Strong



Strong is a super mutant and a possible companion in Fallout 4. He can be found locked up in a cell at the top of Trinity Tower along with his teacher, Rex Goodman, where the two have been imprisoned by other super mutants.

Background
A usual-looking super mutant, Strong seeks to find the "milk of human kindness". This is a line from the play Macbeth (Act 1:Scene 5), cited to him by Rex Goodman while trying to teach the super mutants about William Shakespeare's plays. Strong seems to have taken this metaphor a bit more literally and believes that if he can find the milk and drink it, it will gift super mutants the strength that makes humans successful. Strong is proficient with heavy weapons, like missile launchers.

Effects of player's actions

 * Eventually as his approval of the Sole Survivor increases, he will admit that he has learned to respect them.
 * Finally, once he idolizes the Sole Survivor, he will tell he has made the decision to make the Sole Survivor his leader, and his Berserk perk will be given.

 * Killing Enemies.(This mainly is silent, he'll remark positive lines from time to time, and it's not enough on it's own to get him to idolize you)
 * Helping others. (Radiant quests mainly like Preston's repeating radiant settlement quests he'll like if you choose the bottom dialog when accepting/helping and is a quick way to get him to Idolize you; Other "helpful" quests he'll dislike.

 * Aggressive dialogue choices. (This mainly refers to unfriendly NPC and will still quite often dislike Sarcasm or negative responses).

Appearances
Strong appears only in Fallout 4.

Bugs

 * If sending Strong to a settlement with 0 population, water, and food he will vanish from the game after a couple of days. The only way to fix is to summon him via console command.
 * A possible fix is to build food and water and then wait several days.
 * Another possible fix if a bed is not present is to build a bed then save and reload while away from the settlement (this was tested at the Red Rocket truck stop).
 * On some occasions, the message showing that Strong likes/dislikes this does not appear even when a certain amount of time for that action has past, thereby making it even more difficult to gain his Berserk perk.
 * Entering a suit of power armor can result in Strong's approval skyrocketing upward, despite the game saying he dislikes it.
 * May become unable to move, and just kneel at the door where you enter a building spewing comments about the smell or whatever. Fast travel can fix this.
 * Strong may be unable to move correctly when wielding a minigun. He will often stand in place when being attacked, uselessly pointing his minigun at the ground.
