Keene has never liked me. If anyone can talk him into backing down, it'll have to be you.

Marcus isn't going to be happy about the deaths, but I guess they were unavoidable. At least I got a lot of useful data from the experiment.
|

|
Neutral 50
|
This brief test might not yield a cure any time soon. If the prototype was constantly in use on a living subject, however...
|
10
|
Neutral 50
|
Perhaps Lily might be willing to wear the prototype for a longer duration. The data would be invaluable.
|

GREETING

I think those Nightkin are going cause a lot of trouble, but I guess giving them the specs was better than killing them.
|
12
|
Neutral 50
|
I did get a lot of useful data from the experiment, and I'm much closer to a cure than I was before.
|
13
|
Neutral 50
|
It's occurred to me that this brief test might not yield a cure any time soon. However, if Lily were to continue to wear the prototype...
|

Nice work with the Nightkin. I've never seen anyone able to talk their kind out of anything once they had their mind set to it.

Something's wrong with my cyber-dog. I was told to come to you.
|
Neutral 50
|
It's neural degradation. Bio med gel can only preserve a living brain for so long, so you'll need to find a replacement.
|

Neutral 50
|
I haven't left Jacobstown in years, but there was one woman in Novac... Gibson? I remember her living with a pack of hounds.
|
30
|
Neutral 50
|
Aside from her, I know that the Fiends and Caesar's Legion fight alongside dogs. There could be viable specimens among them, if you can get to them.

{Rex not inside Lodge} I don't see him with you. Bring him to me and I'll take a look. Otherwise, I'll just be guessing.

VDialogueRemnantsVRemDoctorHenryTopic002
|
How goes your research for the Nightkin cure?
|
Neutral 50
|
Promising, but I won't be able to synthesize the drug anytime soon. I really should get back to my work.

Arcade Gannon has asked me to gather all the former members of the Enclave in the Mojave.
|
Neutral 50
|
{work not yet complete} You must have something important in mind. I'm willing to go to this little reunion, but my work here isn't complete.
|
34
|
Neutral 50

Help me get my research to a stage where I can hand it over to my assistant, Calamity, and then ask me about this again.

{VMS41 complete} I'm intrigued, so I'll go to this reunion. I'll be handing things over to Calamity, so talk to her if anything comes up.
|
36

Oh, you'll need my word from the pass phrase to get into the bunker - "friends." Don't forget it.

This brain is from Rey, one of Old Lady Gibson's dogs.
|
Neutral 50
|
All right, let's see here... neural pathways look good... definitely a breed of guard dog.
|
38
|
Neutral 50
|
If I transplant this brain into Rex, he'll be a bit more ferocious in his attacks.
|
39
|
VDialogueRemnantsVRemDoctorHenryTopic012
|
Does Stealth Boy use hurt humans?
|
Neutral 50
|
It's possible, but I've yet to see any hard evidence or hear of any cases where humans were negatively affected.
|
40
|
Neutral 50
|
Its negative effects are more pronounced on Nightkin.
|
41
|
VDialogueRemnantsVRemDoctorHenryTopic013
|
Why are you helping the Nightkin?
|
Neutral 50
|
Because Marcus asked me to and because it's a reason for me to get up in the morning. I'd like to get one more grand accomplishment done.
|
42
|
VDialogueRemnantsVRemDoctorHenryTopic014
|
I'd like to help. What do you need me to do?
|
Neutral 50
|
I'm not convinced that the Nightstalker mutation is a natural one, and I need someone to investigate their lair for proof.
|
43
|
Neutral 50
|
Some of the Super Mutants have looked around as well, but they've come back empty-handed. Perhaps a pair of fresh eyes will have better luck.
|
44
|
Neutral 50
|
Lily might be interested in coming with you - she's lost a few of her Bighorners to Nightstalker attacks and would enjoy a little revenge.
|
45
|
VDialogueRemnantsVRemDoctorHenryTopic015
|
Let's talk about something else.
|
Neutral 50
|
If we must.
|
46
|
VDialogueRemnantsVRemDoctorHenryTopic016
|
I have a new brain for Rex.
|
Neutral 50
|
Very well, show me what you've brought so that I can analyze its potential.
|
47
|
I have a new brain for Rex.
|
Neutral 50
|
And your cyber-dog is... where, exactly? I can't perform the operation without him, hopefully for obvious reasons.
|
48
|
VDialogueRemnantsVRemDoctorHenryTopic019
|
Transplant Rey's brain into Rex.
|
Neutral 50
|
Have a seat. This will take awhile.
|
49
|
VDialogueRemnantsVRemDoctorHenryTopic020
|
I got a brain from Lupa, the mother of many Legion Mongrels.
|
Neutral 50
|
Let's take a look... exceptional synapse responses... descended from some type of cattle dog, I imagine.
|
50
|
Neutral 50
|
If you want me to transplant this brain into Rex, he'll become more durable.
|
51
|
VDialogueRemnantsVRemDoctorHenryTopic021
|
Transplant Lupa's brain into Rex.
|
Neutral 50
|
Have a seat. This will take awhile.
|
52
|
VDialogueRemnantsVRemDoctorHenryTopic022
|
Hold off on the transplant.
|
Neutral 50
|
All right. {shrugging} Your call.
|
53
|
VDialogueRemnantsVRemDoctorHenryTopic024
|
I took down a Fiend dog named Violetta.
|
Neutral 50
|
Big brain on this one. All right, let's see... damn, heavy amounts of the chemicals used in the drug Turbo are present.
|
54
|
Neutral 50
|
Transplanting this brain will make Rex faster than he was before.
|
55
|
VDialogueRemnantsVRemDoctorHenryTopic025
|
Transplant Violetta's brain into Rex.
|
Neutral 50

|
56
|
VDialogueRemnantsVRemDoctorHenryTopic026
|
What makes you think that the Nightstalker mutation isn't natural?
|
Neutral 50
|
I've compared the brain chemistry of a Nightkin to one of the local Nightstalkers we killed. They both exhibit similar neurochemical changes.
|
57
|
Neutral 50
|
Now, I'm not claiming that Nightstalkers are running around wearing Stealth Boys, mind you. I just don't think it's all a coincidence.
|
58
|
VDialogueRemnantsVRemDoctorHenryTopic028
|
Go ahead and start the tests.
|
Neutral 50
|
Very well. Please stand back - I don't want any erroneous readings. You're welcome to stay and observe if you want, though.
|
59
|
Go ahead and start the tests.
|
Neutral 50
|
Wait, Lily's not in position yet. Talk to me again once she's settled in.
|
60
|
VDialogueRemnantsVRemDoctorHenryTopic029
|
Don't start just yet. I'll be back.
|
Neutral 50
|
{impatient} Oh, all right.
|
61

VDialogueRemnantsVRemDoctorHenryTopic031
|
I found a chewed up Stealth Boy in the Nightstalker lair.
|
Neutral 50
|
Hmmm... there's still power, but the casing is cracked. I'm astonished that exposure to the stealth radiation could induce mutations so rapidly.
|
62
|
Neutral 50
|
More importantly, this explains why my research into this group of Nightstalkers hasn't come up with a cure for the Nightkin.
|
63
|
Neutral 50
|
There's only one avenue left for me - I need to run the Mark II test on Lily. It's the only way.

Sad 5
|
I did have a test in mind using Lily, but since she's dead, that's no longer a possibility. Regrettable. Anyway, you've done all you can.
|
67
|
VDialogueRemnantsVRemDoctorHenryTopic032
|
Why Lily and not some other Nightkin?
|
Neutral 50
|
Lily is eccentric, certainly, but I've never felt she was dangerous. More importantly, she asked if she could help me in some way.
|
68
|
Neutral 50
|
I've told her about the risks, and she still insists on helping me.
|
69
|
VDialogueRemnantsVRemDoctorHenryTopic033
|
I'll talk to Lily, then.
|
Neutral 50
|
I'll be waiting.
|
70
|
VDialogueRemnantsVRemDoctorHenryTopic034
|
I'm surprised to find another human here.
|
Neutral 50
|
I prefer the solitude, and having a bunch of Super Mutants around tends to keep things safe and quiet.
|
71
|
VDialogueRemnantsVRemDoctorHenryTopic035
|
You're a scientist?
|
Neutral 50
|
Yes. Specializing in neuroscience, both human and canine. Of course, this lab is nothing compared to what I had when I was with the Enclave.
|
72
|
VDialogueRemnantsVRemDoctorHenryTopic036
|
Canine neuroscience?
|
Neutral 50
|
Cyber-dogs and the like. It's not a field I work in much anymore.
|
73
|
VDialogueRemnantsVRemDoctorHenryTopic037
|
You were with the Enclave?
|
Neutral 50
|
Yes, but the leadership and I didn't see eye to eye, so I left. It was the right decision, since the Enclave's oil rig was destroyed not long after.
|
74
|
VDialogueRemnantsVRemDoctorHenryTopic038
|
What are you working on?
|
Neutral 50
|
The Nightkin have varying degrees of mental instability due their addiction to Stealth Boy use. I've been trying to come up with a cure.
|
75
|
Neutral 50
|
I'm currently investigating the local Nightstalker population since they seem to have developed a natural stealth field.
|
76
|
Neutral 50
|
I've also gotten my hands on a working Stealth Boy Mark II prototype, but that experiment is riskier. I'd rather not pursue that research just yet.
|
77
|
VDialogueRemnantsVRemDoctorHenryTopic041
|
I could look for the source of the Nightstalker mutation for you.
|
Neutral 50
|
Thank you. I strongly suspect that the source of the mutation is artificial, but the Super Mutants found nothing. Your fresh eyes may do better.
|
78
|
Neutral 50
|
Lily might be interested in coming with you - she's lost a few of her Bighorners to Nightstalker attacks and would enjoy a little revenge.
|
79
|
VDialogueRemnantsVRemDoctorHenryTopic042
|
What are the risks of the experiment?
|
Neutral 50
|
Possibly immediate and permanent mental damage. There's a reason the Stealth Boy Mark IIs never got beyond the prototype stage.
|
80
|
Neutral 50
|
Lily already has a pre-existing condition, and the experiment will likely make things worse for her.
|
81
|
VDialogueRemnantsVRemDoctorHenryTopic043
|
Why is the Stealth Boy Mark II riskier?
|
Neutral 50
|
The stealth field has been modulated to use less power and thus last longer, but for some reason it has pronounced negative effects on the user.
|
82
|
Neutral 50
|
However, these pronounced effects will allow me to pinpoint exactly what parts of the brain they're affecting.
|
83
|
Neutral 50
|
Unfortunately, I'll need to run the test on a live subject, and Marcus has encouraged me to investigate the Nightstalker mutation first.
|
84
|
VDialogueRemnantsVRemDoctorHenryTopic044
|
I need to think about this.
|
Neutral 50
|
Once you're done thinking, talk to Lily.

|
{narrating} With the transplant of Lupa's brain, Rex gained all of the donor's experiences traveling with the Legion.

|
The risk to Lily is too great. Don't keep running the test.
|
Neutral 50
|
All right. I'll dismantle the prototype to avoid any further incidents with the Nightkin.
|
96
|
VMS41VRemDoctorHenryTopic001
|
I think Lily should continue to wear the Mark II prototype.
|
Neutral 50
|
Very well. It will be worth it, I'm sure.
|
97
|
VMS41VRemDoctorHenryTopic002
|
What do you want to do?
|
Neutral 50
|
I'm close to the cure, I can feel it. Lily's continued help will give me the last bit of data that I need.
|
98
|
VMS41VRemDoctorHenryTopic003
|
Let me think about this.
|
Neutral 50
|
I understand. Get back to me with an answer as soon as you can.
|
99
|
VMS41VRemDoctorHenryTopic004
|
What will happen to Lily?
|
Neutral 50
|
Permanent damage to her mind is a certainty. Even the cure won't help her.

|
VMS41VRemDoctorHenryTopic005 < Science 90 >
|
Use neuro-peptide stimulators on a Nightstalker brain. Results should be similar to a live brain.
|
Neutral 50
|
[SUCCEEDED] That's... brilliant. Simple, yet elegant. I can't believe I didn't think of that.
|
101
|
You said Nightstalker brains were similar. What about just testing those?
|
Neutral 50
|
[FAILED] Neuron decay is rapid after death, and I doubt a live Nightstalker would cooperate with my test.
