What is Schotchmo? Why is Scotchmo?

He’s a pistol/shotgun user when the game already gave you one earlier.

He picks locks, at a point in the game when you’ve probably trained lockpicking on one of your other characters.

He sneaks, but he can’t stealthily disarm traps, he can’t disable generators, he can’t hack machines to use them against enemies . . . He can sneak attack, but his range is so short he’s likely to get spotted first.

He has just enough strength and melee weapons to detract from his other stats, but not enough to actually hurt anything.

Worst of all, he has an incredibly annoying 20% damage penalty that converts into a damage buff when he’s drunk. As soon as he sobers up, you have to deal with the penalty and the hangover. And sometimes he just decides on his own to drink from your limited supply of alcohol, giving you not much time to use the buff, but plenty of time for the hangover to kick in.

He seems like he’s looking for a place to die. I’m tempted to let him.
