I'm feeling much better now. I told Gran I wasn't gonna let some mole rat beat me.

Austin Engill is a child resident of Vault 81 in Fallout 4.

Background

Austin's adoptive grandmother is Dr. Penske, who took him in after his parents died. He is described as having hair that is a "mole rat's nest"[1] by Horatio. The boy is friendly with many of the vault's residents, including Maria Summerset, who gives him extra helpings at the cafeteria. He is also the best friend of Erin Combes, with whom he goes to school.[2] They spend a lot of time together, though he rarely visits when her parents are home, due to their constant fighting.[3]

When the Sole Survivor first enters the vault, he will offer to give them a tour in return for five caps. Alternately, the Sole Survivor can persuade him to do it for free or decline.
