StormWolf01 Posted December 3, 2022 Share Posted December 3, 2022 Hear me out here. Mkay?So. Yeah. Shaun is called Father, because he's the genetic code that all the G3 Synths are based off of.And yeah. They took him because they wanted a clean, genetic sample that was rad-free. But. Read the terminals down in Virgil's lab. Where they were doing the FEV experiments.They were at an impasse in the experiments.Same failure, repeatable ad infinitum. Radiation infused victims.And they wanted to terminate the project because they couldn't get past that obstacle. Then enter in the discovery of Vault 111. OOooo!OOOO!!! Let's get samples!Ugh. This is a baby!Why would we want a FEV baby!? We wouldn't have immediate results to see if we got past the hurdle! Moron mercenary!hmhmhmClone him!Yes!Test on the clones! We can make more! We can make changes, to offset obstacles! We can improve their traits to see how we can advance those with FEV! We can...! OOoooOOoooo. These clones....!They're blank slates! They're CONTROLABLE...!F***! FEV! Genetic alteration, lets go with that! Your thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fraquar Posted December 6, 2022 Share Posted December 6, 2022 Only things I know for sure:1) Kellogg was human (no implants yet) at the time of your abduction - as both his and your memory are identical. Given his appearance I'd put him around 30-40 years old. Given his age at the time of the radio broadcast (the 2189 formation of the NCR) - that puts your kids abduction between 2210 and 2220.2) It seems as if the previous "Father" wanted your entire family left alive - and everyone else killed off - given Kellogg's comments at the time of abduction. Everyone else was killed off.3) It seems as if the current "Father" is your kid and he has found out that you were left alive. It's why the whole Kellogg with kid in plain sight in DC is arranged - as Kellogg's comments suggest. It seems as if Father really is your kid afterall.

Agreed, This is a case where the advertised truth really is the only plausible one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fraquar Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 The timelines just match up too perfectly to ignore them. If they were off by even a little it would be a very plausible idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you pay attention to what happens. Which is: the 'doctor' with Kellog points at the cryo chamber and says: "This is the one." They open it and violently take the baby. So, they discovered info about V111, and that there was a pre-war baby frozen in there. They went there to get it. "Who would want a FEV baby?" The institute clearly does! (although its hard to say if baby Shaun is indeed infected with FEV.) Edited May 31, 2023 by RoNin1971 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomanytomorrows Posted June 3, 2023 Share Posted June 3, 2023 Why would Shaun have FEV. Is FEV the chemical that created Fawkes and all his kind? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoNin1971 Posted June 3, 2023 Share Posted June 3, 2023 Why would Shaun have FEV. Is FEV the chemical that created Fawkes and all his kind?Why baby Shaun should have it?: Probably not, but FEV existed pre-war in various forms, used by various 'parties'. Therefor it is impossible to exclude. It is the chemical which created supermutants, yes. Also used by the institute for experimenting on creating synths & more in fallout history.

showler Posted June 3, 2023 Share Posted June 3, 2023 I think the OP was suggesting they wanted the untainted Shaun for their FEV experiments since FEV doesn't work right on tainted subjects. But it probably doesn't matter since they still wouldn't be able to use the FEV on themselves. I'd guess they wanted a baby for the Stem Cells.
