About this mod
A Lucy West companion mod built from the ground up for Tale of two Wastelands. Such a mod existed for Fallout 3 but was never ported, therefore, I took it upon myself.
She is recruitable after the completion of "Blood Ties".
For TTW 3.3.X
Includes JIP CCC Icon

Update 2.03 Adds some TTW DLC support:
The Pitt:
When you enter the marketplace at the Pitt, Lucy will have all her goods remove and be equipped with a slave outfit like yourself. When you get your equipment back, Lucy's original equipment will be returned to her.
Mothership Zeta:
When you get abducted, Lucy West will be set to wait and will be placed in the cell across from you. She will, just like you, have everything in her inventory removed and will regain it once you get your gear again.
Be sure to have her follow you when you leave the cell.
Added a quick script addition to have her heal her health after combat ends.
Update 2.02 Adds the ability to set a custom home for Lucy West.
Update 2.01 includes a minor addition to Lucy West. The main point of the update is to provide some form of finality to the line from the wiki which reads:
" She seems to have an attraction to the player character, as after finishing dialogue with her she requests the Lone Wanderer see her when visiting Megaton. "
Previously she stops at friendship with a disclaimer stating that you can see things appear to be deeper for her. Now, after the completion of the main quest of Fallout 3, a new line will appear "Hey, Lucy?"
This will lead to the following options:
1. You say you want to talk about you two: You either confess or you reject her feelings. If you reject her she will run away and will not join you again.
2. You say goodbye and end the conversation there and cannot bring it up again.
3. If you are not her friend (i.e. rejected her previously) she will say she does not feel anything for you and will continue following you as normal.
I have also changed the Mannequin race to something that better reflects Lucy West's race. But the hair style and things are identical to previously. refer to images.
Because my ElevenLabs subscription has already ended, new lines could not be generated. So only about 3 addition hellos/goodbyes were introduced by it. All lines used for the conversation are spiced existing lines.
I have also added a custom home set option to change Lucy's home location to wherever you want.
Enjoy!
Update 2.0 is out!
With the assistence of ElevenLab's subscription with AI voice cloning, I have both replaced old lines and added new lines to the mix.
I have added additional idle chatter lines (total of 34 lines). A line should play once around 15 minutes.
I have added an additional commentary at the end of the main quest where you can choose to be Lucy's friend (which adds additional lines) or to deny her friendship.
I have also added a new version of a mannequin edit for Lucy West. There are two versions. Refer to the images.
Enjoy!

Lucy West is a character the Lone Wanderer meets in Megaton and she asks you to deliver a letter to her brother, Ian. I was quite disappointed with Fallout 3's selection of companions, especially by the fact that, among other characters, Lucy West was not one of them. This mod changes that.
Following the successful completion of "Blood Ties", Lucy West will have the option to recruit her. She can be found in Megaton.
The Femaleadult04dc voice type was used to expand her dialogue options when interacting with her as a follower. Dialogue options include Following/firing, waiting, trading and the tactics menu.
Her inventory was not touched by this mod so no direct changes to the NPC were made.
THINGS TO NOTE:
This follower was built using Caprius's Follower guide and scripts from Tammer's Custom Framework tutorial as I have no experience in creating follower mods by myself. Everything was followed to the letter, however, some things need to be remembered:
MOD FEATURES:
- After completing Blood Ties, speaking to Lucy and dismissing her, she can be recruited from her home.
- She will follow the player just like a normal companion anywhere you go.
- She can wait, be dismissed (Including to L38), traded with and have her tactics be changed. Her companion wheel is also working.
- She has Idle Chatter. A timer was set and a random percentage condition was added to each line which means that you should get a idle chatter line once every 18 minutes to an hour, at least.
- She comments on specific locations in the wasteland, New Vegas desert and some DLC.
Refer to the below tab for a list of dialogue already added:
- Little Lamplight
- Megaton
- Nellis Airfield abandoned town where you get bombarded
- Arefu (At the town bridge entrance, not in the town)
- BigTown between the bridge and the centre of town
- Dunwich building outside the door and inside the building.
- Point Lookout as follows:
- When leaving the point before the waterfront.
- Outside the Ghoul's mansion
- Outside the cathedral
- Rivet City Marketplace
- GoodSprings Saloon
- GoodSprings Exterior
- Oasis
- Novac Gift shop
- Vault 108 when entering the first corridor after the vault door
- Pitt DLC bridge at the start
- Pitt DLC Near the statue before entering the Haven building
- Primm entrance bridge
- Mojave outpost before entering. Lucy will comment on the statue
It is possible that some were missed, however, this is the full extent of the location/DLC commentary
