First time out of the vault
Leaked Information regarding Fallout 3. Everything below is considered a SPOILER. You have been warned.
[spoiler:efc68901fc]
Gentlemen, meet Fawkes. One, if not only, friendly Super Mutant in Fallout 3.
He is considered a "failure" in the experiment (he was deemed a failure because he could talk, supposedly) and was left inside a cell for observation at the Vault Labs in Vault 87.
You see, the labs at Vault 87 were assigned to a project called the "Evolutionary Experimentation Program", Or EEP for short.
Consider Vault 87 much like the military base at Mariposa. It was used to test modified strains of the Forced Evolutionary Virus (FEV) on clean, healthy citizens. Vault Dwellers.
However, they could never get their modified strain just right.
After all the modifications that were made to it, the modified FEV was superior in physical adaptions, but tended to decrease intelligence (instead of increase, which never was the case anyways with super mutants) and caused the subjects to exhibit bouts of rage and anxiety.
And that, my friends, is why the Super Mutants in capital D.C. cannot be talked to, except Fawkes. You can have him as your buddy! Comes included with a Gatling Laser.
Oh, and remember Harold? That Ghoul-Mutant?
Well, Harold is in Fallout 3.
And Boy has he changed. A lot.
Harold eventually found himself overwhelmed by Bob, and became rooted to the ground during his travels in the Washington DC region. Here he was discovered by several people who began to worship him as a god, and a small and exclusive cult called the "Treeminders" began to form in secrecy. Bob began to blossom and many plants grew in this area, which became green with life, a stark contrast to the outer wasteland.
Here's a HIGH QUALITY voice sample of Harold directly from Fallout 3.
