Tribal (Point Lookout)

The Point Lookout tribals are a group of tribals who inhabit Point Lookout in the Fallout 3 add-on Point Lookout.

Characteristics
Led by Jackson, the tribe cultivates, worships and consumes the punga fruit. What the punga cannot provide, they acquire by trading it with outsiders like Tobar.

The tribe believes in leaving material things behind, as the physical world has been destroyed, and concentrating on reaching astral planes of existence. As such, Jackson considers Calvert to have reached a far higher level of enlightenment as he has left his physical body behind completely. He obeys the Professor's every order, which is why the normally peaceful tribals have taken to assaulting Calvert Mansion. Should the Lone Wanderer choose to side with Desmond Lockheart during Thought Control, all unnamed tribe members become hostile and, unless they are killed unobserved, will be joined in hostility by any named members witnessing a fight with them. But, if you kill the unnamed tribals at the Ark & Dove Cathedral without killing any of the named tribals, you can leave the area and come back and not be attacked by the named tribals.

Their primary settlement is at the Ark & Dove Cathedral, entrance to which is only granted to those who pass an initiation ritual. It's also the only place where refined pungas can be found, aside from the occasional availability that food vendors offer.

The tribe's initiation ritual involves traveling to the Sacred Bog to retrieve punga seeds from the mother punga. When taking these seeds, the contestant is subjected to a hallucinogenic substance by the plant. During this period, Tobar removes a portion of the contestant's brain, allegedly the part responsible for inhibitions. Sometimes this procedure results in the death of the potential tribe member or a loss of more brain functions than desired. This is to an extent that a member, Woodrose, is charged with ensuring everyone in the tribe still eats and sleeps. Survivors who make it back to the cathedral are then accepted into the tribe.
