Hazmat suit (Old World Blues)

The hazmat suit and the matching hazmat darklight cowl are pieces of clothing in the Fallout: New Vegas add-on Old World Blues.

Background
The hazmat suit and the hazmat darklight cowl were created at Big MT and were worn by the construction crew of the Sierra Madre Villa before the Great War, who later mutated into Ghost People and began to wander the Sierra Madre in search of victims to drag off into The Cloud. Described as an "experiment within an experiment", the hazmat suits were issued to Sierra Madre Villa workers when The Cloud, a toxin also originating from Big MT, became a major problem for construction crews and to general health. The hazmat suit was known to be bulky and would grow stiff with use. It also had locks that were not protected from corrosion, and when exposed to The Cloud, the hazmat suit had to be opened with extremely sharp items (like the cosmic knife).

Characteristics

 * Wearing the helmet will give you a night-vision effect. Unlike night-vision scopes, it does not turn off during the day. The effect is similar to ghost sight.


 * The eyepieces are bright yellow in the center and glowing green around. The cowl is also known to create difficulty when speaking.

Locations

 * Hazmat Testing Ground, they can be found in a pod. You must either find the Hazmat Pod Security Code in order to unlock the pod or shoot it with a sonic emitter.

Appearances
