Fallout New Vegas was very warmly welcomed by players, and many gamers believe that it is the best part of the series. What is more it takes place in the same part of the world as the TV show, so players have even more reasons to revisit this title. Many people look for familiar characters from the show. Of course, one of them is The Ghoul, Cooper Howard. Let’s find him.

The Ghoul's Role in Fallout New Vegas

Of course, ghouls are not a new occurrence in the Fallout universe. They are known from the original game. Most of them were created during the Great War of 2077, and some even earlier. They can live for hundreds of years, so occurrence of Cooper Howard in any of the previous games is possible.

While many players look for this character in Fallout 4 because it is the closest game in the chronological manner; it is Fallout New Vegas which is more likely to feature The Ghoul. It takes place in the same region, as the TV show, while F4 is on the other coast of the former USA. What is more, FNV timeline is also close to the show starting date, with only 15 years apart. It means that even regular humans presented in the game could appear in the TV series. It is even easier for The Ghoul, as the time works differently for him.

However, regardless of the game, Howard is nowhere to be found, as it is a new character, and it is his first appearance in the series. Nevertheless, we are sure that it will not be for a long time, as modders will fix this issue soon enough.
