Eli

Okay, fuck it. I need a break from my War Criminal Nate playthrough. I wanna play an idealistic character, I need the hopeful aspect, so it's time to customize a Nora today. I'm gonna change her name, too, (yeah I gave Nate my name, but only because hearing Codsworth say "Eli" makes the brain chemicals go brrrr), so I'm gonna go with the same first letter. Which works because there are so many old school names for women starting with E. I may just be lazy and go Ellie, tbh, bc Eleanor would be a fitting name for her.

Now I just gotta figure out her SPECIAL stats, which means I'm off to look at various builds lol.

The starting points are gonna screw me up because they only give you 21, but hey, that's what console codes are for! I've always felt 4 needed more to start with since you're prewar and without having to worry about survival, you're gonna be able to focus more on mind and body strength, so:

Strength: 3
Perception: 4
Endurance: 2 (she JUST had a kid)
Charisma: 8 (lawyering requires the gift of bullshittery)
Intelligence: 8 (Law school is a tough bastard)
Agility: 2 (again, she just had a kid)
Luck: 5 (trials involve a certain amount of luck, like getting the right judge, jury, finding the right evidence, etc)

I know, it's cheating. I don't care, I refuse to be constrained by the devs' limits and I will make my character the way I want her. I'm gonna lean fully into "I HAVE TO RESCUE SHAUN" instead of getting distracted by everything like I did with Nate lol
