Harold (Fallout)

Harold is a unique FEV mutant who once resembled a typical ghoul, until his physiology was gradually changed by a parasitic tree he calls Bob. He survived the Great War in a Vault and has witnessed pivotal events throughout post-War history.

He is first encountered as an impoverished mutant eking out an existence in Old Town, remembering the Master before his rise in Fallout. In Fallout 2, he is the foreman and mayor of Gecko. Harold ultimately crossed the country and became rooted to the ground, and in Fallout 3 he is worshipped as a deity at Oasis.

Harold is a kind-hearted soul with a comical personality. He made many friends throughout his travels, potentially including the Vault Dweller, the Chosen One, and the Lone Wanderer. He is kind to children and the disabled, and treats his branching appendage with respect. Despite his afflictions, Harold remains light-hearted (if somewhat deranged) and strives to do right by his fellow wastelanders.
