Doctor Borous

Doctor Borous is a scientist living in the Big Empty in 2281.

Background
A post-War staff member, mentioned by Klein, Borous is an expert with animals, and does experiments and projects on animals. Borous was a child prodigy but was bullied in school, first because he had a crush on the same girl as his nemesis Richie Marcus. Second because he adamantly believed in the anti-communist environment of the time. Borous has a darker side however, his cruel treatment of his Gabe, the ripper and various surgical tools and cages in his basement, indicates he abused and may have killed animals as an outlet. His demeanor hasn't changed over the last 200 years.

After Gabe's bowl is returned to him, he feels an overwhelming sense of regret towards how he treated his dog, as Gabe was a loyal companion. This feeling is quickly repressed however and Borous' personality remains unchanged on the surface.

Appearances
Doctor Borous appears in the Fallout: New Vegas add-on, Old World Blues.
