Daniel Bird

Daniel Bird is the Vice President of the United States and an Enclave executive under President Dick Richardson in 2241.

Background
Elected at an unknown time, the Vice President is a small nervous-looking man wearing a food-stained suit. Daniel Bird was a volunteer test subject for an experimental vaccine against FEV Curling-13. It backfired, frying his brain, which has resulted in him spending most of his post-accident time standing idly around in his office and mumbling to himself. President Richardson states that his spelling ability has actually improved. Most of Bird's monologue indicates that he is obsessed with the correct use of spelling and grammar.

Appearances
Daniel Bird appears only in Fallout 2.

Behind the scenes
Nearly all his dialogue comes from absurd but real quotes from Dan Quayle, US Vice President serving during the term of George Bush Sr. (1989–93), or slight variations thereof (such as substituting words like "Enclave" into the quotes). Also, one can connect his name, "Bird", to "Quayle".
