Pariah Dog

Pariah Dog is a special joinable NPC in Fallout 2 found in a random encounter.

He'll be standing in the middle of an area scattered with corpses and will join you over the party limit if you fail at a Luck check. If he joins your party you get the Jinxed perk and your Luck drops to 1.

In battle Pariah Dog does nothing helpful and usually just runs away and over the edge of the screen.

The only way to remove it from your party and taking up one of your NPC slots is for the dog to die, which is a task in itself because of the cowardly demeanor and high HP. When Pariah Dog is removed from the party you lose the Jinxed perk and your Luck stat returns to normal.
