Let me start by saying from a lore perspective Fawkes could be a purple molerat with nipples for eyes and it'd still be fine. His mutations are a result of FEV experiments, not just the standard type of exposure that creates your basic supermutants. The fact that his memory is wiped but his inteligence is still at least that of an average human even strongly suggests his mutations weren't as severe as those that come with the regular FEV.

With that out of the way I can be honest about this mod. It started as a joke and I never planned on releasing it (or even keeping it in my own load order for that matter). But I ended up really liking the change so after giving it some thought and realising it doesn't even break immersion I've decided to share it with all five of you who still play Fallout 3.

Now make no mistake here, what I've told you so far sounds quite serious but this new appearance for Fawkes is in fact very cursed and pretty much guaranteed to make you laugh (at least upon first seeing him). Just imagine a gigachad factory worker from a soviet propaganda poster on even more steroids. That's by the way why I didn't upload a screenshot. I'm really convinced a still image wouldn't do this justice and I urge you to go in blind here.

If that's something you're absolutely not interested in (please consider it though) keep reading for a detailed list of changes:

- I reduced his size to that of a tall human
- His supermutat body model remains unchanged, his texture is more human like with pink skin, clean teeth and eyes as well as a buzzcut
- He still wears his vault pants but a pristine version of a supermutant harness as armor
- His default sledge is replaced with a supersledge, his gatling laser is ever so slightly nerfed because otherwise you'd never even have the chance to see him in melee action which is where the real fun lies with this mod
- He is also essential because most people use mods to turn their followers essential and I didn't want this mod to revert that and also a swole gymbro like him shouldn't be able to die
And lastly for the truly impatient ones, here's a picture of him I took with my phone.

Now please do yourself a massive favor and install this, even if it's just for a minute of pure laughter.
