A Few Kindred Spirits

is a quest in The Outer Worlds.
==Synopsis==
Grace Romero, one of the deserters camped at the botanical labs, asks the Stranger to help look for a missing deserter named Zoe Chandler. Zoe can be found in the abandoned industrial zone in the northeast part of Emerald Vale.
==Walkthrough==
The quest is started by speaking to Grace Romero at the entrance to the botanical labs. She is concerned about members of her camp "wandering out" of it. In particular, a deserter named Zoe Chandler went missing a couple of nights ago and Grace is worried that marauders may have gotten her. She does not know where Zoe may have gone but suggests that the Stranger check her room or speak to Stefan Garcia, with whom Zoe used to be close.
===Search for clues===
Speaking with Stefan Garcia will not give any clues to Zoe's whereabouts. However, Stefan will reveal that he and Zoe used to watch the serial, The Masked Marketeer, together and that he was planning to surprise her with a genuine copy of the latest episode before she went missing. He will also allude to her habit of writing things down on pieces of paper ("journaling"), which he considers a bit odd.
Zoe's house is located in the southeast of the botanical labs. Pages from her journal can be found inside and Page 22 will reveal that Zoe left the camp to join the marauders and become a bandit queen.
===Find Zoe===
Zoe is hiding out with the marauders based in the abandoned industrial zone in the northeastern part of Emerald Vale. This is the band of marauders which also includes Guillaume Antrim on whom there is an active bounty. These marauders will be hostile on sight. When they are defeated, Zoe will appear in the street in the center of the area.
===Convince Zoe to return / Kill Zoe===
Zoe is unharmed and very impressed with how the Stranger killed all the marauders "like some sort of heroic accountant running down a list". She doesn't want to return to the camp, believing that she belongs with the marauders. She can be convinced with a Persuade 15 or Intimidate 65 check.
Alternatively, the Stranger can return to the botanical labs and ask Stefan to lend them his copy of The Masked Marketeer to help with tempting Zoe back to camp. Stefan is reluctant to part with the item and must be convinced with a Lie 10 or Persuade 10 check. Once his copy of the Masked Marketeer is secured, it can be used to bribe Zoe to return to camp. She is unable to resist her favorite serial and will agree to return in exchange for the episode.
Alternatively, Zoe can be killed for the 8 Adrena-Time that she is carrying. Zoe's ring can be looted from her corpse as proof of what "happened" to her.
===Completion===
After either convincing Zoe to return to camp or killing her and looting the ring from her corpse, return to the botanical labs and speak to Grace to complete the quest.
