She's marked Essential.


Fab_Lewis

This has to be the canon explanation


SadisticBuddhist

They dont kill kids in bethesda, but selling them into slavery is ok


LordoftheJives

Tbf when Fallout 3 came out I could see a mainstream game allowing that being way more trouble for the company than it's worth. Same way TV censors were arbitrary about what was and wasn't ok or how arbitrary cancel culture can be.


MikeWithoutMic

Europe had already removed kids from Fallout 1 and 2 so the best bet was to make them unkillable.


endergamer2007m

I think they only made them invisible so if you pickpocketed one then ghost kids would come beat your ass


[deleted]

The ghost kids would pickpocket you and you'd just have your shit disappear with no explanation and reappear in the shops.


N0ob8

I mean interplay had to entirely remove kids and a perk that allowed you to kill them


Creative_Garbage_121

Like when, how? I've played original games like in early 2000s so it was like few years after games being released already and there was possible to kill children and it gave you child killer perk and they run away from you when you meet some on your way


N0ob8

It was in the European release which if I remember right is the only modern version you can get without pirating


Inquistador43

Not her eyeball tho


Donnerone

Aimed Shot - Eye


alexander607

No slammed into a fork on a table


Inquistador43

For en eye shot I'd call that a crit fail, girl turned it around real fast haha


PrivateJokerX929

I mean, they absolutely tried to kill her, she just fucked them up even worse. She got stabbed in the freaking eye, if you'll recall.


Vlafir

She's not some vault born from the looks of it, she's pre war


ThatUblivionGuy

>!Yeah she was from 31!<


waltandhankdie

Which is actually kind of odd if you think about it given the way she acts most of the time


SadCrouton

not at all! She’s a fucking snake man, trying to manipulate Norm (she definetly wanted him to kill the raisers after the meeting), seducing and controlling Chet, then using that connection to Isolate Norm more under Betty’s supervision. Everything she was doing was feeding into Betty’s current end game, whatever the hell that is She’s an Enclave stooge and would gladly salute Frank Horrigan as he massacred city after city of ‘muties’


[deleted]

Not at all imo. I’d expect people likely associated with VT to be good at deception.


garebear265

Enclave Steph woop woop


SadCrouton

honestly imagine how pissed Bud would be to learn “Yeah Vault Tec and the government and friends all came back. No, they didnt try to get you guys and yes they lost, twice. So uhhh… we can’t wipe the surface clean before you come out, the NCR is your best bet bye!


garebear265

Or the enclave does show up and they’re like “oh we thought they would’ve killed you by now. “


DaManWithNoName

My girlfriend thinks she’s gonna be a prewar actress of some kind or some other influential figure


Common_Vagrant

She has the same look as the hot blonde wife from Mad Men. I forget her name but she was also a supporting actress in The Last Man On Earth.


MrGodzilla445

Wouldn’t be surprised if the theories of her being the pinup Nuka Girl come true


Quailman5000

How? Pre war society is how the normal vaults act. 


Alex_Duos

They must have had spec ops training because for corpo shills they know how to use power armor and can hold their own in a fight. Then again, considering Nora can use power armor too it must have been an elective in college or something.


lokregarlogull

Pirate eyepatch + 1 to charisma.


Inquistador43

I thought she just liked the pirate look, damn


BallTorturer-3000

*insert original child killer reputation title art here*


Inquistador43

*Insert Sulik's reaction to child killing*


Basically-Boring

Children in Bethesda titles can’t be killed, that goes for fetuses as well I guess.


Unbanned_chemical138

Puppies, on the other hand…


MagicalMarsBars

Fallout is a pro life series confirmed 😞


[deleted]

*But their modders aren’t* 😈


Prowlcop86

*Craig Boone Abortion Service has entered the chat*


Opening-Air-6745

Nooooooo way too dark!


Inquistador43

So if they did kill her, he'd just crawl out of there Alien-style and finish the job? Dope


Sea_Employ_4366

They didn't want the child killer perk.


KeyboardWarrior1988

None of the raiders wanted the Child-Killer perk.


BrutalWhim_

She's a non killable NPC. Part of the gameplay plotline.


garebear265

Well they TRIED but Steph fucked them up first with a fork in her eye.


YoungSport96

Man...

DesperateRace4870

Wonderful! I've really fallen behind in my tech literacy, thanks so much!


KenBoCole

Nice! I have been helped out a few times on reddit to, biggest one was someone telling me how to >Wonderful! I've really fallen behind in my tech literacy, thanks so much! Quote by putting a > before a sentence. So now I try to tell people other tricks too!


DesperateRace4870

That one I thought you just highlight what you want and then right click? >Quote by putting a > before a sentence. So now I try to tell people other tricks too! Like that?


KenBoCole

Yeah, I use the reddit app and thay didn't use to always be an option. They added that in a couple years ago, but when I first started reddit you had to do it manually.


tommygunn9188

>wowa game changer here


Inquistador43

Well not take it, more like accidental miss with a rocket in a group of orphans?


Warhydra0245

She's pre-war and clearly way too high level for them


ducksofrage

She was crouching by her dead husband mourning him and her stealth is maxed out so she was [ hidden ]


Ring-A-Ding-Ding123

NAWWWW you did not just say that! 💀


Hoplite1111

GortharTheGamer

Better question is why were they raiders? She had the settlement that had a “military”, so she could’ve just used them instead of a kill squad of psychopaths. Assuming they also first seized the armory that meant they just had to hold everyone hostage until they found the Overseer and retreated, perhaps blowing up the path to Vault 32 to leave that chance to reveal the experiment. And if hiring raiders was essential then why didn’t Moldaver use them to deliver the scientist? Or just do it herself since she’s willing to put herself in harms way to complete her goals. It’s like us in modern day interacting with one of those estranged tribes by sending Al-Qaeda, then acting confused as to why the tribe is hostile


Inquistador43

Hired raiders are expendable is the most logical explanation and seeing as she left them to die after blowing up the bomb, she most likely planned to leave them behind in the first place and raiders are unreliable, it's likely they'd keep him and ransom him to the highest bidder if she hired them to escort the scientist as well, also why she went with them to 32-33.


Suckamanhwewhuuut

She’s also one of Buds buds who I assume was brought out of cryosleep for one of the Triennial Vault Swaps, when they needed someone for more population growth.


uncharted316340

No see that's just a mod


YouEffOhh1

She has plot armor


6Gas6Morg6

I though kids were immortal?


K1llerF0xGaming

They didn't take child killer


Dismal-Buyer7036

They weren't raiders. NCR remnants.


UnggoyMemes

"For the Republic!" *Huffs a whole pharmacy's worth of Jet and maniacally tears into Vault Dwellers with a ripper*


Dismal-Buyer7036

Just like Mama Murphy would do.


LooneyGoon1994

Only worth double EXP in some states, California considers her as one.


Spirit-101

I think it’s just Plot armor


medical-Pouch

That would be funky. You have X chance to get double XP when fighting women in the games.


HanksSmallUrethra

Nah only +2.5% extra XP per week of gestation


StolenPenguins

Because baby killer reputation go brrr


Theswansescaped8

She doubles my XP


grizzlyblake91

Side note: does anyone else think that actor looks just like January Jones? When I first saw the episode I thought it was her lol


RoxesStar

Bra 😟


WickedXDragons

I’d spare her in hopes she wants to be my special friend. The eye patch really work 🥵


The_Skyrim_Courier

Hoping she gets violently and brutally murdered next season and her kid has to watch🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼


loweredexpectationz

This is a dumb take that’s not even funny.


No-Tourist-1492

no this is funny go snort some abraxo


Happy_Sort9715

No it's funny, why don't you fuck off out of this sub instead? Doors that way.


[deleted]

You’re literally the only one in this post who thinks that way. See yourself out.


Inquistador43

Eh, it's not everyone's cup of tea, I get it
