PLEASE NOTE: The mod is an early alpha so bugs are to be expected, please feel free to report any bugs you encounter. Reports in the Discord Server are more likely to be replied too first.


I always loved Fallout 2's companions - they arguably have the most charm in the whole series but, after countless playthroughs, I was yearning for new content so I happily present to you the "Restoration Project - Companion Expansion".

It currently features 8 new companions (6 from FO2 and 2 originals).

>> This mod is only for the updated version of the Restoration Project found here, NOT the version found here on the Nexus. <<





(From left to right: Rhea, Ceri, Player, Doc Jones and Lara)





-
Companions with their own personalities, quirks, likes and dislikes.

- Many new lines of dialogue, changing by location, party composition and others.

- Companion Angela with her own unique "Relationship System".

- Full integration of the "Better Miria" mod by Endocore with new additional dialogue.

- Fully animated Talking Heads with changing backgrounds depending on location.

- And many more features to be added in future updates!

Small arms and melee companion, with various level ups.

Doc Jones:

Bio:
Doc Jones works for the New Khans of Vault 15, albeit against his will.

Description:
Unable to fight but a very capable "Utility Companion" excelling in Doctor and First Aid skills, able to level up.

Location:
Vault 15 

How to obtain:
Free him from Vault 15 and talk to him twice once he relocated to the Squatters Camp.

(Written by Green Inja)


"Red-Knuckle" Rhea:

Bio:
Rhea is a traveler and self-proclaimed "Ultimate Vigilante", she aims to free the wasteland of all evil by using her fists.

Description: A pure unarmed combatant as she is unwilling to equip any weapons, able to level up.

Ceri
:

Bio:
Ceri is Metzger's dim-witted and talkative personal slave.

Basically a Miria 2.0 but she is able to equip any weapon albeit poorly. If the Chosen One is patient enough

Angela Bishop:

Bio: It’s Angela Bishop! Mob bosses daughter and “Princess” of New Reno. In spite of her bitchy and stand-offish attitude (and hormonal tendencies, if you’re a man), she’s willing to rough it out in the wastes with you, if you treat her right.

Description: Angela is being built to be the most complex companion out there! With nearly 40 pages of script to her name so far, she’s being built up to react to almost any situation you can think of. She has a built in “trust” meter, which is changed based on how you respond to her comments about the world around her (quest completion, NPC hires, etc.). As you become more friendly or antagonistic towards her, Angela will speak to you in response to how she feels about you. Maxing out her trust meter comes with great benefits, but be careful pissing her off, as she may just leave you for good. Her combat preferences are with small guns, melee weapons, and unarmed.

Location: The Shark Club, second floor.

How to obtain:
Become a Bishop Made Man (male or female) or Kill John Bishop (only male). Then, pass a Charisma check (6-7, accordingly), a speech check (80-120), or have the Sex Appeal Trait/Sexpert Reputation (if Male).

(Written by Green Inja)

Mason:

Bio: Mason is the bodyguard and biggest fanboy of the crime boss Mr. Salvatore.

Description:
As an assignment for Mr. Salvatore, Mason has been instructed to travel with the Chosen One for greater combat experience. He’s highly skilled with “lightbringers,” but is still effective with all over weapons. He can also provide the Chosen One with a one-time-only energy weapons training session.

Location: Salvatore’s Bar, second floor.

How to obtain:
Become a Salvatore Made Man, while also maxing out Mason’s “patience” score (receive the max reward from Mason after finishing the Salvatore quests).

(Written by Green Inja and Krimson Graey)

Lil' Jesus Mordino:

Bio: Son of Big Jesus Mordino and over-aggressive jet-head, it’s Lil' Jesus Mordino! He’s willing to follow anyone looking to get into a good scrap.

Description: Highly skilled in hand-to-hand combat, and with his specialized knife “Lil' Jesus.” He is also proficient with small guns and is the best of any companion with throwing weapons. He can also provide the Chosen One with a one-time-only melee training session.

Location: The Desperado, first floor.

How to obtain: Become a Mordino Made Man, with 80+ Speech or < 5 Strength (if Male) or Speech 75+ or Sex Appeal Trait or Sexpert Reputation (if Female).

(Written by Green Inja)

Christopher Wright:

Bio: One of the many sons of Orville Wright, a crime boss of New Reno, Christopher (or Chris to his friends) is looking to get out there and explore the California Wastes.

Description: Overall great fighter and good repair skills. He can also provide the Chosen One with a one-time-only repair training session.

How to obtain:
Become a Wright Made Man and recruit him with 80+ Speech.

  • Half of Rhea's party dialogue displays as "error" I'm currently trying to find the cause of this issue. - Fixed in V.0.20.
  • If Doc Jones is in your party he will remain immobile if inside Vault 15, he will function as normal in any other map.
  • New companions are currently unavailable to be sold as slaves or healed by doctors (will be added in a future update.)
  • Lara will sometimes use Christopher's combat taunts, matter is being looked into.




Talking Heads Addon:
Compatible

Better Miria Mod:
Incompatible as it's already integrated into this mod (credits to Endocore for the original mod).

Armored Talking Heads: Only compatible if using RPU - Talking Heads Addon with it's patch.

EcCo: Now compatible out the box! (Delete the old patch if using version 0.30.0 or above.)

Others: Any mod adding new NPCs to the game is likely to be incompatible.
