A Manhandled Manservant



A Manhandled Manservant is an unmarked Fallout 3 quest.

Background
Argyle has not been seen since he was separated from Herbert "Daring" Dashwood during their escape from Rockopolis. The retired adventurer refuses to believe his manservant died in that battle though, instead believing he is still out there somewhere.

Detailed walkthrough

 * Optional: The player can talk to Herbert Dashwood at Tenpenny Tower, who will fill in the player on some of the background, and ask the player to tell him if he finds a sign of Argyle.
 * Upon visiting Rockopolis and finding Argyle's corpse, the player may return the news to Herbert Dashwood for a reward. This can be accomplished without previously speaking to him about Argyle. Dashwood, sad to hear of Argyle's demise (he always thought Argyle would outlast him by at least 100 years), tells the player that his days of adventuring are over and gives the player the key to his safe.

Rewards
Inside the safe are bottle caps, Mentats, a mini nuke, Rad-X, Bottlecap mine schematics, a Stealth Boy and stimpak.

Taking any of these will not result in him becoming hostile, nor will any guards that witness you stealing. (See Bugs section.)

Bugs

 * Even after receiving the key, taking any items from Dashwood's safe may be considered stealing, resulting in Dashwood taking the items back if he sees you use the safe. This can be avoided by waiting for him to leave the room, though it will still affect Karma.
 * This can be fixed by using the console command to make the safe yours.
