Gary (clone)

Gary was one of the original inhabitants of Vault 108, and clones of him are the only people left in the Vault in Fallout 3.

Background
A holodisk found in the Vault 108 cloning lab, named "Cloning log", explains that Gary was cloned at least 54 times; all clones exhibited hostility towards non-clones, with each successive clone being more and more violent. When the Vault scientists started running out of room to store the clones, they planned to destroy some of them to make room for additional test subjects. Apparently the clones objected to this, escaped, and slaughtered the rest of the Vault's inhabitants. It seems most of the Garys either escaped or were killed, as the Vault door is found open upon discovery, and Gary 23 is located far away from the Vault.

Curiously, the Gary clones found in Vault 108 speak almost entirely using different ways of saying "Gary". The reason for this is not explained or even hinted at, but might be an intended joke by the developers.

In the Outcast outpost (from the Operation: Anchorage add-on), a dead Gary (Gary 23) can be found wearing a Vault 108 jumpsuit in the locked room (Lockpick 25) across from Protector McGraw. Gary 23 has nothing on him and his jumpsuit cannot be removed. His left arm has been cut off, and there are medical tools nearby (i.e.: 2 bonesaws, knife, scissors). It seems that the Outcasts tried to remove his Pip-Boy 3000 through removal of the limb in order to use the military VR pod in order to gain access to an armory that opens once the simulation is complete. Specialist Olin also comments on how it wasn't her fault "what happened to the first guy". Gary's complete Interrogation log was cut from the game, but can be obtained through console commands if the player wants to know exactly what happened to him.

Appearances
The Gary clones appear only in Fallout 3. Gary 23 appears (deceased) in the Fallout 3 add-on Operation: Anchorage.
