GREETING

Neutral 50
|
What have you done? Get away from me!

|
GREETING
|
Neutral 50
|
It's unusual to see a new face here. Are you a soldier, or a scientist?
|
2
|
GREETING
|
Anger 50
|
Your organization will doom all of us.

What can I help you with?

VMS03IgnacioArchimedesIsAWeapon
|
You think ARCHIMEDES is a weapon they built here.
|
Neutral 50
|
Yes. And the technology they have in this facility is like nothing I've seen. Some of it reminds me of Enclave equipment, but more advanced.
|
5
|
Neutral 50
|
A weapon based upon it would be catastrophic, no matter who claimed it.
|
6
|
Neutral 50
|
It's no wonder the Brotherhood wouldn't give it up.
|
7
|
VMS03IgnacioDivertedPower
|
I diverted power to the grid.
|
Neutral 50
|
I saw that on the monitors here. And you sent it to everyone. Very admirable.
|
8
|
Neutral 50
|
Now that the NCR has more or less what they want, hopefully their curiosity about the plant is satisfied and they'll dig no deeper.
|
9
|
Neutral 50
|
The Followers will be grateful. Here, take these, as a parting gift. I hope you'll find them useful.
|
10
|
I diverted power to the grid.
|
Neutral 50
|
I saw that on the monitors here. And you sent it to Freeside, where power is in short supply. A respectable decision.
|
11
|
Neutral 50
|
Now that the NCR has more or less what they want, hopefully their curiosity about the plant is satisfied and they'll dig no deeper.
|
12
|
Neutral 50
|
The Followers will be grateful. Here, take these, as a parting gift. I hope you'll find them useful.
|
13
|
I diverted power to the grid.
|
Neutral 50
|
I saw that on the monitors here. It's strange, but I can't find where on the grid the power is being sent to.
|
14
|
Neutral 50
|
Nevertheless, hopefully the NCR's curiosity is satisfied now that the plant's output is improved. Here, accept these, for your efforts.
|
15
|
VMS03IgnacioDrifter
|
More of a drifter.
|
Neutral 50
|
I see. Then you must have some special business here, for them to have let you through.
|
16
|
VMS03IgnacioInterestScientific
|
My interest in this place is scientific.
|
Neutral 50
|
Then we have that in common. Whom do you typically work with?
|
17
|
VMS03IgnacioKeepPeace
|
I just do what's necessary to keep the peace.
|
Neutral 50
|
That's reassuring, although many who've made that claim to the Followers of the Apocalypse over the years have had less than pure intentions.
|
18
|
Neutral 50
|
But if it's really as you say, then take my advice. This installation carries with it dangers that no one here has realized.
|
19
|
Neutral 50
|
Take care what you do here, and who you listen to. Some things are best left buried with the old world.
|

|
23
|
VMS03IgnacioMoreAboutFollowers
|
Tell me more about the Followers of the Apocalypse.
|
Neutral 50
|
Humanity lost many things after the war. Methods of agriculture, techniques for survival.
|
24
|
Neutral 50
|
We took it upon ourselves to piece together this knowledge and bring it back to them.
|
25
|
VMS03IgnacioNCRDoesntKnow
|
The NCR doesn't know about the weapon?
|
Neutral 50
|
Not yet. By some miracle they've hired an imbecile to try and decipher the systems here.
|
26
|
Neutral 50
|
He's spent months working at one console trying to get the solar reflectors to track the sun.
|
27
|
Happy 50
|
What he doesn't know is that the only thing the console controls is the plant's intercom system.
|
28
|
Disgust 50
|
I tried to tell him, but he insisted that the largest console had to be the most important. Still, it's only a matter of time.
|
29
|
VMS03IgnacioNCREnlistedMe
|
The NCR asked me to help increase the plant's power output.
|
Neutral 50
|
Then I would say do it. As long as the power of this plant is committed to the regional grid and not to a weapon, we are safe.
|
30
|
Neutral 50
|
If you are the one to restore output, then you can route the power where you choose, and they'll never be the wiser.
|
31
|
Neutral 50
|
I can't get you past the security in the tower, but I can be of some help.
|
32
|
Neutral 50
|
I've discovered a password for one of the mirror control terminals outside. You'll need it.
|
33
|
The NCR asked me to help increase the plant's power output.
|
Neutral 50
|
They're playing you for a fool. You'll die in that tower, just like their soldiers did. Why do you think they haven't taken care of this themselves?
|
34
|
VMS03IgnacioNCRWantsHelp
|
They're looking for help getting this plant running.
|
Neutral 50
|
Interesting. Forgive me for prying, but I'm curious. Are you with a particular group?
|
35
|
VMS03IgnacioNotYourConcern
|
That's not your concern.
|
Neutral 50
|
Interesting. Forgive me for prying, but I'm curious. Are you with a particular group?
|
36
|
VMS03IgnacioOverloaded
|
I overloaded the plant. No one will be able to use it to power a weapon.
|
Neutral 50
|
So I saw. Shame to let the energy go to waste, but on the other hand, now we can rest easy. Here, accept these, for your efforts.
|
37
|
VMS03IgnacioPeace
|
Peace.
|
Neutral 50
|
That's reassuring, although many who've made that claim to the Followers of the Apocalypse over the years have had less than pure intentions.
|
38
|
Neutral 50
|
But if it's really as you say, then take my advice. This installation carries with it dangers that no one here has realized.
|

VMS03IgnacioRivasTopic000
|
It'll be more fun if we keep it a mystery. Besides, I'm more interested in you.
|
Neutral 50
|
You're right. I'm sorry. That imbecile in the next room has me on edge. I used to be more fun.
|
44
|
Neutral 50
|
I'm still passionate about my work though. Otherwise I wouldn't be here.
|
45
|
Neutral 50
|
I'm in the Followers of the Apocalypse. How about you?
|
46
|
VMS03IgnacioRivasTopic001
|
Where are the Followers based around here?
|
Neutral 50
|
We're scattered, mostly. We go where we're needed. Our largest presence is in Freeside at Old Mormon Fort.
|
47
|
Neutral 50
|
Other than that, I know Dr. Usanagi set up a practice near the Crimson Caravan. And a man we trained is operating out of the Aerotech building.
|
48
|
Neutral 50
|
Another man, Tom Anderson, was looking into water supply problems in Westside. But that was a while ago.
|
49
|
VMS03IgnacioRivasTopic002
|
Do the Followers work together with the NCR?
|
Neutral 50
|
We did, for a time. But our goals differ. The NCR only cares to expand their wealth and their reach.
|
50
|
Neutral 50
|
For us, territorial boundaries mean nothing. And prosperity has to be for everyone, not just citizens of the NCR.
|
51
|
Neutral 50
|
So a parting was inevitable. While the NCR pushes east, we clean up the mess they leave behind. Try to provide some stability.
|
52
|
VMS03IgnacioRivasTopic003
|
Go on.
|
Neutral 50
|
Other things weren't lost, but were blocked from our collective memory. Knowledge of what we're capable of, and how things spiral out of control.
|
53
|
Neutral 50
|
It's in our nature to want to forget truths that keep us awake at night.
|
54
|
Neutral 50
|
And for that reason it's all the more important that the Followers walk the wastes to remind people of them.
|
55
|
VMS03IgnacioRivasTopic004
|
I have another question.
|
Neutral 50
|
By all means.
|
56
|
VMS03IgnacioRivasTopic005
|
The Brotherhood of Steel knew about ARCHIMEDES?
|
Neutral 50
|
I would think you'd know better than I. But perhaps they kept their operation here a secret, even from members of their own order.
|
57
|
The Brotherhood of Steel knew about ARCHIMEDES?
|
Neutral 50
|
They weren't here for me to ask, but I doubt they were here for electricity.
|
58
|
The Brotherhood of Steel knew about ARCHIMEDES?
|
Neutral 50
|
When the NCR first came here, it was under Brotherhood control. They usually steer clear of one another, but something here changed their minds.
|
59
|
Neutral 50
|
The Brotherhood's interest in Pre-War technology has always been in weapons. It's likely they were trying to reclaim ARCHIMEDES when the NCR arrived.
|
60
|
VMS03IgnacioRivasTopic006
|
Why are you still here?
|
Neutral 50
|
Keeping watch, mostly. Trying to make sure the dangers of this plant are minimized.
|
61
|
VMS03IgnacioSoldier
|
I'm a soldier.
|
Neutral 50
|
Well that explains it. NCR? Who do you fight for? {Playing his cards close to the vest.}
|
62
|
VMS03IgnacioTryNotToGetInvolved
|
I try not to get involved.
|
Neutral 50
|
Ah, but there's no avoiding it. You can only outrun the choice for so long.
|
63
|
Neutral 50
|
Take now, for instance. You are inside a facility with lost technology, some of it very dangerous.
|
64
|
Neutral 50
|
Unless you turn and leave right now, you'll be very much involved in the lives of people you've never seen or met.
|
65
|
VMS03IgnacioWantWhatYouWant
|
I want what you want.
|
Neutral 50
|
That's reassuring, although many who've made that claim over the years have had less than pure intentions.
|
66
|
Neutral 50
|
But if it's really as you say, then take my advice. This installation carries with it dangers that no one here has realized.

|
68
|
VMS03IgnacioWar
|
War.
|
Disgust 50
|
That's... an unfortunate mistake.
|
69
|
Neutral 50
|
As a Follower of the Apocalypse, I've studied it all my life, but I'll never understand how people don't foresee what lies ahead on that path.
|
70

|
72
|
VMS03IgnacioWhatMoreThanAPlant
|
What more is there to this place than a power plant?
|
Neutral 50
|
I don't entirely know. Our records on the company that built this place suggest that their dealings were not only in energy, but also in weapons.
|
73
|
Neutral 50
|
And I've seen equipment here marked with symbols used by the Pre-War military. Targeting computers. Shock sensors.
|
74
|
Neutral 50
|
A codeword comes up repeatedly in the papers I've looked through here. ARCHIMEDES.
|
75
|
VMS03IgnacioWhereRoutePower
|
Where should I route the power?
|
Neutral 50
|
Oh, the NCR has their own designs for it, no doubt. But resist the urge to send it only to the thriving communities.
|
76
|
Neutral 50
|
The need for power is great everywhere. Distributing it evenly is the most rational and humane choice.
|
77
|
VMS03IgnacioWhyAreYouHere
|
Why are you here?
|
Neutral 50
|
I was sent here when we saw that the NCR had taken it. We have no record of the facility, but its original builders were cause for concern.
|
78
|
Neutral 50
|
I'm to determine the threat level of this place and do everything in my power to prevent the revival of any dangerous Pre-War technology.
|
79
|
Neutral 50
|
The NCR let me stay because they are desperate for answers about this place, but I've kept them in the dark.
|
80
|
Why are you here?
|
Neutral 50
|
I'm a visiting scholar. Solar power technology may be important to our future and I was sent to research it.
|
81
|
VMS03IgnacioWhyTrustMe
|
Why would you trust me with this?
|
Neutral 50
|
I'm a man of letters. I'd be torn to pieces by the security system they have in that tower. I'd never reach the mainframe.
|
82
|
Neutral 50
|
But eventually the NCR will, or if not them, Caesar's Legion. They will use this place for war.
|
83
|
Neutral 50
|
Because the possibility exists you might do anything else, you're the only choice I have.
|
84
|
VMS03IgnacioWithBrotherhood
|
I'm in the Brotherhood of Steel.
|
Neutral 50
|
The Brotherhood? I never thought I'd say it, but I'm glad you're here.
|
85
|
Neutral 50
|
I'm a member of the Followers of the Apocalypse, and for once we might want the same thing.
|
86
|
Neutral 50
|
This place houses technology beyond anything I've seen. I'm afraid it could be dangerous if either of the warring factions here learns how to use it.
|
87
|
I'm in the Brotherhood of Steel.
|
Neutral 50
|
The Brotherhood? I never thought I'd say it, but I'm glad you're here. For once our organizations may want the same thing.
|

Neutral 50
|
This place houses technology beyond anything I've seen. I'm afraid it could be dangerous if either of the warring factions here learns how to use it.
|
89
|
VMS03IgnacioWithLegion
|
I serve Caesar.
|
Disgust 50
|
Then may you die in his service. I have nothing to say to you.
|
90
|
VMS03IgnacioWithNCR
|
I'm with the NCR.
|
Neutral 50
|
That makes sense. It is their facility, after all. At least as long as they can hold it. As for me, I'm with the Followers of the Apocalypse.
|
91
|
VMS03IgnacioWithNoOne
|
My only true allegiance is to myself.
|
Neutral 50
|
Then for everyone's sake, I hope you serve a worthy master. Are you a maker of war, or peace?
|
92
|
VMS03IgnacioYouFirst
|
This is your turf. For all I know you could have me killed for my allegiance. Who are you with?
|
Neutral 50
|
[SUCCEEDED] Very well. Yes. I'm part of the Followers of the Apocalypse.
|
93
|
Neutral 50
|
If you're not familiar, we seek peace and the spread of knowledge. Knowledge that must never be lost to the world.
|
94
|
Neutral 50
|
Now your turn.
|
95
|
Uh... you first.
|
Neutral 50
|
[FAILED] I would, but I wouldn't want to influence your answer.
|
96
