Jenifer "Jenn" Hail is a young resident of Vault 18 and possible companion in Fallout: New California.
Biography
Jenn is the oldest daughter of legendary Wasteland Scout Yetti Hail, a status that has led the young woman to constantly feel she lives in her father's shadow.
Jenn is one of the few vault children who was actually born in Vault 18, a dwindling breed as the vault's residents face the issues of old age and potential inbreeding. Due to this she is often seen as a spoiled brat and the vault's local "slut" by her peers and exposed to mockery and abuse by the vault's tribal inhabitants. This has resulted in Jenn becoming an introverted, shy young woman.
