Description:
===============

This mod is an improved version of 'Brooke - Lone Wanderer' by NeilUK02, released with his permission. Brooke is a fully voiced lady adventurer who can be found by chance somewhere out there in the wasteland. Her interests include travelling with her dog Ben and blasting raiders and supermutants with high powered energy weapons (backstory and quest not included).

As a character, she provides 3 functions:
NPC - She follows a set routine on each weekday, if you follow her, she can act as a well-armed tour guide of sorts. Numerous dialogue options are available, all voiced.
Vendor - You can trade with her at any time, and she can sell you unique armor, clothing and weapons if you visit her at her house during weekends.
Companion - If you have good karma and no other followers, she can be persuaded to join you in your travels.

Also added are several new unique encounters available through dialogue with Brooke and Ben. Certain conditions are required for some of them and they all vary in difficulty and loot drops (not all of them are enemies though). New items, npc's and creatures abound, try and discover them all.

Brooke starts out at the top of the Bridge Tower at Rivet City after you've activated the mod, make a save there beforehand if you want to meet her straight away. You'll need her house key or your lockpick skill at 100 to access her house. Hint: karma is your friend. Don't forget to talk to Ben, he has some cool dialogue options as well.
