    To be honest, the kindest thing you could do is keep Charon. If he’s that brainwashed, telling him “you’re free to do what you want” won’t fix everything. It’ll simply cause him to be unsure how to live his life, possibly wander for a time, and likely end up under someone else’s control. That’s what he was brainwashed to do.
    As long as you’re keeping him with you, treating him with kindness, there’s a chance you could get through to him in time... heck, if you can find some nice ghoul to help him out (so there’s no time limit on their life, like the lone wanderer) maybe over time, you could help him... I’d like to think so.

    What I think would work best for Charon would be to give him the contract; by his (albeit brainwashed) logic, with the contract in his possession, he is his own master, and thus can do as he pleases.

    • @mehlodia9432

      Daedra Sheogorath From what people have theorized, it's more complicated than that. If the contract were to be given to him, he'd go and find another person to give the contract to. I don't think it's as simple as that.

    @32:00 - destroying the contract before deprogramming Charon would result in disaster, like "freeing" a domesticated animal into the wilderness. They are not equipped, they would be doomed. If our character is of good karma, then likely we are a far better employer than Charon could typically hope for - everyone else would either be evil or not capable of protecting themselves, making work harder for Charon, or more likely to result in the same kind of disaster when their employer gets killed.
    I think holding his contract, at least until a way of deprogramming him is found, is the best possible result, all around. It's doing him a great favor compared to the other possibilities.

    Charon is my absolute favorite companion in any Fallout game *because* of his lack of background information! I can picture my character sitting across a campfire from him at night and making a guessing game on Charon's history while he just rolls his eyes and keeps watch. It's super fun for me to have that kind of freedom with a companion. The only run I've made of the game where heading to Underworld for Charon was not the first thing I did out of the Vault was the first run. Simply because I didn't know he was there! And, unfortunately, Greta usually dies for the cause because of that as I usually have nowhere near enough caps to buy the contract. Don't worry Greta! It's for a good cause!

And Greta's jealous of the mother/son relationship Carol has with Gob. I like to headcanon that, if left alone, Greta would do her best to tear Carol and Gob apart. So getting rid of her is actually a good thing in the long run.

    I think Charon was some sort of slave before he was a Ghoul. He was probably well fed and treated, to keep him strong and healthy. He grew up being brainwashed on how to act and be, maybe he suffered some sort of transportation that made it easier to do. I don't know. I'm spitballing here. I think it was just to make him more interesting, since he doesn't talk much.

With the armor's design combined with Charon height, its make a very intimidating presence. It also just feels right that the guy from the 𝘕𝘪𝘯𝘵𝘩 𝘊𝘪𝘳𝘤𝘭𝘦 in the 𝘜𝘯𝘥𝘦𝘳𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘭𝘥 is in 𝘏𝘦𝘭𝘭𝘧𝘪𝘳𝘦 armor.

    i don't know what it was about Charon but I loved him so much. He was my favorite companion and i gave him Lincoln's hat. I was absolutely too lazy/stingy to collect and give 2000 caps for him though so i killed Greta. I guess I'm a terrible person, but i loved that boy like my son.

    Next to Fawkes, Charon was the best follower. Annilated anything he touched, wasnt annoying and was taller than everything.
    Edit, April 4th 2020: fixed Fawkes' name (idk why I spelt it Faux). Also adding Jericho to the list as he can utilize big guns, especially the heavy incinerator, and thrown explosives with decent precision. I'm knocking Charon down a peg as the last time I used him, he vanished from my game. Took the Lincoln repeater, Power armor (cannot recall which type) and a slew of other weapons and ammo I was going sell.

    Oxhorn, the bombs dropped in 2077 and Carol said she was born in 2051. That would make her 26 years old when the bombs dropped, and 27 when she turned. I guess she was just with her dad when it happened.

      Not necessarily. If she was born any month before the end of October, she would be 25. She would only be 26 if she was born in November or December. Odds are that she was 25 when the bombs dropped--not 26.

    I can think of two reasons why Carol looks like a grown woman, while Billy still looks like a boy:
    Firstly, as a lore-based theory, it's been at least implied in multiple games that not all ghouls come out of the process the same way. They all LOOK very similar, but on the inside, they could be vastly different. Perhaps Billy's ghoulification halted his aging process, but Carol's did not.
    Secondly, there's the real-world theory, which I think is more likely, which is just that the writers of Fallout 4 were morons and didn't realize that Fallout ghouls aren't actually undead. I mean, just look at the way ferals behave in that game for more evidence of this theory...

    Ox Carol said that she was born in 2051, meaning that seeing as the bombs dropped in 2077, she would have been around 26 years old, meaning she would have been fully grown. However, it is strange how she describes herself as a little girl when the bombs dropped.

      LordHitchhiker Yeah that was always weird, but I chalk it up to 25/26 being comparatively childish to how old she is now.

    The first time I talked to Ahzrukhal, I noticed the option to buy Charon's contract but didn't think much of it. When I later got back it turns out you can also buy the contract for 1000 caps with high enough Charisma

    It's funny that you say "he could possibly be killed" because my first playthrough I walked ten feet outside Underworld and he got shot to death by Super Mutants.

    And this is why i wish there were companion quests. Like, imagine if after a while charon confides in you that he hates the life he was conditioned to live in, and his contract includes a clause to release him from said contract if you do this and this, and you and charon go and do those things. Then after the contract is null, depending on your karma, charon stays with you, he leaves you, or charon decides to kill you.

    they really missed an opportunity here. he could have been prewar and full of lore.
    and rather than simply having his contract, you could have had the option to buy it it give it to him, setting him free. i picture a sort of Aladdin and Genie moment where he is shocked someone would do that for him and then becomes a friend and follower.

    Possibly could be bethesda's math is off, either in fallout four, or here. If the year was a typo, and should have been 2061, Carol would have been 15 or 16 when the bombs fell, (depending on her birthday), assuming that fallout 4's date of the bombs falling holds true over the game arc. Which would make more sense, as the way she talks about Carol seems reminiscent of someone who has the emotional attachment of a relationship, though who has not yet achieved the maturity to approach the subject as an adult.
    Alternatively, another explanation, is that twenty year olds are treated like 16 year olds are treated by society today, where they're deemed unable to make legal decisions on their own, and thus it would explain several other characters' desertions from their families, such as Mags and William from the Nuka World DLC, and the majority of Raiders, as they're usually appearing to be around 20 years of age
