I survived because the fire inside burned brighter than the fire around me. I fell down into that dark chasm, but the flame burned on and on.

约书亚.格雷汉姆 (曾名為馬爾佩斯特使,坊間稱為燃燒者 )是一名摩门传教士,凯撒军团共同创始者, 以及軍團的首任特使。

格雷汉姆指挥的第一次胡佛大坝之战以耻辱性的失败告终。凯撒决定杀一儆百,告诉大家失败在军团里是不可接受的。。。即使你位高权重。格雷汉姆身上被浇上沥青,点火后被扔下了大峡谷。然而,他活了下来。2281年成為死馬部落的酋長。.

背景[]

摩门传教士[]

约书亚.格雷汉姆生于犹他州奥格登,早年接受传教士的教育和训练。2246年,他启程向废土传递福音,沿15号州际和89号公路 Route 89 南下亚利桑那州。在大峡谷,命运的安排讓他遇见了两名末日追随者教徒 - 比尔.卡尔霍恩 和 爱德华.夏罗,他们来此的目的是研究战后世界开始萌芽的部落方言。而格雷汉姆恰恰能流利使用多种方言。他决定加入这只九人探险小队,协助他们的研究。

2247年,小队拜访了黑脚部落。不知道是被部落设计还是格雷汉姆翻译出了差错。总而言之,小队被软禁了。此时,黑脚正于其他七个部落交战,一场必败之战。不甘于随黑脚陪葬的夏罗不顾卡尔霍恩的反对,利用他的知识向缺乏战略能力的黑脚部落传授战争知识 - 向他们展示如何清洁维护枪械 - 演练小队战术 - 自制炸药 - 以及指挥他们在战略上先击破最弱的敌人;“divide et impera” - 分而破之。黑脚族对他叹为观止,并将他选为领袖,从此 - 他自封为:“凯撒”。

尽管算是获得了自由,约书亚.格雷汉姆还是愿意留下为凯撒担当翻译。然而很快翻译工作变成了指挥工作,以至指挥战争 - 训练 - 威压。而卡尔霍恩则被送返追随者,报告凯撒的所为。最终,七个部落或被毁灭,或加入了凯撒的军队。凯撒与格雷汉姆将被征服或降服的部落整编为凯撒军团,而格雷汉姆则成为了首位军团特使。

格雷汉姆从来不是个特别出色的战略家,他的战术运用也不算灵活,他的威压和残忍臭名昭著:他的残暴之举使人们对他深感恐惧 - 无论是敌是友。他即危险又难以捉摸,而真正让他声名在外的,是他的命硬,仿佛他是杀不死的一般。。。游騎兵也拿他没办法:第一侦察营至少五次报告了他的死讯。

由于深得凯撒信任,他被授予第一次胡佛大坝之战的指挥权,为军团夺取大坝的能源,并以此作为夺取新维加斯的跳板。军团在战役初期接连胜利,NCR战略撤退至巨石城,沿路布置炸药并在撤退中继续狙击军团指挥官。格雷汉姆没能识破NCR的计策,同时他已经被胜利所陶醉。等他嗅到C4塑料炸药的气味时,一切都晚了,军团部队在爆炸声中覆灭了。

格雷汉姆的失败令凯撒狂怒,令他个人对此负全责,并下令将他处决。军团特使被禁军守卫浇上沥青,点火后被扔下了大峡谷 - 作为一个警示:军团不会容忍失败,哪怕你位及人臣。

即使在多年之后 - 当人们都认为他早已死去,他的真名依然是军团里的禁忌 ,凯撒下令,犯禁者将处极刑。所有关于他还在生的流言都被军团内的高级指挥官淡化了。但在下级军团成员和奴隶阶层,“被焚者”被传为一个终将归来的复仇之魂。凯撒深知Graham依然在世,并派遣了众多斥候和刺客在科罗拉多河以东搜寻他的下落,惧怕他终有一日会寻机报复。

在解决了不少军团派遣刺客的后,约书亚.格雷汉姆向新伽南进发。军团带给他的第二次洗礼转变了他,最新点燃了他的信仰,洗去了他的骄傲于虚荣。经过三个月极度痛苦的旅程,他回到了新伽南,在那里他受到了欢迎 - 仿佛他从未另他之前的所为从未另他们蒙羞一般。

由于凯撒急切的希望制他于死地,他的回归令摩门城面临不可避免的灭顶之灾。2281年,白腿部落在凯撒授命下毁灭了这座城市,将居民屠戮怠尽。丹尼尔与格雷汉姆带领30名幸存者逃至锡安峡谷,在那里他们和当地部落一起定居下来。由于继续受到白腿部落的追逐,格雷汉姆决心要保卫峡谷,他成为了死马部落的酋长,希望能集结他们对抗白腿,如同多年前凯撒集合黑脚对抗敌对部落一样。格雷汉姆也希望在击败敌对部落以报新伽南之仇的同时,能为他的过往赎罪。

尽管曾经想凯撒效忠,被焚者对于NCR联手并无憎恶之意。对他来说,NCR是可以被挽救的,人心的贪婪是大战爆发的根源,只有通过对上帝的信仰 - 祈祷 - 真诚的仁义之举,人类才有希望避免历史再次重演。

Honest-Heartsburing1

He also has a dim opinion of Mr. House, seeing him as another Caesar; a man who rallied together his own set of tribes using his own methods to assume domination over others.

他对军团的恨意不单是因为凯撒将他作为杀一儆百的榜样,更多的是凯撒相信仅靠自己的意愿就能将废土统一在军团的旗帜下,而他不会让任何人阻挠他。而他最大的恨是对自己的悔恨,恨自己为凯撒的崛起扫清了道路,恨自己充当他的使节以及为了稳固凯撒的统治实施了众多的暴行。他曾经相信的,期望可以实现的平等社会已经变成了一人独裁的极权主义。

與玩家的互動[]

范布倫[]

概述[]

约书亚.格雷汉姆 (當時他的稱號是「絞刑人」)最初出现在范布伦计划中,在此版本中他将是一个可招募的队友,也是数据上最优秀的队友,不过从某些方面来说他很邪恶,而且会让主角的游戏过程充满麻烦。He was intended to be a "jinxed" non-player character, like the pariah dog.

玩家行為的影響[]

約書亞·格拉漢姆因攻打阿拉德什要塞慘敗,在Fort Abandon被處以絞刑,而主角囚徒可以把他救下,he Hanged Man would tag along with the Prisoner. He was wrapped from head to toe in bandages as he had been burned all over his entire body. Save for the fact that he had a connection to Caesar's Legion and was particularly ticked off at them, he would not provide many details about himself.

Rescuing the Hanged Man would cause all the tribals in the region to be angry with the Prisoner as the tribals would blame him for future crimes committed by the Hanged Man. In addition, 當地人對他非常厭惡,絞刑人會 try to butcher any Twin Mothers tribals he could find. Having him in the party would make dealing with tribals and some towns extremely difficult.

The Hanged Man would not enter New Canaan. Upon arrival, he would initiate dialogue with the Prisoner and tell him/her that he had something to take care of, offering to meet at Burham Springs later on.[1] Bishop Mordecai would be able to reveal some details about him.

Upon entering Burham Springs, the Hanged Man might quote 2 Chronicles 28. The Hanged Man would laughingly refuse to drop his weapons if commanded to by Phil, possibly even inciting Phil to open fire on the party. It would be very difficult for the Prisoner to defuse the situation.[2]

赤誠之心[]

互動一覽[]

初次和格雷汉姆对话时,他会说你“。。不是他预料中的那个邮差。。” 随后又说:“。。话说回来,那个家伙不会跟着商队来的。” 暗示他预料中的那个邮差是尤利西斯- 军团派来的刺客。

当被问道关于他被烧伤的“私人”问题,他说疼痛是无休止的。他还提到药物(止痛药)对他无效,而且每天他都要换绷带,每次换绷带的痛苦就如同在大峡谷被烈火焚身一般,他这么做是因为:“干净比舒服重要。。”

Endings[]

After a long and troubled life, Joshua Graham finally found rest in Zion. In the end, his unswerving militancy had accomplished what the NCR's finest sharpshooters and Caesar's wrath could not. The New Canaanites took comfort in the belief that their brother's soul would again dwell in Zion at the end of days. Kill Joshua Graham.

Nvdlc02 endingslide joshua
The threat of the White Legs ended, Joshua Graham helped the Sorrows and Dead Horses tend to their fallen comrades and secure Zion. The Courier's words had stayed Joshua's wrath in his darkest hour, and in sparing Salt-Upon-Wounds, he was changed. While he continued to advocate militant opposition to the enemies of New Canaan, he sometimes showed quarter to those who crossed his family. Eventually this new spirit would diminish the myth of the Burned Man in distant lands - a small price for the peace it brought to Joshua Graham. Help Joshua Graham Defend Zion Valley and exterminate the White Legs, then convince Joshua Graham to spare Salt-Upon-Wounds.

With the White Legs crushed, Joshua Graham led the Sorrows and Dead Horses in tearing apart and burning the corpses of their enemies. He set about training his army in the "Way of the Canaanite," and soon the New Canaanites and tribes of Zion were feared well into the Mojave. Legends of the Burned Man grew even more depraved, and terrifying. Help Joshua Graham crush the White Legs and then allow Joshua Graham to execute Salt-Upon-Wounds.

Nvdlc02 endingslide joshua
Though the Courier had stopped Joshua Graham from executing Salt-Upon-Wounds, the war chief still fell in battle. The White Legs defeated at Three Marys, Joshua led the Sorrows and Dead Horses in tending to their comrades and burning the corpses of their foes. He continued to advocate militant opposition to the enemies of New Canaan and showed little quarter to those he fought. And yet he was changed. He no longer reveled in the brutality and cruelty for which he had been known in his former life. His inner demons, if not extinguished, were at the least... appeased. Help Joshua Graham crush the White Legs and kill Salt-Upon-Wounds yourself.

  • Joshua, along with Calhoun and Caesar, appears on the back of the Legion Denarius.
  • Despite claiming that he accepts all forms of currency (in his words, "even Legion coin") you cannot sell Legion Denarii to him.

  • He is also a master with melee weapons and uses the butt end of his unique .45 Auto pistol as a powerful melee weapon.
  • In-game, Joshua's bandages cover most of his face, and despite being horrifically burned, the flesh around his eyes appears slightly grey and his eyebrows appear to have been able to regrow fine.
  • A Legion affiliated Courier can confront Graham and ask him what would happen if Caesar is to be aware of his survival. He simply says even if he were to be killed, Caesar will not acknowledge his death in order to avoid admitting failure in killing Graham.
    • If the Courier has killed Caesar, they will have a dialogue option to tell Graham that Caesar is dead. He does not give much of a reaction, but notes his surprise that Caesar died before he did and gives his opinion about the future of the Legion. He believes that Legate Lanius is not capable in leading the Legion in the long run and states it has died alongside with Caesar.

  • 约书亚作为同伴时,如果信使到处丟手榴彈,他会提醒你不要在锡安乱丟。
  • Joshua's pre-burned face is shaped differently than his post-burned face.
  • Joshua is one of two characters in Fallout: New Vegas to possess an irremovable mask - the other being Ulysses.
  • Joshua Graham is one of the few named non-player characters in the game to be affected by the Sneering Imperialist perk.

Notable quotes[]

Appearances[]

Joshua Graham appears in the Fallout: New Vegas add-on Honest Hearts. He is mentioned frequently, for example: in a loading screen in Dead Money and by Ulysses in Lonesome Road.

He was also to appear in Van Buren, the canceled Fallout 3 by Black Isle Studios.

幕後[]

  • A malpaís is a landform characterized by eroded rocks of volcanic origin in an arid environment. This describes many areas, but is strongly connected to the southwestern United States because of the Spanish settlers that gave the landform its name (malpais means "badland" in Spanish).
  • 其名約書亞,來源於the Book of Joshua which tells the campaigns of the Israelites in Canaan,希伯來語含義是「耶和華的解救」。
  • Within the G.E.C.K. there exist references to a map above the western cliffs of the Colorado River designated "MalpaisLegionCamp," indicating that such a location once existed in an earlier version of New Vegas but was later removed. Notably, a reference for Benny is found there, should he survive the events that took place at the Fort.
  • Both in Van Buren and in Honest Hearts, Joshua Graham was written by Joshua Sawyer.
  • His calm, collected incarnation in Honest Hearts is vastly different from the angry, uncontrollable Van Buren version.
  • Graham's return to Mormonism is based upon the parable of the Prodigal Son.[3]
  • Graham's self-described "baptism by flame" seems to be a dual reference to both his "death" at the hands of Caesar, and his symbolic rebirth by way of the Mormon laying of hands, which is also known as "baptism by fire" which is the conferring of the Holy Ghost.[4]
  • The inspiration for Graham came from a lot of sources, such as Paul the Apostle, Rodrigo Mendoza from The Mission, and Lawrence of Arabia. Also, the tribal markings on his armor were a reference to Rodrigo Mendoza as well.[5]
  • The animation of Joshua Graham inspecting .45 Auto pistols consists of him grabbing a pistol from the table, pulling the slide back into slide lock, removing the magazine, looking into the ejection port and the barrel, reinserting the magazine, pulling the slide back into place and putting the pistol back onto the table.
  • 約書亞·格拉漢姆說他和死馬部落用.45自動手槍是因為其設計者是他們的的祖先, implied to be the Mormons。.45自動手槍是來自現實約翰·白朗寧設計的柯爾特M1911手槍, a Mormon firearms maker who lived in Ogden, Utah close to where New Canaan would be in the Fallout universe.

Developers' quotes[]

Lanius' armor seemed inappropriate for Graham. Though it's unlikely that Joshua would have worn the same clothes then that he does when you meet him in Honest Hearts, there weren't a lot of other appropriate clothes for him and his outfit does make him stand out as particularly unusual - which, even among the Legion, he was.J. E. Sawyer, (when questioned on why Joshua Graham doesn't wear a traditional Legion's armor)
It's not as simple as being "set on fire". After suffering a terrible failure, he was humiliated by his superior and the people he commanded. He was cast out and left for dead. His entire reason for living was gone. When your entire way of life is completely destroyed, it has a profound impact on how you view yourself and your place in the world. Because all momentum is lost, the experience causes you to evaluate and re-evaluate how you have reached this point -- and how to move forward. There are thousands, if not millions, of examples of soldiers in history who engaged in ruthless -- often cruel -- behavior in times of war only to either return to an "ordinary" civilized life later. Some of them have no problem with what they did, others repress their memories as much as they can, and still others suffer strong crises of conscience that force profound changes in them. As Graham describes, his path to becoming the Malpais Legate was made up of many small compromises that turned increasingly sinister and brutal. At first he thought he was making the best of a bad situation and doing what needed to be done, but in the end he and Caesar had built a society on a foundation of fear and brutality. Caesar had a more grand vision for where the Legion was going, but Joshua Graham was caught up in the day to day maintenance of a tribal army engaged in bleak and often monstrous behavior. It was not until he was removed from that environment that he was able to reflect on his past. He could have chosen to blame Caesar, but in the end he blamed himself. The only people he knew in the world who could possibly accept him were the New Canaanites, so that's where he headed.J. E. Sawyer
Because re-hiring a voice actor (especially a high profile actor like John Doman) isn't always simple, and touching Caesar's dialogue in the core game -- well, it's already really complicated, and introducing elements that could affect the critical path is pretty dangerous, especially if it's accomplished through the DLC files (because we couldn't patch it).J. E. Sawyer, (when questioned on the possibility of including Graham-related dialogue with Caesar)
