Well, you see it’s like this - golden geckos and regular geckos are basically the same critter except the golden’s got a big second helping of sheer cussedness... (time passes as you learn the lore of the Gecko)
”Smiley is one of the best gecko trappers in Klamath in Fallout 2.
Background[]
Smiley is a popular, jovial fellow with decades of experience in hunting game of all sizes. Recently, as his age began to catch up with him, he caught the eye of Ardin Buckner. The feeling was mutual and the two planned to settle down together, but before Smiley could commit to it, he had to follow one promising lead, one that would've explained the origins of the golden gecko.
He found the toxic caves. However, a golden gecko got lucky and bit him, forcing him to take refuge in an old, pre-War military storage facility.[1] Forced to survive on whatever he could squeeze out of the place, the wounded trapper hopes for rescue, against all odds.
