Father Clifford

Father Clifford is the reverend of Saint Monica's Church in Rivet City $$

Background
Father Clifford is 40 years old and the head of Saint Monica's Church in Rivet City. His acolyte is Diego who he has taken care of since Diego was abandoned by his father. The bond they have is akin to father and son. He is the spiritual guide for the inhabitants of Rivet City, and provides council to citizens such as Mister Lopez, who visits the church frequently and is suicidal. Before 2277, Clifford came across Marcella, a Christian missionary from the Abbey of the Road. She was delighted to find another person in the wasteland as passionate about religion as she was.

Father Clifford is normally seen in and around Saint Monica's Church but is known to roam around the inside of Rivet City talking to other residents. On occasion, Father Clifford can be found in the Muddy Rudder, lecturing anyone present on the dangers of sin in the bar. Every Sunday, he holds a mass, to which most of Rivet City's inhabitants attend.

Quests

However, if one either convinces Diego to leave the priesthood to marry Angela or gives Angela ant queen pheromones to seduce Diego, Father Clifford will be the one who has them wed during the ceremony.

Bugs
The Sunday sermon is often glitched: either Father Clifford is not present at all, but non-player characters shush each other because he is speaking, or he will be present, but not speaking. It is advisable to go to church before starting A Nice Day For a Right Wedding, as the Sunday sermon seems to get stuck because of a bug in that quest.
