    Wasn’t Fawkes a woman? ETA: no, just looked it up. The character was supposed to be male. Wonder why I was thinking that…

      According to some deleted holotapes he was security in Vault 87 before he was turned. He was a guy.

      Which game had the super mutant who called your deary and dressed like a grandma? I know that’s a real memory but I’ll be damned if i remember… I wanna say NV

          the fact that we still remember these characters is such a testament to the writing of NV, it’s straight up the fellowship of the ring to the post-postapocalypse genre

        She is a grandma! Not just dressed up

        I believe her companion story involved choosing whether or not to treat her worsening nightkin psychosis with the consequence that treatment would make her forget her grandkids

          Ah man new vegas really was great. How many companions through how many games were as memorable as NVs? Its been an awfully long time, should replay it.

            New Vegas had a bit of a modding Renaissance, it’s in the absolute golden age of modding. Incredible stuff being done with it.

      Super Mutants lose whatever gender organs or genetics when the FEV turns them into what they are. They can still identify, though.

      There’s one or two female super mutants in New Vegas, so you might be thinking of them.
