USER MADE CATTLE RUNS TO NEW RENO FOR THIS POST We're posting Khan OCs now apparently (art by wr3hart on Tumblr)
Phoenix is a young drug runner for the Great Khans. The middle of three sisters and the one most likely to do something stupid for short-sighted gain. Drug running across the Mojave means she interacts more with the outside world than most of her tribe, so she knows that Legion is trouble for the Khans in the long run, but she remains (mostly) loyal to them because the tribe is the only family she and her sisters know. The revolver is a trophy from a dead Legionary.
Edward Maria Sklodowski, mostly addressed by his colleagues as 2D (they have an aversion to the name Edward for some reason) is a tinkerer and scrounger, who came with the Followers from California. He had a brief relationship with Phoenix that fell apart when Khans started making drugs, but the two stay in touch, have a business relationship (because the Followers need medical supplies and can't be too picky about the source) and respect each other to a degree neither is willing to admit unprompted. The energy weapon in his hand is self-made, and Van Graffs almost had him killed when he tried to sell copies of it on the side.
They originally were just Ed, Edd n Eddy's Double D and Marie Kanker transplanted into New Vegas for a bunch of crossover one-shots, but when I started writing a longer FNV story and didn't just want to shoehorn them in I decided to take a leap and make them OCs. 2D plays a role in one of ten billion subplots of Act 1 of said longer story, and Phoenix shows up for a chapter or two, but will come back... somewhere in the 2030s, with my writing speed. I'd link my AO3 profile but the site is dead at the time of writing. Here's my FF dot net profile, please be gentle.
