Lily (Fallout: New Vegas)

Lillian Marie Bowen (aka Lily), born in 2078, is a 203 year old super mutant living in Jacobstown in 2281.

Background
Though she now lives a peaceful life tending to bighorners in the community of Jacobstown, Lily was once a Nightkin in the Master's army. Before that, she was an elderly grandmother enjoying a simple life in Vault 17. Heavily medicated, Lily struggles with her dangerous schizophrenia and distant memories of her old life.

Given that the Master learned of other vaults when he conquered the Boneyard vault, it appears that she was captured and dipped between 2155 and 2161.

Interactions with the player character
When you go to Jacobstown and take the Night stalker mutation quest you will have the opportunity to recruit Lily as a companion. Lily is geared towards sneaky characters; she's most adept at Melee Weapons. She also seems to be amazingly quick and agile during battle.

Note: When Lily is a companion, she will occasionally have a mental break down and will be in aggressive mode until it fades.

She also frequently mentions someone named Leo (Fallout New Vegas), it seems to be either an imaginary friend, someone she knew in the past, or an emerging personality that threatens to envelop her own. But she will have conversations and even arguments with this "Leo" figure. By her descriptions of what Leo has to say it seems he's a more violent and crude personality in contrast to Lily's helpful one.

It is also likely that Leo (Fallout New Vegas) is just a figment of her imagination, due to the schizophrenia. She says Leo tells her to do "bad things". Lily and Leo (Fallout New Vegas) seem to have a similar relationship to that of Harold and Bob (Herbert) from past Fallout titles.

Leo could also be a referance to Uncle Leo, a friendly super mutant, in Fallout 3.

Bugs

 * Likewise with all companions on New Vegas, sometimes via script such as entering casinos will remove their "companion only" weapon. Upon leaving you will receive it in your inventory and can even use it, but if you happen to drop it on the ground, you cannot pick it back up when you click it -- it will only say "steal" with no weapon name shown.
 * In some instances Lily's Vertibird sword will glitch and become either a gun with the sword protruding from the barrel or the sword will be replaced entirely by the gun. she will not shoot with the gun however, she will continue to use it as a melee weapon.
 * If fired as a companion and told to go to the Lucky 38 Casino, Lily may disappear temporarily but can be found back at the Casino a little later.
 * Sometimes when you go into stealth mode, Lily will say her normal line "Don't worry about me deary, your grandma knows how to stay quiet", but she will repeat it every 20-30 seconds.
 * After Lily loses her weapons when entering the casinos on the strip, she may not gett them back when you leave. (This applies to first bug)
 * Lily can mention the Lucky 38 before becoming your companion.
