Who do you think is the most badass character in the entire franchise?

Don't know if anyone's said this yet, but I don't think Frank Horrigan is a badass. I don't measure badassery by power, but more by what a character does relative to the power that they have. What's so badass about being an overpowered jerk?

Yeah, he's pretty pathetic actually. Now Caesar, Caesar is a bad ass.

I like Ulysses a lot. I know most people write him off as a "Gary Stu" but I feel he's actually fairly well developed. I like how he's essentially your antithesis, travelling from the East to West while you went from West to East. All his adventures. Good stuff.

I won't ramble about him because I've done it plenty of times before, but I will add this. He's what Miraak should have been. Miraak was meant to be the Dragonborn's polar opposite and match in every way, yet he kind of comes up short in those terms, such as his rather pathetic final battle. Ulysses on the other hand is what I would consider one of the best "foils" to be in a video game. There's also the difference that you can actually talk Ulysses down.

Ah, I long for the alternate universe where Ulysses was going to be a fully fleshed out companion instead of just being relegated to helping you in the final battle if you decide to spare him. Fuck Bethesda and their time limit bull.

Oops, sorry about that. I am always very careful typing your name but I also make plenty of typos always and rely on my spellchecking addon... and it declares Vergil as a typo and if I am not careful it changes it back to Virgil. So I have to manually change it back every time. I guess that time I forgot or was in a hurry and didn't noticed :cry:.
 
Definitely Joshua Graham. Once i go on my Mormon mission, I want a companion like him. :D

EDIT: In all seriousness to those who may be curious, yes I am a mormon. And the statement above is 100% serious/ not a joke.

One thing I enjoyed about Ulysses was the build up to Ulysses throughout the course of the DLCs. It was quite an experience attempting to unravel the mystery of this seemingly cut character and his influence over the events in-game. The fact that he was a fellow courier made it more obvious how he was Courier 6's main foil & equal which made him, to me, the Courier's greatest opponent in New Vegas.

It is also interesting how the problems faced by the Courier in the DLCs, and even in the base game, could be linked to Ulysses in some way (revealing the Madre's location to Elijah, training the White Legs, causing the Think Tank to consider the possibility of life outside Big MT and discovering the Dam for the Legion).

Definetely Dave from Vault 13.

I mean look at this guy sincerely. He's been dropped on the porch, got pneumonia and chicken pox, broke six ribs falling down the stairs, had an uncle decapitated by a watermelon, was hit on the head with a shovel by his parents, lost an index finger to his pet rat, had both his eyes poked out by his drunken father, amputated his left big toe with a hoe, gained severe testicular fungus.

And after having all that bad luck, he overcame it, and lived up to the age of 61.
