Argyle

Argyle is the now dead but once "stalwart Ghoul manservant" of adventurer Herbert Dashwood in 2277.

Background
Argyle was born before the Great War and first met Dashwood in 2241, when the adventurer stole his girlfriend. However, despite the misunderstanding, they became good friends.

If radio dramas inspired by their adventures hosted by Galaxy News Radio are to be true, Argyle was a very frank, untrusting individual constantly exasperated by his master's recklessness and how easily he fell for women. Nevertheless, he was very loyal, refusing to abandon him and always saving him from any dire situations, no matter how much force was required.

Argyle was a master of unarmed combat, practicing an undisclosed style of Martial Arts, being so skilled he could rip out an opponent's heart or kill a Mirelurk with his bare hands. He apparently liked to collect martial arts memorabilia as he carried a Bobblehead of Vault Boy practicing Martial Arts. He was also a gifted shot although he very rarely used his gun, a 10mm Pistol. He was a huge fan of the Shady Sands Shuffle maneuver.

The final adventure with Dashwood came when Dashwood was seduced by Penelope Chase into revealing to her the secret underground village of Rockopolis that Dashwood and Argyle were charged with keeping secret. Dashwood, ever easily controlled by dames, took her to it where she revealed she was in fact a Slaver double agent for Paradise Falls. Before she could kill Dashwood, Argyle ripped out her heart with an attack of his dubbed the "Eagle Claw". Unfortunately, it was too late for either Argyle or Dashwood to stop the slavers from attacking the village, and they were separated in all the confusion.

Effects of player actions
Argyle's corpse can be found in Rockopolis. This information can then be given to Dashwood, much to the ex-adventurer's sorrow.
