While fighting some Enclave soldiers near Olney, Charon blasted one with his gun. This soldier proceeded to fly hundreds of feet into the air and land some distance away. Having found this violation of the laws of physics unacceptable, Charon proceeded to chase the corpse to where it landed and shot it repeatedly, ignoring me screaming for help while I was swamped by two dickpukes with plasma rifles.
After the dust settled and narrowly escaping death, I found Charon still wasn’t following me, so I followed the echoing sounds of shotgun blasts to find him going to town on this body. All of the limbs and the head were just vaporized (remember, this poor soul was equipped in Enclave issued power armor) and Charon was still shooting.
It had been a while since I had last saved and was feeling adventurous so I picked up the body and dragged it along as bait. Charon followed like a good boy, shooting the dangling body the whole way to Olney. He proceeded to get clapped by a Deathclaw five minutes later and I had to reload anyway.
TLDR: I’m not surprised Charon as an Intelligence of 3
