Notes[]
- Chauncey is the only White Glove Society underling seen without a mask. When asked, he will tell the Courier that he must have forgotten to put it on.[1]
- Once the meeting with Chauncey has started, it is impossible to save him, as his death is scripted. As soon as the meeting ends, the steam room door opens. Quickly closing it causes the initial attack from the assassin to fail, but after a few seconds, the assassin will simply shoot him through the door. The Courier cannot stop the assassination, even by standing directly in front of Chauncey when the round is fired. Even attacking and killing the assassin before this second attempt will simply result in Chauncey dropping dead.
- It is possible to complete Beyond the Beef with Chauncey alive if the Courier does not go to the investigator's room and does not initiate the meeting with Chauncey and instead heads to the kitchen immediately to stop the feast and free Ted Gunderson.
Notable quotes[]
- "Yes. The White Glove Society strictly forbids eating humans. But we weren't always the White Glove Society."
- "Those are all members of the White Glove Society. Our founder, Marjorie, gave us all a dress code. There's only one rule to it. In her words, we must dress in such a way that no one can be said to have dressed better than us."
- "I don't know exactly. I wasn't in on it. I think some of them have stopped trusting me. But you can bet they're keeping him near the Gourmand. Our chef, Philippe, has an obsession with fresh ingredients."
Appearances[]
Chauncey appears only in Fallout: New Vegas.
Bugs[]
- Targeting Chauncey during the quest Beyond the Beef can cause a crash on PC. And he can die in the pool of the hotel.[verified]
- Sometimes, just talking to Chauncey in the steam room during the quest Beyond the Beef can cause a crash on PC, it might happen because you have companions following you in the same room or because you looked or talked to him before 4 p.m.[verified]
