Puppet Man aus Fallout

Upon entering Vault 77, the dweller was confused as to where the other residents were, screaming "HEY! You forgot all the other fucking people!!" In the first few months, the Vault 77 dweller went through the initial panic and depression caused by being locked alone in a vault. One year, three months and twelve days after the sealing, the dweller opened a crate that was left in the Vault, marked "P13X U.S. GOVERNMENT ISSUE PUPPET RATION." Inside, he found puppets of a dog (later named Reverend Hound, the local clergyman and sheriff), a grandma, and a king. Over the following months, each developed a personality, as he engaged in an extended puppet show to stave off boredom and ease his loneliness.

He came to regard his new neighbors as Grandma, the King, and Reverend Hound. Later, he heard a voice from inside the crate and discovered a Vault Boy puppet he had originally overlooked. One day, the king was "murdered" and found with his head ripped off. The Puppet Man asked the Vault Boy puppet if he did it, as he doubted Granny or Reverend Hound could ever do such a thing. Vault Boy "confessed" not only to the murder, but also admitted to the fact that the Puppet Man was his accomplice. The Puppet Man realized that Reverend Hound would come for them both and decided to leave the vault. His initial excursion lasted less than a minute; after opening the vault door, he encountered a gigantic radscorpion holding a car in each claw. He immediately closed the door and decided to "sleep on it."

The Vault 77 dweller was eventually successful in leaving the vault, and acquired a giant ant named Mr. Pinch as a mount. He was very optimistic in regards to his journey, and mused to himself that while it was hot out for December, he was never one for snow anyway. He also encountered a mysterious one-armed ghoul, wearing a vault suit without a visible number.

The Puppet Man was later captured by two slavers, and warned them not to mess with his Vault Boy puppet, as the puppet was crazy and had "killed before." One of the two slavers, Bob, contemplated whether to make the Puppet Man a slave or if he should serve him as food; the second remarked that he was pretty hungry. The Puppet Man killed Bob, then tracked the second man to his base where he was in the middle of warning fellow slavers about Bob's fate. The slavers were interrupted by a repetitive clanging noise, signaling the Vault 77 dweller's arrival, and he is called by the name the "Puppet Man" for the first time. He kills the slavers bare-handed, save for the Vault Boy puppet on his right hand, shortly after.

The Puppet Man's location and living status is currently unknown. The Lone Wanderer can find the Puppet Man's Vault 77 jumpsuit in Paradise Falls slavers' possession, along with a holotape labeled "Burn this Goddamn Jumpsuit." In it, an unnamed slaver requests that the jumpsuit be destroyed fearing that a "stranger with no name" may come back for revenge. However, nobody has followed through with burning it. The Vault 77 jumpsuit grants a +5 to both Unarmed and Melee Weapons. Supposedly, the sight of it "freaks the boys out."
