Sun of Atom

The  is a radioactive ghoul found in the basement of the Holy Light Monastery. He is worshiped as a living idol of Atom, and is used to help irradiate the Aqua Pura to make holy water.

Sun of Atom is not hostile when you first see him, but will become hostile if he or any members of the monastery are attacked. He may also become hostile through certain dialogue options with Mother Curie III as well.

Background
Sun of Atom is a post-War ghoul, and he's always been loyal to the Apostles of the Holy Light. In fact, the leader of the Apostles, Curie III, is his own mother. She firmly believes that the Sun is transcending reality and straddling the conscious side of the ether, but nothing beyond instinct is keeping this Glowing One from gnawing on his fellow cult members.

Effects of player actions
If the player attacks anyone in the Monastery or engages in certain dialogue options with Mother Curie III, Sun of Atom will turn hostile.

Appearances
appears in the Broken Steel add-on for Fallout 3.
