Arlen Glass

Arlen Glass is a male ghoul located in The Slog in 2287.

Background
He was the lead toy designer at Atomatoys. Shortly before the war he was fired from the company after an argument with the director of Atomatoys because his boss sold the company for military purposes. He had a daughter and a wife, both of whom died after the nukes destroyed their home. When Arlen arrived, he saw that there was only a hole where his home had been. In despair, he went to the center of the crater and went to sleep. After he woke up, he had become a ghoul.

Arlen presumably came to The Slog so he could escape persecution because he was a ghoul. He acts as the slog's current technician and engineer by doing tasks such as checking the plumbing, fixing the pool filters, and patching up the fence. He is working on a personal project where he is trying to construct a Giddyup Buttercup.

Hidden quest
If the Sole Survivor takes the holotape from his office at Atomatoys HQ, a new dialogue option will be unlocked that allows the Sole Survivor to give him the holotape and caps will be given as a reward, as well as a unique version of the Giddyup Buttercup toy called Buttercup Toy, that goes under Misc section and only has a weight of 2 instead of 8. It is currently unknown if it is required for a another hidden quest elsewhere or if it is simply for the players use and can't be accidently scrapped. When you reach the Atomatoy building after killing the mutants, inside you will see a door that requires an I.D card. To get in the room with the quest parts, get the card located upstairs over at the right of the desk in the corner on the ground.

Appearances
Arlen Glass appears only in Fallout 4.

Bugs
If the interaction with him is stopped, it may mean he will no longer speaks with the Sole Survivor.
