Mysterious Stranger (Fallout: New Vegas)

Mysterious Stranger is a perk .
==Effects==
Taking this perk grants a 10% chance that the Mysterious Stranger will appear when using V.A.T.S. to attack enemies.
When he appears, he will attack a single enemy with his unique .44 Magnum, firing the full 6-shot clip before vanishing.
==Notes==
* The Mysterious Stranger will sometimes seek out other hostiles while in V.A.T.S., after he has killed the targeted one.
* His appearances have a counter on the Pip-Boy 3000 under the "Stats tab - General."
* The Miss Fortune perk functions in the same way as this perk, but with different effects in combat.
* Both the Mysterious Stranger and Miss Fortune perks can be chosen by the player character, but the characters will not appear together in the same V.A.T.S. sequence and taking both perks will not increase the chances of either one appearing.
* When interrogating Silus at Camp McCarran, if he is being attacked by the Courier using V.A.T.S., Silus will be killed by the Mysterious Stranger should he appear. In this event, Carrie Boyd will not respond in any way to Silus' death.
* It is possible to attack and even cripple the Mysterious Stranger by accident in V.A.T.S., but this seems to have no effect whatsoever.
* The Mysterious Stranger can be incapacitated by nearby explosions, sending him flailing about.
* If the Mysterious Stranger/Miss Fortune appears in a gas-filled area, their gunfire will ignite the gas and inflict damage to everyone in the vicinity.
* The Friendly Help challenge can be completed by the Mysterious Stranger or Miss Fortune making 15 appearances in combat, which earns a perk that increases the probability for them to appear.
* There is a chance for the Mysterious Stranger to miss all 6 shots from his .44 Magnum and leave the target completely unharmed.
* He may be seen reloading his weapon if he runs out of ammo. However, the Mysterious Stranger is never given the chance to finish.

==Behind the scenes==
* The Mysterious Stranger wields a revolver and wears a fedora and overcoat, like a protagonist of 1950s film noir.
* There were several unfinished drafts of a book by Mark Twain titled "The Mysterious Stranger," in which the title character claims to be Satan's nephew. The drafts also contain various references to the number 44. 
* His name could also be a reference to “The Stranger” by Albert Camus, where an Algerian shoots an Arab with a revolver for no reason.
