Timebomb

Timebomb is a badly injured man inside Red's Clinic in Big Town in the year 2277.

Background
Timebomb, like every other person in Big Town, came from Little Lamplight. If the player speaks to Bittercup, she will say she had a relationship with Timebomb. If you speak to Timebomb about this, he will have no recollection of it, implying she may have "had a relationship" with him while he was unconscious and alluding to Bittercup's fascination with death.

Effects of player actions
If your Medicine skill is more then 40 you can heal Timebomb, netting you 5 caps if your Speech skill is high enough. You also may acquire his Lucky 8 Ball if Timebomb survives the quest Big Trouble in Big Town.

If you choose to heal Timebomb you will receive some good karma. If you pass a Speech challenge, Timebomb will also give you 5 caps in return. Timebomb is rather weak (possibly due to his wounds) and although he is brave enough to fight unarmed, he will easily be killed by Super Mutants or Slavers unless you give them something else to pay attention to.

If the player chooses the option to "put him out of his misery", a message will say "You coldly open an artery. Even to a skilled surgeon it will appear as if Timebomb died as a result of his wounds. You bastard." You will receive bad karma and can loot the body (and devour it, if you have the Cannibal perk).

sometimes when you talk to him then end the dialogue by saying goodbye he will say he likes you.

Appearances
only appears in Fallout 3.

 * If you save the town from Super Mutants before you heal him, he will sometimes yell "Hurrah!" and clap his hands, and then return to his state of unconsciousness.
