Gwyneth

Sister Gwyneth is the heretical member of the Church of the Children of Atom on the Island in 2287.
==Background==
Gwyneth was a very devout and dedicated child of Atom. She was well liked among her family, known for her reliability and her oddities, such as her ability to find clutches of mirelurk eggs on beaches others thought to be clear.The Sole Survivor: "Was there something between you and Sister Gwyneth?"Richter: " "(Richter's dialogue) She would spend hours with their former high confessor, Martin, discussing the finer points of their faith.The Sole Survivor: "Tell me about Sister Gwyneth."Brian Richter: " "(Richter's dialogue)
Upon seeing documents describing what an atom was, she could no longer believe that Atom was real. With Martin's zealotry lingering and losing control of his flock, she came to him to discuss her crisis of faith.Gwyneth's journal For the better part of two hours, they discussed their dogma, with Martin reminding her of all the gifts they believed Atom bestowed upon them, their radiation immunity, their family and their home on the Island. That eventually calmed her down, but as she left for bed, her questions lingered in his mind and raised doubts that Martin had possessed for some time. Martin would question how wise she was,Sister Gwyneth's visit although this would be blamed on DiMA.A Vengeful Creature
Sometime later, while Gwyneth was praying quietly, she suddenly lept up and began to shout that Atom is a lie. Although not a violent person, when the then Grand Zealot Tektus confronted her, Gwyneth struck him with such force that she knocked him to the ground. When she realized what she had done, she fled. Tektus wanted to immediately send someone after her, to make her an example, but High Confessor Martin insisted they wait for her return for Atom's forgiveness. However, this did not take place, as blasphemous messages appeared at their holy sites not long after.Brian Richter: ""The Sole Survivor: "What kind of job?"Brian Richter: ""The Sole Survivor: "I'm ready to serve, Grand Zealot."Brian Richter: " "The Sole Survivor: "Why have me do this? You have other Zealots who probably know the area better."Brian Richter: ""The Sole Survivor: "We can't try talking to her? Maybe she'll see reason."Brian Richter: ""Brian Richter: ""Brian Richter: " "The Sole Survivor: "I'll find her, Grand Zealot."Brian Richter: " "(Richter's dialogue)Theil: "Sister Gwyneth's heresy cannot be permitted to continue.""May Atom guide you to the heretic.""Hopefully you will succeed where I failed.""Sister Gwyneth was never violent in the past, but you should still be prepared for anything.""I only wish that I knew what drove Sister Gwyneth mad."(Theil's dialogue)The Sole Survivor: "The Grand Zealot sent me. Tell me what you can about Sister Gwyneth."Theil: " "(Theil's dialogue)The Sole Survivor: "What caused Gwyneth to turn her back on Atom?"Theil: " "(Theil's dialogue)The Sole Survivor: "I'll find Sister Gwyneth."Theil: " "(Theil's dialogue) Now that the sister is committing such fervored acts of heresy, Zealot Theil was tasked by Tektus to bring her Atom's justice: execution.The Sole Survivor: "Why not just ignore her? Is Gwyneth really that much of a threat to you?"Theil: ""(Theil's dialogue)The Sole Survivor: "I can tell Gwyneth was your friend. How do I know you didn't deliberately fail?"Theil: " "(Theil's dialogue) However, this is hampered by how clever Gwyneth is, and Theil has since been unable to track her whereabouts. Her failure to both find Gwyneth and Gwyneth's heresy eat away at her constantly, as Theil has been praying to Atom for her friend's return to the family.Theil: """"""""(Theil's dialogue) Should Sister Gwyneth return to the family, Theil will be very gratefulTheil: ""(Theil's dialogue) and Richter would be impressed that the Sole Survivor got through to her and grateful. As he to is extremely fond of her,The Sole Survivor: "Sister Gwyneth is coming back. She wants to make amends for her actions."Brian Richter: " "(Richter's dialogue) he would even go so far to convince Tektus to show mercy so long as she remained faithful.Gwyneth: """"""""""(Richter's dialogue)
Despite his fondness, the heresy needed to be dealt with and Richter would not bat an eye should she remain a heretic. Whatever the outcome, the Sole Survivor proves themselves worthy to enforce Atom's laws in Richter's eyes, so much so that he solemnly hands over a sacred religious weapon, "Atom's Judgement," to continue the fight against the enemies of Atom.Brian Richter: """"The Sole Survivor: "Sister Gwyneth won't be troubling you any longer."Brian Richter: " "The Sole Survivor: "Glory to Atom!"Brian Richter: " "(Richter's dialogue)The Sole Survivor: "Absolutely not. I'm not just going to execute a woman."Brian Richter: " "(Richter's dialogue)The Sole Survivor: "Could we try talking with her?"Brian Richter: ""(Richter's dialogue)Brian Richter: ""(Richter's dialogue)
===Heresy===
When she left the children to pursue her new heresy, it was not just that Atom was completely fictional, but also that the real truth is that "nothing" is god, that "nothing" is deathless, without fear and remorse, and that those who have died have become one with nothingness.Gwyneth: " "(Gwyneth's dialogue) Gwyneth even went as far as to believe that the Children of Atom was a false gospel by those like Martin and Tektus to know the truth about Atom, and that Atom is a tiny mote in the vastness of "Nothing," which is the true nature of existence.Gwyneth: ""The Sole Survivor: "The truth of Nothing? What does that mean?"Gwyneth: " "(Gwyneth's dialogue)The Sole Survivor: "You've betrayed Atom with your lies and heretical messages."Gwyneth: " "(Gwyneth's dialogue)The Sole Survivor: "The Children of Atom want you dead. You need to stop defiling their holy sites."Gwyneth: " "(Gwyneth's dialogue)
To spread her message to try and save her family, she began to "desecrate" the Children's holy sites with her message. She truly cares for her family and wants to save them, seeing her new mission to spread her truth of "Nothing." She wishes that she was not compelled to do so,The Sole Survivor: "You saw something you didn't understand and it scared you. Now you've turned your back on Atom and your family."Gwyneth: " "(Gwyneth's dialogue)The Sole Survivor: "Look, I know you think you're trying to save the Children of Atom, but you could be wrong. It's not too late to turn back and atone for your actions."Gwyneth: ""(Gwyneth's dialogue)The Sole Survivor: ""Gwyneth: " "(Gwyneth's dialogue) and that she could just go home to be with her family.The Sole Survivor: "You're not thinking clearly, and unless you stop, these delusions are going to get you killed. You can't go on like this, Gwyneth."Gwyneth: ""(Gwyneth's dialogue)The Sole Survivor: "You're out here all alone. Don't you miss your brothers and sisters at the Nucleus? I know they're like a family to you."Gwyneth: " "(Gwyneth's dialogue)Gwyneth: "Thank you for helping me to see reason.""I just need time to prepare myself before I return.""The Nucleus is my home. It's where I belong. I see that now."(Gwyneth's dialogue) 
The Sole Survivor, whether a child, crusader or most appropriately an inquisitor, can convince her that she is just blinded by fear and doubt, and that she should just come home to face punishment.The Sole Survivor: ""Gwyneth: " "(Gwyneth's dialogue)The Sole Survivor: "What if you misunderstood what you saw and overreacted? Do you really believe that everyone is wrong about Atom except you?"Gwyneth: ""(Gwyneth's dialogue) However, the Sole Survivor can also more easily convince her to flee the IslandThe Sole Survivor: ""Gwyneth: ""(Gwyneth's dialogue)The Sole Survivor: ""Gwyneth: " "(Gwyneth's dialogue) to spread her message to those whom will actually listen.Gwyneth: "I will spread the truth of Nothing to the whole world!""The Children of Atom are lost beyond hope. I can do nothing more for them.""I tried to show the Children of Atom the truth, but they would not see it. Now I must show that truth to others.""Soon... I will begin my journey soon.""You have shown me a new path. Soon the whole world will know the truth of Nothing!""I will spread the holy word to the masses! Nothing is real!"(Gwyneth's dialogue) 
Despite all that she could have learned about forgiveness in the face of heresy, she has none for Far Harbor, and if it is destroyed, she will take some mild pleasure in its destruction.Gwyneth: ""(Gwyneth's dialogue) Gwyneth: ""(Gwyneth's dialogue)
