It really sucks that you're very much shoe-horned into a character that's not your's. I can understand the shooting aspect. I have known quite a few ex-military guys and have gone shooting with them. The female PC may have been trained to shoot. The power armor thing though, I don't really get. You're also a parent who, from the first few minutes of the game, shows a strong attachment to their family. It's hard to see this character spending time growing potatos in a metal shack city when their kid is somewhere out there.
Growing up in the Vault in Fallout 3, you had a chance to shape your character into a jerk who'd end up turning into a canibal raider. You're never shown to have any sort of real connection with your dad in Fallout 3. He's an older guy, he chose to leave on his own, he can take care of himself. I'm in no rush to track him down, if I even track him down. Heck, he's the fault mom died. Heck, the only thing he ever did for me was give me a BB gun and walk out on me.
In New Vegas, you're a blank slate. Free to be whatever you want to be, without being shackled down to what you were before you were shot in the head.
In all the Elder Scrolls games, you're a convict. They never say why. You could be a murderer that escaped, or someone in the wrong place, at the wrong time.
Patiently waiting on the Live Another Life Fallout 4 edition mod.
