KL-E-0

KL-E-0 (or Kleo) is a friendly Assaultron merchant in Goodneighbor in 2287.

Background
KL-E-0 is an Assaultron that resides in Goodneighbor and acts as a merchant. She owns the store Kill or Be Killed, which is located directly next to Daisy's Discounts. She sells Partystarter, a unique missile launcher.

If KL-E-0's terminal is hacked, it is revealed that she has a plan to kill several members of the Goodneighbor community, if the need arises. Her plan to eliminate the Neighborhood Watch is to wait for a super mutant or raider attack, planting high explosives at key areas of the defensive perimeter, and post-detonation, relocating immediately due to Goodneighbor's vulnerability.

KL-E-0 has a contingency plan in case her original plan fails: She understands that collateral damage may be possible but considers losses acceptable without too much disruption to her business.
 * Shoot Daisy with a laser from long range, as she is too close to Kill or Be Killed to outright assault her without raising suspicion.
 * Sneak into Bobbi No-Nose's hideout at night, dismantle the lights and then kill the occupants one by one.
 * Pay one of Whitechapel Charlie's associates to do the dirty work for her.
 * Eliminate Fahrenheit first by strangling her in her sleep, and lace all of the chems within the Old State House with poison to take out John Hancock.

KL-E-0 seems to hold a certain amount of respect for Magnolia, considering her a fellow working girl and willing to give her a chance before sudden termination. Her contingency consists of burning down The Third Rail as a warning. Should she resist after that, a simple clean shot to the head would be the outcome.

Other interactions
The Robotics Expert perk allows hacking into her system and turning her into a normal Assaultron. It will suspend her trading function temporarily and can return to a normal trader after choosing shutdown/activate while she is still following the player around in Goodneighbor.
