Melissa is a somewhat minor character in the grander scheme of things. Although she has a part to play in the "Oh My Pappa" quest which can decide the fate of the great Khans, she then takes a back seat role being in their encampment by the quarry. Now this changes! Now after completion of the following quests, she will be able to be recruited and follow you around where you go:
- "Oh My Pappa"
- "Don't make a beggar of me"
As simple as that, once the quests are completed, approach her in the Great Khan Encampment in the quarry and she can be hired.
The original NPC was used and this seems to be all quests the NPC is involved that would need to be passed before hiring her.
This follower was built using my Blank Slate Companion template: https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/86386
The follower is feature complete Refer to technical) and no further updates are planned.
TECHNICAL:
No clone was used for this mod because New Vegas actually wanted to cooperate with me this time.
ElevenLab's voice cloning was used on Melissa to try fill in the gaps in her voice lines. No other voicelines in that voice type had the New Zealand Accent and this resulted in some lines not having proper lines. Some lines were produced but not many. (ElevenaLabs cannot do non american accents properly it seems)
She has some Location dialogue (Only 4):
- Goodsprings
- Mojave Outpost
- Red Rock Canyon
- The Strip
ALSO NOTE:
According to the Fallout New Vegas wiki the following is mentioned under notes:
"
This means that if you are disliked by the Khans before completing "Don't make a beggar of me" it means that she will not be hirable since both quests need to be completed to hire her.
This also means that if your reputation with the Khans are low, Melissa will still travel with you if the quests are completed and this is in line with vanilla Fallout New Vegas' interactions.
MOD FEATURES:
- She will follow the player just like a normal companion anywhere you go.
- She can wait, be dismissed (Including to the Lucky 38), traded with and have her tactics be changed. Her companion wheel is also working.
- She has a companion perk, "Way of the Kiwi" which grants:
+ 7 Sneak
+ 7 Survival
+ 30 health

- Melissa will never be hostile to the Courier even if one is Vilified with the Great Khans unless she or one of the other two Khans are attacked by the player. She will also not acknowledge the player's poor reputation with them unless it's before starting her quest, in which case she will reject the Courier's help.
