Neil (Fallout: New Vegas)

Neil is a first generation super mutant living in the Mojave Wasteland in 2281.

Background
Neil went to Black Mountain on Marcus's order to spy on Tabitha, an intelligent nightkin who had ousted Marcus as leader of the Black Mountain super mutant refuge. Neil's role is to divert other super mutants to Jacobstown, where they will be treated fairly. He has three distinctive scars located above his right eye.

Quests

 * Crazy, Crazy, Crazy: Neil tasks the Courier with overthrowing Tabitha from her rule. He can be persuaded (with 50 Speech) to aid the Courier by leading away the nightkin guarding Tabitha's broadcast station.

Locations
If Neil is not in his shack he will stand by to rocks outside of the crater with the to Brotherhood of Steel Paladins, to warn the player about going onto the mountain.

Appearances
Neil only appears in Fallout: New Vegas.

Bugs

 * When waiting to help you at the top of Black Mountain, Neil will give the response "whatever you do, be quick about it" no matter what you tell him. This is caused by having a lot of extra, unnecessary conditions for the "Let's go" response. For the PC, there is a fix:
 * If you accept Neil's help but enter Black Mountain from the locked gate on the southwest side (by Tabitha's room) instead of going through the checkpoints, Neil will run around randomly when you approach him and cannot be spoken to. Waiting causes his map marker to move near the domes, but he is nowhere to be found.
 * If you visit Black Mountain for the first time, Neil will wander off and can be sometimes found dead or under a rock when you visit later.
 * Often, when he is talking, his mouth movements are out of sync or aren't moving at all.
 * After meeting Neil near the crater of Black Mountain (had you passed the Speech check), he will either vanish, be glitched and get stuck, or get hung up on a rock behind him as he tries to run ahead.
