Mod:Fallout: The Frontier/Charlene Yong

<!--

Seneschal Charlene Yong is a high-ranking member of the Crusaders.

She is viewed as cold and emotionless by some members such as Arissa to the degree that she has a following of dislike within the organization, with people viewing her as a "bitch". However, this is not her fault as she is only this way due to an experiment performed on her, and if her emotions go out of control, it can result in her telepathically causing other people's heads to burst.

Background
When she was a teenager, she discovered she had a gift of "empathy" and "visions" after being accidentally shocked by electricity. Although Tasha believes it as a psychic gift from God, Charlene thinks the real answer is more mundane, suspecting her mother was affected by FEV or radiation, noting lots of people born in her area around her time had birth defects.

She was once part of the Brotherhood as a scribe. She was involved with the battle of Helios One and was attacked by a radscorpion. She was saved by Elijah who stopped her bleeding and removed her venom. Since then, she looked up to Elijah who was also fond of Veronica Santangelo as well.

Unfortunately, Elijah took a great interest in her pineal gland, and it is suggested he wanted to be able to use and weaponize Charlene's supposed psychic power for himself and to use it against the NCR. He wanted to perform a surgery on her to "enhance" her cybernetically. The surgery was incredibly painful for her and done without anesthesia. Many surgeries later, Elijah was unsatisfied with the result and abandoned her in a shack outside Freeside, as he went to search for better technology to make the operation a success. She never saw him again and began to resent her once grandfather-like figure.

Charlene was left damaged, particularly her amygdala which meant she had trouble processing emotions like happiness and anger. She worked with Tasha and Hector Clements in an attempt to make her back to normal. Charlene hopes one day, God will answer her prayer.

Quests

 * Are You Lonesome Tonight?: Elyan, Charlene's former lover, is searching for her. The Courier can inform her of this which makes her emotional and touched, although she tells the Courier to pass on a message to Elyan that their relationship was just a fling, not because she actually means it, but in order for her to move past the painful Brotherhood chapter of her past. She gives the Courier an engagement ring to prove the message is from her. If a Speech 50 check is used instead of a Medicine 50 check, Charlene will agree to meet Elyan at the library. The two happily reunite and she decides to stay at the library to treat his illness.
 * Knights Hospitaller: Hosford Abernathy Medical Centre is home to Lord Putrid who is involved in horrific human experimentation. Charlene wishes the Courier to take Lord Putrid out and secure the hospital.
 * Chekhov's Gun: As part of this NCR mission, Charlene may be executed by the Courier.
 * Head Games: Charlene has fallen into a coma due to a brain tumor and needs help.
 * A Matter of Faith: During the Legion questline, Charlene accidentally kills Mollie by using her powers to make her head burst.

Other interactions

 * Charlene will be found at the top floor of RobCo after the board meeting.
 * Charlene acts as a doctor, healing the Courier from addictions and radiation, free of charge.
 * If Dead Money is completed, Charlene can be informed Elijah has been killed. She reveals she imagined what it would be like to kill Elijah herself, but thanks the Courier and hopes his death was gruesome.
