Main Dialogue#

Generic#

A generic goodbye line for Ulysses:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Enough talking, then.	00133fcb

These lines would be used when dismissing Ulysses from the player's party:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Watch Yourself.	0015ec98
Ulysses	The Mojave awaits.	0015ec99

When trying to hire Ulysses:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	No need for me to watch an empty road and lose myself staring in flames. I'll walk with you.	0015c52b
Ulysses	You've already got a shadow. You don't need any more company. If you find yourself alone again, circle back around, I'll be here.	0015eec9

Introduction#

First Meeting#

This dialogue is for the player's first meeting with Ulysses, here he would muse on the player's reason for coming as far as Wolfhorn Ranch:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Figure whatever it was brought you here was important enough.	0015ec83
Ulysses	People don't wander miles for no reason at all unless they're touched in the head. And you may have been touched, but not that way.	0015ec83

He could be asked about the ranch also:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	I don't. Place looks like a watched post except nobody keeping watch. Until that makes sense, not going to move.	0015ec84
Ulysses	Could have put out the fire I suppose. Just worried about the message it would send if I did.	0015ec84

Here he speculates on the Courier's origin, while also providing some background on himself:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Neither you. Yet here we are.	0015ec85
Ulysses	Your boots got dust of the West on them, not just Mojave dust. So far West you've walked through twisters from the Divide.	0015ec85
Ulysses	I'm from East of the Colorado from one of the 19 tribes that fell to the bull. Now just a tribe of one.	0015ec85

The player could also ask him about some possessions of his, that Ulysses says are to keep the spirits away. It is not clear what they are, but Ulysses would comment on the player's Pip-Boy in response:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Pieces of the old world. Like to keep them close. Keeps the spirits quiet.	0015eca0
Ulysses	Maybe that's why you've got that piece of the old world on your arm there. Helps make sense of things sometimes.	0015eca0

If asked to use the fire:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Fire isn't mine, so share and share alike. I've no claim on it.	0015ec8c
Ulysses	Didn't take you for someone who made their living on the Mojave's back, aside from walking on it.	0015ec8c

It seems the player could also ask him where he came from:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	East of the Colorado. My tribe had its home there before Caesar came.	0015c52c

A similar line:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	I'm out West because of the Legion.	0015fa98

Observations About The Courier#

Ulysses would make a number of observations about the player as a part of his introduction. Some of these are dependent on the player's standing with the NCR and Legion.

Generic

These are a number of generic observations about the Courier's scars that apply to all players:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Got bullet scars, someone looks like they took a knife to parts of your face too. It's ok, that's not the kind of pretty I care about.	0015ec8b
Ulysses	Maybe you want to get away from something, maybe find something. Whatever it is that's you and yours.	0015ec8b

He would speculate on the Courier's travels also:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Your boots have history. So does your face.	0015ec9c
Ulysses	Got dust on your boots from places miles away, from places outside of the Mojave too.	0015ec9c
Ulysses	Not exactly sure where you're from. But you walked a ways to get here.	0015ec9c

Caesar's Legion

At some point Ulysses would make an observation on the player's Legion disguise (if they were wearing one). This dialogue is in the April build as well, but the actual prompt to trigger it seems to be missing. Here Ulysses makes a comment on how he can see through the player's disguise:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	You walk like someone from the West. You were not raised in the East. It shows.	0015c43a
Ulysses	It's rare for a legionnaire to walk this far West, and so openly. Most Legion camp East of the Colorado.	0015c43a

A set of responses that would've followed this comment. Some of these are slightly altered from what was found in the April build:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Player	Then you heard wrong.
Ulysses	Don't know about that. Guess we'll see how things play out. You've got the spine for it at least.	0013847f
Player	That an insult?
Ulysses	Only if you take it as an insult. Just making an observation. Next time I'll keep it to my self.	0013848a
Player	I'm interested in joining them, actually.
Ulysses	Your decision, if they'll take you. It's on them.	0013848b
Player	I don't need to join the Legion, just get by.
Ulysses	I hear you. I just don't want to be hearing it atop a telephone pole with your hands welcoming the sky with nails in them.	0013848d
Ulysses	And that's their kindness if they catch you. Wouldn't wish that death on anyone, especially those that were just trying to get by.	0013848d
Player	[Legion] These are my colors.
Ulysses	Must have joined recent, then. You've got the spine for it though, no doubting that.	00138480
Ulysses	Long way from home. Most of Caesar's legion was East of the river.	00138480
Player	It's not where, it's how you serve that matters to Caesar.
Ulysses	Truth in that. Just like Legion to say as much.	00138489
Ulysses	No offence, when I first spoke thought you'd been picking at Legion corpses. Lot of scavengers like that nowadays.	00138489
Player	You seem to know a lot about Legion standards.
Ulysses	I know less than some. Enough to know what they'll do to you when they catch on.	00138483
Ulysses	It's your life, though. Not trying to tell you how to live it. Just sharing my thoughts.	00138483
Player	What do you mean?
Ulysses	Your colors might fool a centurion, but the way you wear your gear tells a different story. You aren't from the East.	00138483
Ulysses	Your pace, stance, would have a decanus down on you like a wolf. Wouldn't mask your scent from legion hounds either, so I would take care if I were you.	00138483
Player	I'm not particular when it comes to my gear.
Ulysses	That much I can see. Others may not be so understanding. On both sides.	00138487
Player	That an insult?
Ulysses	Not to me. Legion catches you with those colors though, the sand will run red.	00138488

This dialogue is specific to a female character:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Player	I'm interested in joining them, actually.
Ulysses	I think the curve of your hips rules that out. Legion doesn't let women take up machetes unless they want farming done.	0013848c
Ulysses	That's them though. I don't have a problem with whoever is carrying a weapon, long as it's not pointed at me.	0013848c
Player	[Legion] These are my colors.
Ulysses	Tell Caesar that. Last I heard you needed a weapon between your legs to carry one for Caesar.	00138481
Player	In that case, I doubt you've ever seen a real weapon.
Ulysses	Now what are you...? Eh, fair enough. I challenged your manhood, now you challenge mine.	00138484
Player	It's how you serve that matters to Caesar.
Ulysses	Hmm, guess the bear's already winning if Caesar's letting you raise a sword in his name.	00138482

New California Republic

Ulysses has some dialogue to comment on an NCR disguise as well. He has fewer lines to comment on an NCR disguise than a Legion one, many of the responses from the April build are absent here as well. There doesn't seem to be a prompt to lead into these lines, and some of them are slightly modified when compared with the April build:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Player	[NCR] What makes you think I'm from the Republic?
Ulysses	You wear the bear's colors, unless that gear isn't yours. If you took them from a soldier, I'm not judging you.	001385c2
Player	[NCR] I'd watch that tone when you talk about NCR.
Ulysses	If you do, that's why I'm here alone. No offense meant though. I think traffic's got me on edge.	001385ba
Player	Is that a complaint?
Ulysses	Not unless Rangers are in waiting in the rocks. Republic's a rare sight around here. That isn't unusual.	001385b7
Ulysses	I think there's been some trouble. Maybe something you and your New California need to deal with.	001385b7
Player	[NCR] If it's a military matter maybe I can help.
Ulysses	That's a rare answer. It's unfortunate only I can hear it, not those who give you your orders.	001385bc
Ulysses	Still, perhaps it's good you came along when you did.	001385bc
Player	It comes to a fight, they'll get one.
Ulysses	You and the bear have it all in hand. I see it everywhere I go.	{{collapse\| tempvdialogueu_vdialogueulysse_00138486
Ulysses	Though you look more capable than most that have tried. They're on telephone poles now, talking to God.	00138486

This line seems to be present in the July build only, but doesn't really fit with the others. It suggests the above sequence may have been in the process of being changed:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	And which head of the bear is offering? No I don't need any help. You are the only traveler I've seen.	0015c43f

Smoke At Nipton#

After a brief conversation, the player would learn that Ulysses is waiting for news from Nipton. Here he brings to the player's attention the trouble at Nipton. There are a few lines for this:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Player
Ulysses	Waiting, watching the fires.	0015ec95
Player
Ulysses	Still, maybe it's good you came along, if only so I can warn you. You're the first traveler I've seen.	001631e9
Player
Ulysses	Road's been empty for some time now. No sign of life except the fire here, and the fires of Nipton.	001631f8

This seems to have led into this:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Can't see the smoke in the distance? Let your eyes follow the break in the mountain South and West. Town, border of the bear. Something's on fire.	0015ec89
Ulysses	Not the buildings, would be a different kind of smoke. Looks like tires burning, or maybe people.	0015ec89
Ulysses	No matter which, not looking to get added to the pile.	0015ec89

He will elaborate a bit more on the current trouble at the town if asked:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Last time I walked Nipton was years ago. Heard more on the road about it since from people living and dead.	0015ec8e
Ulysses	If you've searched Nipton, let me know. If you're shedding tears - past the gangs, the mayor, and its hospitality, Mojave is better off without it.	0015ec8e
Ulysses	As long as the people died quick it's better than dying slow under the bear's shadow.	0015ec8e

Here he says he will stay at his camp until he receives word from Nipton. Scouting Nipton was a prerequisite for recruiting Ulysses.

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Ran out of road as soon as I saw the fires. Figured I'd seen as much as I was likely to see and keep breathing.	0015ec90
Ulysses	I'm going to stay here until Nipton gives an answer, then I'll move on. Suggest you do the same.	0015ec90

Scouting Mission#

After a conversation, Ulysses would offer the player advice for if they wanted to investigate further.

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Player
Ulysses	Nipton may have already answered with its silence. I've seen nothing from here.	0015c52d
Ulysses	If you go, circle the town first, and watch for scavengers from the Mojave and the townspeople.	0015c52d
Player
Ulysses	Still, wouldn't be the first time my advice found deaf ears.	0015ec8f
Ulysses	So, if you end up going, circle the town first. Even if nothing's wrong, Nipton isn't known for its hospitality.	0015ec8f

There is a version of this exchange also where Ulysses would advise the player not to go. This may have been part of an alternate dialogue branch, or dependent on the player's level:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Player
Ulysses	Couldn't ask you to do that. Wouldn't.	001611e4
Ulysses	If Nipton's burning, there's a reason. The bear couldn't keep it one way or the other. Don't want you suffering for its mistake.	001611e4
Player
Ulysses	Haven't lived this long because of curiosity. I'll keep watch here.	001611e5
Ulysses	If you're looking to get closer, that's on you. Wouldn't ask you to go. Don't think you should.	001611e5

Another version of the prompt:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	They may be gone, or fled. Towns are isolated along the border, no telling what could have happened.	0015ecba
Ulysses	If you find cause for the attack, I would be interested to know.	0015ecba

News About Nipton#

Once the player had successfully scouted Nipton, they could report back to Ulysses with their findings.

Here he reacts to the player bringing him news that the Legion are responsible for what happened to Nipton:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Thought powder gangers might have been involved, Legion's a surprise. They usually put nails in problems, not set them on fire.	0015ec8d
Ulysses	Suspected as much. That smoke isn't from home fires burning. That kind of smoke's either people or old world rubber.	0015ec8d
Ulysses	From the smell I'm guessing it's people. Trace of gunpowder, too.	0015ec8d

Here he elaborates on what the attack at Nipton says about the NCR's future:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Guess the bear's got another cut in its hide, or a burn in its rug.	0015ec87
Ulysses	It's like the Legion putting cigarettes out on it, one at a time. Won't last long at this rate.	0015ec87

Here is his reaction to being told Vulpes was responsible:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Vulpes? Bear's got cause for worry.	00160c94
Ulysses	If he's cutting across the border, they may not even realise they're bleeding until too late.	00160c94

This is likely in response to the player asking about the Legion's relationship with the Powder Gangers:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Legion doesn't have much tolerance for tribes with explosives, even if Nipton did.	0015ec88

Here he speculates on whether or not the people of Nipton fought back before they died:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	By my count, people prove themselves deserving. Other times, people prove how weak they are together. Further West I get the more I see it.	0015ec92
Ulysses	So, if they died brave, so be it. If they died scared and on their knees, that's theirs to carry, and not for long.	0015ec92
Ulysses	If you knew people in Nipton you can speak to it more than I can. All I can do now is say what happened. It's in history's hands.	0015ec92

Some more dialogue for this sequence:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Nipton was all for fighting when they were on your blind side, or if it meant shaving a few caps off you in fair trade.	0015ec97
Ulysses	I know how big Legion's scouting parties can get. They will send one, then a few. It's never an army though, and not more than a town's headcount.	0015ec97
Ulysses	Nipton had more numbers than that. Yet they all died.	0015ec97

Here he muses on what he plans to do next now that he has an update on Nipton:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Player
Ulysses	Interesting. There's a poor answer. Throwing questions back at you.	0015ec9d
Ulysses	Was waiting until Nipton gave some sign of life. If Nipton's gone ghost, no sense sitting here waiting for any kind of answer.	0015ec9d
Player
Ulysses	Not sure yet. If Legion hit Nipton, means going East or West doesn't matter much. I'll have to think on it.	0015ec91
Player
Ulysses	You braved Nipton. I'm willing to brave the Mojave with you.	0015ec9e
Player	<Alt.>
Ulysses	Still, you've already got a shadow. You don't need any more company. If you find yourself alone again, circle back around, I'll be here.	0015ec9f
Player
Ulysses	The fires of Nipton burn, and that should settle it.	00160c93
Player
Ulysses	Not by choice. Nowhere else to go. Was heading to Nipton. Not anymore.	001611e7

The player could also show Ulysses Mayor Steyn's journal had they acquired it:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	So you see the snakes that curl in the bear's shadow. Something about that mayor seemed like one who'd hoard food while others starved.	00160c84
Ulysses	Impressed you found evidence when the bear couldn't - even when it smelt the rot.	00160c84

Main Quest#

They Went That-a Way#

Ulysses could also be asked about Benny:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Player
Ulysses	Name's not familiar, why do you ask?	0015ef80
Player
Ulysses	Scars tell this story. There was a lot of care in whoever took the knife to your face after, but they left tracks too.	0015ef84
Ulysses	Must have been slow work piecing you back together. Yet they took the time to do it right. Can't see it along the forehead. Shrapnel cuts barely show.	0015ef84
Ulysses	When you find this Benny of yours, that's going to be slow work too.	0015ef84

Some more dialogue from this exchange:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Player
Ulysses	Wouldn't want to be him. Your voice took on a lot of weight just now. He the one that shot you twice in the head?	0015ef7f
Player
Ulysses	Sounds like he made a mistake in intent, or his aim. He shoot you twice in the head.	0015ef7c
Player
Ulysses	Wherever he is, I don't pity him. If you're going to shoot someone it's not a job you leave half finished.	0015ef7d

Render Unto Caesar#

During the quest Render Unto Caesar, Ulysses would comment on the player's invitation and offer them advice prior to the meeting with Caesar. This is a line where he expresses surprise at a female having been offered an invitation:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	A woman called before Caesar. An invitation to the Fort.	0015c2e3

If the player was previously aligned with the NCR but expressed interest in serving the Legion instead, Ulysses would have this advice to offer:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Trading one old world flag for another. Don't know if going to the Fort will be far enough. Your history with the bear behind.	0015c2e4
Ulysses	Caesar respects strength. If you speak to him, stand your ground. Try and run and he'll cut your tendons before you take a step.	0015c2e4
Ulysses	If he's summoned you, I wouldn't delay. Caesar doesn't invite people to speak with him. Take it as an order, not a request.	0015c2e4

If the Courier was neutral or planning on joining the Legion, Ulysses would offer similar advice:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Trading one old world flag for another. You'll have to travel far to leave your service to the bear behind.	0015c2ec
Ulysses	Caesar respects strength. If you serve him, stand your ground. Run - he'll cut your tendons before you take a step.	0015c2ec
Ulysses	It's rare, an invite like that. Caesar doesn't speak to others by invitation, only by his command.	0015c2ec

Oh My Papa#

Ulysses has dialogue pertaining to this quest as well. He offers the player a general overview of the situation, and the parallels between the Khan's assimilation and the destruction of his own tribe.

These lines would likely be used after Ulysses' reveal that he was actually a Legion scout:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	He's done the Legion's work already. Hate for the bear runs deep here, especially after the blood at Bitter Springs.	0015feee
Ulysses	It's a good sign. An alliance with the Khans only helps the Legion at Hoover Dam.	0015feee

These lines seem to be intended for if Ulysses had been convinced to back a faction other than the Legion. They could also have been intended for before the reveal, where Ulysses was posing as a traveler.

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	The Legion's playing with this tribe. And they'll crush them when they've made use of them just like they did with other tribes in the East.	0015fefc
Ulysses	We need to stop him. An alliance with the Khans would give the Legion too much strength in the coming battle.	0015fefc
Ulysses	Also, allying with the Legion means the end of these people. If you can convince them of that, they break from him.	0015fefc

This line is likely in response to the player asking Ulysses to offer his account to Papa Khan:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	My words aren't enough. I'm a stranger here. There are records, that history penned in Legion hand may prove stronger.	0015ff02

Ulysses would advise the player on where they might obtain the evidence they are looking for:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	At the Fort there is proof. Histories, ledgers, that show the Legion's march for what it is, the death of tribes one after the other.	0015ff03
Ulysses	It may help, it may not. Still, it's something. Choice is yours.	0015ff03

Here Ulysses takes a neutral stance on the situation, possibly for when he is still maintaining the guise of a traveler:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	I think we should leave it alone, but I wanted to warn you. Taking the long view. Crossing Karl could bring trouble down the road.	001600d9

Another, somewhat neutral line that may have played before the reveal:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	A similar thing happened with my tribe. Although my word won't carry much weight here, evidence from the Legion might sway them.	0015feec

This line is related to the Khans in some way, but is difficult to place:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	He doesn't have much to fear here, no surprise. And in dealing with the Khans there is little to fear there as well.	001600d7

Et Tumor, Brute?#

Ulysses has some dialogue for this quest also. Here, he reacts to the player curing Caesar of his ailment:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	So Caesar will walk among the troops again. What you've done may well have changed the history of the West.	00160c8a

This also seems highly likely to be for this quest:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	He let another hold a knife to him. If he was weak enough to allow a knife so close to his neck, a quick death's often a merciful option.	00160c82

Companion Quest#

Introduction#

This dialogue is related to Ulysses' companion quest. Judging by the indifferent stance towards Caesar's Legion, it would've played either during the initial encounter or at any time prior to his reveal. The dialogue here suggests Ulysses' dilemma faced throughout his story was that he could not place his faith in either side:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	You've walked the Mojave enough to know what kind of place that is. I've walked East of the Colorado, I know what it's like.	0015f429
Ulysses	One day this fighting's going to be done. That could be good or could be bad, depends on who's holding the flag at the end.	0015f429
Ulysses	The day I set my flag down it will be over my body, or over a nation I believe in. I'll keep it from walking history's road twice.	0015f429

This seems to be for if asked about the NCR and Legion around the time the player would scout Nipton:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Bull and the Bear. Legion and NCR. Both follow flags with symbols that go back hundreds of years. More, even.	001631ff
Ulysses	Bull goes back to times even I'm not sure about. Numbers so low in the calendar I don't know if you'd believe me if I told you.	001631ff
Ulysses	Bear's history is more recent, but it's same as the bull. It's a flag people died following. Had one head back then, but end was still the same.	001631ff

Here he adopts a neutral stance on the conflict, likely intended for the first encounter at Wolfhorn Ranch:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Let the bear and bull fight it out over the Colorado. Settle what should have been settled long ago.	001617ec
Ulysses	Traveler's easiest. Those with a meaner streak call me a tribal or refugee. Historian fits me better.	001617ec

A bit more, seemingly from this exchange:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Not looking to join them, either. So if you're bent following the bear's flag, or the bull, that's not my road.	001617f6
Ulysses	Mojave's getting tense. Can feel it in the ground. Troops marching. Lot of eyes on Hoover Dam. Guns and blades, too.	001617f6

These lines fit the theme of this conversation, and may have been intended for use here also:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Player
Ulysses	I know what I see, and I know the history of those flags better than they do.	0015faa3
Player
Ulysses	Don't need to see sickness everywhere to see the infection.	0015faa4

Thoughts On The Conflict#

It is not known at what point during his quest this dialogue would play. Here he elaborates on his fears for the land after the war's conclusion:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	The two-headed bear wins, its sickness continues, its two heads snapping at each other. All you see in the Mojave, that rot will grow.	0015fa99
Ulysses	The bull wins, the Legion makes an East of the West. Then it's got nothing left to fight.	0015fa99
Ulysses	Both of them. End of the world. Both endings they're going to die slow. Us along with it.	0015fa99

In this dialogue sequence Ulysses elaborates on the war between the factions and it's parallels with historical events:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	No, it's history coming back. It's what they get following those old world symbols on their flags down the same road history once walked.	0015fa9c
Ulysses	And over Hoover Dam too. There's an irony, nice and sharp. Two spirits of the old world, fighting over the last piece of history.	0015fa9c

This seems to be for around when he tells the player about reporting back to Caesar regarding Hoover Dam. He again brings up the importance of conviction, something the player would need to demonstrate in order to successfully complete his quest:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	As I see it, the bear and the bull need a lot of killing to see what their ideas are really about. People are going to suffer, slow or quick,	001631c4
Ulysses	History tells me the slow death at the hands of an idea usually ends up being a quick death once the bombs hit.	001631c4
Ulysses	If you aren't willing to die for an idea, it's not much of an idea.	001631c4

Thoughts On The Factions#

Caesar's Legion

Neutral/Doubtful

Ulysses has two different opinions on the Legion evident in his dialogue. In some responses, he seems either indifferent or doubtful of the Legion. These may have been intended to play for the early game, where Ulysses is still posing as a traveler.

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	They followed the flag of the bull, an old world symbol just like the Republic. Brought the East to heel, and now they've found the West.	0015faa7
Ulysses	They're looking to make that theirs, too. To them, the two-headed bear is just another tribe.	0015faa7
Ulysses	When the bear and bull clash at Hoover Dam, it's the end of the world. And neither one realises it.	0015faa7

Though a Legion scout, it seems he would have had some doubts about the Legion's future after the battle of Hoover Dam:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Still a choice. There's many serving the bear who choose to do nothing, sometimes with great energy.	0015c19e
Ulysses	Breaking away just makes another side. And in time no matter where you stand, all the West will be under the bear, or the Legion.	0015c19e
Ulysses	Legion's different. They're focused. Sharp like a knife. They just don't see beyond the next cut, and the slow bleed after.	0015c19e

Some more dialogue where Ulysses elaborates on this:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	The Legion's old world. Yet its flag, its whole reason for marching, is when there's something to fight.	0015c19f
Ulysses	The bear falls when the last NCR trooper is nailed on Caesar's crosses, that's when the Legion is going to be tested.	0015c19f

More doubts regarding the Legion:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Their flag is an old world one. Just don't think they've thought it through. The people followed that flag died once.	0015fa9a
Ulysses	If they make the West the same as the East, no more tribes to fight, then what? Not sure what's going to come after that.	0015fa9a

More dialogue where he alludes to a Legion victory not being what they think.

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	That's the view of most, when all the history they see is Hoover Dam. History keeps going after that, one battle won't end it.	00161850
Ulysses	Don't think the Legion knows what marching West means, any more than the bear knew what coming East meant.	00161850

Here he mentions something needing to “break”, though it’s unsure if he’s referring to the Legion or the conflict in general:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Caesar's stronger, faster. More troops, maybe? But they're experiencing an idea straight out of the old world facing you across the field.	001631bc
Ulysses	It's like history repeating, like a looping holotape. Something's got to break it. Something.	001631bc

Pro Legion

At some point in the game Ulysses would begin to encourage the player to support the Legion. This seems to happen before the reveal that he is a Legion spy, as in some lines he talks about the Legion in a way that suggests that he is not part of the group.

Here he would suggest the player consider supporting the Legion:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	As I said, there are other roads. The Legion's one.	0015c34b

If asked about slavery in the Legion:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	There was slavery in the East long before Caesar showed up. And bear's proven you shouldn't claim an area as yours if you can't keep its people.	001617da

Some dialogue where he talks about the Legion:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Not by history's count. 86 tribes of the East once shared the land. Once thought that's the way it was. Then Caesar came, sixed them all.	001617e0
Ulysses	The Mojave was peaceful for a time. Or at least at peace with itself. Then the bear came lumbering out the West, left bloody tracks all over it.	001617e0
Ulysses	Even the old world flag - America - even that was born from land changing hands, breaking from the old.	001617e0

This seems to be a continuation of that sequence:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	There's going to be more blood spilt in the Mojave before the sun falls on the Colorado. The dam's going to run red with it.	001617e3
Ulysses	If your actions tell me you're Colorado bound, we'll talk again.	001617e3

New California Republic

Here he offers some thoughts on the NCR also, as well as why he does not support them:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	You've seen their flag, a bear with two heads. Symbol's an old world one. Had one head then, better off for it.	0015faa8
Ulysses	Their flag's their spirit. They're split like any two-headed animal trying to go in two different directions, ending up nowhere.	0015faa8
Ulysses	In the Mojave that will only get you sand between your fingers, or over your grave.	0015faa8

Some more dialogue for his thoughts on the NCR:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Player
Ulysses	Old world history about paving and intentions should have taught the republic a thing or two if they listened.	0015faad
Ulysses	They have an idea of trying to do what's right, never quite getting there. Maybe you've seen it - Nipton, elsewhere.	0015faad
Player
Ulysses	They've come far and fast. Out here that can leave you weak and dead. They're not settling the Mojave, they're bleeding across it.	0015c114

Some thoughts on where he believes the NCR weakness lies:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Bear's too busy carving up the Mojave with knives - roads, borders and how things should be - to see how it is.	0015faa5
Ulysses	They're stretched thin, can't protect their frontlines, their towns. Think paper's power. Radio means control. And all it takes…	0015faa5
Ulysses	All it takes is a handful of men willing to kill to put Nipton to death. And Nipton was under the shadow of the bear. Not anymore.	0015faa5

He explains more here, saying he believes the NCR is unintentionally making things worse:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Trying doesn't hold much weight with me. Legion doesn't try to kill people, they do it. The bear kill people trying to protect them.	0015fa9b

This seems to be in response to being asked about how he refers to the NCR:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	California Republic. Two-headed bear. East is the bull, Legion. Don't care much for names sometimes. Flag and the people usually tell you more.	0015ec93
Ulysses	Nipton was proof. Doesn't matter now.	0015ec93

New Vegas

With Vegas being a third option for the player to ally with, Ulysses would comment on this choice also. He believes Mr. House is also repeating history, similar to the NCR and Caesar's Legion:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Player
Ulysses	That's the wrong word. Theatre - that's better. The families, the bear, are all on a stage.	0015faae
Player
Ulysses	House. He's the one watching. The why? You'd know better than I would.	0015faaf
Ulysses	Maybe it's because he likes surrounding himself with things that run a certain way. Like those robots of his, the girls, and that one Vic.	0015faaf
Ulysses	He can't let go, but he puts a smile on and takes a shovel to history's graves. Props up the dead, then puts words in their mouths.	0015faaf
Ulysses	Not a world I want to be part of. Going through motions until we're all smiling faces on some robot screen.	0015faaf

There is another version of this dialogue present also. It seems this version would be used if the player had not met Mr. House yet:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Player
Ulysses	That's the wrong word. Theatre - that's better. The families, the bear, are all on a stage.	0015faae
Player
Ulysses	The reason is to entertain someone. Not sure who the audience is.	0015fab0
Ulysses	Whoever it is, their robots wait in the wings. If someone tries to leave, ruin the show, they're done.	0015fab0
Ulysses	Someone's got old world blues, and they've got it bad. They may not even still be alive, their robots just going through the motions.	0015fab0

Another version of this dialogue, that seems more specific to House and mentions Benny also:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	My guess is old world blues. He can't let go.	0015faa0
Ulysses	But he puts a smile on it and takes a shovel to history's graves. Props up the dead, then puts words in their mouths.	0015faa0
Ulysses	Not a world I want to be part of, neither should you. Worried he's making you dance like Benny, and we know how that ends.	0015faa0

Here he states he does not believe Vegas can stand against the Legion:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	19 tribes could not do it. All the lights in Vegas cannot.	0015c56c
Ulysses	His strength lies in his title, and it is his weakness. He will not fight a losing battle and destroy what he represents.	0015c56c

Some more dialogue on the nature of New Vegas:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Vegas is old world, filled with old world ghosts. And ghosts need the living to do their work.	0015fa9f
Ulysses	That's why the families are there, why the bear stumbles there to lose itself. It's a dance, I don't know its purpose.	0015fa9f

Some thoughts on the Three Families of Vegas:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Families of Vegas were once tribes. Got drunk under Vegas lights. The spirit bled out of them. Old World history, under a different flag.	0015fa97
Ulysses	Whatever traditions or rituals they had most likely squeezed out of them by now. Turned into something else.	0015fa97
Ulysses	And if not, then I'm afraid what's going to happen when they come creeping back.	0015fa97

A few more thoughts on Vegas:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Vegas has old world power. It's more light than strength. Needs hands to guide it.	001617ff

A line for commenting on House specifically:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	You've spoken with the ghost of Vegas, something no one has done. He'd see you, if only to see where you stand.	0015c358

Player Alignment#

Here Ulysses comments on the player's allegiance. Ulysses makes repeated mention here of how the player's words don't match their actions. This suggests that in order to win him over, the player would need to act in their factions best interests.

Caesar's Legion

Here Ulysses acknowledges that the player is actively working with the Legion:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Bull doesn’t turn. Moves straight and moves fast. Stay on the road you're on now, then you're charging ahead with the Legion.	00161858

Here Ulysses chastises the player for claiming to be Legion but not backing it up with their actions:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	If that's your intention, your feet aren't listening. You're walking in the other direction, trailing fire and blood.	0016186d
Ulysses	If you mean to march East, then you need to wake up and turn around. You don't, then your only destination is a cross.	0016186d

A more severe version, where Ulysses notes that the player's actions actively hurt the Legion:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Then you'd better start focusing ahead. What I hear and what I see don't match.	0016186e
Ulysses	Right now, there's two heads on your shoulder. By the flag's count that means you're more bear than bull.	0016186e

Here he talks about the Legion potentially taking the player back:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	You've done a lot for the bear, lengthened its shadow. Caesar will forgive the offense. Just prove you're worth the forgiveness.	0016320a

This seems to be if the player claimed to be working for one faction, but was behaving in a way that served the Legion:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Your feet aren't hitting ground, like you're marching East right to the Legion.	00161852

A similar line:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Sounds like you're charging ahead, just like the Legion, then. Bloodying your horns without looking left or right.	00161854

New California Republic

Here he comments on how the player's actions serve the NCR:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Bear's walking with you, and it's leaving a trail	00161851

Here he acknowledges the player is actively serving the NCR. It is not known yet however what it is that he claims the Courier made happen:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	You look like you've had better experience than most. You're among the few.	0015c11b
Ulysses	But based on what I can tell, you made that happen. Wasn't NCR's doing.	0015c11b

Another line where he acknowledges the player having caused something to happen, though he may not be referring to a specific event, but a more general change:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	But based on what I can tell, you made that happen. It wasn't NCR's doing.	0015c14e

Another pair of lines for acknowledging the player has had experience with the NCR:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	NCR's left a mark on you. It's not hard to see.	0015c11d
Ulysses	That's what its knives do to you, and why people in its shadow answer with knives of their own.	0015c11d

Ulysses acknowledges here the player hasn't had much interaction with the NCR:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	You may not have crossed paths with NCR as much as some. My view is hindsight. What they leave behind, the tracks and the fires.	0015c11c
Ulysses	Look around the Mojave, see the bear's claw marks for yourselves. They're everywhere once you know to look for them.	0015c11c

Ulysses would also comment if the player had a mixed reputation with them:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	You look like you've had split deals with NCR. Good luck with that.	0015c11e
Ulysses	Split intentions are a language they understand. Division bleeds from the two-headed bear on their flag into their people, and it is their weakness.	0015c11e

This is for Ulysses acknowledging that the player is behaving in a way that actively harms the NCR:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Still, your actions in the Mojave haven't served the bear, may even have quickened its end. There's mercy in killing a sick animal.	0015c406

Here he reacts to the Courier telling him that they intend on serving the NCR, responding that there's no way they'd take them back. This may have played if "Don't Tread On The Bear" was failed:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	If that's your intention, your hands aren't listening. What you say and what you've done. Two don't meet in the middle.	0015c152
Ulysses	If your head doesn't know where it's going, your hands do. Too much NCR hell on them to make the bear take you back.	0015c152

Some more lines for Ulysses to acknowledge is actively serving the NCR through their actions:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Player
Ulysses	Stay on the road you're on now, then you're walking in the bear's shadow.	00161857
Player
Ulysses	Right now you're walking in the bear's shadow. Can't see the flag on your back.	00161871

Vegas

Some dialogue where Ulysses tells the player their actions serve the NCR, not the faction they claim to serve. He has a similar response for a Legion scenario, whereas this one does not specify a faction, it may have been intended for the Mr. House or independent routes:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Then you better start backing it. What I hear and what I see don't match.	0015c153
Ulysses	Right now there's two heads on your shoulder, and that means you and the bear are sharing a grave.	0015c153

Here he acknowledges the player is actively serving Vegas through their actions:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	On the road you're on now, that road leads back to the lights of Vegas and all its ghosts.	00161856

Here Ulysses warns the player about the dangers of Vegas:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Player
Ulysses	As long as it suits him, I wouldn't turn your back on him. Though that's hard to do in Vegas.	00161ec8
Ulysses	Follow Vegas too far, and the two-headed bear's going to have a third head to fight with in the Mojave. Just means a quicker victory for the Legion.	00161ec8
Player
Ulysses	Don't let the lights of Vegas blind you. There's sickness past the glow.	00161ec9

Independent

This seems to be for a scenario where the Courier claimed to be working towards independence, but had served the NCR with their actions:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	History will see those two roads as one. You can say you're acting on your own, but the bear gains from it.	0015c347

A similar line:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	And where does the bear's shadow end, and yours begin?	0015c14f

Here Ulysses may be acknowledging the player is working towards their own ends:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	I'm sharing wisdom, not blood. I'm not blind, I can see you're carving your own road. Just want to make sure it's not to a second grave.	00163207

Neutral

Some comments on the player's alignment that don't mention any one faction in particular. The first is a warning for if the Courier considered switching sides:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	You say that, history will tell it different. Try to break away, that's still a side.	0015c11a

Here Ulysses makes it known that he does not support the player's current choices:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Politics of dead men will become history soon enough. You're making tracks enough for trouble to follow.	0015c14c

Here he reminds the player that there are other options available to them as well:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	If you're bound for Hoover Dam, there are other roads.	00161870

A reminder that the player's words must match their actions:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	History won't care. It's the tracks you leave behind that it's going to follow.	0015c14d

Another reminder:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Still, anything you do now will leave more of a mark than any words we trade. What lies ahead, we'll see.	0015c155

An acknowledgement that the player is actively supporting their choice of faction. Some words here are difficult to hear:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Sounds like you believe it. Or if you're [CHECK] At least you know the flag you're standing under.	00161855

Early Game - Case For The Legion#

At some point before the reveal Ulysses would comment on the player's choice of faction. Here he suggests the player may be better off supporting Caesar's Legion in the upcoming war. This would happen sometime after leaving Nipton with him but before the reveal.

This seems to be the prompt that would start the conversation. There is a version that mentions the NCR, and another that is neutral:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Road to Hoover Dam grows shorter by the day. The bear won't survive what comes.	0015c2f1
Ulysses	The road to Hoover Dam grows shorter every day. After that your choice won't matter. What side of the Colorado you're on won't matter either.	0015c2e1

It seems this prompt was intended for if an NCR aligned player pressed Ulysses on this:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	It's clear in your actions, whether you meant it or not, the bear is riding your shoulders. At least one of its heads.	0015c2ed
Ulysses	Chances are, both the bear and the bull will want to meet you. See which flag you're behind, or if it's none at all.	0015c2ed

If asked if he was talking about supporting the Legion, Ulysees has two responses. It seems this was dependent on whether the player had actually visited Vegas or not:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Player
Ulysses	Never said a word about the Legion. Just not one for sitting in NCR's shadow. Different sides of the coin.	0015c1a0
Ulysses	Legion's got an old world spirit riding it, except its flag's got one head, and knows what direction it's going in.	0015c1a0
Player
Ulysses	The Legion might listen to you, especially one who knows the Vegas streets like you do.	0015c2f0
Ulysses	If you're going to Hoover Dam, I'd make the camp on the East side of the river. Backing the bear is just going to earn you a grave by its side.	0015c2f0

This seems to be in response to the player asking about supporting the NCR:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Speak to any head of the bear, see what happens. They'll keep talking as the Legion burns the West.	0015c2e7

The player could also ask about considering Vegas as a possible third option:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Vegas? The Legion will put Vegas to the torch and the families to the blade. They're not as easily blinded as the bear.	0015c1a4
Ulysses	Vegas is old world power, but it's filled with ghosts. Ghosts need the living to do their work. Without that, they will fall.	0015c1a4

He would have a bit more to say about the Legion also, showing that while he believes they are the stronger side, he still has some reservations about it's future:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Player
Ulysses	Legion's a spirit of the old world, like the bear, speaking through Caesar and his legates.	0015c1a1
Player
Ulysses	Legion's a spirit of the old world, like the bear, spoke through Caesar, now his legates.	0015c1a2
Player
Ulysses	Still, don't think the Legion knows what coming West means anymore than the bear knew what coming East meant.	0015c1a3

If the player continued to defend the NCR, he would have said this:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Player
Ulysses	One woman can't keep Legion knives from the bear's throat.	0015c2f2
Ulysses	One man can't keep Legion knives from the bear's throat.	0015c2f3
Player
Ulysses	The more you hold up its flag, the longer the struggle. But the end's going to be the same. The bear should have died long ago. Let it.	0015c2f4

This seems to be for if the player claimed to support the NCR, but hadn't backed it up through their actions:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Player
Ulysses	You may have come from the West, but you aren't holding the bear's flag.	0015c2e8
Player
Ulysses	You may be from the West, but don't see much loyalty to the bear in what you've done so far.	0015c2ee

If the player claimed to support another faction but hadn't backed it up:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Not sure you believe your own words, if your actions are any proof.	0015c2ef

But if the player had backed it up, he would say this:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Then it's good your actions have already spoken for you.	0015c2e2

Mid Game - Reveal#

At some point during the player's travels with Ulysses, he would reveal that he was actually a Legion scout, posing as a traveler. This would open up new dialogue branches with Ulysses, where he could elaborate on the beginning of the conflict between the NCR and Legion, as well as his own backstory.

Confession

Here Ulysses would begin the conversation with the player. It is likely this would be triggered by reaching a certain point in the story, similar to Arcade's quest.

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	We've traveled together for some time. I hoped the road would take us more West than East, but hopes and roads don't always meet in the middle.	001602d7
Ulysses	I've never lied to you. I've not told you everything, though. And now's the time.	001602d7

Here he confides in the player that he is a Legion scout:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	I wear the old world on my back, but the bull's shadow with me. I'm a scout for the Legion. Have been for many, many years.	001602dc
Ulysses	Not long after the Legion took my tribe, that became my place. I walked the West as Caesar's eyes.	001602dc
Ulysses	Until the day I came across Hoover Dam, and the flag of the bear flying over it.	001602dc
Ulysses	And without realising what that meant, I brought word of it to Caesar. The Legion had been so focused on the East, they never looked to the sunset.	001602dc

If asked why he was telling this to the player:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	I'm telling you because the road you walk is growing shorter, and Lanius is at the end waiting.	001602e2
Ulysses	He'll kill you, and all you stand for on Hoover Dam, unless you are Legion.	001602e2

If asked if he was spying for the Legion:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Spy? I watch. Scout's the calling. Eye of Caesar, all that.	001631bb

It seems the player could just part ways with him also:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	I prefer we part in peace. I respect your path, even if I don't believe it.	001602e3

It seems this dialogue would be prompted by the player asking if he was truly aligned with the Legion.

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Yes, won't lie. If that troubles you, we can end this. I'm more watching than reporting nowadays. Been years since I passed along a report.	0016333b
Ulysses	I believe in the bull's victory at Hoover Dam, even if I don't believe it will last after that.	0016333b

Generic question line, seemingly for this sequence:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	If it's only a few I'd be surprised. Ask.	00161f63

Post Tribal Life

Here Ulysses talks about life in the Legion compared to tribal life:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Weeks went by. They hired us on as scouts. During this time, asked how we stored history, its importance.	001631c5
Ulysses	We brought a lot of misery to other tribes while helping Vulpes. Broke them all, one by one. Thought our flag was riding high.	001631c5
Ulysses	During that whole time I got to see how the Legion worked. Got to see the history of it, short and brutal.	001631c5

More dialogue about life in the Legion:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	After the bull comes you learn, and you learn quick. You get your perspective. Weapons training, marching, getting ready for war.	001631c0
Ulysses	Run you through that, soon enough you'll start surrounding tribal camps, too. You end up on the other side.	001631c0
Ulysses	You'll hold the machetes as they break idols, rocks, putting rite and passage to the flame's way.	001631c0
Ulysses	And being on the other end, you see what you used to be. It can make you sick. Sometimes they fight, or beg, or offer tribute to spare them.	001631c0

When asked how long he had been serving the Legion:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Long enough, either you're side by side with the soldiers, or you're out finding them a place to march.	001385bd
Ulysses	I was in the latter position, which isn't a bad place to be if you like walking and seeing the land before it gets slashed and burned.	001385bd
Ulysses	I've got a permanent place being one of Caesar's eyes though. Not sure if it's a reward or not.	001385bd

Here Ulysses talks about how the Legion will first destroy symbols that are sacred to a tribe:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Tribe worships anything living, they kill it, or eat it in front of you.	001631b1
Ulysses	Worship a rock shaped like man or beast, they'll make you break it with hammers until it's gravel.	001631b1
Ulysses	All those tribes we broke, they became markers along I-40. So did we in the end. We were making our own history. Before us lining an old world road.	001631b1

Some more dialogue about the feeling of purpose that comes with being a Legionary:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	It's like you're tied to something bigger. Like you've got the giants of the old world walking behind you, and all you have to do is speak softly.	001631b2
Ulysses	And when you speak, the flag's right behind you, with the weight of Caesar. And all his troops ready to fall on your command.	001631b2
Ulysses	Your mind's not in the tribal camp anymore, it's surrounding it like it was meant to be.	001631b2

Assimilating The Tribes

He provides some background on the Hang Dog tribe here:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Hell, you know the Hang Dogs were willing to give up their hounds? Their dogs, they were like religion. Like their children, more.	001631b3
Ulysses	As if Caesar thought men and dogs were any different. As if a tribe's children were any different than dogs to train.	001631b3
Ulysses	And some tribes, they did offer up their kids. They were willing to give up their history, and their future, to buy a little more time in the now.	001631b3
Ulysses	What kind of people do that? What kind of history you have to have to give up everything for a memory that isn't ever going to leave?	001631b3

More detail on how exactly the Legion erases a tribe's history:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	It's efficient, like prying a bullet out of a wound. Take the men, kids, start trading them. Take the women. Show them their place in Legion. Quick.	001631b5
Ulysses	Snap the family like a dried twig. Don't let the two halves see the other. Quick now, move too slow, start crying, fall behind, Mojave will feast on you.	001631b5
Ulysses	Then they burn the past so there's nothing to go back to.	001631b5

The player seems to ask Ulysses if he regrets something here, though it's not clear what it is that's being asked about.

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Regret it? Regret all the years of my life wasted thinking that circle of tribes was the world. Their history going nowhere.	001631c9
Ulysses	The Legion levelled all that out, and their history went straight back like a vein into the old world.	001631c9
Ulysses	It gave them more strength than I'd ever thought possible. Gave me more strength to tap into it. Serve beneath that flag.	001631c9

Becoming A Scout

In this dialogue Ulysses explains how exactly he was chosen to be a scout in the Legion:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	My commanders knew that I could fend for myself. Could play tribal or merchant when I wanted. And I remembered things.	001631bd
Ulysses	Then Vulpes sent for me. Our Lord of arranging miracles for Caesar in other's tears. Quick talk. Turned me to a new way of thinking.	001631bd
Ulysses	He spoke some old world latin at me and asked me to repeat back what I heard, which I did word for word.	001631bd

Vulpes then accepted Ulysses as Legion scout:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	He said being a tribal, that having that history was going to be a strength where I was going.	001631c2
Ulysses	Yes, he was testing me. Testing my memory. Looking for a way to make use of my instincts, my skills, and my history.	001631c2
Ulysses	I didn't question. Vulpes and questions, waste of time.	001631c2

From here, he would describe his mission:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	His answer tells you only what he wants, no more. He's congress like that.	001631ca
Ulysses	Told me I was going West, find more territory, slaves. Render unto Caesar. Probably nothing out there, Caesar had conquered most everything else.	001631ca
Ulysses	But best to be sure. That's what I do.	001631ca

More information on his role:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	When Vulpes and Caesar sent me West, it was clear I was to act tribal, not Legion. Blend in, not suddenly attack anyone who attacked the Legion.	00161f64
Ulysses	I was to watch, and as much as it stings and hurts to watch my brothers suffer, it was better than revealing myself and breaking my vow.	00161f64

It seems there was a follow up here, that possibly changed based on the player's Legion affinity:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Player
Ulysses	Not sure it matters now. It won't matter to history. But you made me question the Legion and I think that's the bigger vow I've broken.	00161f65
Player
Ulysses	If you're with the Legion, then we're family as well.	00161f66

More dialogue on being a scout:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Got trained as much as possible. Couldn't kill the wandering inside me though, or the fact I don't miss much.	001631b4
Ulysses	Me? I'm no soldier. I love walking too much to be standing in line.	001631b4
Ulysses	They tried to break me of that habit by keeping me at the front. Farther and farther until scout was what I was.	001631b4

Finding Hoover Dam

Here Ulysses describes the events that led up to informing Caesar about the Dam:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	At that moment, everything changed. And I didn't see it in time. What it meant to tell Caesar what I'd found.	001631bf
Ulysses	Vulpes made me tell him so he could study Caesar's face when I told him. Gauge his reaction and be sure he was on the right side of any anger.	001631bf

Caesar's reaction to hearing of Hoover Dam:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	I got to see the fire in his eyes when I told him about the size of the thing. The generators, the lights burning at night. That gate to the West.	001631c6
Ulysses	I told him how wondrous it was. All he could hear was war drums. I came so close to dying for describing something that seemed greater than him.	001631c6
Ulysses	He couldn't abide not having it. The fact there was another flag on it just drove him more.	001631c6
Ulysses	The two aren't going to survive each other. That's the end of the world.	001631c6
Ulysses	They're going to fight, and one of them's going to absorb the other. But they aren't going to kill what drives them.	001631c6
Ulysses	They clash, and from all that blood something else is going to get born.	001631c6

This dialogue branch seems to be in response to the player asking him if he regrets revealing the existence of Hoover Dam to Caesar:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	I don't. Needed to happen. Only good can come of it, learned a lot.	001631be
Ulysses	Caesar? Never really been tested. Republic needs to be tested.	001631be
Ulysses	The two of them need to figure out something new, because the world's not big enough for the two of them.	001631be

Ulysses elaborates here on the implications of finding the Dam and its consequences for the wasteland:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Conquering tribes is what Caesar knows, and he knows it too well.	001631cc
Ulysses	It's history he keeps repeating, and the words have dulled to his ears when accomplishments are accounted.	001631cc
Ulysses	Now to face something that has a flag, an idea, and a philosophy as big as his. A bear to match his bull.	001631cc

Some more dialogue relating to this:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	And what my eyes saw the day I saw the dam, sun hitting it just right. Caesar's world had gotten bigger and smaller at the same time.	001631cd
Ulysses	Was blinded by the sight of it, didn't see it for what it was. It's not just a piece of the old world, it was the end of the world.	001631cd

Here the player could ask if he was lying about something:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Watching. I didn't lie. And I didn't know the Legion had moved so far West.	00161f59
Ulysses	Sometimes Caesar's eyes are left to watch for a long time before someone asks what they see. And you better hope you've seen something good.	00161f59
Ulysses	Finding Hoover Dam probably bought me a few years, though it depends how that plays out.	00161f59

Some dialogue that mentions Lanius:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	It was in his eyes and he wasn't letting it go.	001602d9
Ulysses	He's raized up all the East. A force history hasn't seen in a hundred years, all the tribes he's conquered.	001602d9
Ulysses	And Legate Lanius, the monster of the East, is leading them. He's coming here. And when he does, end of the world's coming with him.	001602d9

Here Ulysses remarks that the battle will be a good test for the Legion. It may have been intended for this sequence.

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Caesar, the legates, Vulpes. If they weren't challenged they'd grow soft and die. Their belief, not just words.	00161f61
Ulysses	Whether it's the bear, you, or Vegas, it doesn't matter. They need to be tested. If you're that test, then that serves.	00161f61

Here he says he believes conflict was inevitable regardless of whether he'd found the Dam or not:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	No, he would have found the bear without me. Or some other Caesar would've.	001631c3
Ulysses	It's just that when he was snaring up tribals, their ideas were big enough to take root.	001631c3
Ulysses	Now this two-headed bear, this idea of how people should live is almost as big as he is, and it's just as hungry as you'd expect.	001631c3

A line about making history:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	It's a small thing to make history, I found. You must know it, too. Or something tells me you will.	001631cb

Legion Vs NCR

Here he talks more about the conflict:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	I knew he'd want it. I knew he'd want to know more. I just didn't know how bad, or how big his enemy was.	001631b6
Ulysses	Felt like a tribal again when you see troops with the bear's mark marching toward you, that maybe being Legion isn't enough.	001631b6
Ulysses	Guns, flying vertibirds, rockets, missiles, that shit's like old world god raining down on you.	001631b6

More dialogue on the conflict:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Caesar was hungry. Don't keep an army moving? It'll feed on itself.	001631b7
Ulysses	Me? I think Vulpes knew Caesar's history. He knew what'd happen if Caesar stopped moving and there was nothing to sink his blade into.	001631b7
Ulysses	Lucky for no one, I found the old world wall, and a chapter of history's going to be written there. Might be the last chapter.	001631b7

Even more dialogue on the conflict:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Two ideas have to fight, see which one is stronger. It's what he always wanted. Going to make a lot of misery before the sun sets on the year.	001631b8
Ulysses	You want to know why he marches? Why there's war? Why people are dying? It's because I told him without thinking about the consequences.	001631b8

Here he reflects on the reasons the war started in the first place:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	I hadn't found a piece of old world history. I'd made history. Found a New California Republic, something as big as Caesar.	001631b9
Ulysses	Saw the flag of the bear flying over Hoover Dam. It was another flag, one I'd never seen before.	001631b9
Ulysses	I should have known what it would mean, bringing news of that flag back. Want to know why there's war? It's because men are sent looking for it.	001631b9

Closing Words

Though speculation, this dialogue seems to be a conclusion to Ulysses' reveal. He would urge the player to part ways with either Vegas or the NCR, telling them they had no chance against the Legion:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	We're reaching a crossroads. And what's going to happen at Hoover Dam, there's no turning from it.	001602d2
Ulysses	There never was. As soon as Caesar heard of a tribe as large as the Republic he saw something no Eastern tribe could offer - a challenge.	001602d2
Ulysses	And that slice of the old world - the Dam. He wanted it more than anything. It was in his eyes, and he wasn't letting it go.	001602d2

This seems to continue on from here:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Turn away from this road you're on. Either support the Legion or don't, but leave the bear and Vegas to their deaths.	001602df
Ulysses	The bear has been dying for years. Vegas, it's lights with no substance.	001602df
Ulysses	Both can offer the Mojave nothing. Its people, nothing.	001602df

This dialogue also seems to be a part of this sequence, though not confirmed. Here he reiterates that he will need to see proof in the player's actions if he is to reconsider his standing:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Words won't be enough.	001602d6
Ulysses	I'd need to see it in your actions. As the time approaches, we'll talk more then.	001602d6
Ulysses	Keep your eyes on the East and in the coming days I'll ask again. Turn away from the West, it cannot last.	001602d6

Late Game - Conclusion#

Eventually, Ulysses would have a conversation with the player about the side they will be supporting at the battle of Hoover Dam. There doesn't seem to be a version of this conversation that begins with Ulysses confident about the player's choice of faction, but there do seem to be lines present for a sequence where the player wins Ulysses round. This suggests that it either wasn't implemented yet, or it was a similar situation to Lonesome Road where Ulysses begins in a state of indecision and the player has to persuade him to join them.

Doubts

This dialogue may be an opening for this sequence:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	I've made my peace with watching history, not dying for it. If you're Colorado bound, you'll go alone.	00163331

This dialogue is specific to the Legion path:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Player
Ulysses	The flag it follows is war, and it won't turn with no blood on its horns. It won't survive. It has no future.	00163333
Player
Ulysses	But the bear still lives. Its back's against Hoover Dam and it's desperate. An old world symbol isn't easy to kill.	00163317

This dialogue is specific to the NCR route:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Player
Ulysses	Do you think defeating the bull breathes life back into the bear's corpse? And should it? There's no future in its shadow.	00163334
Player
Ulysses	But the Legion hasn't shown its full strength. When the Legate Lanius comes, all the East comes with him.	00163316
Ulysses	You can't defeat him. He is a myth to rival the old world.	00163316

This dialogue is specific to the House ending:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Player
Ulysses	All the lights in Vegas can't withstand the Legion. Even if it did, there's no future in it.	00163335
Player
Ulysses	But the bear still lives. And what it can't defeat in battle it will use tricks against it. And the Legion…	00163318
Ulysses	When then Legate Lanius comes, all the East comes with him.	00163318

And this dialogue is for an independent ending:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Player
Ulysses	Vegas, whether for you or someone else, it's dead. It's an old world symbol that stands for nothing.	00163332
Ulysses	What you see in that place, it has blinded you, not me. That place has no future. Its lights and walls can't stand against the Legion.	00163332
Player
Ulysses	But the bear still lives. And what it can't defeat in battle it will use tricks against it. And the Legion…	00163318
Ulysses	When the Legate Lanius comes, all the East comes with him.	00163318

Persuasion

These lines seem to be part of a dialogue branch where the player would persuade Ulysses their choice of faction was the correct one. This section was either not fully implemented, or heavily reliant on player prompts, which makes it difficult to understand how this dialogue exchange might have unfolded.

Some generic lines for questioning Ulysses:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Player
Ulysses	What? What did you say?	00163330
Player
Ulysses	What did you say to me? If you mean Hoover Dam, that-	0016332e
Player
Ulysses	That was different. It wasn't my intention to do that. It wasn't... this. What comes, it's more than any one person can change.	0016330b

If the player had not demonstrated sufficient loyalty to their faction through their actions, Ulysses would say the following:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Player
Ulysses	I've watched you. The future you promise has none of the bull's strength, the Legion's heart behind it.	0016331e
Player
Ulysses	I've watched you. Your course is without conviction, without understanding who you're leading to death.	0016331f

These two lines are repeated four times each in the files, suggesting they were corresponding negative/positive prompts for some sort of check with Ulysses:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Player
Ulysses	Yes. That is why I cannot follow you any longer.	0016330a
Player
Ulysses	Aye. Can't argue that.	0016330d

The first prompt is repeated three times, while the second is repeated only twice; making it difficult to determine if they were part of the same dialogue check or not:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Player
Ulysses	Then you'll carry that belief alone.	0016332c
Player
Ulysses	You truly believe you can make one nation of the West and the East? One that will last?	0016332a

This seems to be the final check to determine whether Ulysses will follow the player or not:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Player
Ulysses	It's not every day I get to see history made. I'll join you at Hoover Dam, whatever comes.	00163319
Player
Ulysses	Whatever history's made of this, it'll be an accident, just as it was when my eyes saw Hoover Dam.	00163320

These lines also seem to be for the persuasion sequence, but it's not clear where they would fit:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Player
Ulysses	If I did, I'd be lying to both of us.	00163315
Player
Ulysses	No. The history that comes, it's more than any one person can change.	00163336
Player
Ulysses	That was different. It wasn't my intention to do that. It wasn't... this. What comes, it's more than any one person can change.	0016330b

Departure

These lines are for Ulysses departing from the player's company. It is not yet known under what circumstances these lines would play; whether it was a bad ending to his companion quest or a more general departure in response to misconduct by the player.

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Try and keep me here and you'll have to shed blood to make it happen. Let's leave with peace between us.	0015c3c3

The player could opt to fight Ulysses rather than let him depart peacefully:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Then let's end this.	0015c3c9

Ulysses would not simply return to the hill where he was first encountered, he would depart from the Mojave completely:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Not sure yet. The hill with two flags doesn't hold me. Think I was only waiting for you, just didn't know it then.	0015c3c4
Ulysses	If you return there you'll only see the Mojave and Nipton's grave. I'll have moved on.	0015c3c4

This line is likely in response to the player asking if Ulysses would betray them.

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Only when it matters to history, not before. They'll hear no secrets from me, even if I hang on a Legion cross.	0015c3c5

Ulysses would return any items given to him by the player:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Any gifts you've given, burdens I've shared, I 'll return. Don't need them and can do without the weight.	0015c3cc

More lines for his departure:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Player
Ulysses	Then we're now on two roads. I'll remember you, what you've done. Even if others forget. I owe it to history, and I owe it to you.	0015c3cb
Player
Ulysses	We'll not see each other again. The Mojave awaits.	0015c3e0
Player
Ulysses	Follow the bear's flag, see what happens. As your muscles rot from their talk, only a Legion cross will support you in the end.	0015c3e1

Success

This dialogue is for if the player had successfully convinced Ulysses that their faction was the right one to support:

This line is for a Legion ending:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	What I do - it's not for the bull. It's for you. It's future.	0016331b

This line is for an NCR ending:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	What I do - it's not for the bear, the Republic. It's for you.	0016331a

This line is for a House aligned Vegas ending:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	What I do - it's not for Vegas. It's for you.	0016331c

This line seems to be for an independent ending.

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Finally gave me some place to set my flag. And I'm tired of wandering when we've got a nation to make right here.	0016331d

Additional dialogue from this sequence:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Player
Ulysses	The Mojave, and Hoover Dam, await.	0015c3da
Player
Ulysses	Winning doesn't matter. Death didn't stop you once. Even if you die, history takes the long view. You may win anyway.	0015c3db
Player
Ulysses	Together, then.	0015c3dd
Player
Ulysses	Forget me, history is with you. Even if we die at Hoover Dam, history takes the long view. We may win anyway.	0015c3de

Backstory#

Role#

Here Ulysses talks about how he sees himself as a historian now. It's not clear where this would've played, but he seems to be well acquainted with the player at this point:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Someone has to remember what happens. I don't forget much.	001617fe
Ulysses	Used to think I was all for watching and listening. But after meeting you, looks like it depends on who is asking the questions.	001617fe
Ulysses	Like to see things with my own eyes. Make the maps, not read them. So I walk, watch, listen. History's here now. Don't want to miss it.	001617fe

Another line related to watching history:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Player
Ulysses	I hope you do. Made my peace with watching history, not dying for it. Dam's drawn too many to it already. It's more an idea than a place.	0016186f

Old World Flag#

These dialogue responses seem to be prompted by the player asking about the flag on his jacket:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	The old world stretches farther back then we'll ever know. So much history was lost.	0015c4c2
Ulysses	There's a reason those societies died. And if the reason's lost, won't be long before it's found again.	0015c4c2
Ulysses	So when symbols out of history rise up and people gather round them again, all I see is the same road the old world walked, circling back on itself.	0015c4c2

This would lead to Ulysses' providing more background on the conflict between the NCR and Legion:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Player
Ulysses	This? It's an old world symbol, a reminder.	0015c4c4
Player
Ulysses	A reminder the old world's still around. Always at our backs, even here in the Mojave.	0015c4c6
Ulysses	Old world symbols still have power. The people worshipping them may fall. If the symbol isn't burned away though, spirits come back.	0015c4c6
Ulysses	The two-headed bear of the republic? It's a symbol of the old world, the Legion flag the same. Two spirits fighting over the Mojave's bones.	0015c4c6

Here he elaborates on why he wears the Old World Flag instead of NCR or Legion colors:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Whether it's bull or bear, those colors aren't something you wear in the Mojave, especially West of the Colorado.	0015c4c7
Ulysses	Legion colors only scare people. And the Republic colors - even in the Republic - the NCR flag frightens them, or makes them filled with hate.	0015c4c7
Ulysses	No, if you want to travel in peace, choose something both sides can agree on, or ignore. Just make sure it's something you believe, like I do.	0015c4c7

This dialogue seems to be for if the player wasn't really familiar with America:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Hmm, guess it doesn't. It's difficult to explain. But that isn't an answer.	0015f419
Ulysses	This flag was a nation that lies beneath our feet now. Buried, gone. They ruled all the Mojave and more. West, to the sea. East, to the sea.	0015f419
Ulysses	Maybe farther than that, if the books are to be believed. Yet that one tribe threw it away, didn't even know what they had.	0015f419

But if the player was familiar with America, he would say this:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	You know it? Good. Not many people do, not in the Mojave anyway. America used to stretch all beneath us. Gone now. Except for the flag.	0015c4d2
Ulysses	Don't know if that's good or bad. America fought in a lot of wars, before the last one. Even a war against itself, if history's to be believed.	0015c4d2
Ulysses	Reminds me of NCR and Legion. Tearing at each other. East and West walking down that same road America once did.	0015c4d2

Name#

Ulysses could be asked about his name also. There are multiple different versions of this, worth noting is that in the April build this is actually tied to an intelligence check, so the response seen may depend on the player's intelligence level.

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Player
Ulysses	It's not my given name. I took it from history, found it in a book. It's an old world name.	0015c527
Ulysses	Ulysses lived a long time ago, long before the old world set fire to itself. He made a mark without being myth.	0015c527
Ulysses	Had to fight during a time when his world had two flags and he had to make them one.	0015c527
Player
Ulysses	Ulysses walked a hard road. He was a general like Caesar and Oliver. He was brahmin stubborn and it gave him strength on the battlefield.	0015c52a
Ulysses	He led his side to victory - that's when he lost. When the fighting was done, the sickness took hold.	0015c52a
Ulysses	The flag he'd kept, fought for, he turned on it. He tried to uphold what it meant, but it wasn't in him.	0015c52a
Player
Ulysses	He wasn't made for the flag he followed. He wasn't made for peace. That's the lesson.	0015f428
Ulysses	If you follow a symbol to the end, ask yourself what that means. More important, ask what happens after the end.	0015f428
Ulysses	Because history is going to keep going, and carry you and your symbol along with it, as sure as the old world on my back.	0015f428

Combat#

The player could ask Ulysses about his skills in combat, as well as why he uses an Eagle Flag Pole specifically:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	A knife or a machete sends a signal when walking into a town. A walking staff's something people can brush off as harmless.	001631f6
Ulysses	And I admit it, preferred fighting with a flagpole. Liked the eagle on the end. Felt right to me.	001631f6

Some dialogue covering his general uses in combat:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Don't like to fight if I can avoid it. If I can't, then I prefer settling things honestly, up close. Figure the enemy deserves the respect.	0015ef78
Ulysses	Good with a staff, but knives, spears, hatchets, all those things speak more to me than killing at a distance.	0015ef78
Ulysses	Fair with rifles and guns, but that's more the bear's calling than mine. Never want to rely on ammo if it came to a fight.	0015ef78

Crafting#

Ulysses could also help the player craft items, as well teach them recipes:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	I survive. Don't need to carry much if you know the land.	0015ef8e
Ulysses	Found ways of drawing life out of the desert that don't require a blaze. So if you require powders or venoms, tell me, we'll see what we can make.	0015ef8e

Lines for opening up the crafting menu:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	All right, let's see what you have.	0015ef8f
Ulysses	Let's see what gifts the Mojave has given us.	0015ef92
Ulysses	Let's make some new from the old.

Ulysses could teach the player how to make a Snakebite Tourniquet. In the Lonesome Road DLC in the final game, Ulysses reuses this dialogue, although in the final game he also adds "Tunneler bite can be just as bad." after the first line.

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Antivenom's helpful around the Mojave with the Bark Scorpions. Even one sting can kill you.	00160c95
Ulysses	My tribe, Twisted Hairs, had a better way. Snakebite Tourniquet - cuts off the venom, no need to scavenge glands and blood. Or drink that mess.	00160c95

He would also teach them how make the item Bitter Drink. Like the ones for the Snakebite Tourniquet, these were reused for use in the DLC. The line "Land's full of gifts." is omitted, however:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Land's full of gifts. Mojave's got ways of healing most ills - if not, some tribe's usually found a way you didn't expect.	00160c96
Ulysses	Like Healing Powders. Tribes back West only use Xander and Broc flower. There's a way the Twin Mothers used to brew it, though.	00160c96
Ulysses	Called it Bitter Drink, mixed up the Xander and Broc in a bottle, added some kick to it so your head doesn't get all clouded.	00160c96

Learning these seems to be dependent on the player's survival skill:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	None of any use right now. Get used to living off the land, might have some more for you later.	00160c97

Twisted Hairs#

If asked, Ulysses would comment on his tribe as well, the Twisted Hairs. There are two versions of this backstory; one for before Ulysses reveals his identity as a Legion scout, and another for after.

Pre Reveal

This is the version for before the reveal, where Ulysses conceals his involvement with the Legion:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Once. Tribe's lost to history, so came West rather than march with the Legion.	0015c56d
Ulysses	Other tribes - including mine - either fell to Caesar, went West like me, or died with "no" on their lips.	0015c56d
Ulysses	The Twin Mothers, the Hang Dogs. Just names now along with the Twisted Hairs. I might be the last. One man's not a tribe.	0015c56d

Another line about the Twin Mothers that may have been part of this sequence:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	History cures a wound. Leaves the bitterness that caused it. The Twin Mothers were always about lessons. Caesar taught them the last one, though.	00160c91

Here he provides more information on how the tribe was eliminated, as well as a false explanation for why he is in the Mojave:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	History happened. Caesar was stronger, more well organized. The tribes were just that, small, isolated, ignorant.	0015c532
Ulysses	The legion came. My tribe joined the 19. I traveled West to the Mojave. There is little else to tell.	0015c532

Ulysses tells the player about his tribe's first contact with the Legion:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	History's short. At that point, I'll make it short too. It's history repeated over the East, anywhere Caesar's walked.	001631b0
Ulysses	Like I said, used to be one of the Twisted Hairs, East of the Colorado.	001631b0
Ulysses	Our first contact was with Vulpes the wolf. Treated us with respect. Asked to trade. Asked us for scouting information. Promised us gifts.	001631b0

Additional background on how the Legion deals with local tribes:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Happened the same with almost every tribe.	001631ce
Ulysses	Legion shows up one morning before the sun breaks. Surrounds the entire camp. Even rounds up the hunters out looking for game.	001631ce
Ulysses	Then, they cut the tribe. Cut people, and their laws and beliefs, like tendons. Let them lie naked and exposed to die in the sun.	001631ce

These lines were likely in response to the player asking if he ever considered revenge against the Legion for what they did:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Crossed my mind, left as quickly as it came. I don't blame the legion, it's the way the world is.	0015c560
Ulysses	Mojave's no different. Predators come. If they're stronger, you fall, bend knee, or die.	0015c560

This seems to be in response to the player asking why he hadn't joined the Legion with the rest of his tribe:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Never had the chance. Their choice, not mine.	0015ec9a

Here he talks about the name "Twisted Hairs":

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	We had the name Twisted Hairs in many languages of the East. It was how we kept history. Each braid counted a season, a year, a birth. Death.	0015c564
Ulysses	Knots marked events. Mantis swarms, the year the storms roared from the Divide. All our history hung in braids from our tents.	0015c564

When asked about the history of his tribe, he would have the following to say:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Lost? That was history. Happening right in front of us like it always has.	0015f420
Ulysses	The history of the Twisted Hairs wasn't worth keeping. Nothing to learn from if you didn't see that day when it all burned up.	0015f420
Ulysses	It took some of them longer to see it. Some never did.	0015f420

It seems he would use these lines if asked about certain topics pre reveal:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Don't really much want to talk about it. Think I've talked enough. Let's let the road speak for a while.	001631c1
Ulysses	Don't want to talk about it, too much history. Maybe another time.	0016333c

Post Reveal

After a certain trigger was hit, Ulysses would reveal that he did in fact join the Legion with the rest of his tribe. He would reveal some further details, and that the Legion adopted certain traditions from the Twisted Hairs when they assimilated them:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Part of it when the Legion took our tribe, they kept the code in the braids for some of their scouts.	0015f421
Ulysses	Allow them to pass information in the East without saying a word. Just who was passing on the road could tell volumes about what was ahead.	0015f421
Ulysses	Legion doesn't ruin a tribe, not completely. They take pieces from it. Like they did with the Hang Dogs, now our hound masters.	0015f421

More dialogue on the significance of the braids:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Ritual, habit. If I die there is a chance someone will know my past from my corpse, unless I'm scalped.	0015f422
Ulysses	All our history hung in our camp. Rows and rows. All our rituals and past twisted up thick as ropes.	0015f422
Ulysses	The Legion burned those first when they took the tribe. Smell was terrible, like dogs or bighorners thrown on a campfire.	0015f422
Ulysses	Must have been what the Hang Dogs smelled when Caesar came for them and butchered their animals, until they surrendered.	0015f422

More dialogue where he delves specifically into what the braids mean:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	To us. My tribe got herded up, scalped, shawn like big horners, then got to watch the braids burn in the campfire. Sounds stupid, doesn't it?	001631ba
Ulysses	It wasn't then. It was like having years of your life going up in flames. Generations up in smoke.	001631ba
Ulysses	We stored our history in our hair. How we twisted it, and knotted it.	001631ba
Ulysses	Each bead: ten summers. Red bead: your first kill. A twin knot in the hair : when you first fucked a woman. Three knots: when she was with child.	001631ba

Yet more dialogue:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	I saw it as soon as I saw the Legion flag. Our history hung in our tents. Just moments, all knotted up.	0015f426
Ulysses	Caesar's history went to the horizon. The bull on that flag. It was all the East. Now it's coming West. If the bear doesn't know it yet, it will.	0015f426

Here he describes how the Legion prioritized killing the tribe's elders, ensuring their traditions could not be restarted:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	The elders went on the fire next. In case they remembered what happened, tried to record it again.	0015f427
Ulysses	That's Legion. Traditions are put to the blade first. Break the alters, burn the history books. Whatever holds history, destroy it.	0015f427

Caesar's Legion Commentary#

Caesar#

Here, Ulysses reacts to Caesar's death. It is not known yet how killing Caesar would affect Ulysses' companion quest. If killing Caesar did indeed fail the quest, then it is likely these lines were related to Et Tumor, Brute? specifically. They may also be for the cut path where the player would have Caesar killed by his own lieutenants. There are two versions of this:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Caesar would be history's hypocrite if he was angry about what happened. I'm not one for it either.	00160c8f
Ulysses	Seems to me you just proved his philosophy to him. If he'd been stronger then he'd be alive and we wouldn't be talking.	00160c8f

The alternative version:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Done with blame, and Caesar was big on strength making right. Seems to me you proved that philosophy to him.	00160c83
Ulysses	If he was too weak to stop you, too weak to defend himself, then he needed to die with his beliefs.	00160c83

This dialogue however is highly likely to be intended for if the player convinced Ulysses to abandon the Legion:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Unless you do the same for the Legate that comes you'll get no thanks from me. When that monster arrives, he's not going to have a leash.	00160c9a
Ulysses	Caesar could command him. Not now. The bear's going to burn, and burn slow.	00160c9a

Karl#

The player could ask about Karl as well, though it seems Ulysses is not personally acquainted with him:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Heard of him in the East. Surprised they sent him, especially to strike fear into towns on the border.	00160c88
Ulysses	His hands are clumsy. Towns and tribes are known to bite him back. May not have heard of that shame out here, though.	00160c88
Ulysses	Legion should have sent Vulpes. The wolf has better instincts in using fear and terror. Most don't see his work until the act's done.	00160c88

Another line about Karl:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	He's a Legion agent. He's at Red Rock Canyon to convince Papa Khan to join him.	001600d8

Legate Lanius#

Ulysses would offer some advice about Legate Lanius when asked if well. Here he talks about the importance of the Legate for the Legion overall:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Caesar wants Hoover Dam. To take it he will need something as big as the old world itself. Another symbol forged by history.	0015c56f
Ulysses	Lanius is it. He carries all the terrors of the East with him. He's the myth, the weapon Caesar needs.	0015c56f
Ulysses	When he arrives, he'll fall on Hoover Dam like a hammer, break the bear in two.	0015c56f

If he had been convinced to turn on Caesar's Legion, Ulysses would offer the player some advice on how to defeat the Legate without resorting to violence:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Player
Ulysses	You do not need to convince him alone. Draw upon history. That history the bear knows, especially Hanlon.	0015c561
Ulysses	The past of all legates is not filled with victories. Remind Lanius of this. Put his legend at risk, see what happens.	0015c561
Player
Ulysses	Put the idea of loss in him. Convince him the bear will not be the twentieth tribe beneath his heel. It will make him pause like nothing on earth.	0015c566
Ulysses	Lanius and Caesar know the powers of the tribes they conquered. If you meet theirs with 19 tribes of your own	0015c566
Ulysses	They will know the strength in such an alliance. Gather your own myths, have them join you at Hoover Dam. That will make Lanius pause.	0015c566

More dialogue on Lanius:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Lanius the butcher, monster, terror of the East.	0015c569
Ulysses	Not even his slaves have seen his face. Struck them blind so they can't. Wears a mask. Don't even know if it's the same man.	0015c569
Ulysses	He put Colorado to the sword. Broke the Hang Dogs by throwing their hounds upon the flames so they might burn forever in the after life.	0015c569

Vulpes Inculta#

Ulysses has dialogue providing additional backstory on Vulpes, specifically his methods and his role within Caesar's Legion. Here he elaborates on how Vulpes will erase a tribe's history:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Murdering history isn't hard these days. In the old world they had to hide it or change the words. Now it's just men keep the tales.	0015c55f
Ulysses	Vulpes knows this, goes right for the shamans, keepers of the way and their symbols - books, murals - whatever they use to tell history.	0015c55f
Ulysses	Once he's twisted or killed them he's reduced a tribe's past to a single generation. Anything before his gun.	0015c55f

If Vulpes was dead, he would talk about him in the past tense:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	He infiltrated many settlements and tribes in the East. Coyote, Fox, Mongrel, he was all these tricksters and more. Always the wolf, in the end.	00160cbc
Ulysses	He knew how to murder communities, murder their history. Elders, shamans, anyone who kept their rituals. Vulpes went for them first.	00160cbc
Ulysses	He knew what symbols and history meant. Kill a tribe's history, they'll turn to the next symbol. The Legion flag, bull and its horns.	00160cbc

He would use this dialogue if asked about Vulpes before the reveal. This is evident by the fact that he acts as though he is not personally acquainted with Vulpes. The abrupt end to the conversation is likely Ulysses trying to avoid revealing too much about his true role.

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	History of the East I'd agree with you. Legates come like hammers, Vulpes like a knife across the throat.	00160c8d
Ulysses	Less said about him the better. Might hear his name, come for us.	00160c8d

Some general information about Vulpes, and his capabilities.

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Player
Ulysses	Caesar's trained scouts in using terror. Vulpes does it by instinct.	00160c8c
Player
Ulysses	He's Caesar's eye. If the legates are hammers and machetes, Vulpes is the poison blade.	0015c56e
Ulysses	He walks, listens, learns his enemy. Then he kills them, sometimes by killing the strength around them.	0015c56e
Ulysses	He is a murderer. Not just men, tribes, nations. He can kill a people's history in a single night.	0015c56e
Player
Ulysses	He wears a wolf's head like others in Caesar's service. For them it's a token. For Vulpes it's skin.	0015c565
Ulysses	Republic's the bear, Caesar's the bull, and Vulpes - Vulpes is the wolf. Never see him until you are alone, weak, and then his fangs are at your throat.	0015c565
Ulysses	No use in warning you to avoid him. It would be useless. He comes for you, nothing will stop him.	0015c565
Player
Ulysses	He walks freely where none of Caesar's men can walk, even in the lights of Vegas. He may not wear Caesar's colors there, but one day he will.	0015c568

Vulpes' Death

There is a particularly large amount of dialogue responses as well for reacting to Vulpes' death:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	The Wolf is dead. Too late for the tribes of the East, but…	00160cb6
Ulysses	The bear should celebrate what you've done for it. You've killed a legend, a new world myth.	00160cb6

He would have some more to say about this:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Now that he's dead, his history should be shared. Keep him from becoming more a myth, if nothing else.	00160cb5
Ulysses	He was one of Caesar's weapons as much as the Legate Lanius is Caesar's hammer. Vulpes was the Legion's eye, their spy master.	00160cb5

This dialogue seems like it would be used for after Ulysses turns his back on the Legion:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Without him, the Legion's lost one of their greatest tacticians. Brute force will need to be enough for Hoover Dam.	00160cbb
Ulysses	That's Legate Lanius. He's one of the Legion's greatest, Caesar's hammer. Hoover Dam will be his end, though.	00160cbb

If not killed in Ulysses' company, he would have some doubts about whether or not it was Vulpes that died:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	You killed Vulpes? One like him perhaps. Many wear the wolf headdress.	00160cbd

Unknown#

Some lines that have not been sorted yet.

The form IDs for these lines place them somewhere in the conversation about his old world flag. The line chosen may have been influenced by the player's allegiance.

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Why do that when it's always right in front of you. Straight on into the sunset.	0015c4c8
Ulysses	Why do that when it's always behind you. Turn, you'll see it when the sun rises red.	0015c4cc

An NCR related line that is difficult to place:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Even so, the bear would have missed it, even if the evidence was bloody in front of them.	00160c89

Another NCR related line, seemingly about their incompetence:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Hmm, the bear often gets caught in its own traps and rituals even when it knows a certain action would be best.	00160c92

Dialogue regarding an important character possibly dying, one that is acknowledged by both NCR and Legion:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	No, wasn't his time, and it wouldn't have been how he wanted to die.	00160c90
Ulysses	Not how most have wanted him to die either, bear or bull.	00160c90

A line to react to the death of a Legion character seemingly:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Another myth gone to the old world. Won't stop the Legion's advance.	00160c98

This may have been a generic line intended for when the end game began:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	World's shifting around us. Not sure where it's going to stop.	00160c99

Here he seems to react to the destruction of a Legion encampment, making it clear he does not hold grudges for Legionaries who die in battle, no matter how closely acquainted they are:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	If they weren't strong enough, then they deserve it. It isn't going to change things.	00161f5c
Ulysses	If you were Legion I wouldn't share(?) a tear for you.	00161f5c

This may have been intended for the intro, where Ulysses alludes to trouble at Nipton:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Something tells me trouble finds you.	001617eb

A line about Hoover Dam, it's unknown where this would have fit currently:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Would be my thought too, if history was only Hoover Dam.	001617dc

A line about culture, its form ID places it with lines from the reveal conversation:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	And so have I. I have to understand, it's part of the culture.	00161f60

The form ID for this line is placed in between other lines where Ulysses discusses the NCR. It seems Ulysses would ask here if the Courier recognised the NCR's flaws also:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	So you're not blind to it?	0015c113

This line may be related to one of the alignment conversations:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Sounds like you believe it, and unlike others you have the scars to back it.	0015c151

The form ID for this line places it with the introductory conversation at Wolfhorn Ranch:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	No, not interested in the answer.	0015ec8a

The form ID for this line also places it with other Wolfhorn Ranch lines. It may be for the player commenting on something related to the Twisted Hairs:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Legion. History repeats. Same flag some times.	0015ec86

This may also be for the introduction somewhere:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	That's an interesting thought.	0015ec96

Here he tells the player to look beyond the surface, the form IDs for this line place it with other lines from the conversation about the American flag:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	The lesson, not the place. Pay attention to the story behind the symbol, the people behind it.	0015f41a

The form ID for this line places it in the conversation about Benny:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	Sometimes the why of it leaves more scars, especially if it involves family or history. But sometimes not.	0015ef85

The form ID for this line also places it in the conversation about Benny:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	That's on you, then. If I can help, I will.	0015ef7e

The form ID for this line places it with the conversation post Caesar's death:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	I'll let history thank you if it gets that far. Me, I like to sit back and let events sit a while.	00160c9b

A line for Ulysses refusing to accompany the player to The Fort:

Speaker	Dialogue	File
Ulysses	I'm not going with you to the Fort. Not going East of the Colorado, not going to walk among the Legion.	00163208

Two more lines that are a bit too vague to properly place yet:

Speaker	Dialogue	File

Ulysses	Already has. Just haven't realized it yet.	0015fa9d

Ulysses	No, there wasn't. Ask yourself why.	0015faa6

Generic#

Main Quest#

Some unused dialogue for Cass to comment on events that occur in the main game. Text to speech lines are marked "TTS".

To do:
Cass also has a large number of event and location barks to be added.

Speaker	Dialogue	File	Comments
Cass	When you found me in the Mojave Outpost, never once did I think we'd deliver such a royal ass-kicking. And it felt good.	0015d156	-
Cass	So, those robots on The Strip are, what, even more liable to shoot and kill someone? Great.	0015e8d9	Securitrons upgraded.
Cass	Glad you put that RobCo asshole to sleep. Always hated those computers of his.	0015e8da	House dead.
Cass	If you're going to Caesar, no need to invite me. He'll have you for dinner alright.	0015e8db	Invited to meet with Caesar.
Cass	Cannot believe you saved that butcher, should've left a grenade in his skull while you were digging around in there.	0015e8dc	Caesar cured.
Cass	Fuck Caesar, that's what I say. Hope he's burning in hell now with every person he put on a cross.	0015e8dd	Caesar dead.
Cass	Fucking glad you blew that vault, Strip doesn't need any more of those tin cans.	0015e8de	Securitron vault destroyed.
Cass	Kimball better give you a lifetime supply of whiskey, instead of a medal and cheap words.	0015e8df	Kimball saved.
Cass	NCR better be damn thankful for what you've done. But don't run for president, please.	0015e8e4	Kimball saved? (TTS)
Cass	That was probably the highlight of Kimball's presidency.	0015e8e2	Kimball assassinated by the Legion?
Cass	If you're gonna kill someone, don't be on the fence about it. Still...glad you didn't.	0015e8e0	Player failed to assassinate Kimball?
Cass	Well, that's good. You're gonna get your name on that NCR wanted poster after all.	0015e8e1	Player successfully kills Kimball?
Cass	I'm with you, just wanted to tell you that Benny was once in your shoes; and look how that turned out.	0015e8e6	Player met with House (TTS)

Post-Game#

Some lines for Cass intended for use in the post-game. These are temporary lines in text to speech format.

To do:
Audio to follow.

Speaker	Dialogue	File	Comments
Cass	You know, after saving the west, I didn't think it'd feel so...I don't know, normal?	0015d157	NCR victory.
Cass	Guess my whole attitude is different. God himself could've come down and kissed me, and I would've said, what? No ring?	0015d157	NCR victory.
Cass	Life's funny. But that's what I like the Mojave. Got a nice different feel than back west. You take your chances out here, and I like that.	0015d157	NCR victory.
Cass	Have no idea what we've done. At least the roads will be safe under the Legion, and the shadows under the crosses.	0015e8e5	Legion victory.
Cass	So what now? With you, me and your metal men, feel like I've traded the west for nothing.	0015e8e8	House victory.
Cass	Guess the house doesn't win after all. All falls apart in the end. Hope we didn't do all this just to watch Vegas burn.	0015e8e9	Independent victory.

Combat Barks#

Additionally, she has some extra combat barks that are not present in the final.

Audio	Filename	Transcript
	vnpcfollow_armorineffectiv_0015c248_1	This armor’s no good.
	vnpcfollowers_crippled_0015c25b_1	I need a doctor!
	vnpcfollowers_noammo_0015c23f_1	Out of ammo!
	vnpcfollowers_regenerating_0015c240_1	Exhale
	vnpcfollowers_wake_0015c245_1	Stirs then wakes

Location Barks#

Cass was intended to have even more location dialogue than even what was shipped for her. What is revealing for the below is that they are generally for two use cases - either for external locations without a map region (e.g. the 188), or for an internal cell (e.g. the various casinos). The way these were left out and the scripts that make her bark (see the cut VCassTimerRegionBarkScript) were setup suggests they were going to be added to a separate script to handle these cases, but were either forgotten or simply ran out of time to implement.

Some lines with the prefix "ba", which may be for the Basincreek Building.
