Legate Lanius is a major character from Fallout: New Vegas
Bio[edit | edit source]
The second-in-command to the Legion's supreme leader Caesar, Lanius is a violent man even by the standards of his bloodthirsty comrades. This is not to say he is stupid - the Legate simply and faithfully believes that war is the anvil upon which all civilization must be hardened. As such, he actually is disappointed that the enemy New California Republic sent out the wildly incompetent General Lee Oliver rather than the experienced NRC Ranger Chief Hanlon to prevent him from taking over the Hoover Dam; a vital source of electric power in the post-apocalyptic Mojave desert.
In combat, Lanius proves his reputation as a 'monster' is well-deserved. He move significantly faster than the player, wields the fearsome Blade of the East that can neatly knock the Courier right off his feet, and has enough armor to survive a few dozen bullets being dumped into him. Characters with very high speech or barter skills can actually talk him out of the battle, but those who are not skilled in the way of words better be really damn skilled in the ways of using gun.
In 8chanmania[edit | edit source]
Legate Lanius solely fought in 8chanmania VII, and beyond him not winning the belt, missing records mean it is unknown how he fared there.
