Lily (Fallout: New Vegas)

Lillian Marie Bowen (aka Lily), born in 2078, is a 203 year old nightkin 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 Guess Who I Saw Today 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, 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. After having her around long enough, it becomes evident that Leo likes to "slash" at things, and kills while Lily does. It is also likely that Leo is just a figment of her imagination, due to the schizophrenia. She says Leo tells her to do "bad things". Lily and Leo seem to have a similar relationship to that of Harold and Bob from past Fallout titles.

Leo could also be a reference to Uncle Leo, a friendly super mutant in Fallout 3; however, Uncle Leo is a Vault 87 Super Mutant, and Lily is a Master's Nightkin. Leo also could be a reference to Leo from Manhunt 2, the second personality of Daniel.

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.If she is not found back at the Lucky 38 she could be where you told her to go to the Lucky 38 and will begin walking back once you get in range of her.
 * 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 get them back when you leave. (This applies to first bug)
 * Lily can mention the Lucky 38 before becoming your companion.
 * Lily can equip super sledge but not the unique super sledge "Oh Baby!". She also can't equip energy weapons or any unique weapons.
 * If you dismissed Boone before taking Lily in the quest and enter a casino with Lily, Boone will have her weapons
