Typhon

Typhon is an elderly ghoul living in Broken Hills in Fallout 2.

Background
An elderly ghoul with exceedingly white skin, and intelligence fairly gleaming from his eyes. Born before the Great War he suffered alongside his father Set : former king of Necropolis. Unlike his father he grew up as a ghoul, never knowing any other way of existence. As a result it helped him acclimate to his new condition, developing a good sense of humor. Such as with his place of dwelling, the Old Ghoul's Home.

After the fall of Necropolis Typhon gambled for a time, amassing a small fortune as a foot-racer. However, by 2241, he forgot that the change in currency made his bottle caps worthless.

Quests
Typhon's Treasure: Typhon asks the player to fetch him a number of items: A Cat's Paw, rubber doll, and some rot gut. Afterwards, he will reveal the location of his stash (and spawn with a damaged rubber doll).

Appearances
Typhon appears only in Fallout 2.

Behind the scenes

 * In Greek mythology Typhon was the final son of Gaia and Tartarus, sent to kill Zeus for imprisoning the Titans, and the father of Cerberus, the Hydra, Chimera, and Sphinx.
 * The Greeks also made a connection with Typhon and the Ancient Egyptian god Set. This reference connects Typhon with his father.
