Cornelius

"WHY DON’T YOU ASK THAT NO-GOOD FARREL!? MAYBE HE’LL SELL YOU THE WATCH HE STOLE FROM ME! Now if you don’t mind, I’m quite busy. I got to shave the brahmin."

Cornelius is the old man who runs Rose's Bed and Breakfast in Modoc in the year 2241. He seems to have a form of senile dementia, and it is hard to obtain any information from him as "certain phrases seem to set him off".

The reason that the Bed and Breakfast is called Rose's is due to the fact that he named it for her, and he seems very sentimental towards her.

Quests
Cornelius has lost his gold pocket watch. Find it and return it to him: Cornelius claims his inherited gold pocket watch was stolen by Farrel, his best friend for over 30 years, and asks the Chosen One to retrieve it for him.
