Antler

Antler is the name given to the brahmin skull that Davison's nightkin worship. It is in the basement level of the REPCONN test site in 2281.

Background
Antler is a brahmin skull that Davison, a former captain in the Master's Army, picked up while he and his troop of nightkin wandered the wasteland. Nightkin have developed a form of schizophrenia from prolonged Stealth Boy use and so, because of this, they believe that the skull gives them orders and guidance.

Davison relates that his troops were suffering mentally from being separated from the Master, and that since finding Antler to worship "everything's been going really well." Incidentally, Antler acts as a conduit for higher-tier planning that Davison would otherwise abandon in favor of brute force.

It's Antler's suggestion (in Davison's mind) that the Courier should help with the ghoul holed up in the room containing the Stealth Boy information, and it's Antler's confirmation of the Courier's discovery (that the Stealth Boy shipment was not at the REPCONN facility) that convinces Davison that the Courier is telling the truth. Antler is housed in the REPCONN test site basement, where he is guarded by Davison.

Appearances
Antler appears only in Fallout: New Vegas.
