Starfield: Should you tell Hadrian about her dad?

Starfield questlines may start simple, but they get complex as soon as you complete a couple of missions. Today, I am not talking about a mere drama. We are about to discover a conspiracy that may jeopardize the entire galaxy. Surely no one told us this would happen when we signed up for the United Colonies Vanguard, right? So, should you tell Hadrian about her dad in Starfield? Let’s find out.

Should you tell Hadrian about her dad in Starfield?

The UC Vanguard quests will eventually lead you to meet Hadrian, and surprisingly, her supposedly dead father Vae Victis. The truth is that the UC Vanguard keeps him under their umbrella, in secret. If this secret is exposed, then peace between governments could be in danger. However, how could you keep this secret from Hadrian, a woman we met under really strange circumstances involving Terrormorphs? Moreover, given Vae Victis’ connection with these dangerous life-forms and the massacre of Londinion, would you stomach hiding the truth? Well, things are more complicated than that.

• Outcome 1 – Telling Hadrian about her dad: There are multiple times in which you can tell Hadrian about her father. If you end up doing so, the United Colonies Cabinet will kill Vae Victis after Hadrian presents evidence regarding her father.
• Outcome 2 – Not telling Hadrian about her dad: If you decide to keep the secret to the end, then you will be able to undergo a final mission with Vae Victis in the UC Vanguard questline after A Legacy Forged.

While telling the truth could be the most honorable thing to do, if we focus on the outcomes, then lying and not telling Hadrian about her dad is the best choice of the two. Not only will Hadrian not find out you have been lying, but your outcome will impact your companions’ relationships with you. Go ahead and keep the secret and have fun on the last mission of the UC Vanguard questline!
