Ryker Khan

## Ryker "The Bull" Khan

Ryker was named Liam Parker by his Parents until he joined the Great Khans and changed his name to Ryker.

## Background

Ryker was born in NCR. His father was a soldier and his mother was a simple farmer. His father was rarely home and that was for the better as he beat Ryker's mother and also Ryker when he was 10 years old. His mother had an affair with another man from the village near her farm and Ryker liked this man because he taught him many things to survive. This affair lasted for 2 years but one day Ryker's father came back home earlier than planned and discovered Ryker's mother and their affair. Ryker's father killed the man directly and the shot drew Liam's attention to his father's discovery. Ryker walked into his mother's bedroom and saw his father pinning his mother against the wall and pointing a gun at her face. Ryker ran to the dead man on the floor and took the gun. He went to his father and shot him right in the head. His mother then grabbed Ryker's father's gun and grabbed Ryker's hand and they ran out of the house to flee to the wasteland. However, a pair of NCR soldiers became aware of the shots and spotted the two running out of the house and chasing them.

Ryker's mother noticed that they were being followed and started shooting at the soldiers. She and Ryker crouched behind a wall while the soldiers took cover at houses. Ryker supported his mother and also opened fire on the soldiers, even hitting one of them in the leg. When he wanted to tell his mother about his hit, he saw his mother leaning against the wall with a bullet in her head. She was killed directly by a shot to the head. Ryker started crying and was full of anger and shot his whole magazine in the direction of the soldiers and hit 2 more of them, one of them died and the other one was badly injured. Ryker took his mother's gun and also shot the whole magazine empty and hit the last standing soldier directly in the head and the soldier who had been hit in the leg died on the spot from his injury. Ryker looked over the wall and saw that only one soldier was alive and crawling on the ground. The soldier wanted to crawl to a gun from his dead comrades. Ryker went to one of the dead and took his Knife. The soldier saw Ryker and begged for mercy as he wanted to see his family again. However, Ryker mercilessly stabbed him the Heart. Ryker grabbed some supplies from the dead soldiers and fled to the wasteland.

Before taking contract to deliver the platinum chip, the Courier had traveled across New California, on the Long 15 to Primm, to Circle Junction, New Reno, Vault City, Fort Abandon and on brahmin drives at the Big Circle. They were also hired to deliver a package to a community near Death Valley, the technology contained within the package resulting in underground nuclear detonations after their departure, creating a hostile area known as the Divide.

In 2281, the Courier was one of six messengers hired by the Mojave Express at Robert House's behest to deliver packages to the New Vegas Strip. The Courier was carrying the only item of worth, House's platinum chip. In order to steal the chip, Mr. House's protégé Benny intercepted the Courier, shot them in the head twice, and buried them in the Goodsprings Cemetery. The Courier was dug out of their grave by Victor, a Securitron under Mr. House's control. They were operated on by Doc Mitchell, the resident doctor of Goodsprings, who then monitored the Courier's recovery over the following days.

## The Awakening

### Waking Up

After the shot in the Head by Benny, Liam Parker wakes up with blurred vision in a small town called Goodsprings. It has been a particularly bad evening, and the Courier has been rescued by Victor the Securitron. Liam finds himself inside Doc Mitchell's house. As Liam`s head begins to clear, he sits up to see Doc Mitchell, the man who fixed them up and is the owner of the aforementioned shack as well as the town's only doctor. The doctor asks for Liam`s name and hand them a Reflectron to examine their appearance. The doctor will then ask them to have a seat on his couch and asks some questions. The doctor then guides the Courier to a door that leads out into the town of Goodsprings, where he will give them a Pip-Boy 3000. After being cleared as stable by Doc Mitchell, he urges Liam to talk to Goodsprings local ranger Sunny Smiles who can teach them how to fend for themselves in the wasteland and not get shot in the head again.

### Getting to know the Residents

When he entered the Saloon, Liam was greeted by Cheyenne, Sunny's dog, and Sunny herself. Liam and Sunny then did some chores for the Goodsprings residents. After they did that, Liam spoke to Barton Thorn, who asked Liam to save his girlfriend in exchange for caps. However, Barton only set a trap to ambush Liam, but Liam quickly shot him in the head and killed him. When Liam returned to the salon, he overheard the bar owner Trudy arguing with a powder ganger named Joe Cobb. Liam talked to Trudy and learned that the Powder Gangers were looking for and killing a man named Ringo. Liam then approached Joe and offered to kill Ringo for him after Joe paid him. Joe agreed and Liam made his way to Ringo in an old gas station, Ringo greeted him by pointing a gun in Liam's face. Liam was nice and had a short chat with Ringo after the conversation the two said goodbye and the moment Ringo turned around Liam shot him in the back of the head.

### The Takeover

After Liam got paid for the murder, Joe asked him to help them take over Goodsprings. Liam agreed after they agreed on a price. Liam goes to get medical supplies from the Doc and he went to the store for ammo. First he went to the shop and guaranteed the shopkeeper that if he gave out the ammunition for free, his shop would be spared from the robbery. The shopkeeper agreed and gave out some armor. After Liam brought the equipment to Joe, Liam made his way to the Doc and convinced him that Liam needed medical supplies for an injured man. The Doc agreed and told Liam to come to the saloon later to help the residents against the Powder Gangers. Liam agreed and as the Doc moved towards the door, Liam shot the man who had saved him in the back, killing him. As Liam brought the supplies to Joe, they made their way to the saloon to take over Goodsprings. Liam went his own way to flank the residents who tried to fight back. Among the defenders were Sunny Smilies and her dog, Trudy, and Easy Pete, a man Liam had spoken to briefly earlier, and several people Liam didn't know. Neither defender noticed Liam behind a rock, but Liam did notice how effective Sunny was in the fight. Liam Rante hoping to the defenders that they'd think he was trying to help them. The defenders assumed Liam was trying to help them and when Liam saw the opportunity he shot Sunny in the head at close range. Shortly thereafter, Liam Easy shot Pete in the stomach, killing him. After the fight, the Powder Gangers took over Goodspring and Joe Cobb offered Liam to go to the former NCR Correctional Facility for the leader
Eddie worked.
