The Mechanist's Costume

The Mechanist's Costume is the Fallout 3 armor worn by the eponymous self-proclaimed superhero, the Mechanist, who is hiding out in the Robot Repair Center south of Canterbury Commons in the Capital Wasteland. The armor can be obtained either by killing the Mechanist or persuading him to give up his career. Whilst it is easily identifiable that the suit is made from the remains of a Protectron, it is unknown where the black under suit comes from.

Should you be asked by Uncle Roe to solve the town's "Superhero" problem, the Mechanist's costume can be handed over to the AntAgonizer to end the town's problems. Alternatively, wearing the costume in the AntAgonizer's presence will turn her hostile.

There is a random encounter in which a child will appear and ask for your autograph while wearing this outfit or the AntAgonizer's outfit,.

In addition, wearing this costume will open unique dialogue options. For example, when asked to travel to the RobCo Facility by Moira as part of The Wasteland Survival Guide quest, a PC wearing The Mechanist's Helmet will have the option of saying "This sounds like a job for THE MECHANIST!"
