengths to be explosives and unarmed combat but her hidden stats instead reveal strong melee skills. And despite her claim that her mother didn’t teach her to throw spears, she’s actually quite good at it–a distinctly Tribal trait.
Additionally, if you travel with Cass as a companion, the Nightkin in Black Rock cave will remark “the voices knew flower girl’s father”.
Another example is Arcade Gannon, a doctor with the Followers of the Apocalypse, who is the son of an Enclave officer and was born on the oil rig in Navarro four years after its destruction.
