Gary (clone)

Gary was one of the original inhabitants of Vault 108, and clones of him are the only people left in the vault by 2277. The clones are all numbered and all of them are hostile towards non-clones.

History
A holodisc found in the Vault 108 cloning lab 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.

Although the cloning was deemed "another failure" by Vault-Tec, they have produced something out of the ordinary. At the entrance of vault 108, there are mole rats and skeletons around. In the middle of a pile of dead bodies, the first Gary you see is there. If everyone else there are skeletons, then how has the dead Gary's skin not rotted away?

Characteristics
The clones usually only speak their own name, using different tones to express anger, curiosity, or pain. All of the Gary clones wear Vault 108 Jumpsuits. With the exceptions of Gary 1 and Gary 25, who carry N99 10mm Pistols, and Gary 27, who carries an AEP7 Laser Pistol, all the clones are either unarmed, or equipped with melee weapons (mainly knives or lead pipes) - although they will pick up better weapons from their surroundings, if possible. Notably, Gary 1 is only carrying 9 rounds of ammunition even though a 10mm Pistol has a 12 round magazine, indicating possible suicide by gunshot. There is also a random occurrence where Gary 47 will be equipped with a Scoped .44 Magnum.

Overall, the Gary clones are rather weak, and can easily be dispatched by a single Hunting Rifle headshot, 2-3 pistol headshots, or 2-3 melee weapon hits.

Operation: Anchorage DLC
In the Outcast Outpost (from the Operation: Anchorage DLC), a dead Gary (Gary 23) can be found wearing a Vault 108 jumpsuit in the locked room across from Protector McGraw. The room has an Easy lock so it will not be hard to get in. Gary 23 has nothing on him and his jumpsuit cannot be removed. If you inspect his body and the surrounding area, you will notice that his left arm has been cut off and that there are a bunch of medical tools nearby (ie: 2 bonesaws, knife, scissors). It seems that the Outcasts tried to remove a Pip-Boy 3000 from him the hard way. It's uncertain whether he was killed in this room, in the simulation, or somewhere else, but the pool of blood suggests that the first scenario is most likely. However, Specialist Olin comments on how it wasn't her fault "what happened to the first guy." Since the Outcasts ask for your help, it seems that Gary 23's Pip-Boy did not work, or they screwed it up in the process.

Oddities

 * It is possible for Gary 23 to be an old African American man, rather than to appear as all the other Gary clones. Users have reported both normal Gary 23s and old African American Gary 23s being found in the locked room of the Outcast base. Either way, his body will be positioned identically and his arm will be cut off and on the ground in pieces next to him. The only difference will be the appearance.
 * This is caused by a bug in which the skin coloring system malfunctions because of the fact that the Anchorage module is not the Fallout 3 master module. It can be fixed on the PC by adding the setting "bLoadFaceGenHeadEGTFiles=1" to the bottom of the "General" category in the Fallout INI (located in My Documents\My Games\Fallout 3).
 * Some questions are left unanswered: Where did the Outcasts find Gary 23, and where did that Gary get a Pip-Boy from? As the door of Vault 108 is open and a dead Gary can be found near the entrance, it is possible alot escaped: Gary 23 just ended up in the wrong place.

Bugs
This video shows Gary on the Xbox360 dlc.

Also, while wearing Chinese Stealth Armor, pointing a weapon a Gary clone will occasionally provoke similar comments to those of other wastelanders, such as "That's not a good idea": this has no effect on gameplay as you are still technically "hidden".
