[edit] Background

Not much is told about him and his background but what can be deduced from the child at heart perk choice when talking to him, he probably got the adult part of his brain taken out by Tobar the Ferryman when he went to collect seeds from the mother punga plant.

[edit] Daily schedule

He can be found wandering inside the outer walls of the Ark & Dove Cathedral.

[edit] Notes

  • He appears to have a spiritual connection with punga fruit
  • Croatoa will not become hostile like the unnamed tribals at the cathedral if you side with Desmond during Thought Control, but will if he sees you attack any other tribals.
  • If the player has the Child at Heart perk [1] or passes an easy Speech check they can get the Fertilizer Shovel from him.
  • From his responses, it can be seen that he may actually be a bit enlightened thanks to keeping an open mind and a peaceful philosophy unlike any of the other tribals.

[edit] Appearances

Croatoa appears only in the Fallout 3 add-on Point Lookout.

[edit] Behind the scenes

His name is likely a reference to a colony on Roanoke Island (in present day North Carolina) that seemingly vanished in 1590. Later colonists discovered the word 'Croatoan' carved into a fencepost in the abandoned colony, possibly indicating that the group left for natively populated Croatoan Island to the south. Their fate was never determined, however, and remains a mystery to this day.
