Old Lady Gibson

Old Lady Gibson runs Gibson scrap yard north of Novac, trading in junk and some more specific items the Courier might be searching for in the year 2281.

Background
A down to earth elderly woman, Gibson has made her life as a scavenger and repairwoman. Gibson is unimaginatively called "Old Lady Gibson" by locals because of her age, but she doesn't mind as living long enough to be called "old" is an accomplishment in and of itself, though she's not holding her breath about going peacefully.

Being the pragmatic scavenger she's been for most of her life, she's selling anything: Scrap, radioactive material, even her dog's life, if it can get her caps. Currently, she lives alone in her scrapyard, but for many years, she has enjoyed the company of her guard dogs, Basura, Reina, Rey, Colmillo, Fiel, and Audaz, and will do anything to make them happy.

In her youth, she traveled to the Mojave Wasteland on a caravan with Doctor Henry where they got to know each other intimately. But that was just a fling, and once they reached their destination, they parted ways. She eventually made her way to the Novac area and settled down with her late husband. Together, they would scavenge the REPCONN test site for the better part of their lives together scraping or selling practically everything that wasn't bolted down and wasn't radically radioactive. She eventually settled down at her scrap yard after her husband passed.

Quests

 * Come Fly With Me: Old Lady Gibson will sell the Courier the thrust control modules.
 * Nothin' But a Hound Dog: Old Lady Gibson may be approached about using Rey's brain in Rex. She will ask for 700 caps for this "favor" as he's considered family. She says he's getting old and he would probably need to be put down soon anyway. It's free with a Barter check (70). After Rey has been killed, his brain can be used for Rex. Using Rey's brain on Rex will increase Rex's ferocity in battle.
 * ED-E My Love: Talking to Gibson will activate ED-E's first audio log.
