two more questions:

what's up in the republic of Dave?

and I'd like to start a character who is squatting in Vault 112 is that alright?

Given its fairly remote location I'd leave the Republic of Dave's outcome up to anyone who wished to interact in that area. 

That should be fine. Were you thinking an ex-resident of Tranquility lane or just someone whose's stomping around outside of the simulation?
