Interactions with the player character Fallout Interactions overview The Vault Dweller never really recovered from the loss of his friend. His luck ran out at the Mariposa Military Base on April 20, 2162, when a force field took his life. ĭogmeat adopted the Vault Dweller on December 30, 2161, and as his loyal canine companion soldiered with him across the wasteland, surviving the encounter with the super mutants at the Necropolis that claimed Ian's life and helping him find the water chip. The poor Junktowner and his partner had to sleep rough for over a month until the Vault Dweller arrived. Dogmeat didn't take to it too kindly and chose to vent his frustrations by laying claim to Phil's doorstep.

The intimidation tactic turned into a killing, as the traveler broke his neck and died. Unfortunately for him, when he tried to interfere with Gizmo's business, as protagonists are known to do, the crime boss had his thugs beat him up and throw him from the casino roof. The traveler was tall, dark-haired with graying edges, wore black leather in the desert and carried a shotgun - in a word, he was the archetypal protagonist of a post-apocalyptic story. What is known is that he came to town with a leather-clad traveler that came from the eastern deadlands (or so he claimed).
