📋 About This Mod
Companion Reilly ===========================
Ever wanted to travel the wastes with your new merc friend? Well now you can. Simply complete the Reilly Rangers quest then you have two ways to make Reilly your companion.
How to Recruit Her ============================== You can either hire her via a dialog after the quest where you can offer to collect mapping data, their is a new option.
The other way is if you missed the first oppertunity simply return to Reilly with mapping data, but DO NOT use the original option to give her the data or you will have to collect more.
You can also open up the console ~ and enter: set FollowersHireReilly. ReillyCanBeHired to 1
Features =============================== V1: Reilly can wait in a position and trade gear with the player. Reilly is mostly voice/lipped except for her initial dialog that makes her hireable. Reilly cannot be made essential as of yet unless you use another mod to do so.
Known Bugs =============================== None, but feel free to send me a comment if you find one.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 372 endorsements and nearly 90k downloads—clearly a well-loved mod.
- Gives you a new companion without breaking the game's lore—she's already a character you meet.
- Simple concept: complete a quest, get a companion. No complex requirements.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2014—might have compatibility issues with modern mod setups or the GOG/Steam versions.
- No detailed instructions on the two methods, so you might have to figure them out in-game.
- Only adds one companion—if you're looking for a whole squad, this isn't it.
For Fallout 3 players who want a lore-friendly companion without installing huge overhauls. If you enjoyed Reilly's character and want her by your side, this is a must-have. Skip if you're on a modded playthrough with heavy companion overhauls that might conflict.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you complete the Reilly Rangers quest first—the mod only activates after that.
- If you're using a mod manager, install it manually by dropping the files into your Data folder to avoid load order issues.
- Check your load order to ensure no other companion mods override Reilly's dialogue.
