Vault 13
Vault 13 Couple
These people were to take over the Vault Dweller's room after the exile from Vault 13. However, in the final game the other dwellers leave the room unoccupied in his honor. Their message file is VALTCUPL.MSG.
{100}{}{You see a citizen of Vault 13.} {101}{}{We didn't think that you were coming back. You have such a nice room, and we were a little crowded with her parents. I hope you don't mind.} {102}{}{Yes, I do mind. Get out of my room!} {103}{}{Nah, I don't care. Enjoy the room.} {104}{}{It would be reassuring to have my own quarters back. Please find somewhere else to live.} {105}{}{Hng.} {106}{}{Look, I don't want to argue with you, but you obviously don't deserve this room anymore. Please leave.} {107}{}{Look, we could really use the space. I hope you will reconsider.} {108}{}{Well, let me think about it for a moment. Hmmm. No. Get out!} {109}{}{Well, ok. You need it more than I do.} {110}{}{Thanks! We really appreciate it. We put your stuff in the trunk.} {111}{}{Well, I don't know. You don't seem to be using it very often, and we sure could use the space.} {112}{}{Fine. Take it.} {113}{}{I need this place to remember my roots. And besides, it's a good place to rest.} {114}{}{Gee, I didn't think you would still care about this place from what I've heard. You have a good day. We'll go back to her mothers' place.} {115}{}{We really like it here.} {116}{}{You should leave. This isn't your place here anymore.}
Shady Sands
Agatha
Agatha is a psychic woman similar to Hakunin in Fallout 2. She is also mentioned in Tandi's dialog file. AGATHA.MSG
{100}{}{You see an aged woman.} {101}{}{You see Agatha.} {102}{}{This woman is wrinkled and gray, yet has a spry step and a bright personality.} {103}{}{You are a bad person. I will have nothing to do with you.} {104}{}{It is a terrible thing when our youth are threatened. The loss of Tandi would be a terrible thing.} {105}{}{Hnng.} {106}{}{Okay.} {107}{}{Why?} {108}{}{What do you mean?} {109}{}{I know you will do your best, dearie. Find Tandi, help her escape those beasts and return her to Aradesh. You will do this community a favor and build good karma as well.} {110}{}{Aradesh loves his daughter very much. It is that love that makes him the man that he is and a pillar of this community. Without that love he would be lost, and Shady Sands would surely follow . . .} {111}{}{I will do my best. Goodbye.} {112}{}{I could use some help.} {113}{}{Hmmm. We'll see.} {114}{}{I feel that she is imprisoned. She was the target of hatred. That hate is very strong to the southeast. I'm sure you will find her there. Good luck.} {115}{}{Thank you.} {116}{}{You have not heard? Tandi is missing. I feel she was kidnapped. Aradesh is most distraught. This is a terrible thing . . .} {117}{}{I hear that you have saved Tandi. That was the right thing to do. Your karma is strong. I have high hopes for your future.} {118}{}{I'm very sorry to hear about Tandi. She was such a bright young woman. She would have done good with her life.} {119}{}{Hello. You must be the stranger everyone is talking about. [Agatha sighs.] How can I help you?} {120}{}{Hngh.} {121}{}{Who are you?} {122}{}{You look very tired. Is there anything wrong?} {123}{}{Why do you look so tired?} {124}{}{Don't talk to me, old woman.} {125}{}{You need more help than I can give you, child. May Dharma be with you.} {126}{}{My name is Agatha. I am the storyteller of Shady Sands. It is my job to keep the history so that we may remember and never forget.} {127}{}{Tell me a story.} {128}{}{Okay, whatever.} {129}{}{It is good not to forget.} {130}{}{I'm sorry, child, I am tired right now. I need my rest. Please come back later.} {131}{}{How very true. [Agatha stares at you for a moment.] It is good for the young to remember, but it is very hard to act within the flow of history. Sometimes, the very course we take is determined by events long ago. May Dharma be with you. I must rest for a little while. Come back again, when I am stronger, and we will speak again.} {132}{}{Thank you for asking. I'm just old, that's all. I cannot sleep at night. I close my eyes . . . [Agatha pauses.] But I get no rest. Please, it is just my old tired bones . . .} {133}{}{I'm sorry, I'm very tired. Could you please come back later?} {134}{}{Baba.} {135}{}{Okay.} {136}{}{Why are you so tired?} {137}{}{I don't sleep well at night, my child. It must be my age.} {138}{}{Good day, my child. You look well. You remind me of my own baby.} {139}{}{Hng.} {140}{}{I want a story, then.} {141}{}{I'm glad you are feeling better.} {142}{}{Thank you. Goodbye.} {143}{}{You definitely remind me of my baby. When she was just a few months old, as a matter of fact.} {144}{}{Thank you. Dharma always said that the farmer who plants politeness will walk easy when the season is over.} {145}{}{Please tell me a story.} {146}{}{This Dharma fellow sounds like an idiot.} {147}{}{You insult your elders. You should know better.}
This is the message file for Agatha's bed (AGATHABED.MSG):
{100}{}{The bed looks neatly made despite its tattered nature.} {101}{}{You see a tattered bed.} {102}{}{Agatha would not be happy if you messed up her bed.}
Barterman
Provides another method of initiating the Shady Sands radscorpion quest. He might be an earlier version of Aradesh. BARTER.MSG.
{100}{}{You see Barterman.} {101}{}{Do you want to trade?} {102}{}{Click Barter -->} {103}{}{Nope.} {104}{}{We have been plagued by Rad Scorpions for some time now. All who have been sent to destroy these monsters have not returned. I will give you weapons and armor if you will follow my guide to their lair and kill them all.} {105}{}{Sounds good.} {106}{}{No thanks.} {107}{}{That is a shame. Please leave.} {108}{}{Excellent. Sammy here will guide you to the lair. Take these items, they will come in useful. } {109}{}{Please help us as soon as possible. Time is wasting.} {110}{}{I don't talk to your kind, stranger.}
Barterman's Guard
BGUARD.MSG
{100}{}{You see a guard.} {101}{}{I work for the Barterman.} {102}{}{Got any donuts?} {103}{}{If you break it, you buy it!} {104}{}{Shoplifters will be killed!} {105}{}{Are you gonna buy something? Perhaps in this century?} {106}{}{Can't fight Rad Scorpions without this stuff.} {107}{}{I work for the Barterman.}
The Elder
The Elder seems to be another early version of Aradesh, he is also curiously present in the game's preview. ELDER.MSG
{100}{}{You see the Elder.} {101}{}{I am pleased to meet you. I hope you have found this little village pleasing so far.} {102}{}{Yes.} {103}{}{Nope, not enough action around here.} {104}{}{Excellent. I have a favor to ask of you. I promise that you will be well-rewarded for your services to this community.} {105}{}{Tell me more . . .} {106}{}{This is just a demo, but perhaps you will like what I have to say next.} {107}{}{I'm all ears . . .} {108}{}{We have been plagued by Rad Scorpions for some time now. All who have been sent to destroy these monsters have not returned. I will give you weapons and armor if you will follow my guide to their lair and kill them all.} {109}{}{Sounds good.} {110}{}{No thanks.} {111}{}{That is a shame. Please leave.} {112}{}{Excellent. Sammy here will guide you to the lair. Take these items - they will come in useful. } {113}{}{Please help us as soon as possible. Time is wasting.} {114}{}{I don't talk to your kind, stranger.}
Sammy
Sammy seems to be an early version of Seth, the gate guard who guides you to the radscorpion caves. SAMMY.MSG
{100}{}{You see Sammy.} {101}{}{caves.map} {102}{}{Speak to the Elder. He has something important to tell you first.} {103}{}{Follow me. I know the way to the lair.} {104}{}{Boy, I wish you had the guts to help us out.} {105}{}{All ready to go? Once we get to the lair, there is no coming back until the job is done.} {106}{}{Yes} {107}{}{No} {108}{}{caves.map} {109}{}{Boy, I wish you had the guts to help us out.} {110}{}{Follow me. I know the way to the lair.} {111}{}{All ready to go? Once we get to the lair, there is no coming back until the job is done.} {112}{}{Yes} {113}{}{No} {114}{}{OK, I'll wait for here. Let me know when you're ready to go.}
Unlike Seth, he would have accompanied you to the radscorpion caves. SAMMY2.MSG
{100}{}{You see Sammy.} {101}{}{We can't leave until all the radscorpions are dead.}
Junktown
Bob
Bob, not to be confused with Iguana Bob, was a compulsive gambler whom could be extorted for caps. JTBOB.MSG
{100}{}{You see the haggard shape of Bob.} {101}{}{Please don't kill me! I swear I'll get you your money.!} {102}{}{Duh-huh.} {103}{}{Yeah, you'd better pay up.} {104}{}{I think I have the wrong room.} {105}{}{What are you talking about?} {106}{}{Ack! You must be Dumb Fred, Merciless Killer of the Dirt. Please don't kill me!} {107}{}{Here. Here. Take this. It's all I have.} {108}{}{You mean you're not here to kill me?} {109}{}{Nope. It's your lucky day.} {110}{}{No. Who would be threatening you?} {111}{}{Thanks. I just got a little nervous when you walked in here with a } {112}{}{ in your hand.} {113}{}{Thanks. I just got a little nervous when you walked in here with a } {114}{}{ in your hand.} {115}{}{Geez, I thought you were from the Casino. Sure as sand in the desert, I owe them a lot of money.} {116}{}{Why do you owe them so much money?} {117}{}{Who at the casino do you owe this money to?} {118}{}{How much money do you owe?} {119}{}{Hmmm. Thanks for the info.} {120}{}{They cheat. I played a little slots and some poker. But I'm a better player than that. I swear those machines are rigged. I lost a lot of money.} {121}{}{Who at the casino do you owe this money to?} {122}{}{How much money do you owe?} {123}{}{Hmmm. Thanks for the info.} {124}{}{Some goons. They say they work for the Casino Boss, but I never saw him. One was called Izo, I think, and the other was some big Guido looking guy. Damn cheaters.} {125}{}{Why do you owe them so much money?} {126}{}{How much money do you owe?} {127}{}{Hmmm. Thanks for the info.} {128}{}{Oh, not too much. A couple thousand. I only played for four or five hours. Well, maybe a little longer. They gave me some markers, and I don't have enough here to cover it. I gotta get back to the Hub and get some cash. I'm afraid they'll beat me up if I try to leave.} {129}{}{Why do you owe them so much money?} {130}{}{Who at the casino do you owe this money to?} {131}{}{Hmmm. Thanks for the info.} {132}{}{Oh, it's you again. I hope you did better than me.} {133}{}{Hey, what are you doing in my room? Are you from the Casino?} {134}{}{Nhhh!} {135}{}{Yeah, I'm from the Casino.} {136}{}{No, I'm just looking around.} {137}{}{What's wrong with the Casino?} {138}{}{Oh gosh. I thought you were from the Casino. You scared me.} {139}{}{Oh, Ok. Bye.} {140}{}{Why?} {141}{}{Well, I got into some trouble there. I owe them a lot of money.} {142}{}{Why do you owe them so much money?} {143}{}{Who at the casino do you owe this money to?} {144}{}{How much money do you owe?} {145}{}{Hmmm. Thanks for the info.} {146}{}{Oh, it's you again. You scared me for a moment. You haven't seen anyone from the Casino around here, have you?} {147}{}{Hnnn!} {148}{}{No.} {149}{}{Yep, sure did.} {150}{}{Hey, I got some questions for you.} {151}{}{Good, good. I just need a couple more days, and I'll make their money back and much more. I'm a better gambler than they think.} {152}{}{Ack! Ohmygawd! I'm in trouble! Bye.} {153}{}{Go ahead, shoot. Oh, bad choice of words, Bob. Bad choice of words.} {154}{}{Why do you owe them so much money?} {155}{}{Who at the casino do you owe this money to?} {156}{}{How much money do you owe?} {157}{}{Hmmm. Thanks for the info.}
Gambler
His real name is Hernandez. He would have appeared in Gizmo's casino, waiting for someone to come around so he could rip them off. GAMBLER.MSG
{100}{}{You see a seedy-looking Mexican man with slick hair.} {101}{}{You see Hernandez, the rascally gambler.} {102}{}{Oye, muchacho, allow me to introduce myself. I am Hernandez, a man of mucho gusto! You look like you are new here. Please, allow me to be your informant to the casino.} {103}{}{Can you tell me about the casino?} {104}{}{No, thanks.} {105}{}{Bloo?} {106}{}{But of course! This fine establishment is run by the famous Gizmo. A true visionary and a very wealthy man.} {107}{}{Thanks.} {108}{}{You say Gizmo is a visionary. What's his vision?} {109}{}{What are the odds like on the games here?} {110}{}{My friend, I hate to impose, but perhaps you could assist me. I have developed a sure-fire system, because I have discovered how Gizmo runs his tables, but I do not have the caps to play.} {111}{}{ [You get the feeling that he's trying to scam you.]} {112}{}{Perhaps you can spare a few caps? I guarantee success.} {113}{}{Sure, sounds good.} {114}{}{No, thanks.} {115}{}{I think you're lying. You're trying to scam me.} {116}{}{Sorry, mi amigo. Hey, let me show you a neat game . . .} {117}{}{Thank you very much, mi amigo! In a few days I shall be able to pay you back, with interest. My system is slow, you see, it requires much patience, but it will most certainly reap great profits!} {118}{}{Very well, but I guarantee success! If you want to get in on the riches just waiting, come back soon, or I will find another partner!} {119}{}{My friend, I see you are a man of much taste, as well. Perhaps a simple game of dice?} {120}{}{All right!} {121}{}{No, thanks, I'd rather try something else.} {122}{}{Gizmo had a dream of setting up a place where people could meet and enjoy themselves. He had the ambition to make it happen. The result is the casino you see here.} {123}{}{He gives people a chance to shrug off their cares in the broken world outside. And he brings money into Junktown!} {124}{}{Sounds like a good idea.} {125}{}{Life's hard enough. I don't trust the motives of someone who would encourage people to lose their money.} {126}{}{You obviously don't share Gizmo's brilliance. This place is a respite from the harshness of everyday life.} {127}{}{Well, Gizmo runs a pretty good house, although the games are, how shall we say, rather weighted towards the house. It's not like his dealers cheat, though. But unless you have a system, like me, you will need to be very clever.} {128}{}{Thanks.} {129}{}{} {130}{}{How is your system coming?} {131}{}{Nothing, thanks.} {132}{}{My system is developing slowly. I have living expenses and such, you know, but it is working!} {133}{}{That's great!} {134}{}{I think that you are a liar and a cheat. Where's my money?} {135}{}{So, you think you have tumbled to me, eh? Well, you won't get anything from me!} # # TRANSLATION NOTE: The following two lines are identical in English, but they # differ in foreign translations. The first line is for the case of the # player-character masculine ("my friend" will be masculine); the second line is # for the case of the player-character feminine ("my friend" will be feminine). # {136}{}{Buenos dias, my friend! What can I do for you today?} {137}{}{Buenos dias, my friend! What can I do for you today?}
Vasquez
Full name Vasquez Villanova Hernandez Ortega. His dialog indicates that he was a temporary companion for Junktown only. VASQUEZ.MSG
{100}{}{You see Vasquez, the mercenary desperado.} {101}{}{You see a seedy-looking gunman.} {102}{}{What do you want?} {103}{}{Who are you?} {104}{}{Hnn.} {105}{}{I do not work for the weak of mind. You leave now.} {106}{}{You have not heard of me? I am hurt! My name is Vasquez Villanova Hernandez Ortega. I am a famous desperado, my friend. And, if you have need, I am a gun for hire.} {107}{}{Really? How much do you cost?} {108}{}{See you around, maybe . . . good luck. Heh.} {109}{}{Ahh, straight to the point, my friend. Excellent. I will help you around town for a measly $500 a week. My services are not cheap, but then again, I am worth it.} {110}{}{Great, I'll hire you. Here's $500.} {111}{}{Sorry to bother you, but I don't think I need your services.} {112}{}{I am sorry, my friend, but I do not work for imaginary money. I need cold, hard cash.} {113}{}{Excellent. I am yours. Let us go, this place bores me.} {114}{}{Lead on, I am yours to command!} {115}{}{Let us get something to drink!} {116}{}{Where shall we go first?} {117}{}{As long as you stay in Junktown, I am yours. I do not like leaving this town.} {118}{}{Did you know that I have a bounty on my head? It is too small, however.} {119}{}{Ah, my friend. It is good to see you again.} {120}{}{I want to hire you for a week.} {121}{}{Nice meeting you again.} {122}{}{Hnn.} {123}{}{Well, maybe it is not so good to see you again. Have a good day.} {124}{}{Of course you do. My bill is small, and my worth is so large. $500, please.} {125}{}{Here you go.} {126}{}{You should not have done that, my soon to be dead friend.}
The Hub
Avery
A guard for the Friendly Lending Company. His interactions with the player character were limited to standing around and attacking. AVERY.MSG
{100}{}{You see a guard for the Friendly Lending Company.} {101}{}{What the Hell! Get him!} {102}{}{What the Hell! Get her!}
Dead Guy
He's not actually dead. No name is given other than the generic 'Hubbian'. He was an associate of Decker whose life could be spared after killing Decker's team. DEADGUY.MSG
{100}{}{You see a Hubbian.} {101}{}{I can't believe I'm alive and I CAN'T believe you took them all out! Wait, what am I saying? I'm alive, aren't I? I'll believe anything you tell me right now.} {102}{}{I'm going to kill you now.} {103}{}{Give me all your money!} {104}{}{Clean up your life and get out of here or I'll finish you off, too!} {105}{}{Uk?} {106}{}{Uh, but? You? (sigh) Okay, do it quickly please. I hate pain.} {107}{}{Don't hurt me!} {108}{}{Okay. (He gives you 20 hub bucks.) Can I go now?} {109}{}{Yes.} {110}{}{No.} {111}{}{Uh, why?} {112}{}{Because I said so! Do you have a problem with that?} {113}{}{Okay, you can leave.} {114}{}{No, sorry, sir! Please don't hurt me -- I don't like pain!} {115}{}{No, sorry, ma'am! Please don't hurt me -- I don't like pain!} {118}{}{Are you stupid? I mean, thanks an awful lot for saving my life, kind sir. I've got to be going now. Bye.} {119}{}{Are you stupid? I mean, thanks an awful lot for saving my life, kind ma'am. I've got to be going now. Bye.} {122}{}{Yes . . . yes . . . yes sir. I'll never do anything bad, ever again! I . . . I won't cheat. I won't lie, blackmail, rob, murder or kidnap.} {123}{}{Yes . . . ye . . . yes ma'am. I'll never do anything bad, ever again! I . . . I won't cheat. I won't lie, blackmail, rob, murder or kidnap.} {126}{}{Just get out of here!} {127}{}{You're a liar!} {128}{}{Yes, sir!} {129}{}{Yes, ma'am!}
Iguana Bob Sign
Iguana Bob could have been turned in to the Sherriff and would have fled. This may or may not have been the player's doing. BOBSIGN.MSG
{100}{}{Closed by order of Sheriff Justin Greene.} {101}{}{There is a small sign on the booth.} {102}{}{Wanted: Iguana Bob Frazier, dead or alive. If you have seen any information on his present location or the persons responsible for his escape, please inform the Sheriff immediately.}
Richie
Another FLC guard. The Vault Dweller could have used him as an alternative to lockpicking to get into the bank vault by pretending to be an inspector. RICHIE.MSG
{100}{}{You see Richie.} {101}{}{You're not supposed to do that. I'm gonna have to stop you!} {102}{}{You're not supposed to be here. Do you realize I'm supposed to kill you?} {103}{}{Your shift is over. I'm your replacement.} {104}{}{Hub vault inspector. I'm here to inspect the vault. Move aside.} {105}{}{Kid, fight it. End the cycle of violence now!} {106}{}{Who told you that! Mister, if you attack me, it'll be the biggest mistake of your life!} {107}{}{Hi kid! What's in the steel vault?} {108}{}{Too late, punk. You're dead.} {109}{}{Uh... yeah... runk...} {110}{}{I'm not supposed to be talking to you! Scram!} {111}{}{It's about time! It's hot in here! Boring too! If I didn't need this job to feed my family, I'd tell Lorenzo to stick it. See you tomorrow.} {112}{}{I'm not supposed to leave this place and you're not supposed to be here. Get out!} {113}{}{You Hub officials make me sick! Inspecting my bosses' vault! What's next, higher taxes? Can't a man earn an honest living anymore without you bureaucrats trying to control everything? One of these days we're going to take a stand. Yeah, one of these days the common man is going to give you fatcats a knee to the balls like you deserve. One of these days we'll get you real good' I can't wait' By the way, it's not meant personal. I know you're just doing your job. I'll get out of your face while you do your inspection. Bye.} {114}{}{Don't give me this crap! Get outta here now or I'll have to shoot you!} {115}{}{Oh yeah. Well no one pushes around Richie Glowsteader and gets away with it!} {116}{}{Oh just about ten thousand Hub Bucks. Hope you weren't thinking of stealing it. I'd have to kill you. I almost killed someone once, so you don't want to mess with me!} {117}{}{Man, you're stupid. Oh, sorry, I didn't mean to offend you. Now let's try this again. "Yes" means I blow your head off. "No" means you get your butt out of here. Which is it going to be?} {118}{}{Ah . . . yes . . .} {119}{}{Uh... no...} {120}{}{Runk! Runk!} {121}{}{Man, I can't do it! It'd be like shooting a dumb animal. Just get outta here, okay?} {122}{}{That's good. Now run along now. I'm sure you might find someone to feed you...} {123}{}{Maybe one runk means "yes" and two runks mean "no". Okay, "runk" means I kill you. "Runk, runk" means you leave. Okay?} {124}{}{Runk} {125}{}{Runk, runk.} {126}{}{Runk, runk, runk!} {127}{}{Three runks. Shit, this isn't working. Maybe I'll just ignore you and you'll wander off'}
Rufus
He is playing a game called Cyberhood, Prince of the Matrix. He is mentioned in Cleo's dialog file. RUFUS.MSG
{100}{}{You see Rufus.} {101}{}{Please don't kill me...} {102}{}{Shhhh! I'm trying to play my game!} {103}{}{Quiet! I'm trying to play my game. Cyberhood, Prince of the Matrix, what a classic!} {104}{}{Damn! My character got beat up again. Roger is such a wimp...} {105}{}{Where is the key to Cyberspace? I've been all over the damn Kruz building...} {106}{}{You wouldn't happen to know the password into Malibu Stu's? Oh, never mind...} {107}{}{That Kaira, what a fox!} {108}{}{Don't bother me. I'm trying to solve this damn duck puzzle...}
Troy
Troy's job is to introduce the Vault Dweller to 'an elite band of worshippers'. Judging by his dialogue, he is probably a super mutant. TROY.MSG
{100}{}{You see Troy.} {101}{}{Congratulations, human. You've been selected to join an elite band of worshippers. Follow me.} {102}{}{This wouldn't happen to have anything to do with the rumors of a supermutant army running amok?} {103}{}{Where are we going?} {104}{}{What are you waiting for? Let's go!} {105}{}{I don't think so.} {106}{}{What's that terrible, disgusting corpse-like stench? Oh, it's you!} {107}{}{Ruh?} {108}{}{Follow me and you will find out. Or, to put it another way, follow me and live, fool!} {109}{}{So if I don't go, I die? That doesn't sound very religious.} {110}{}{You've convinced me. Let's start hoofing!} {111}{}{I don't think so.} {112}{}{Don't start what you can't finish, freak!} {113}{}{Excellent!} {114}{}{You should not play games with Lady Jain or the Children.} {115}{}{You should not insult what you cannot kill. Now, shall you come with me and live, or do you wish to stay here and die?} {116}{}{I'm coming!} {117}{}{Forget it.} {118}{}{Jeez, some mutants just can't take a joke!} {119}{}{If I keep smelling you, I'll drop dead anyway!} {120}{}{You stupid beast! Will you come or will you stay?} {121}{}{Uh . . . Come!} {122}{}{Uh . . . Me stay!} {123}{}{Do not plague me with indecision! What is your answer, human?} {124}{}{I'm coming with you. Let's go.} {125}{}{Forget it.} {126}{}{How dare you push me! No one tells me what to do!} {127}{}{Insolent dog! You will die now!} {128}{}{Do not plague me with your jests! What is your answer, human?} {129}{}{I'm coming with you. Let's go.} {130}{}{Forget it.} {131}{}{Don't push me, pal. I'm still trying to think of a good smartass comeback . . .} {132}{}{The mutant ignores you.}
Brotherhood
Brenden
Brenden is an initiate with some interesting background information on the Brotherhood. Someone must have decided he was wrong/could mislead players about the organization's canon backstory, because there is no obvious reason why he should have been cut. BRENDEN.MSG
{100}{}{You see a stern, young initiate with a book.} {101}{}{You see Initiate Brenden.} {102}{}{Good day. How may I be of assistance?} {103}{}{I'm looking for Master Scribe Vree.} {104}{}{I'm looking for General Maxson.} {105}{}{I'm looking for Paladin Rhombus.} {106}{}{What're you reading?} {107}{}{Gaahh.} {108}{}{Hmm. Apparently I may not be of assistance.} {109}{}{Master Scribe Vree is on level three, in the computer lab.} {110}{}{General Maxson is usually on level four, in the council chambers.} {111}{}{Paladin Rhombus spends most of his time on level one, in the supply room.} {112}{}{Is there anything else I can help you with?} {113}{}{Thanks. Good day.} {114}{}{Actually, it is a journal that I am keeping. I'm working on a treatise on the social dynamics of the Brotherhood.} {115}{}{Hmm. Sounds interesting.} {116}{}{So, what's the point?} {117}{}{Indeed. I've been researching information about our predecessors from before the war and about the societies of the outside world. I think that the Brotherhood comes closest in organization to the Knights Templar of the so-called 'Dark Ages'.} {118}{}{Why did you decide to study this?} {119}{}{The Knights Templar?} {120}{}{Although the Brotherhood places a high emphasis on hard sciences and applications technology, there has been little in the way of research into the soft sciences, like psychology and sociology. For a well-rounded education, we must apply scientific thought to all endeavors.} {121}{}{So what have you discovered?} {122}{}{I've come to the conclusion that the Brotherhood functions mostly like a pseudo-religious organization. We have the strong military hierarchy, combined with codes of honor passed down from our ancestors. Combine this with our technical skills and I think that there are two paths of development for the Brotherhood: a techno-religious dictatorship or a benevolent research society.} {123}{}{What could influence the development of the Brotherhood?} {124}{}{Ultimately we have a command heirarchy, with the Elders at the top. The most influential positions, then, are the Elders and the High Elder. A charismatic High Elder could direct the Brotherhood almost completely. We need to be careful to make sure that we have a leader who is both strong and visionary. Thankfully, I think that General Maxson fits that description.} {125}{}{According to my research, the Knights Templar were a military brotherhood which focused upon the acquisition of wealth and knowledge. Although they had some religious overtones in their structure, their quest for knowledge ultimately made them a secular organization. I think that they would have been a more theocratic organization if they had a greater interest in wealth and power, since the church of that era was primarily involved in control of gold and land.} {126}{}{And how does this relate to the Brotherhood?} {127}{}{We must understand our past if we are to recognize our directions for the future . . . but I'm sure you wouldn't understand that.}
Farli
A BOS paladin who apparently has IN < 4. FARLI.MSG
{100}{}{You see Paladin Farli.} {101}{}{Greetings.} {102}{}{Chad'ra chu ka?} {103}{}{Katja chu nee ka Chak'ra Farli.} {104}{}{Farli, nee ko } {105}{}{ mat'chak o Drake.} {106}{}{Ah, Drake ko mat'chak.} {107}{}{Say hello to our mutual friend if you see him again.} {108}{}{The Brotherhood reminds me of home.}
Michael
Michael exists in the game, but these lines are disabled. They are related to a cut mini-quest to deliver some pulse grenades to Sophia. MICHAEL.MSG
{190}{}{Well actually. Sophia has been in need of some Pulse grenades but I haven't had a chance to run them down to her yet. Do you think you could run them down for me?} {191}{}{Sure. Hand them over.} {192}{}{Sorry, I don't have time. Hope you can find someone else.} {193}{}{What do I look like, your lackey?} {194}{}{Okay, there you go. Sophia is one of the two Assistant Master Scribes for Vree. She is normally in the library on the third floor.} {195}{}{Why haven't you delivered the items I gave you? Sophia is expecting them.} {196}{}{I'm sorry. Could you tell me where she is again.} {197}{}{I lost them. Can I have some more?} {198}{}{I'm sorry, I lost track of time.} {199}{}{Ha! You thought I would actually deliver it? You're dumber than you look!} {200}{}{She is normally in the library on the third floor.} {201}{}{Guards! We have a thief! Show him what we do to those that betray the Brotherhood.} {202}{}{Guards! We have a thief! Show her what we do to those that betray the Brotherhood.} {203}{}{Sorry, I'm not talking to the likes of you.} {204}{}{Likely story. I knew I shouldn't have trusted someone like you.} {205}{}{I can't believe you'd show your face around here again. I hope the grenades were useful, you're never getting anything from me again. I don't care who supposedly gives you authorization.} {206}{}{Why hello again. Sophia says you delivered the grenades. That was very kind of you. She is working on a better version and needed to see if the circuitry was compatible.}
Vree
While Vree exists and can be interacted with, the part of her message file referencing a traitor named Kedrick is unused. Only the unused part of her dialog file is present: VREE.MSG
{158}{}{I've got some important news to tell you about Kedrick. He's a traitor.} {159}{}{What you would do if there was corruption within the Brotherhood.} {160}{}{Nuhh. Nuh-uh-nuh!} {161}{Vree35}{Very good. I really can tell the lessons have helped.} {162}{Vree36}{Kedrick? He's been a loyal member of the Brotherhood forever. I doubt you would even know what that means.} {163}{}{Yeah, I do. Kedrick is a traitor and planning to overthrow your leaders.} {164}{}{Maybe so.} {165}{Vree37}{You're certain of this? Perhaps we should go talk to the High Elder.} {166}{Vree38}{Do not bother me with innuendo. Bring proof to the High Elder, or say nothing of this.} {167}{Vree39}{Do what must be done. Stamp out the heresy and remove those responsible for the stain.} {168}{}{Even if it was a trusted member of the Brotherhood.} {169}{}{And who would do the removal?} {170}{Vree40}{Even so. But proof would have to be offered.} {171}{}{Kedrick is a traitor. He is planning on killing the Elders.} {172}{}{I'll get the proof.} {173}{Vree41}{Then we must go to the High Elder. Bring your proof and we'll go talk to him.} {174}{Vree42}{The High Elder and Rhombus, of course.}
Military Base
Abel
This is only a portion of Abel's message file. It is not possible to taunt him into lowering the forcefield in the final game. ABEL.MSG
{106}{}{Oh, yeah? Your momma!} {107}{}{Pik!} {108}{}{I'm gonna kick yer ass if you say that again!} {109}{}{Pik! Pik!} {110}{}{Oh, you gonna get it now!} {111}{}{You human. Me mutant. Mutant kill human.} {112}{}{How can you do that? What about the force field?} {113}{}{Abel take care of that. Then Abel kick yer ass!}
The Glow
GLOWBOX.MSG
A unique type of container that was never implemented. Most of The Glow's unused message files are of this nature.
{100}{}{This looks to be the footlocker of some guards.} {101}{}{You pick the lock on the box.} {102}{}{You failed to pick the lock on the lockbox.} {103}{}{This item is useless on the lockbox.} {104}{}{The box is locked.} {105}{}{You pick the lock on the box.} {106}{}{You failed to pick the lock on the box.} {107}{}{This skill is useless on the box.}
GLOWCAGE.MSG
{100}{}{It appears as though this cage contained lab animals for for testing. Somehow, the bars have been torn off.}
This is a reference to a faction that was (thankfully) never approved for full development according to developer comments, called the S'Lanter. The S'Lanter were a race of intelligent raccoons that mutated due to FEV and radiation from lab animals kept at the West-Tek research facility, then escaped to a (never created) location called the Burrows. Another reference to it can be found on the FEV Experiment Disk, which was strangely not cut from the game.
GLOWDESK.MSG
{100}{}{The drawer to the desk is stuck.} {101}{}{You pry the drawer open.} {102}{}{The drawer is still jammed tight.} {103}{}{The desk is unaffected by the skill.}
GLOWTABL.MSG
This is the dialogue file for the tables in the Glow {100}{}{With all the mess, it is hard to see what was actually on this table at one time.}
GLWALIEN.MSG
{100}{}{A frozen corpse.} {101}{}{This is definitely not of terrestrial origin.} {102}{}{This body might be some kind of genetic experiment.} {103}{}{What? It's a dead body.} {104}{}{This frozen body looks odd.}
Graffiti
GRAFFITI.MSG
{100}{}{Scrawled on a scrap of paper is a barely legible message: 'Hea d or t lower-level exit. No time o vac e test p je T s t e big ! Dan Sc ly.}
It's an X-Files reference. This was mentioned in Fallout Bible 9: "Behind one of the broken goo-filled suspension tanks was a body of a big-headed alien. Near that was a desk with a note on it. The note had about every third letter taken out, but if you puzzled out what it said, you could figure out that it was an evacuation notice, signed by Dana Scully."
Boneyard
Alex
A Regulator who would refuse to let anyone into Adytum at night. He could be provoked into hostility through conversation. ALEX.MSG
{100}{}{You see: Alex, the night watch Regulator.} # TRANSLATION NOTE # The player-character's name is inserted after line 101. {101}{}{Come on in, } {102}{}{Sorry, I can't let you in. Come back in the morning.} {103}{}{Halt! Who goes there?} {104}{}{I'm just a traveler. I'd like to come inside.} {105}{}{None of your business.} {106}{}{Um, sorry. I'll leave.} {107}{}{No strangers are allowed within the walls of Adytum, by order of the mayor.} {108}{}{I just need a place to sleep for the night.} {109}{}{I'm sorry, but I can't let you in. Turn around and leave or I'll have to shoot.} {110}{}{Look, it is my duty and my honor to serve as the night watch for Adytum, so it is my business. You turn around and leave, or I'll have to get serious.} {111}{}{Get out of my face, John Law.} {112}{}{Try coming back in the morning.} {113}{}{Oh, that's it. Now the gloves are off!} {114}{}{Nghgh.}
Beca & Jade
Female Blades who share a dialog file. The other characters mentioned in this file are unused as well. BECA.MSG
{100}{}{You see Jade.} {101}{}{You see Beca.} {102}{}{} {103}{}{} {104}{}{You see a member of the Blades.} {105}{}{You see a member of the Blades.} {106}{}{You think that might be Books.} {107}{}{You think that might be Scars.} {108}{}{You think that might be Gunner.} {109}{}{You think that might be Twitch.} {110}{}{You think that might be Hammer.} {111}{}{You think that might be Razor.} {112}{}{These are sleeping quarters. Now get out of here before I kick your butt.} {113}{}{Try it.} {114}{}{Sorry about that. Goodbye.} {115}{}{Can I crash here?} {116}{}{No. These are for real Blades, not some wuss.} {117}{}{Hey, homie! Wazzup? Crash here if you need a safe place.}
Dolgan & Snake
More members of the Blades. (One of them) would have increased your Melee Weapons skill. This file mentions Tangler, leader of the Rippers, who does not appear in the game but his hand does. DOLGAN.MSG
{100}{}{You see Snake.} {101}{}{You see Dolgan.} {102}{}{} {103}{}{} {104}{}{You see a member of the Blades.} {105}{}{You see a member of the Blades.} {106}{}{You think that might be Books.} {107}{}{You think that might be Scars.} {108}{}{You think that might be Gunner.} {109}{}{You think that might be Twitch.} {110}{}{You think that might be Hammer.} {111}{}{You think that might be Razor.} {112}{}{Get lost! This is only for real fighters.} {113}{}{So, you think you can take on Tangler and his wimps? Here, I'll teach you to use that blade.} {114}{}{Now you are a little better at that. Go kick Tangler's butt into next year for me.} {115}{}{Great job on hacking those Rippers. What can I do for you?} {116}{}{Can you teach me some more blade skills?} {117}{}{How can I get into the Gun Runners?} {118}{}{Nothing, thanks.} {119}{}{Sure thing. But it will take most of the day for a little improvement. You still want that?} {120}{}{Yes.} {121}{}{No.} {122}{}{There you go. You've shown a little improvement. Good luck to you.} {123}{}{Sure thing. Come back when you want more training.} {124}{}{Seems like we let in a fool. Well, if you want to get into their place, there is a slight break in their moat. Look for it and run like mad. You may even make it across.} {125}{}{Thanks.}
Dragon
Yet another member of the Blades. This was probably the part of the game being worked on before development was ceased. DRAGON.MSG
{100}{}{You see Dragon.} {101}{}{} {102}{}{} {103}{}{You see a member of the Blades.} {104}{}{You see a member of the Blades.} {105}{}{You think that might be Books.} {106}{}{You think that might be Scars.} {107}{}{You think that might be Gunner.} {108}{}{You think that might be Twitch.} {109}{}{You think that might be Hammer.} {110}{}{You think that might be Razor.} {111}{}{Get lost! Can't you tell I'm trying to get some rest!} {112}{}{What are ya doing roaming around out here?} {113}{}{Just looking at the stars.} {114}{}{Out looking for you.} {115}{}{Hunting.} {116}{}{Your looking's cost you dearly. What's the story? Tell me the truth, and you may live.} {117}{}{I'm really here to kill you.} {118}{}{I want to end the gang wars.} {119}{}{Just looking for home. It's right there. The moon.} {120}{}{I think I'd be sorry about that, but I don't pay heed to dead people.} {121}{}{Fat chance. Now, get out of here before I send the night guard after you.} {122}{}{My, you don't enjoy life much. I'll help you end it.} {123}{}{You found me. Now, walk or die!} {124}{}{I think I'll walk.} {125}{}{I'd rather live.} {126}{}{What's the word on the Rippers?} {127}{}{They're gonna kill ya!} {128}{}{They're dead. See?} {129}{}{Nothing yet.} {130}{}{Great. Go take it to Razor.} {131}{}{Don't lie to me. Get out!} {132}{}{Then get your butt out of here and can the bastard!} {133}{}{Yo, homie! Nice job you did on the Rippers!}
Fire
Fire was Razor (Blade leader)'s right hand man. He was given IN < 4 dialog. He makes mention of the Blades-Rippers gang war subplot that was never implemented, so he too went. FIRE.MSG
{100}{}{You see Fire.} {101}{}{} {102}{}{} {103}{}{You see a member of the Blades.} {104}{}{You see a member of the Blades.} {105}{}{You think that might be Books.} {106}{}{You think that might be Scars.} {107}{}{You think that might be Gunner.} {108}{}{You think that might be Twitch.} {109}{}{You think that might be Hammer.} {110}{}{You think that might be Razor.} {111}{}{Whatcha want, loser?} {112}{}{Err.} {113}{}{I want to become a Blade.} {114}{}{What would it take for me to get peace between you and Adytum?} {115}{}{This! *smack*} {116}{}{Nothing. Sorry I bothered you.} {117}{}{I am just inspecting your place.} {118}{}{Great. Another stupid one. You have the sound of a Ripper.} {119}{}{Rrrrr.} {120}{}{Arrrr.} {121}{}{Arrooo?} {122}{}{Don't like them much either? Maybe we can use you for a little 'work.'} {123}{}{Urroo.} {124}{}{Un nah.} {125}{}{Okay, talk to the head wench. Razor'll set you straight as to what ta do.} {126}{}{Stupid and a chicken. I'll put you out of your misery now.} {127}{}{So you are a Ripper! I'd be sorry to hear that, but then I already knew they were stupid. Goodnight!} {128}{}{The Rippers. Those inbreds on the other side of town. Never mind. You're too stupid to know anything.} {129}{}{You want to be a Blade? Good luck. But, if you can find Razor, talk to her about that. Maybe she'll let you get jumped in.} {130}{}{Okay, thanks.} {131}{}{Then I don't want in!} {132}{}{What do you mean, 'jumped in?'} {133}{}{Can't you just make me a Blade?} {134}{}{Your momma never wanted you, and we don't either.} {135}{}{Simple. You'll have to kill someone to get in here. She will tell you who you're gonna need to kill.} {136}{}{Okay, thanks.} {137}{}{Never mind. I don't want to be part of your stupid gang.} {138}{}{No. I can't. I don't lead. I just keep Razor going straight.} {139}{}{Simple. Slaughter our enemies, then we will give Adytum a break.} {140}{}{Who are your enemies?} {141}{}{Fair enough. Will you give me proof of this?} {142}{}{Fighting is wrong! I won't do it!} {143}{}{The Rippers. Those Gun Runners are just a pain, but nothing important. They are a bunch of soft-sellers, anyway.} {144}{}{Okay, I'll kill the Rippers.} {145}{}{Never mind.} {146}{}{If you plan on doing that, you may want to let Razor know. Otherwise, she will have your head before you get out of here.} {147}{}{Suit yourself. Goodbye.} {148}{}{I don't make the deals. I only make suggestions. Talk to Razor if you want to deal.} {149}{}{Then killing you now would save you many years of suffering.} {150}{}{Then inspect this!} {151}{}{Get lost if you want to live.} {152}{}{Quiet. We are trying to sneak up on the Rippers.} {153}{}{If ya' got the head, take it to Razor. She still wants to play soccer. Otherwise, get out!} {154}{}{Yo, homie!}
Jason Zimmerman
Jason is the son of the mayor of Adytum. In the final game, he is dead, having been killed by the Regulators. In the stage of development when this was written, he would have been kidnapped by, again, the Rippers, another gang that was never implemented but still has remnants buried throughout the game's files. JASON.MSG
{100}{}{You see a young man with sharp features.} {101}{}{You see Jason Zimmerman.} {102}{}{Hey, are you from really far away? Have you had a lot of adventures?} {103}{}{Yes, I'm from a Vault far to the north.} {104}{}{Actually, I'm from Mars. Want to see my firelance?} {105}{}{I've had some adventures.} {106}{}{Haven't done all that much, really.} {107}{}{Uh, far. Vault.} {108}{}{Oh. I thought someone who'd been through the wastes outside would be, well, smarter. Never mind.} {109}{}{Miles says that now that you got those parts, he can get the farms working, so that we don't have to sell bullets to the Hub. I never thought much about it until Smitty pointed out that the bullets he made were } {110}{}{sold to the Hub, who sold them to the gangs. I guess you found a good solution.} {111}{}{I never thought that we would be able to stop fighting the gangs. My father told me how you got them to promise to leave us alone. You know, I thought I always wanted to go adventuring, but I think that I like . . . well, the } {112}{}{feeling of security here now. No more worrying about the gangs suddenly attacking and wondering who's going to be killed.} {113}{}{Lorraine says that there was a Vault south of here, where a lot of my grandparents lived. What's it like living in a Vault?} {114}{}{It's pretty boring, actually.} {115}{}{It's very exciting. We have all sorts of technology you wouldn't believe!} {116}{}{Oh. Well, you must have had some adventures after leaving, right?} {117}{}{Not really.} {118}{}{Yes, there's quite a bit of danger out there.} {119}{}{As someone once wrote, 'Adventure is someone else far away having a very unpleasant time.'} {120}{}{Huh. The Hub merchants talk about radscorpions and stuff.} {121}{}{Actually, it's mostly just desert.} {122}{}{Well, actually, there are all sorts of monsters out there.} {123}{}{Really? What kinds of monsters have you fought?} {124}{}{Not much, just some rats and stuff.} {125}{}{Yeah, the Hub guards said that there are lots of radioactive mutant things living in the desert. Monster hunting must be a real blast!} {126}{}{Yes, it's a real kick!} {127}{}{No; it's more of a pain. Venom, bites, radiation . . . it's deadly.} {128}{}{I wish that I could go adventuring sometime.} {129}{}{I never though about that. I rather like having clean water and a place to stay.} {130}{}{I thought that living in the wasteland would be . . . you know . . . rugged, and dangerous, and everything. But I suppose we have enough to keep us busy here, with the gangs and all.} {131}{}{What, are you some kind of weirdo or something? Caleb never should have let you in the gates!} {132}{}{That's cool. All we have here is this stupid well and those underground farms that Miles keeps trying to get working.} {133}{}{Yeah, I noticed that you don't have a bedroll or anything. It must get pretty dirty and uncomfortable out there.} {134}{}{Hello again. Have any interesting stories to tell?} {135}{}{What do you want to know about?} {136}{}{Not really.} {137}{}{Well, if you do anything interesting, tell me all about it!} {138}{}{Leave me alone!} {139}{}{Thank goodness you're here! Please help me get out of here!} {140}{}{Ayuh.} {141}{}{Don't worry, I'll get us out of here.} {142}{}{Sorry kid, you're on your own!} {143}{}{What are you doing here?} {144}{}{Thank you!} {145}{}{Please don't leave me!} {146}{}{I thought that it would be fun to leave Adytum and explore the world. But the Rippers caught me and have been holding me here. Please, help me!} {147}{}{All right, let's get out of here!} {148}{}{No way. You got yourself into this, you get out.} {149}{}{I hope we get out of here soon!}
Julianna
A woman in love with Romero. She would have been involved in a quest as the recipient of a locket. JULIANNA.MSG
{100}{}{You see Julianna.} {101}{}{You see a simple Adytowner.} {102}{}{Hello.} {103}{}{Erf.} {104}{}{Hello.} {105}{}{I have a message from Romero.} {106}{}{May I ask your name, miss?} {107}{}{I'm Julianna.} {108}{}{Do you have a job here?} {109}{}{Can I ask a little about your town?} {110}{}{I do what Caleb asks. But I am really only able to do a little farming. I don't have the skills to help Smitty or Miles out.} {111}{}{Tell me a bit about those others you mentioned.} {112}{}{We survive, and the Regulators make sure that nothing happens to hurt us. Mostly by not letting us out of here.} {113}{}{Well, Miles does chemistry, and he makes bullets and things. Smitty is a craftsman who builds things like pots and knives.} {114}{}{You have a message from Romero? What is it?} {115}{}{He says that he's through with you.} {116}{}{He says that he sends his love.} {117}{}{He sent this locket as a token.} {118}{}{No . . . it can't be true . . . I . . .} {119}{}{Did he do nothing else?} {120}{}{No, sorry.} {121}{}{Oh yeah, he sent this locket.} {122}{}{How romantic! Oh, I must see him somehow! If only . . . perhaps . . . maybe Lorraine can bring him a message . . .} {123}{}{Oh! Thank you so much for your help! We have decided to live here now, with the Followers, in peace. Thank you for supporting our love.} {124}{}{I cannot live without him!} {125}{}{Julianna draws a knife and plunges it into herself!} {126}{}{You gain 250 for assisting the star-crossed lovers with the delivery of Romero's locket to Julianna.}
Michelle
Another Blade. She existed as an accessory for the unused and incomplete quest involving a gang war between the Rippers and Blades. MICHELLE.MSG

Honest.} {114}{}{I'm just looking around.} {115}{}{This! *smack*} {116}{}{A moron. I think that you'd best get out of here. Otherwise, you may become target practice.} {117}{}{Arroo!} {118}{}{Arook.} {119}{}{Nothing, eh? I think you're hiding something. Out with it before you see your guts.} {120}{}{I'm really a Martian.} {121}{}{I'm here to stop the gang wars.} {122}{}{I'm not up to anything.} {123}{}{I'm up to THIS! *smack*} {124}{}{Everyone knows there are no such things as Martians. All real aliens are from Venus. Now, you die!} {125}{}{Sure, and I'm the Queen of Mexico.} {126}{}{Honest. I want to stop the wars so I can help Adytum.} {127}{}{Your Majesty, I truly seek to end the wars.} {128}{}{If your intelligence were greater, I would try to explain the benefits of peace.} {129}{}{If you're here to do that, then you'll need to try and find Razor. She'll let you know what we think of that.} {130}{}{Uh, thanks. I think.} {131}{}{Okay. Good bye.} {132}{}{Mock me, will you? I guess I should expect as much from a child. Oh, by the way. Here!} {133}{}{Fancy talk will only get you so far. Here, it will get you about six feet under.} {134}{}{If you are up to nothing, then we will put you up to something. I think 'target' makes a good something.} {135}{}{You looked. Now, what do you want? Think quick. It may mean the difference between walking out of here and becoming a permanent resident.} {136}{}{I'd like to live here.} {137}{}{I'm really a Ripper in disguise.} {138}{}{I want to bring peace to the gangs.} {139}{}{Leaving.} {140}{}{Nothing special. Just looking at the garbage to be recycled.} {141}{}{We never said anything about living. You would just reside here. Indefinitely. Enjoy your stay.} {142}{}{I'm glad you said that. I've been meaning to sharpen this. } {143}{}{Soon I will have a hide to sharpen it on.} {144}{}{Not so fast. The only way someone leaves here is if they are a Blade, or in a bag.} {145}{}{Then I want to be a Blade.} {146}{}{How big is this bag?} {147}{}{You forget the third option. Me!} {148}{}{Fat chance. But, he's a test. If you can find Razor, then you can talk to her about that.} {149}{}{Big enough to stuff your body parts in when we finish.} {150}{}{I am not Sleeping Beauty. I do not need to be awakened. Get out or die.} {151}{}{Hear you're out for the bastard's head. Give him an extra knife twist for me.} {152}{}{Welcome back. The Hole is open and ready to house you once more.}
Ripper Prisoner
This might actually be Jason Zimmerman. The Rippers don't even exist in the final game, and the section of the map intended as their base is instead infested with Deathclaws. There are no prisoners in that area, only corpses. RIPPPRIS.MSG
{100}{}{You see a hapless prisoner.} {101}{}{These people are crazy here. Help me get out of here!} {102}{}{No way!} {103}{}{Die!} {104}{}{Okay.} {105}{}{Oh, thank you. Thank you. Good bye!} {106}{}{But . . .}
Romero
Yet another Blade (the last one), in love with a woman named Julianna to whom he asks the Vault Dweller to deliver a locket, as he can't risk entering Adytum. After completing the unused quest, the two would get married and live happily ever after...or not. ROMERO.MSG
{100}{}{You see Romero.} {103}{}{You see a member of the Blades.} {104}{}{You see a member of the Blades.} {105}{}{You think that might be Books.} {106}{}{You think that might be Scars.} {107}{}{You think that might be Gunner.} {108}{}{You think that might be Twitch.} {109}{}{You think that might be Hammer.} {110}{}{You think that might be Razor.} {111}{}{Stand down!} {112}{}{What? What do you mean?} {113}{}{Never!} {114}{}{I'm here to talk about peace.} {115}{}{Okay.} {116}{}{I ask the questions here. What are you doing here?} {117}{}{I'm here looking for a friend.} {118}{}{I'm here to talk about peace.} {119}{}{I want to end the gang war!} {120}{}{I want to drink the blood of the Blades!} {121}{}{Then you're looking in the wrong area. Get lost.} {122}{}{You must be one of those wimpy little purple robes. Get out of here before we blow you away.} {123}{}{Wait! I don't know what you're talking about. I'm here for Adytum. They want me to get everyone to leave them alone.} {124}{}{Peace THIS!} {125}{}{Sorry. I'll be going now.} {126}{}{Hmm. If you are really from Adytum, then you are still a loser. There can never be peace while those Rippers are still around.} {127}{}{What do you mean?} {128}{}{Uh, sure.} {129}{}{Ask Razor. She'll explain about those bloodthirsty inbreds.} {130}{}{Get lost!} {131}{}{Hey, now that you are a Blade, I need to ask you a favor.} {132}{}{Sure.} {133}{}{What is it?} {134}{}{No way.} {135}{}{Great. Take this locket to Julianna. Tell her that I hope to see her soon.} {136}{}{It seems that I have fallen for a girl in Adytum. Because of the Regulators shooting us on sight, I can't get close to her.} {137}{}{How can I help?} {138}{}{Go on.} {139}{}{Tough break.} {140}{}{If you take this locket to Julianna, I would be in your debt.} {141}{}{Sure thing.} {142}{}{Find someone else.} {143}{}{With allies like you, who needs enemies? Good bye!} {144}{}{I think she loves me too, but I don't know. The Blades won't risk letting me try to break into Adytum.} {145}{}{Tough break.} {146}{}{Okay, I'll help.} {147}{}{Thank you! She sent me a note. We are going to meet at the Follower's place and get married.} {148}{}{Welcome back.} {149}{}{Thank you so much. We will stay here with the Followers now, where we can be happily married.}
Adytum (post-Mutant Invasion)
These Children of the Cathedral members were intended to appear in Adytum after the Super Mutant Invasion, a significant game event that never occurs in the final game. Each class has a shared dialog file.

I'm sure that is very nice. Maybe you can talk to one of my superiors about that. I'm kinda busy right now.} {127}{}{It is very dangerous here. Big, bad monsters took over this place. We are trying to save what we can before they come back.} {128}{}{No go! No go!} {129}{}{Uh, oh.} {130}{}{Bubye.} {131}{}{Okay. Suit yourself. When they get back here, you can be their dinner.} {132}{}{Me kill! Me kill!} {133}{}{Bubye.} {134}{}{You can try. I'm not sure you will get very far, though. Good luck to you.} {135}{}{Uh oh is right. They are nasty. We are trying to make them understand that people and monsters can live together.} {136}{}{Oh. OK.

I think my boss would like to hear more about that. Go look for Orfeo. He'll be able to reward you for your help.} {182}{}{For someone who comes in peace, you do an awful lot of killing. But those Rippers were causing quite a bit of trouble. Orfeo can reward your for your aid.} {183}{}{You kill harmless creatures which are the end result of man's destructive nature and then claim peace?} {184}{}{I'm sorry. They were ugly, so I shot them.} {185}{}{They were hurting people all over the place.} {186}{}{Now I'm going to kill you.} {187}{}{I still let you live. I think I better take you in to have you cleansed of these thoughts of destruction.} {188}{}{Funny. I thought I saw some of them out in the street trying to clean up the gangs.} {189}{}{They attacked the Blades?} {190}{}{What happened to the Adytum?} {191}{}{Die, scum!} {192}{}{Those losers are now no more.} {193}{}{That's a good thing. Well, goodbye.} {194}{}{And now, you won't be either.} {195}{}{That's where I know you from. It's payback time!} {196}{}{It's you again. I thought you would have learned by now.

What exactly do you do?} {109}{}{I'm trying to find a spy within your ranks, but I'm not having much luck. Can I ask you some questions?} {110}{}{Oh, well, I mostly study philosophy and stuff. I mean, if we're going to bring about peace, then we need a good grounding for it, right?} {111}{}{A worthwhile cause.} {112}{}{The only philosophy you need is a big gun!} {113}{}{Hmm. Okay. Well, I guess I'll talk to you later.} {114}{}{Whoa! Hey, I don't think I can help you.} {115}{}{Hey, it's exactly that kind of attitude that's causing all this trouble.

And anyhow, only scouts really get to go anywhere.} {125}{}{Well, just the scouts and the guards. The guards go and patrol a little bit once in a while. I wanted to be a guard but . . . well, I got my ass kicked in hand-to-hand combat, so I couldn't go.

I'm gone.} {110}{}{Perhaps I can listen to a song or two.} {111}{}{Can you teach me anything else?} {112}{}{Ah, we have here a student of life. In a case like this, I can teach you some herbalism, but training takes a while for little result.} {113}{}{Fine, just teach me.} {114}{}{Please, teach me what you can.} {115}{}{Sorry, I really don't have time for plants. Goodbye.} {116}{}{You need not be rude. Apologize now, or I won't teach you.} {117}{}{I am sorry. Will you please teach me?} {118}{}{Forget it.} {119}{}{That is better now.

May the future soften your heart and broaden your mind.} {122}{}{Very well, I will teach you the ways to survive.} {123}{}{You are an apt learner. May your trials be light. Go in peace.} {124}{}{You do not convince me. I think you seek to use my gifts for ill. Good evening.} {125}{}{Ah, a student of the arts is a rare thing in this world. Perhaps there is hope for you yet. Each song is long in time. Which would you like to hear?} {126}{}{In the Wake of the Shadow.} {127}{}{The Ballad of Aires.} {128}{}{In Remembrance of Artemis.} {129}{}{The Rising of Dawn's Chariot.} {130}{}{An astonishing piece of work.

Thank you.} {143}{}{I was hoping to learn something that may help me more.} {144}{}{You have no need of my talents. You have taught peaceful people the ways of war. I mourn for them now.}

You dead.} {120}{}{Me } {121}{}{. Me hep.} {122}{}{Me kill!} {123}{}{Me } {124}{}{. Me go.} {125}{}{You want to help? I think you will need to talk to Nicole or Jake if you want to help us. They have more time for dealing with slower people.} {126}{}{OK. Just stay out of trouble around here.} {127}{}{Do you see to end the evil of the Children?} {128}{}{Yes. I want to wipe out those scum.} {129}{}{No. I'd rather kill you wimps.} {130}{}{Who are these Children?} {131}{}{Why would I want to kill children?} {132}{}{Excellent! Go talk to Nicole and she will be able to tell you how you can help us.} {133}{}{The Children are an occult group who worship some dark god. Personally, I think there is something about them that reeks of evil.} {134}{}{I will kill them.} {135}{}{I don't know. They sound too strong for me.} {136}{}{What can I do to help?} {137}{}{Forget it! There is no way I will help you.} {138}{}{They are a strong lot, but I think with someone of your skills, you will be able to get in and help us destroy them.} {139}{}{I'll do it then.} {140}{}{No. I don't think I will help.} {141}{}{Suit yourself. If they take over the wastelands, don't say we didn't warn you.} {142}{}{If you talk to Nicole, she will be able to tell you more of what can be done to stop them. } {143}{}{Thank you. Goodbye.} {144}{}{Not children. We wouldn't think of harming them. No. These are the Children of the Cathedral. A nasty group of people.} {145}{}{In that case, sure - I'll waste them.} {146}{}{Oh. I thought you were talking about kids. Nevermind. I don't think I'll help.} {147}{}{What can you tell me about these Children?} {148}{}{We are the Followers of the Apocalypse. We are trying to bring peace to the wastelands.} {149}{}{Sounds like a good idea. Good luck with it.} {150}{}{How do you plan on doing that?} {151}{}{That seems highly unlikely.} {152}{}{We are working to bring about tolerance to those in the wastelands for those few unfortunates who have been mutated by man's destructive nature.} {153}{}{Good luck with that, then.} {154}{}{In all of history, we have never been able to get tolerance. Why do you think the War happened?} {155}{}{That's just a bunch of bull.} {156}{}{You are right in saying that we, as humans, have been close-minded. However, there is always hope.} {157}{}{Good luck to you, then.} {158}{}{I think you are right. Here, let me make you more open-minded with this.} {159}{}{Be that as it may, your opinion was not requested. Goodbye.} {160}{}{A cynic in our midsts. I am sure you have your reasons. Regardless, I am certain we can bring about some type of understanding.} {161}{}{Good luck to you then. Goodbye.} {162}{}{I've heard that the Children have been able to get some of our secrets. I wonder how that is happening?} {163}{}{I believe that there is a spy somewhere around here.} {164}{}{I know. I am selling your secrets to them.} {165}{}{I am sure you are just imagining things. How can they know anything?} {166}{}{Truly? I thought as much myself, but feared that I would never have been able to get much support on the theory.} {167}{}{Do you have any clues as to who it could be?} {168}{}{I'm glad to know that. Thanks for your time.} {169}{}{You are the double agent!!!} {170}{}{Not really. The only thing I can think of is that the person would have to have access to some information and have access to the outside. You might want to look to the initiates or scouts.} {171}{}{Thanks. Goodbye.} {172}{}{Nicole will be pleased, then, to know that I killed the agent.} {173}{}{You must be right. Thank you for setting me straight.} {174}{}{I think you are the double agent. Trying to trick me, I see. Well now you DIE!} {175}{}{Great job on wasting that agent.

That would be wonderful.} {179}{}{There you go. Maybe that will help you on your fighting.}

Heather was integral to the quest Find Children spy in the Followers, being said spy. Her absence renders the quest impossible, as well as making the good ending for the Followers inaccessible, despite being canon according to Fallout: New Vegas. HEATHER.MSG
# Heather is a female. She has a sweet, yet discerning quality about her. # She acts as though she is trying to hide something and does a really good # job of confusing the matter for people. Elusive and evasive. She will play # on anything that you give her to work with. {100}{}{You see Heather of the Follower's Scouts.} {101}{}{What are you doing here?} {102}{}{Dis!} # moronic line for This {103}{}{Go bye.} # moronic line for Good Bye. {104}{}{I'm just looking around.} {105}{}{I am here to kill you!} {106}{}{Just curious as to what is going on around here.} {107}{}{Really? And what might you be looking for?} {108}{}{I think I have already found her.} {109}{}{I am looking for a spy.} {110}{}{Nothing really. Just looking around.} {111}{}{Just information.} {112}{}{Thank you, but I am already spoken for. I think it is time for you to leave.} # "I am already spoken for" == "i am already dating someone else" {113}{}{Yes, the spy. I have heard of that bothersome pest. I really wish we could catch him.} # Spy is considered male {114}{}{I kept hearing that it was a female spy.} # Spy is considered female {115}{}{Have you heard anything about this spy?} # spy is considered male {116}{}{You are the spy!} # spy is considered female {117}{}{Good luck to you. Sorry I bothered you.} {118}{}{I bet it was the braggart Neil that said as much. I'll have to have a talk with him later.} # Neil is male {119}{}{You think that Neil is the spy?} # spy is male. Neil is male. {120}{}{Then who do you think the spy is?} # spy is male {121}{}{You sound a bit defensive. Any reason why?} {122}{}{I am almost sure of it. I just need some proof.} {123}{}{I will get you proof.} {124}{}{He seems like a nice person. I don't know.} {125}{}{Why do you think it is him?} {126}{}{Thank you. You don't know how much this means to me. Once you get proof, kill him.} {127}{}{What is there not to know? He has access to the Children. He works during the night when most are asleep. It has to be him.} # Children is short for Children of the Cathedral. Religous cult who believe in destroying # anyone who gets in there way or acts against thier wishes. They are really bad people. # consider Male. {128}{}{Ok, I will check into it.} {129}{}{Forget it. I think you are trying to divert me!} {130}{}{I am truly sorry that you think that way. I cannot have someone think I am a spy. I will remove you from service.} # Spy is female. "I will remove you from service" == "i am going to have to kill you now" {131}{}{He has access to the Children during the night. No one ever sees him on duty. It must be him.} # Children is short for Children of the Cathedral. Religous cult who believe in destroying # anyone who gets in there way or acts against thier wishes.

I think it may either be a guard or a scholar. They keep sneaking into the Children's Cathedral at night.} # Guard is considered male. Scholar is considered female. # Children is short for Children of the Cathedral. Religous cult who believe in destroying # anyone who gets in there way or acts against thier wishes. They are really bad people. # consider Male. {135}{}{Any other leads that you can think of?} # == is there any other information that you can think of? {136}{}{But I've heard talk that only the scouts do raids on the Children} # scouts is male # Children is short for Children of the Cathedral. Religous cult who believe in destroying # anyone who gets in there way or acts against thier wishes. They are really bad people. # consider Male. {137}{}{Ok. Thank you for your help.} {138}{}{Not really. Just that I think it is a male and probably a scholar or guard.} # is is refering to a male spy. Scholar and guard are male. {139}{}{Ok. Thank you for your help.} {140}{}{True. We scouts do many raids on the Children, and to much loss lately. This spy costs us dearly.} # scouts is male. spy is male. # Children is short for Children of the Cathedral.

Why would you do that?} {147}{}{Don't know. Just wondering.} {148}{}{Sounds like a good thought. I've noticed Peter never gets attacked much in the raids. I think he may be the one.} # Peter is male. She thinks that Peter may be the male spy. {149}{}{Ok, I will check into it.} {150}{}{Forget it. I think you are trying to divert me!} {151}{}{You think that it is me?} # it referring to the female spy. {152}{}{I'm sorry. I'm just a bit jumpy.} # under a bit of stress. {153}{}{Yes! Now you will die!} {154}{}{Then wonder somewhere else. I must get back to work.} # then think about it somewhere else {155}{}{I think he thinks I am the spy. But I'm not.} # spy is female {156}{}{Maybe he is right.} {157}{}{Why would he think that?} {158}{}{Because I am the new scout. I've only been here for about a year and the trouble started about five months ago.} # scout is female {159}{}{I think Neil may be right.} # Neil is male. right == correct. {160}{}{I think Neil might be the spy. I'll go check into it.} # spy is male. {161}{}{Then look elsewhere. This is no place for you.} {162}{}{If you need information, look to Nicole. She thinks she knows everything.} # Nicole is female. said in a snotty manner. {163}{}{I can be persuaded to tell you something that's going on.

Now go.} {171}{}{Trying to cheat me? I'll show you!} {172}{}{I'm sorry you feel that way. But, good day to you.} {173}{}{I need to get by somehow. Now, do you want in or not?} # do you want me to give you the information? {174}{}{Sure.} {175}{}{No way.} {176}{}{Nothing. Now leave.} {177}{}{Leave me. I am trying to get some rest.}
Jake
A Follower the player could spar with. He would have reacted to the completion of the Followers spy quest, in addition to another about delivering a package from the Gun Runners. JAKE.MSG.
{100}{}{You see Jake of the Followers.} {101}{}{You see a Follower of the Apocalypse.} {102}{}{Welcome, my friend! How might I help you today?} {103}{}{Me hep! Me hep!} {104}{}{I heard that you are a decent fighter. Let's find out.} {105}{}{I hear you need help. What's the problem?} {106}{}{What can you tell me about the Followers?} {107}{}{You want to help. I don't think you are good enough to help me out. Go talk to Neil.} {108}{}{I would love to fight you, but I am much too busy helping Nicole right now.} {109}{}{Figures. You looked like a wimp to me anyways.} {110}{}{Suit yourself. Good bye.} {111}{}{How did a wimp like you become second in command?} {112}{}{Hey. Just because I don't want to fight doesn't mean I'm a wimp. I just don't feel like it.} {113}{}{I was right. Just a wimp.} {114}{}{Some of us will use our brains to get further in this world. A lot can be settled with peace and thinking.} {115}{}{When are you going to use your brains then?} {116}{}{You're right. I'm sorry.} {117}{}{That's it. I'm not going to talk to you anymore.} {118}{}{That's better. Now. I have a problem with a spy around here. Will you help me?} {119}{}{Yes. What is it?} {120}{}{Fix it yourself if you are so great.} {121}{}{I just said we have a spy around here. I think it may be one of the guards that is the spy. Though it could be a scout. Those are the only two groups that have access to the Children.} {122}{}{Okay. I'll go get your spy and eliminate the problem.} {123}{}{Have any leads on this spy?} {124}{}{Forget it. I won't help you.} {125}{}{Thank you very much. Now go!} {126}{}{Nothing really. The only things I really know about is that a lot of low level information is getting to the Children. This is not good. Heather thinks it is either Neil or Peter.} {127}{}{Okay. I will go check on it.} {128}{}{Forget it. I won't help you.} {129}{}{I can't let you leave then.} {130}{}{I will then. Good bye!} {131}{}{We are having trouble with some of our information slipping out to the Children. I think it is a spy.} {132}{}{Okay. So, what is the problem?} {133}{}{Okay, I'll deal with this spy.} {134}{}{Have any leads yet?} {135}{}{Forget it. I won't help you.} {136}{}{Currently, I can't tell you anything. Good day.} {137}{}{I am trying to sleep. Don't bother me.} {138}{}{Hurry up and find that vile scum!} {139}{}{I knew it was Heather all along. She was deceitful from the start. I should have told everyone what I thought at first.} {140}{}{I never did learn anything from you. Your training was useless.} {141}{}{I have a package for you from Gabriel.} {142}{}{Hmm. I see. Thank you.} {143}{}{Get the hell out.} {144}{}{It's the hard way. It's always the hard way.}

NEIL.MSG
{100}{}{You see Neil, the head of the guard for the Followers.} {101}{}{You see Neil, the head of the guard for the Followers.} {102}{}{If you seek someone to talk to, talk to Peter. I'm trying to get some sleep.} {103}{}{Why are you here?} {104}{}{Hrr. Arrooo?} {105}{}{Nuh nuh.} {106}{}{KILL!!} {107}{}{I'm } {108}{}{. I was sent to look for you.} {109}{}{I'm } {110}{}{. And you are dead.} {111}{}{What can you tell me about the Followers?} {112}{}{I have come to offer my assistance.} {113}{}{I seek ways in which to instill peace upon this desolate wasteland.} {114}{}{I am sorry, but I can't understand you. Now, what are you doing here?} {115}{}{Nuh nuh.} {116}{}{Me Kill!!} {117}{}{Hep. Me hep.} {118}{}{If you are doing nothing, then I suggest that you leave. Now!} {119}{}{You wish to help? Maybe I can use you.} {120}{}{Yes. Me hep! Me hep!} {121}{}{No. No hep!} {122}{}{You are simple enough to find this person that others are too smart to find. There is a spy around here who is giving our secrets to the Children. Find the spy. Kill the spy. Go.} {123}{}{I thought as much. Be off with you.} {124}{}{Figures that Jake doesn't think that I can get the job done right. He's the only one who could have sent you. Then you know about the spy.} {125}{}{Jake didn't send me. One of your guards did.} {126}{}{I know some. Jake was very short with words.} {127}{}{What is this about a spy? Maybe I can help.} {128}{}{My guards are no fools. They sent you to the right person. There is a leak in here, and we need to find out where it is and seal it.} {129}{}{Have any leads?} {130}{}{I'm a fighter, not a plumber. If you have leaks, talk to someone else.} {131}{}{I think you are the leak. Die!!} {132}{}{Forget it. I'm nobody's lackey.} {133}{}{The only thing that we know so far is that the person has to have access to the Children's Cathedral. I think it may be one of our scouts.} {134}{}{Okay. I will check it out right now.} {135}{}{Are you sure it is not a guard?} {136}{}{Tough luck then. You'll never catch the person now.} {137}{}{I am quite certain. They only have access to the halls of the Followers. They are not allowed outside.} {138}{}{Then I don't know who it could be.} {139}{}{I'll look into the scouts then.} {140}{}{I think there is a cover-up here. You die!} {141}{}{That is why I am asking you to look around and see if you can find someone. Will you help?} {142}{}{Yes.} {143}{}{No.} {144}{}{Thank you. This means a lot to us.} {145}{}{Then I must detain you from warning anyone.} {146}{}{How he ever became second in command is beyond me. Since he was so scarce in words, I will fill you in. We have a leak who is feeding the Children some of our movement patterns.} {147}{}{Have any leads?} {148}{}{I'm a fighter, not a plumber. If you have leaks, talk to someone else.} {149}{}{I think you are the leak. Die!!} {150}{}{Forget it. I'm nobody's lackey.} {151}{}{You don't even know? I guess you wouldn't; most people in here don't. Someone is sneaking information of our movements to the Children. We need that person gone.} {152}{}{Have any leads?} {153}{}{I think you are the leak. Die!!} {154}{}{Forget it. I'm nobody's lackey.} {155}{}{How much are you willing to offer?} {156}{}{I don't have much money. How about 200 caps?} {157}{}{Sorry, I'm broke.} {158}{}{Your life.} {159}{}{Sounds fair to me.} {160}{}{Now I will end this leak in the Followers!} {161}{}{Tough luck then.} {162}{}{What would you like to know?} {163}{}{Who is the leader?} {164}{}{Why are you attacking the Children?} {165}{}{Where can I get some first aid?} {166}{}{Nothing. Just checking.} {167}{}{Nothing. Thank you.} {168}{}{Our leader is Nicole. Really nice person, but a bit flighty. Anything else you want to know?} {169}{}{Why are you attacking the Children?} {170}{}{Where can I get some healing?} {171}{}{Nothing. Just checking. *smack*} {172}{}{Nothing. Thank you.} {173}{}{The Children are not what they appear to be. They are hiding something. Something related to those Nightkin. Anything else?} {174}{}{Who is the leader?} {175}{}{Where can I get some healing?} {176}{}{Nothing. Just checking. *smack*} {177}{}{Nothing. Thank you.} {178}{}{There is the Children's healer, but I don't trust them. We also have a doctor or nurse on duty here at all times.

I have no need for you. Talk to Nicole if you wish to offer your services. Good night.} {190}{}{Then you will want to search out Nicole. She can help you better with that. Good evening.} {191}{}{Go find that spy. We need to keep our plans secret still longer.} {192}{}{Good job on finding and removing Heather her meddling nearly got everyone killed. I wish there was something more we could do.} {193}{}{Perhaps I can help you once more.} {194}{}{Good luck to you.} {195}{}{How so?} {196}{}{I can train the Followers in some skills for war. Maybe your chances will improve.} {197}{}{I can leave. Good bye.} {198}{}{That would be wonderful. Thank you.} {199}{}{Now you are a bit more prepared.

Will do.} {114}{}{Forget it!} {115}{}{Fine. Get out then!} {116}{}{Look, we have a breach in security. We need to find this breach and end it.} {117}{}{Ok.

{100}{}{You see Rae.} {101}{}{You see a super mutant.} {102}{}{You don't belong here.} {103}{}{(seems confused and sad) I believe I do, but.. why are you here?} {104}{}{Neither do you.} {105}{}{Uh.. yes I do. The master is having me scout around in disguise to check our security.} {106}{}{Yes I do, I'm here to kill you.} {107}{}{Okay, I'm leaving.} {108}{}{huh.} {109}{}{(sigh) What do you want now?} {110}{}{I'm lost.. can you show me how to get to the master? I need to kill him.} {111}{}{Nothing. Goodbye.} {112}{}{To see what you look like with all your skin ripped off your body, you mutant scum.} {113}{}{What's wrong with you?} {114}{}{great oogly moogly.} {115}{}{I'm here to... contemplate the oneness of the master.} {116}{}{Of course. The unity brings peace. May I ask where you are from?} {117}{}{I am as well. I made the pilgrimage from far away to see the master with my own eyes.} {118}{}{I have much to learn. How does one gain an audience with the master?} {119}{}{I did that yesterday. Today I'm contemplating what the master would look like if I lit him on fire and roasted marshmallows over his putrid carcass.} {120}{}{I think the master is insane.} {121}{}{I'm from... somewhere ..else.} {122}{}{What a coincidence! So am I.} {123}{}{Where?} {124}{}{I'm from a vault... I'm a pure strain human.} {125}{}{What, are you an imbecile?} {126}{}{Where are you from?} {127}{}{(whispers) I'm from a vault... I'm a pure strain human.} {128}{}{I'd rather not say. Goodbye.} {129}{}{A small village to the north of here.} {130}{}{Why should I tell you? You're just a lackey for the 'Man'.} {131}{}{Why would you tell me that? I should take you before the master...} {132}{}{But you won't} {133}{}{You're welcome to try.} {134}{}{Well, I should shove my gun down your throat and pull the trigger!} {135}{}{Please don't.} {136}{}{I know why you're in so much pain.} {137}{}{I'll be going now.} {138}{}{You're right... if only I could clear my head. There's something...} {139}{}{I know why you can't clear your head.} {140}{}{The master keeps you from thinking clearly. Thinking disturbs the unity.} {141}{}{The master is the reason you are in such pain.} {142}{}{Hey, I've got an idea - let's cut open the master and see what's inside!!!} {143}{}{Tell me! Please!!} {144}{}{You used to be human, too. The master dipped you in the FEV virus and mutated you.} {145}{}{Sorry, I can't.} {146}{}{Only the master can tell you everything.} {147}{}{Only the master can tell you everything. But you'd better talk to him quick, 'cause I'm on my way to kill him.} {148}{}{Sorry, got to go.} {149}{}{I should kill you for taunting me!} {150}{}{I have a better idea - help me destroy the master for doing this to you.} {151}{}{No, you should kill the master for doing this to you. I'm on my way to do just that... would you like to join me?} {152}{}{Why? I'm not the one who turned you into a mutant!} {153}{}{You're welcome to try.} {154}{}{No thanks. Bye!} {155}{}{Let's twist his head until his eyes pop out.} {156}{}{You will never kill the master. He cannot die.} {157}{}{You're right. I'd better get out of here.} {158}{}{We'll see about that.} {159}{}{Hmmm. I wonder how he'll continue to live when his unity is destroyed...} {160}{}{That can't be.. the master.. protects... unifies...} {161}{}{Well, you're a living example of 'unification', my friend. I know, I've seen the process. I'm here to stop the master from 'unifying' anyone else.} {162}{}{How does it feel to be protected and unified?} {163}{}{Yeah, he protects himself by controlling everyone else.} {164}{}{I've had enough of this. Goodbye.} {165}{}{Leave now or I will be forced to deal with you.} {166}{}{AAAUGH!!! (Grabs his head in pain and confusion) I.. can't...} {167}{}{That's right, your friend the master stripped you of everything you had in this world, including your humanity.} {168}{}{You know that it's true... that's why you're so confused. You're fighting the mutation. Help me avenge you by destroying the master!} {169}{}{Sure you can. C'mon, let's kill the master, it will be fun.} {170}{}{I'd better leave.} {171}{}{I'm sorry you're in such pain, but it's the master's fault.} {172}{}{I will pull his eye out!! I'll tear his slimy little head from its cables!!!! You, ...get out of here... I'll take care of the master.} {173}{}{Great!!} {174}{}{Thanks for the offer, but I'd like to do the job myself. Would you like to help?} {175}{}{I'm going to stay here. I have some unfinished business.}

You see Zack Barstow, an Initiate of the Childred of the Cathedral. [sic] Welcome to the Children of the Cathedral. How might I help you today? Urrrooo? What is the meaning of the universe? I'm hurt pretty bad. Think you can help me? How do you fix the water pump? Can you tell me something about this place? I am ill-suited for that. Perhaps if you talk to Laura, she will be willing give you the information you need to know. Oh, fixing water pumps is easy. It's just a flag. I don't have the tools to assist you with that problem. Please talk to one of my superiors. Oh, that. That's just a flag. Please consult with Laura. I have told you all I know. |

The player happens upon a sacked caravan and recognizes the FEV-mutated corpse of the last person sent from the vault. INVADED.MSG
{101}{}{The caravan traders didn't have a chance. They're all dead.} {102}{}{It looks like the mutants were heavily armed.

{100}{}{You see a weary traveler.} {101}{}{You see Lance, one of the guards from Shady Sands' long-range patrols.} {102}{}{Just stay where you are.

What brings you out in the wastes? Where are you from?} {117}{}{I could ask the same thing about you.} {118}{}{Sorry friend, but I get the impression that's a rather dangerous question to answer.} {119}{}{Know any place good to get supplies?} {120}{}{I'm from a Vault. Lucky Vault 13!} {121}{}{Waaah?} {122}{}{Hello, stranger. I'd recommend that you keep on moving, if you know what's good for you.} # TRANSLATION NOTE # After line 123, the player-character's name is inserted by the code, and # then line 124 or line 131 is added. {123}{}{Hello, } {124}{}{. I thought you were our friend when you rescued Tandi, but now I hear some real nasty rumors about you. Are they true?} {125}{}{People say all sorts of things. Who cares?} {126}{}{I ain't your friend. And if you make a wrong move, I'll spill your innards. You got that?} {127}{}{What kind of rumors?} {128}{}{Yeah. They're all true. Now strip down so I can take what you've got.} {129}{}{Maybe I've done a few things I regret, but you should know better than believing that crap.} {130}{}{. Am I glad it's you and not some raider! How's it going! I'm Lance, one of the guards over in Shady Sands. Sorry we gave you such a hard time when you first came to town!} {131}{}{Hi Lance, what's up?} {132}{}{Hi Lance. I used to be a nice person, but then life screwed me. Now strip down and hand over your stuff.} {133}{}{Don't sweat it, Lance. What are you doing out here alone?} {134}{}{Fine. But I'll remember this.} {135}{}{Up yours.} {136}{}{Spare me the idle threats, boy. I kill children like you in my sleep. Hand over your belongings, and I may let you live.} {137}{}{If you really think I'm a threat, go ahead and kill me.} {138}{}{Let's make a wrong move. I always wanted to see what my innards look like.} {139}{}{That was then, this is now. What have you done for us lately? I think you better leave before I get ornery.} {140}{}{We like it too. Especially when you're not in it. Now get!} {141}{}{Man, you musta spent too much time in the Glow!} {142}{}{I don't know what a water chip is. Sorry.} {143}{}{It's an electronic device used in water purification systems.} {144}{}{How's the radscorpion problem?} {145}{}{The raiders got her. I'm part of one of the search parties. I think she's at the raider camp south of Shady Sands, but the Khans have the place sealed up like a fortress.} {146}{}{Can you take me to Shady Sands?} {147}{}{Can you take me to the Khans?} {148}{}{We'll have to find a way to get her back.} {149}{}{Thanks for the information. Good luck with the search.} {150}{}{Uh, yeah, but we're handling it a little better since the Khans got their bloody nose. I understand we have you to thank for that. We're grateful.} {151}{}{I wouldn't mind seeing a little gratitude.} {152}{}{Thanks. Anything else I can do?} {153}{}{Let me know if they bother you again.} {154}{}{We're doing okay.} {155}{}{Are you sure about that?} {156}{}{That's great.} {157}{}{I haven't a clue. Idiot.} {158}{}{Okay, I'll trust you. I'm from Shady Sands. We're a community not far from here.} {159}{}{Could you take me there?} {160}{}{What's the town like?} {161}{}{Any water chips there?} {162}{}{Sounds like a nice place.} {163}{}{Well, you keep your secrets, I'll keep mine. Good bye.} {164}{}{Maybe it is. A pity, though.} {165}{}{I've been to Junktown. I think it's southwest of here, but I've been traveling for so many days it's hard to tell.} {166}{}{Yeah, right. All the Vaults were destroyed, as far as I know. Tell me another one.} {167}{}{That's not what I was asking . . . oh, never mind!} {168}{}{That's not an answer. They call you assassin, thief, grave-robber. They say you'll kill anyone who gets in your path. Is it true?} {169}{}{Well, I haven't killed you yet, so obviously someone's lying.} {170}{}{Pretty much. I've had my share of good times.} {171}{}{I've made my share of enemies. I've left enough of them alive to slander me.} {172}{}{I've killed quite a few people, yeah. I always had a reason.} {173}{}{They call you assassin, thief, grave-robber. They say you'll kill anyone who gets in your path. Is it true?} {174}{}{Okay, I'll do it. But if you keep acting like a raider, you'll die like a raider.} {175}{}{I'll give you the benefit of the doubt, for now. But a man's only as good as his reputation, and yours could use some work. I hope you'll do something about it before we meet again.} {176}{}{Just heading back to town. You wanna come along? I could use the company.} {177}{}{Sure.} {178}{}{Not today.} {179}{}{A little bit of scavenging. We've found a few abandoned raider bases that haven't been picked clean; I suspect they've been attacking each other. We can always use more ammo and chems.} {180}{}{I'm going to regret this.} {181}{}{Get out of my sight before I come to my senses.} {182}{}{We're still seeing a few; they must be migrating from the high desert or the Glow. But it's a lot better now than it was last year, thanks to you.} {183}{}{Sounds good. Bye.} {184}{}{Sure. Let's go.} {185}{}{Man, I must be out of my mind. But I'll take you. Let's go.} {186}{}{Have a good suicide, friend. And for what it's worth, good luck.} {187}{}{I'm heading out. You take care of yourself.} {188}{}{Well, I don't have much, but what's mine is yours.} {189}{}{Not that I can think of. I'm heading out. You take care of yourself.} {190}{}{We will. I'm heading out. You take care of yourself.} {191}{}{Well, okay. Let's go.} {192}{}{I won't lead a possible enemy home. If you do make your way to Shady Sands, keep your nose clean.} {193}{}{Small. We make our living herding Brahmin. It's pretty rough country around here, and pasture land is rather precious.} {194}{}{In a Brahmin herding backwater? You've gotta be crazy! There's probably not a working piece of electronics within two hundred miles.} {195}{}{You got a point. I think we should play things cautious and go our separate ways. If I were you, I'd do something about those stories. Unless you like people hating and mistrusting you.} {196}{}{I should kill you right now. You cross my path again, and I will. Now get.} {197}{}{Let's go.} {198}{}{Let me guess, someone told you about my snoring. Oh well. You take care of yourself.} {199}{}{It is. Well, I'm heading out. You take care of yourself.} {200}{}{Just you stay where you are. I don't know if you're in league with those mutants, but if you are, I'll kill you.} {201}{}{What mutants?} {202}{}{Who are you?} {203}{}{What happened to you?} {204}{}{Okay, that's cool.} {205}{}{Ru-huh?} {206}{}{The mutants overran Shady Sands. Must of use are dead. I guess it's only a matter of time before they get the rest of us.} {207}{}{I don't care what you say, what you ask. We're all dead! All of us! And I thought the raiders and the rad scorpions were bad . . . they were nothing! Ha! Ha ha ha!} {208}{}{Shut up! I don't feel like talking! Talking accomplishes nothing! Talking just bores the hell out of me . . .}
Lone Raider
This is another cut encounter from the area surrounding Shady Sands. He seems to be the Khan equivalent to Lance. LONERAID.MSG
{100}{}{Just because you've got a weapon drawn doesn't mean that I'm gonna give you what you want . . .} {101}{}{You've beaten me! What more do you want, dammit!} {102}{}{I don't got nothing to say! Talk is for the weak!} {103}{}{I don't know who you are, but I'll give you a fair warning: anyone who messes with the Khans, dies messy.} {104}{}{You know, if you really thought you were stronger, you'd kill me.} {105}{}{Too bad. I'm messing with you!} {106}{}{Fine. Let's not mess with each other, and we'll be happy.} {107}{}{I surrender. Please don't kill me!} {108}{}{Hngrrr!} {109}{}{Huh?} {110}{}{Hail brother Khan! How goes the hunt? Have many weaklings died today?} {111}{}{Hail sister Khan! How goes the hunt? Have many weaklings died today?} {112}{}{I will save my boasts for the campfire, but I have many tales to tell!} {113}{}{I have seen much blood and taken much plunder.} {114}{}{Not bad. How about you?} {115}{}{I've done better . . .} {116}{}{You are an enemy of the Khans! You attack our warriors and take our women! Give me a reason why I shouldn't cut out your heart!} {117}{}{Cut the bravado. Where's Tandi? Tell me, or you die!} {118}{}{Can't think of anything. Let's fight!} {119}{}{Because we'll both live if you don't try.} {120}{}{I'm in no condition to fight. I surrender.} {121}{}{Are you one of them? One of the mutants?} {122}{}{What do you know about mutants?} {123}{}{Yeah, I'm a mutant!} {124}{}{Do I look like a mutant to you?} {125}{}{No.} {126}{}{Perhaps. If you wish to fight, I'll fight. If you wish to go in peace, you have my word as a Khan that I will not attack.} {127}{}{Let's fight.} {128}{}{Let's not fight.} {129}{}{Word of a Khan? What a joke!} {130}{}{You are too strong for me, and I am tired by many days in the wastes. I do not wish to die. Though it shames me, I surrender.} {131}{}{I agree. I give my word that you may go in peace, provided that you do not provoke me. Do not trouble me again.} {132}{}{I don't want anything that belongs to a coward, including your life! Get out of my sight!} {133}{}{You stupid animal. I shall enjoy killing you.} {134}{}{Uh, yes . . .} {135}{}{I shall enjoy hearing them. Farewell, brother!} {136}{}{I shall enjoy hearing them. Farewell, sister!} {137}{}{Really? Then I must have it for my own!} {138}{}{Yes, I have heard that fortune heavily favors you. It is for that reason alone that I do not challenge you for your spoils. Farewell, my brother! May we next meet side by side in battle.} {139}{}{Yes, I have heard that fortune heavily favors you. It is for that reason alone that I do not challenge you for your spoils. Farewell, my sister! May we next meet side by side in battle.} {140}{}{I am tired and weary from a journey many days longer than I expected. Rad scorpions killed my companions. I long for the comforts of the camp and the healing caress of our women.} {141}{}{May fortune again find favor with you. Farewell, my brother.} {142}{}{May fortune again find favor with you. Farewell, my sister.} {143}{}{They have destroyed Shady Sands. They kill anyone in their path. I never dreamt such ferocity existed. We are all doomed . . .} {144}{}{Murdering dog!} {145}{}{No, but it is hard to tell. I have heard that they cloak themselves in night, that they cloud men's minds, and take the form of beautiful women! We are all doomed!} {146}{}{That is good. I long to avenge our dead, and even the dead of Shady Sands. Any mutant that crosses my path will die! Go forth, friend! Go forth and kill! Death to the mutants!} {147}{}{You will die for those words!}

Can you fix me up?} {107}{}{Can you teach me about medicine?} {108}{}{Yes, I see that you are suffering from some damage. This may take some time. Would you like me to try to mend your wounds?} {109}{}{Uh huh.} {110}{}{Nuh uh.} {111}{}{Yes, please.} {112}{}{No, thank you.} {113}{}{There you go. That should have you all set. Please be more careful out there.} {114}{}{You're good at that. Can you teach me about trauma care?} {115}{}{Okay. Thank you.} {116}{}{I can teach you a little. But it will take several hours. Are you willing to stay?} {117}{}{Yes.} {118}{}{Sorry, too busy.} {119}{}{You are a very good student. I hope you remain on our side. Good bye.} {120}{}{As you wish. Good luck out there.} {121}{}{I can teach you a little, but not much. It will take some time. Are you willing to stay?} {122}{}{Yes.} {123}{}{I'm sorry, but I lack extra time.} {124}{}{You are an excellent student. Good luck to you.} {125}{}{Nothing right now. Thanks though.}
Thinker Nightkin
A peaceful, human-friendly faction of the Nightkin. The Vault Dweller could have joined them. THSUPMUT.MSG
{100}{}{You see Therax, a Thinker Nightkin.} {101}{}{You see Justin, a Thinker Nightkin.} {102}{}{You see Sereine, a Thinker Nightkin.} {103}{}{You see Dolkarn, a Thinker Nightkin.} {104}{}{You see Hort, a Thinker Nightkin.} {105}{}{You see Chris, a Thinker Nightkin.} {106}{}{You see Jaunita, a Thinker Nightkin.} {107}{}{You see Lesley, a Thinker Nightkin.} {108}{}{You see Renfield, a Thinker Nightkin.} {109}{}{You see Timothy, a Thinker Nightkin.} {110}{}{Welcome Oh Punt One.

Come with me, and I shall take you to the job.} {116}{}{That was not a request. Your presence will be made.} {117}{}{Are you not the one who seeks to bring peace to the wastelands?} {118}{}{Yes, however, I don't see how in aiding you how that will happen.} {119}{}{No. I prefer mass destruction.} {120}{}{We believe that if everyone, mutants and humans, could learn to work together, then a great many problems could be resolved.} {121}{}{Sounds promising. Count me in.} {122}{}{Forget it.} {123}{}{Something doesn't sound right about this.} {124}{}{Everything is perfectly fine. Perhaps it is the limited scope of your cranium which deters your advancement in thought.} {125}{}{You are probably correct. Count me in.} {126}{}{Mayhaps. Let me inspect your skull.} {127}{}{If that is your desire, then you shall have your fill.} {128}{}{Welcome back. You shall now assist us.}
Uthern
Super Mutant leader. He seems to have been split into two characters that he was an early version of: the Lieutenant and Viscious. UTHERN.MSG
{100}{}{You see before you Uthern, leader of the Super Mutants.} {101}{}{Normie! How dare you enter the confines of your betters?} {102}{}{Huh?} {103}{}{Scum like you could never be better than humans!} {104}{}{Die Mutie!!} {105}{}{Really? You claim yourself better, but what proof do you have?} {106}{}{If you consider yourself one better than the rest, you run into the fallacy of over generalization.} {107}{}{It's a wonder your race survived as long as it has. I will start with you in the cleansing.} {108}{}{You only prove my point by using inane comments as such. I personally would not wish you in my sight, but my master would have words with you.} {109}{}{Show me your master.} {110}{}{Try these words -- Drop dead!} {111}{}{Surely one of your intellect can see that such things will solve nothing.} {112}{}{With pleasure.} {113}{}{Are you claiming that talk will solve nothing? You are more foolish than I thought.} {114}{}{Though you are foolish, I was referring to your manner of delivering words.} {115}{}{Ah, the fool finally realizes something.} {116}{}{Words will only do so much. This will solve more.} {117}{}{I begin to think you may have a bit of superior blood in you yet. Let me find out for certain.} {118}{}{He does indeed, for death shall be your saving grace.} {119}{}{The simplest of proofs for you. I am smarter, stronger, and quicker than you are. Would you care for a test of my skills?} {120}{}{No, thanks. I believe you.} {121}{}{You forgot arrogant, stupid and ugly.} {122}{}{Sure. Let's see what you can do.} {123}{}{Good. Would you like a chance at gaining greater powers?} {124}{}{You bet!} {125}{}{No way!} {126}{}{I'm not sure about this.} {127}{}{Die!} {128}{}{Then i will take you to my master.} {129}{}{It almost seems a pity. No matter, this won't take long.} {130}{}{Offered all the power in the world and still frightened. I will help you with your decision.} {131}{}{Comments such as those only prove how much more intelligent i am than you. Now, you shall pay for your insolence!} {132}{}{Do you accept credit cards, or only caps?} {133}{}{Never!!} {134}{}{Sorry, I'm a little low on caps right now. Can I get a raincheck?} {135}{}{What? I think I can generalize this much -- you are coming with me now.} {136}{}{How nice to see you again. I was told that you were roaming around here. I have orders to bring you in.}
