Old Longfellow

Old Longfellow is a possible companion living in his cabin near Far Harbor, working as a hunter and bodyguard in 2287.

Background
When Old Longfellow was much younger, he was in a romantic relationship with a woman named Hannah. One day when they went to meet up at their usual spot, members of the Church of Atom jumped the pair - severely wounding Longfellow and taking Hannah away. It took him two months to recover from the injuries he received, but when he found Hannah, she had already been converted and was now a follower of their ways. Later, Longfellow discovered Hannah was pregnant with his child, but the radiation she worshiped had caused her to have a miscarriage. This is one reason that Old Longfellow hates the Church of Atom.

Old Longfellow lives on his own in a cabin near Far Harbor. He has a reputation for being an experienced hunter and an expert in moving about the fog, often escorting people through it - however, most of his escorts end up dead as they often underestimate the fog and its dangers.
