Fallout 4 Shaun Mod
Contents BackgroundShaun was less than a year old by October. On October 23, during the outbreak of the, his parents took him and fled to nearby as the atomic bombs began to fall on. Unaware of the true purpose of the Vault, Shaun and his parents became frozen in cryogenic suspension. Approximately six months following their internment, a revolt occurred and the staff abandoned Vault 111, leaving behind those frozen within, completely unaware of what had occurred.The cryogenically preserved Vault participants remained undisturbed for around 150 years until the Institute discovered records regarding Vault 111.
At this time, the Institute was desperate for genetic material unaffected by the radiation-ravaged wasteland for their project. The infant, Shaun, represented the perfect source of uncorrupted DNA, and the Institute set about to acquire him.Sometime in, the Institute dispatched their mercenary, to Vault 111 to retrieve Shaun. Along with two Institute technicians, Kellogg revived Shaun and his parents. The parent holding Shaun was unwilling to part with their son and resisted Kellogg and was shot and killed.
Kellogg then returned the other parent to cryogenic suspension and terminated the life support of the other frozen Vault participants. Shaun’s surviving parent, who later becomes known as the of Vault 111, would later escape the Vault in.Shaun was then raised by the Institute as one of their own, later nicknamed 'Father' for his role in providing the DNA required to complete the third generation synths. In time, he became the acting Director of the Institute.

The Sole Survivor can find Shaun and can choose whether or not to side with him.Shaun is convinced that the Institute is the only hope for humanity and tries to subtly convince the Sole Survivor of this. He gives them nearly unlimited access to the Institute, introduces them to the personnel of the Institute and even trusts them with missions to seek out and retrieve rogue synths.
His feelings about the Institute as the future and last hope of humanity are mildly fanatical; he possesses an irrational fear of the surface and the potential threats of the Commonwealth to the Institute. Ultimately, Shaun wishes to take humanity further underground and away from the radiation, mutant and danger infested surface world.However, Shaun does not require the rest of the Institute to adhere to his personal beliefs. In contrast to his contempt towards people above, he is not only open to recruitment of talented individuals, but allows them to gain high positions, like with. He also does not seem to mind if his parent disagrees with his stances - as long as they don't endanger the Institute - and continues supporting them as their heir for as long as they are loyal to the Institute.

Should the Sole Survivor, during the quest, tell them that they don't believe that they can take his place, Shaun encourages them to create their own place rather than follow in his footsteps.Having been raised in and by the Institute rather than by his parents, Shaun mostly lacks compassion - though he has a strong desire for humanity to survive - and seems indifferent upon remembering the death of one of his parents. He refers to the 'incident' as 'collateral damage' which potentially angers the Sole Survivor, though Shaun does offer that he has had his whole life to come to terms with that information.
However, despite this indifference, he never lets go of hatred towards his parent's murderer, whom he does not forgive even if the Sole Survivor does. Interestingly, he does occasionally show some compassion. For instance, he apologizes to his surviving parent for the 's destruction, which he does even if the Sole Survivor destroys them before Shaun orders it.He also reveals it was his personal choice to awaken the Sole Survivor from cryostasis, not an error of Vault 111.
There will be end-game spoilers below for Fallout 4! Continue reading this only if you've finished the game or you don't mind being spoiled.Father Companion: Alternate Ending Option For Fallout 4Version: 3.0Links:;;;Quick Alert: If you downloaded versions 1.0 or 1.1 or 1.2, delete these, please re-download with the latest patch and start a new game and/or reload a save before the mod was activated. These versions contain a rather major bug and exploits. It should be fixed now, but report any issues and I'll look into them. The versions after (1.3+) are stable and suitable for playing.This mod adds a side quest to Fallout 4 that will allow you to obtain the character known as 'Father' as a companion after the end of the game. For more information read below.
If you'd rather find out all this information for yourself, stop reading and go download the mod now, but bear in mind I won't be replying to comments or e-mails asking for information that is already explained below. Feel free to ask other players though.Section A: The Background Story (skip to section B if you'd rather find this out for yourself by playing the mod)He was dying and there was nothing you could do about it. Have you ever wanted to save Father? Lorewise, it's certainly possible and unfortunately the vanilla game did not explore those options. What if you used the Cabot family's 'Mysterious Serum'? What about the Institute's own 'Forced Evolutionary Virus' or FEV?
Was there something more to Vault 81, perhaps hidden medical research that could help him? Other unanswered questions include: Why couldn't the Institute just enhance Shaun as they did with Kellogg to halt aging? Why couldn't the Sole Survivor just use the Vault 81 Cure?And perhaps an even more pressing issue is, if given the chance to destroy the Institute but save Shaun (the real Shaun), would you take it?
Do you, from a role-playing perspective, truly believe the Institute is the way forward for mankind or did you only side with it because going against it meant going against your son? What other faction would you pick if this wasn't an issue any longer?All these questions the mod will try to explore to the best of my abilities.Section B: Access the file page for details.
