1 10mm pistol
1 club (something similar in effectiveness to a bat)
1 waterskin
3 small satchels sewn into his robes
Leather armor








This is a secret but he has a stick of dynamite and match hidden in his ass (sorta a character moment typa thing)

Personality and interests

Absalom is a cunning individual perfectly content to stab his savior in the back in the name of furthering the raid gods will, although he is undying in his faith and will die for those he believes to be chosen, he hides his insanity behind a welcoming smile and a perceived frailty.

Skills

Absalom has many strengths and weaknesses
Chief among them is his complete tech illiteracy, he can hardly work a terminal let alone a robot.
But compensating for that is his general survival abilities and steady enough shot, and most striking of all his unkempt charisma capable of lying through his teeth to the most insightful individual and selling sand to Mr new Vegas himself couple all of this with his undying will to please the god of the raid and he is a cult of personality.

Fallout way of looking at it
High charisma and luck with average for the rest of his special excluding a below average intelligence
