Description: Herbert 'Daring' Dashwood isn't all he's cracked up to be. Perhaps you are inclined to look into his safe. You might catch on to a trail of interesting notes and items from there. This is mainly a note trail quest / weapons mod.

What this mod does: This mod adds a series of notes, items, and weapons to Dashwood's safe, the footlocker infront of the Death Claw Sanctuary, Dave's safe, Dukov's liquor cabinet, and Argyle's corpse. The intent is to add some character to the Wasteland's most interesting people. If you have any mods that effect these containers then either don't use this mod, or place it last in the load order. It uses all vanilla materials (but no over-writes) so there should be no other interference.

Requirements: This mod REQUIRES Broken Steel. I used some of the textures and effects.

Install: Copy 'Despicable Dashwood' esp to your Fallout 3 Data Folder. Check the appropriate box in FOMM or Data Manager.

Uninstall: Delete 'Despicable Dashwood' esp.

New items:

Stargazer MR-5 (very powerful but not broken in my opinion. This is my pride and joy and got me through some tough spots)
Radiation Rifle (very lore friendly if you consider its story)
AR38 "Xombie Buster 9000" (somewhat lore friendly, at least balanced, and has an interesting story)
Peace Ray (fairly weak but is interesting due to the note attached)
Eagle Claw (Argyle's weapon of choice. Should be well balanced)
"Power Suit" Armour (this one is a stretch. If you need convincing, check the note on it)
BRAWNDO - THE THIRST MUTILATOR (thanks to Idiocracy! More for entertainment than anything else.)
Wine (2053 Port) (just a trophy really)
Various notes explaining it all

Note on new items: Some items, as noted above, are particularly strong. I created them to complement my lvl 30 character who always ends up facing Albino Radscorpions and Deathclaws. I got tired of pumping several clips into each just to get cheap glands or claws. Some of the other items are more interesting than powerful, and others actually fit in well with the FO3 experience. If you don't like them, don't use them. Pick and choose, it's up to you.

All items are accompanied by some interesting explanation notes found in the same containers. Hey, you can't say I didn't try to fit them into the FO3 lore.

Credits: Do whatever you want with this mod. If you use any of the note text or the Stargazer in your mod, just let people know where it came from.

Walkthrough: A quick walkthrough is available in the README file.
