Bio: Artyom's origins are mixed often he was told conflicting stories though eventually he was told he came from a vault though of what number he doesn't know. Regardless he was adopted and cared for by a family of Ghouls in Dayglow who took him in when he was an infant and he was quick to pick up fascination with the pre war world. Soon Artyom found his knack for fixing things and using guns when he got old enough to shoot. Eventually he got work as a teen at a Brahmin Ranch keep critters away from the livestock which satiated the young man until his late teens.
When Artyom turned 17 he joined the NCR Military voluntarily and was sent to Vegas to help with the threat of the Legion. After an impressive record and a few recommendations from his superiors Artyom was selected for Ranger Training. After 1 failed attempt and a successful 2nd Artyom was inducted as an NCR ranger at the age of 19.
Artyom served and performed his duty for 5 years before deciding not to re-enlist for duty. From there he met a Ghoul named Pedro who had come from a place called Mexico and after a little imploring and persuasion with whiskey and a repaired revolver the ghoul taught Artyom some language called 'Spanish'. After the two parted they kept in contact as friends with Pedro promising to take Artyom to his home town one day.
Artyom proceeded to explore the wastes putting his Ranger training to use and helping folks along the way when they needed it. He eventually visited a place called the Divide nearly getting killed but finding a nice set of Riot gear before clearing the hell out of the death trap. After the trek Artyom decided it might be ideal to settle down in the Mojave or back in California.
While pondering his eventual retirement Artyom's friend, Pedro, went missing and the last he recalled hearing from the ghoul was about heading to Texas. After months of traveling through new and unfamiliar territory Artyom has found his way to the Texas Wasteland and now he intends to see if he can find his friend and help the people of this place and bring a good name for his country.
