Talk:Nightkin

Is this stuff right, people?

I'm pretty sure only the Cathedral has Nightkin with Stealth Boys, but there might be other mutants labelled nightkin?

I'm pretty sure you're right. Dan 16:16, 22 Jul 2005 (CEST)

Appearance in Fallout 3
I made an edit last night while not signed in and it was removed. I don't see the value in deleting relevant information. I was actually playing Fallout 3 at the time and noticed the word 'Nightkin' in the password list, so decided to add that under the Appearances heading. I rather resent my honest contribution being rejected this way. Chainsoar 22:11, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

True, but how does it do any harm to add each reference contained within the password lists to the relevant article? Many people use this Wiki to find interesting Fallout-related trivia. My edit falls under that category.Chainsoar 23:28, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

actually your edit falls under stupidity, I've seen stuff like 'purify' as passwords, dose that mean its referencing project purity, ooh, maby its an abstract reference to to the enclaves goal of 'purifying' the wastes of mutation! Katikar 11:21, February 14, 2010 (UTC)

Actually, your a douche. --173.80.188.204 23:46, October 15, 2010 (UTC)

New Vegas
Im pretty sure I just read that there going to be in New Vegas, if i can get confirmation and someone can add itKatikar 11:17, February 14, 2010 (UTC)

New Vegas DOES have Nightkins! On a quest known as 'Come Fly With Me', Nightkins are the demons who the underground ghouls fear and need to vanquish. They use Stealth Boys so they're invisible until you bump into them.

His comment was from a time before the information was confimed-and it's been confirmed for a good while. There's no point in answering questions like this which were made before any real information was released for the game, but which information has become common knowledge now.

Badass
Wow, the artwork from 'd20 makes these guys look pretty badass... If they're in New Vegas it'll be pretty sweet... Outcast  Mephisto  03:05, February 26, 2010 (UTC)

Info box image
I'm not sure how to upload images, but I think the image in the info box up the top should be replaced. After all, it's from an early build of New Vegas where they were still using retextured Vault 87 mutants, and it doesn't match up with the final look of the Nightkin.

Incorrect "Translation" of Battle Cattle?
In the Nightkin article it mentions the Black Mt. Radio term Battle Cattle refering to Brahmin. Would it not make more sense if the were reffering to Ceasers Legion, Who's symbol is a Bull? It also fits better because the make mention of the New California Republic, the two headed bear people. Thoughts?

Height
Is there a reason that the Nightkin are smaller than normal Mariposa super mutants? I had Lily stand beside Marcus and there's quite a big difference.

Incorrect image
One of the images in the gallery states that the Courier is swinging a bumper sword at a Nightkin, but it's vice- versa in the image. Can someone fix this? I don't know how.--Blahmarrow 21:03, January 21, 2011 (UTC)

Makeshift stop sign shields
Do there stop sign shields actualy make attacks damage less or is just there?Donovans Wrench 02:16, April 22, 2011 (UTC)
 * I'm pretty sure the stop signs are just there for flavor. Best regards, Kastera(talk) 02:43, April 22, 2011 (UTC)

Nightkin Horrible Idea?
So the epitome of the Masters cunning and strength was the sneaky Nightkin? The 8 foot tall super muscular hulking behemoths that wield 12 pound battle swords. How are they supposed to be stealthy again? No amount of steathboys would help them stay quiet or unnoticed. --72.129.151.117 19:11, June 13, 2011 (UTC)

Did you ever play Fallout 1, my good fellow? Chainsoar 12:08, September 25, 2011 (UTC)

Schizophrenia
The article references, in the notes section, that their schizophrenia in Fallout: New Vegas is caused by them not being used to being seen. This is clearly not the case as illustrated in the game with Doctor Henry and the quest to cure the Nightkin of their schizophrenia from prolonged use of Stealthboys and the effect that has on the mutant brain. It is also noted in dialogue that humans are not effected in the same way by Stealthboy use. 76.11.8.109 02:29, June 29, 2011 (UTC) 69.139.109.201 19:19, 15 July 2012 (UTC)

On Attis
" When the Master's super mutant army was defeated in 2162, some rallied together under the rule of Attis and others began wandering the Wasteland."

As it's based on Brotherhood of Steel, the text in bold should have the appropriate indicator of its status in canon, but I can't think of a way to insert that without it being terribly obtrusive. Attis is mentioned further down the page already, so that text there can be deleted without any information on the page actually being lost and the sentence rewritten to account for its deletion. Does anyone have any objections to that proposal? ComradeJim270 20:22, July 15, 2011 (UTC)

Alright, no objections after about a week, so I changed it. If someone thinks Attis should be mentioned in that part of the page (I'm not so sure he shouldn't), I'd be happy to discuss the best way to do that. ComradeJim270 18:12, July 21, 2011 (UTC)
