Vault-Tec rep

This Vault-Tec representative is an experienced salesman representing the Vault-Tec Corporation in the Greater Boston area in 2077. Surviving the Great War, depressed, alone, and now a ghoul, he has made his dwelling in the Hotel Rexford in 2287.

Background
<!-- // The doorbell rings and SPOUSE exclaims: 'Can you get that? It's probably that salesman. He comes for you every day.' //

Vault-Tec rep: "Good morning! Vault-Tec calling!" The Sole Survivor: "Vault-Tec? Remind me again." Vault-Tec rep: ''"Why we're about you, sir! And helping secure your future. You see, Vault-Tec is the foremost builder of state-of-the-art underground fallout shelters. Vaults, if you will. Luxury accommodations, where you can wait out the horrors of nuclear devastation. You can't begin to know how happy I am to finally speak with you. I've been trying for days. It's a matter of utmost urgency, I assure you.

The Sole Survivor: "What's so important?" Vault-Tec rep: "Why nothing less than your entire future! If you haven't noticed, sir/ma'am, this country has gone to heck in a hand basket. If you'll excuse my language. The big kaboom is... it's inevitable, I'm afraid. And coming sooner than you may think. If you catch my meaning. Now, I know you're a busy fellow, so I won't take up much of your time. Time being a, um, precious commodity... I'm here today to tell you that because of your family's service to our country, you have been pre-selected for entrance into the local Vault. Vault 111."

The Sole Survivor: "But there's room for my entire family, right?" Vault-Tec rep: "Of course. Of course! Minus your robot, naturally. In fact, you're already cleared for entrance. It's just a matter of verifying some information. Don't want there to be any hold ups, in the unforeseen event of *ahem*...total atomic annihilation. Won't take but a moment."

The Sole Survivor: "Tell me more about this Vault." Vault-Tec rep: "Oh, it has all the amenities of the modern home, I assure you. Not to mention total protection from nuclear radiation and hostile mutants. A better future, underground. It's not only our mission - it's our passion."

Sure. Let's do it. Splendid, splendid! Now let's see...

Wonderful! That's... everything... Just gonna walk this over to the Vault! Congratulations on being prepared for the future!

// These lines are spoken by Nate and Nora after the he leaves: 'Um... Thanks again...' 'Hey, it's peace of mind. That's worth a little paperwork, right?' 'For you and Shaun, no price is too high.' '*Chuckles* Good answer.' 'I have my moments.' //

Vault-Tec rep: "Good morning! Vault-Tec calling!" The Sole Survivor: "Good morning." Vault-Tec rep: "Isn't it? Just look at the sky out there! *clears throat* You can't begin to know how happy I am to finally speak with you. I've been trying for days. It's a matter of utmost urgency, I assure you."

The Sole Survivor: "Then I'm glad you caught up with me." Vault-Tec rep: "Oh, me too! You have no idea... Now, I know you're a busy fellow, so I won't take up much of your time. Time being a, um, precious commodity... I'm here today to tell you that because of your family's service to our country, you have been pre-selected for entrance into the local Vault. Vault 111."

the salesman went door to door finalizing paperwork on residents pre-approved for entrance into Vault 111 on Saturday morning, October 23, 2077. Not long after the sirens, just as Nate, Nora, and Shaun make it to the gate, he was arguing with an officer, demanding that he be let in as a member of Vault-Tec. After threatening to run past them anyway, a power armored soldier revs his minigun, which frightens him into backing off. As he runs away, he then threatened to report what happened.

Luckily, or unluckily, the Vault-Tec rep survived the Great War. When he awoke he was greeted by Codsworth, trimming the hedges like nothing had happened. He stayed there for over a year, alone and with only Codsworth's personality to keep him company. Unable to take the monotony of it any longer he left, never to return.

He eventually made his way to Diamond City, but with the Anti-ghoul decree of 2282 baring him from town and no other settlements wanting a ghoul salesman, he wandered into Goodneighbor and took residence in the Hotel Rexford. That is, until the day he and the Sole Survivor met again in the hallway outside his room. It is here the Sole Survivor can talk him out of his funk and recruit him to a settlement as a merchant. Although still depressed he will welcome the chance to finally be productive and be among friends.

Although he was aware that time was precious in late 2077 he managed his nervousness through his work. Once a confident and friendly man he has become depressed, bitter, angry, and alone. He spends virtually every waking moment bemoaning his fate as a lonely monster, living through the filth, decay, and the bloodshed, abandoned by the corporation he faithfully served. It was his obsession with the past and how he believed that he deserved better that kept him in this eternal funk. Of particular note was with the contest he was to win, a pack of steak knives being the prize.

He truly believed that Vault-Tec was working for a better future, and continues to be proud of his twenty year sales career with them. Despite the two centuries since the Great War, his obsessive bitter depression has limited his interaction with others, evident by the fact that he is honestly and completely unaware of their true nature.

Other interactions

 * Once encountered at Hotel Rexford, the representative can be convinced to join the player's settlement at Sanctuary Hills as an expert trader, with a moderate dialogue challenge. Once at Sanctuary Hills, he can be moved to any other settlement using the Move command. When assigned to an emporium, he sells a broad variety of items, including the unique Apocalypse left greave.
 * Unfortunately he has a long dialogue line about "the two of us, here in Sanctuary" that he repeats every time the player comes near, including when he is assigned to a store. Unlike most NPCs, his dialogue cannot be skipped (by clicking), and the trade interface will not open until he finishes.
 * If one is sarcastic about staying unchanged for two hundred years and the player has Codsworth in their party the line spoken will not include his experience with Codsworth.
