Phil (Junktown)

Phil was a citizen of Junktown, around 2161.

Background
Phil asks the Vault Dweller to do something about the dog, Dogmeat, that had taken up residence in front of his house since his previous owner's death, which apparently occurred only days before the Vault Dweller's arrival.

Interactions with the player character
Phil provides the Vault Dweller with information about the dog's previous owner, particularly his fate and his appearance, which the Vault Dweller can mimic in order to gain Dogmeat's trust. He is extremely fearful of the dog, and is very thankful when the Vault Dweller gets him to leave.

Appearances
Aside from appearing in Fallout itself, Phil also appears in the Fallout demo as a citizen of Scrapheap, with the same quest as in the final game.
