Ed the mutant

Ed doesn’t remember much before he got dunked into that vat of green goop and pulled out as the mutant he is. He was suppose to travel with a pack of other super-mutants to attack a settlement, but ended up getting distracted by a comic shop. In it, he found several in-tact comics and spent hours reading them, with his pack forgetting about him. It would be this point that Ed found his love for comics of the sci-fi, horror, superhero and fantasy kind. Travelling between places of interest (comic shops, video rentals, drive-in theaters) would lead to Ed being met by one “Eddy Skiptown” hiding out from his most recent scam-gone-wrong. Finding Eddy amusing and a means to access more comics and movies, Ed quickly befriended the ghoul and the two would travel together, with Eddy using Ed as muscle (and a meat-shield) in his future scams. During one of their run-aways from some “angry suckers”, they’d uncover an inactive but intact Mister Handy, whom the two (out of dumb luck) reactivated. The Mister Handy, named “Edward”, would willingly join their company, but only if they help him return to Vault 44, which he once served in. Through this, the two would enter Quad City, specifically Moline, and discover the “Vault Cracker Society”, which the three would join out of their own interests but work as a team. While the three had garnished a less-than-savory reputation, they’ve still been seen as useful for the Vault Cracker Society
