• Vlad's nationality is deliberately never explicitly revealed. While he does speak Russian, I only chose it because it feels like it would be the universal second language for most people in that geographical region.
• Locked in Vlad's safe is a holotape containing a U.S. Army Language School self-study course in Russian, the significance of which is again deliberately left ambiguous.
  • One possible interpretation is that Vlad is a fraud, just some Wastelander who adopts an outlandish, larger-than-life persona to differentiate himself from other merchants and drum up business.
  • Another possible interpretation is that ever since his parents died, Vlad has had nobody to speak his mother tongue with, and his only opportunity to hear it aloud is through a pre-recorded language lesson.
• Vlad's unique weapon is named Suchka (Rus. сучка), meaning “little bitch”. The use of the diminutive implies affection rather than insult.

There are a number of global variables that can be changed using either the G.E.C.K., FNVEdit, or console commands, in order to tailor the experience to your personal preferences. If you are using any mods that change the way the economy works, it may be difficult or impossible to acquire the caps necessary to buy a custom gun, in which case you can adjust these variables to make the guns more affordable.
