Michael Masters

Michael Masters is a ghoul residing in Warrington Station in the year 2277.

Background
Born before the Great War, Michael worked as a scientist, believing that he was making progress in his field, despite people getting hurt in the process. His work was cut short when the war occurred. He mentions that he used to vacation at Tenpenny Tower before the war, stating that it used to be a resort for the wealthy and powerful.

Quests
Tenpenny Tower: Upon first meeting Michael, he will try to make the Lone Wanderer go back the way they came, eventually leading them to Roy Phillips if they insist.

Effects of player's actions

 * If one completes the Tenpenny Tower quest by convincing the other residents to let the ghouls in, Michael will have a shop and will sell random guns, ammunition, and other items with a nice discount.
 * If one chooses to kill Roy Phillips after the ghouls move into Tenpenny Tower, even if done silently with no observers, Michael Masters will turn hostile and further trading with him becomes impossible.

Appearances
Michael Masters appears only $$

Bugs

 * If you decide to kill all the residents and let the ghouls move in, when you walk into Tenpenny Tower you may see him walk towards the door and then walk out. If you follow him he will walk towards the main exit and disappear when he gets to the potted plants, and you will hear the sound that happens when you go through a grate. If you search Warrington station he will be nowhere to be found.
 * Fix: He will be at the station, waiting for the Lone Wanderer to greet him. Go past the escalator to the metro line and he will greet you. He will then go back to Tenpenny Tower.
 * Since you can't buy from Lydia Montenegro if you end the Tenpenny Tower quest with good Karma, you can't buy anything for your Tenpenny Tower Suite if you kill Michael Masters before you end the quest.
 * He may be hostile for no apparent reason upon first meeting him or inside Tenpenny Tower. The only known solution is to load a previous save or kill him.
 * When you kill Michael Masters instead of helping him get into the tower the game will bug when saved(any kind of save).
