Donovan

Donovan is the Reilly's Rangers engineer first seen on the rooftop of the Statesman Hotel in the year 2277.

Background
Donovan was born in 2242. He is the team's technical specialist. He's an expert at hacking, repairs, and electronics. He is a smaller man, but his build is deceptive, and he can fight as well as the rest of the team.

One of the entries in Reilly's terminal implies that he frequently fights with Brick. According to Reilly's terminal, Donovan was also either a member of the Brotherhood of Steel or at least a contact of theirs before joining Reilly's Rangers.

Quests

 * Reilly's Rangers: Donovan holds Donovan's wrench, a quest item used for repairing the elevator in the Statesman Hotel. If Donovan doesn't die during the quest he will return to the Ranger compound where he can repair the player character's gear for less than the cost other merchants would charge.

Effects of player's actions

 * After completing "Reilly's Rangers" one may encounter Donovan while traveling through the Capital Wasteland. Soon after he appears he should engage in a firefight against three super mutants (these can be brutes, masters or overlords dependent on level). When spoken to, he will either thank the Lone Wanderer for their assistance (if one helped him kill the super mutants), lightly chastise them for just watching the fight (if one did not assist him or talk to him before the super mutants appeared) or get killed by the super mutants. Regardless, he will give the player character a mini nuke and say that Reilly sent him (if he isn't killed; if he's killed, the mini nuke can be found on his corpse). After speaking with the Wanderer, Donovan will make his way back to the Ranger compound.

Inventory

 * * Donovan is the only member of Reilly's Rangers who wears the Ranger battle helmet.

Bugs
