* BerserkButton: He does not like being called a cowboy. Chapter Nine reveals that he doesn't regard them as intelligent individuals, so it's inferred that he considers the word an insult to his own intellect.

* ExperiencedProtagonist: This fanfic takes place years after the end of New Vegas, with Six already maxing out his Skills according to Closure. That being said, it's implied that the years he spent trying to govern New Vegas have caused some of them to stagnate.



* FishOutofWater: Six is a retro-futuristic post-apocalyptic survivor thrown into a world of smartphones, cities on wheels, magic, magical storms, people with animal traits, and magic-rock cancer.



* GeniusBruiser: With a high Endurance and Intelligence, Six would certainly count as one. He rarely puts that muscle to use in a melee, however, preferring to stuff his enemies with lead, lasers, and plasma.

The threat of contracting Oripathy- the same affliction that plagued so many of his victims- is what convinces Ingra to cave in.

Unfortunately, it is destroyed in a firefight between him and the thieves, and he and ED-E get flung onto another world. One with as much strife as the Back-when Times and its share of conspiracies looking to capitalize on it. Six has two objectives now; find a way back home, and prevent any of its technology from falling into the locals' hands. Least history repeats itself and Terra suffers as the Old World did.!!This fanfic provides examples of:

* BottomlessMagazines: Inverted. Since Terra lacks the elements to brew Earth's gunpowder, Six's ballistic ammunition is finite. While ED-E pop some ammo for Energy Weapons, he can only produce so much per day.

''[[http://fanfiction.net/s/13961814/1/Let-Nothing-Fall-to-Chance Let Nothing Fall to Chance]]'' is a crossover between ''VideoGame/FalloutNewVegas'' and ''VideoGame/Arknights'' written by [[@/TheShattered0513 Chronicler of Unseen Stars]] on FF.net and [[http://archiveofourown.org/works/40872564/chapters/102423438 Archive Of Our Own]].

The year is 2288. Over two centuries have passed since the Great War ravaged the Earth. Seven since Courier Number Six was dug out of his early gave and six since he forever changed the Mojave Wasteland. Having usurped House from his throne and kicked Ceaser's Legion and NRC out of the wasteland, Six would go on to establish. the Free Economic Zone of New Vegas. To his dismay, the burden of leading a fledging nation has fallen to him. Between politics and overseeing the Big MT Research Facility, he feels like a prisoner of the Mojave and longs for another adventure. He gets his wish when someone steals the fallen satellite from the drive-in theater and ventures off with a small party to retrieve it.

Unfortunately, it is destroyed in a firefight between him and the thieves, and he and ED-E get flung onto another world. One with as much strife as the Back-when Times and its share of conspiracies looking to capitalize on it. Six has two objectives now; find a way back home, and prevent any of its technology from falling into the locals' hands. Least history repeats itself and Terra suffers as the Old World did.!!This fanfic provides examples of:
* TheAce: Six already maxed out all his Skills before the start of the fanfic. That being said, his actual mastery in certain areas is implied to have atrophied due to spending so much time trying to keep New Vegas from tearing itself apart.
* AmnesiacHero: The head injury Six suffers at the beginning of New Vegas has wiped his memories of everything before that fateful night. To insult to injury, his face was apparently mangled before said gunshots. Whatever identity and life he had up until that point is effectively gone. That being said, some dreams or flashbacks do imply that shreds of his old memories survived, albeit distorted to hell and back.
* {{Adaptational Badass}}: Crownslayer is presented as a far more capable fighter than in the Reunion Arc, enough that she initially pinned down Six after meeting him in the ruins of Chernobog. Seeing as that the fanfic is set after the Chernobog Incident, this is partially justified.
* {{Adaptational Villainy}}: While Ingra was far from a saint during the Kazimierz side stories, he has joined a slaver's guild following his exile in ''Near Light''.
* BadassLongcoat: Six has a preference for this type of attire, with the [[GasMaskLongcoat Elite Riot Gear]] serving as his default attire. The Crimson Troupe seems to have taken notice of this, given the outfits they make him wear during his 'stay' at Bioven Manor.
* BulletTime: Six doesn't shy from using VATS and '''Implant GRX''' to get a bead on his enemies or out of a sticky situation. Of course, he can only use the latter in limited supply each day.
* BornUnLucky: Six's Luck is a 3. Not as terrible as [[Fanfic/DustInTheWind another Courier's]], but still...
* TheCasanova: Six makes use of the '''Lady Killer''' Perk during his time on Terra. Fiammetta is reduced to a stuttering mess after he suggests 'Bombshell' as her next codename in the early chapters. Crownslayer has been hit on at least twice during his travels with her.
* CoveredInScars: Six is mentioned to be this in passing during Chapter 14.
* {{Cyborg}}: While Six retains all of his original organs, the alterations Big MT made to them remain. He also has a high enough Endurance to have purchased every in-game implant.
* TheDreaded: Six has the '''Terrifying Presence''' Perk, making use of it during the early chapters. Word of his actions in the Mojave has also spread to other states back on Earth, as one of the Iron Devils panics at the mere mention of him (Something that Magallan exploits).
* {{Fantastic Racism}}:
** Six does not seem to hold a high opinion of Laterano. Part of it may stem from the fact that Terra's firearms require Arts training (something he currently lacks). Part of it may also stem from his strained relationship with the Brotherhood of Steel.
** As in canon, Terra's Infected suffer from prejudice.
* FieryRedhead: Though this is to be expected from Fiammetta, Crownslayer is also portrayed as such here.
* {{Gratuitous Foreign Language}}: The author has thrown in shades of this for various characters, especially for [[ForeignCussWord cursing]].
** [[GratuitousItalian Gratuitous Siracusan]]: Chiave swears at the sight of a [[spoiler:feral Goul]]. Crownslayer in turn has spent enough time in Siracusa to pick up the tongue herself, though she seems to prefer Ursine.
** [[GratuitousFrench Gratuitous Gaulish]]: The Crimson Troupe.
** [[GratuitousGerman Gratuitous Leithanian]]: Gieszler.
** [[GratuitousLatin Gratuitous Latin/Lateran]]: Six is familiar enough with Latin to understand Legionaries, and replied to Larsson in kind to troll him.
** [[GratuitousRussian Gratuitous Ursine]]: Having been born in Ursus, Crownslayer tends to speak her mother tongue on occasion.
* [[GuysSmashGirlsShoot Guys Smash, Girls Shoot]]: Inverted with most of Six's Terran companions. He and Leonhardt both prefer ranged combat, and the only girls who feel the same are Exusiai, April, and Suzuran.
* {{Heroes Want Redheads}}: Considering that he has (at the time of this typing) only used his '''Lady Killer''' Perk on Fiammetta and Crownslayer, it can be inferred that he has a preference for redheads. Then again, he does consider Shining to be a looker as well.
* [[HollywoodAtheist Hollywood Atheist]]: Based on his dialogue, Six is implied to be one.
* ImmuneToDrugs: Or at least resistant to addiction, considering that he has the '''Daytripper '''Perk.
* LeeroyJenkins: Crownslayer pulls one after overhearing a radio transmission between mercenaries plotting to [[spoiler:raid the Sarcaphcous]].
* MadeofIron: With an Endurance of 10, '''Sub-Dermal Armor''', '''Adamantium Skeleton''', and '''Monocyte Breeder''', Six is practically a tank back on post-apocalyptic Earth. Compared to the Terrans, however, he might be about as good as their average soldiers.
* OutsideContextProblem:
** For the Wastelanders, Arts. Six thought he was tripping when he first saw Arts in action. The Iron Devils in turn flummoxed by Mudrock's geokinesis.
** For the Terrans, the Wasteland's weapons and robots. The ones brought to Terra do not originium as an energy source or ammunition.
* {{Renegade Splinter Faction}}: The Iron Devils appear to be this to the Rust Devils. Whether or not the latter still exists in the present day remains unseen.
* [[pmwiki.php/RetiredBadass Retired Badass]]: It's implied that Douglas- a Ghoul trader Six meets after the second battle for Hoover Dam- is a [[spoiler:[[VideoGame/{{Fallout76}} Seventy-Sixer]]]].
* SlidingScaleOfGameplayAndStoryIntegration: Six has a HUD displayed in his vision via neural implant, his Pip-Boy and ED-E are both equipped with subspace storage, and Crownslayer's ability to bypass Operators is portrayed as a form of limited intangibility.
* {{Tsundere}}: Crownslayer has shades of this in this fanfic, though it only appears to be a chemical reaction as of Chapter 14.
