Derek Pacion

Derek Pacion is a young resident of Canterbury Commons in 2277.

Relationships
Derek is Ernest Roe's nephew. Derek often travels to the Republic of Dave to see his friend Ralph, Dave's son. Derek also knew Scott Wollinski before Scott became the Mechanist. Derek is responsible for escalating the conflict in Canterbury Commons to dangerous levels; an optional conversation topic reveals that Derek convinced Scott to become a superhero and fight the AntAgonizer after she destroyed a robot.

Quests

 * The Superhuman Gambit: Asking him about the Mechanist and AntAgonizer reveals that Joe Porter knows the AntAgonizer's real name. This information can be used in a Speech check to get the AntAgonizer to peacefully surrender. If the player character finishes the quest, he will complain about how boring it is in Canterbury Commons. If all of Canterbury Commons characters are murdered, the reward for the quest is given by Derek who, like all children in Fallout 3, cannot die.

Other interactions

 * Derek will suggest different superhero identities for the player character depending on his or her attributes: "Super-Humongous" for characters with high Strength or Endurance; "Awesome-Claw" for characters with high Agility or Charisma; "The Brilliant Shadow" for characters with high Perception or Intelligence; or "Incredibly Lucky Guy/Girl" for characters with high Luck. If the player character has no high attributes, he'll say they wouldn't make a good superhero.
 * If the Lone Wanderer kills Uncle Roe, Derek will no longer interact with them; he will only say, "Go away, I hate you."
