This mod aims to add the beloved talking deathclaw companion, Goris, to Fallout: New Vegas. Using the modding resource model of Goris, created by prodlimen, I have integrated the basic features from other companions within the game to the model, including:

- Companion Wheel
- Tactics
- Trading
- Dismissal
- Dialogue

I have also added a dialogue choice relating to Goris' backstory as an Enclave creation, his time at Vault 13 with his pack, and his travels with the Chosen One. I aim to add more dialogue and flesh out the character more within the future.

Goris can be found waiting for a visitor, atop the bridge by the Dinky the T-Rex at Novac, and can be recruited without any prior prerequisites. When dismissed, he will either be sent back to the bridge, or to the Lucky 38 presidential suite, depending on the player's choice.

This is my first modification and really my first time using the GECK, as I really wanted a companion mod of the amazing model created by prodilmen, but the current one that existed wasn't exactly to my liking, so I thought I'd have a go at making the mod myself. Because of this, there may be bugs within the mod that I have not found, but I have tried to test it to the best of my ability.

A notable issue that I have found is that Goris will attack the player if you attack him a number of times, but usually, he will stop and return to normal when you put away your weapon. I will be trying to find a fix to this.

Installation is simple, just drag and drop the files into the Data folder of your Fallout: New Vegas directory, and enable the .esp file through the launcher, or a mod manager of your choice.

Thank you, and I hope you enjoy it!
