“You're not from around here. Who're you?”— Katja questioning the Vault Dweller's origin

Katja is a scavenger living in the LA Boneyard in the year of 2161.

Background

Katja is a scavenger from Adytum who occasionally camps out with the Followers of the Apocalypse in the Boneyard Library, even though she does not follow their way of life. She hates dogs, and will express this disdain out-loud every time the Vault Dweller examines or pets Dogmeat.

Quests

Recruit Katja: Self-explanatory

Effects of player's actions

If the player character has made Shady Sands hostile, so will Katja before trying to recruit her.

Other interactions

Katja is a recruitable NPC located in the Boneyard Library. She can be recruited simply by being asked to join. Afterwards, she can be used to lockpick closed doors. She is also a decent ally with any large handgun (sprite limitations prohibit her from using regular pistols).
She is extremely deadly with a power fist or a Ripper, usually making huge amounts of damage with those weapons. Her biggest drawbacks are her low Strength and HP, that she can only carry a bit of weight, and that she needs a constant supply of stimpaks to be able to endure some battles, especially near the end of the game.

Water	I don't know where you could find such a relic of old technology.
Boneyard	The Angel's Boneyard is all that's left of the old city of Los Angeles. Mostly divided among warring factions, these days.
War	The War brought misery and death all over the world. I sure hope that something like that never happens again. But from what've seen, there's not much hope for humanity.
Adytum	Adytum used to be my home, but those people are just too paranoid and reclusive. They'll never survive by withdrawing from the world.
Followers	The Followers of the Apocalypse preach peace and tolerance. Too bad it just doesn't cut it in this world.
Cathedral	The Cathedral is a monumental structure south of Adytum by about a day's walk or so. It's run by a weird cult that worships some sort of dark god.
Chip	I don't know where you could find such a relic of old technology.
Necropolis	What, the city of the dead? Isn't that a myth?
Medic	The Followers have a medic on hand at all times.
Healing	You should go see the medic at the Followers if you need healing.
Vault, Vault-13, Vault13	Weren't the Vaults like big underground shelters?
Junktown	Um, small town north of the Hub, I think.
Shady	Shady what?
Sands	Shady Sands? Never heard of it.
The Hub	The Hub's a huge trading center, with all sorts of stores and merchants.
Store	The Gun Runners sell stuff, and there's a store in Adytum.
Deathclaw	Ugh! The Deathclaws are all over in the Boneyard. I'd rather not even think about them. Huge and aptly named.
Children	I don't like kids.
Brotherhood	I hear they're some sort of high-tech monks.
Base	I suppose there must be some remnants of the old military.
Apocalypse	You mean the big war? Wow, you sure have led a sheltered life if you don't know anything about that.
Mutants	I've seen a rat with three eyes once. That's about all I know about mutants.
Morpheus	I think he's a High Priest for the Cathedral, or something.
Booze	No thanks.
Chems	Ugh. No, I'd rather not. I watched a friend die from an overdose of Psycho once. Not pretty.
Zimmerman	He's the mayor of Adytum. A fair, if somewhat vacillating, man.
Regulators	They watch over Adytum and keep it under control.
Scavs	I used to be a scav. We'd go out at night and try to find useful stuff in the ruins of the Boneyard. Very dangerous job. I got sick of Adytum, though.
Blades	They're a group of cast-offs who live outside of Adytum.
Nicole	She's the leader of the Followers. An intelligent woman, and good hearted, too.
Psychics	I get "feminine intuition" occasionally, if that's what you mean.
Merchants	Merchants trade with Adytum occasionally, and sell to the Gun Runners.

Inventory

Leather jacket (equivalent to combat armor)	5x Throwing knife	2x Stimpaks
