Bloppo

Bloppo was the dog companion of Maul.

Background
Maul found the dog in a cage, and although at first wanted to eat him, decided against it, stating he was "too weak to kill yet too scrawny to eat." He began to feed the dog to make him stronger, and ended up enjoying his company. He named him after a character in the Grognak & the Ruby Ruins video game. Maul described him as bad at killing, but good at sniffing and licking. He called the dog his "first friend, and best." In addition, the dog introduced Maul to the world of Grognak the Barbarian by way of digging up an old book.

Bloppo passed away after he was taken from Maul by other super mutants, his owner unable to save him. When sharing his thoughts on burying his friend, he tells the Vault Dweller that his inability to prevent Bloppo's death was a sign of weakness. He shared that Grognak was strong enough to protect his friends, and that if he becomes as strong, he would be able to do the same.
