Smells Like Gun Powder Here.
Starfield‘s starry, dark universe is enormous and can be frightening when alone. That’s why it would be best to have a companion to explore this vast emptiness. Amidst of other companions, she’s one mighty combat-oriented companion.
She was raised in HopeTown, on Polvo, where workers are provided everything they need for a happy life. But that’s a lie. The working conditions are awful for the average person in HopeTown. And the situation was terrible due to Ron Hope’s Fault.
To make matters worse, the whole economy is dependent on him. Although there are no constraints for him to increase wages and improve safety for the workers, he refuses to do so. After all, keeping the workforce poor and plying them with cheap liquor at company stores is an excellent way to keep them around.
Marika’s parents’ wages from HopeTech barely kept the food on the table. As a result, Marika grew up on the edge of poverty like most working-class people in HopeTown.
Moreover, her financial condition showed no improvement as she’s been out of work since leaving the Freestar Rangers. However, her lifelong struggles didn’t break her spirit, as she wanted to do something meaningful with her life than just building starships.
Now, as we learned about Marika’s history, she had to face things the hard way. What must you do to bring Marika onto your team, and what exactly does she surpass in? Let’s dive into the world of Starfield to find out.
