Linden's Outcast power armor is a unique piece of power armor in Fallout 3.
Background[]
The armor was once worn by Branchtender Linden, a former member of the Brotherhood Outcasts after their split from the D.C. chapter of the Brotherhood of Steel led by Owyn Lyons. After joining with the reclusive Treeminders to pay the debt he feels owed to them for saving his life, Linden forewent wearing the armor but still retained possession of it.
Characteristics[]
Linden's armor is a moderately resilient suit of power armor, with the added bonus of giving an increase of 5 in the Big Guns skill, an exception to the normal T-45d power armor modifiers.
Location[]
The armor is located in Oasis, given by Linden after completing the quest Oasis by using Laurel's liniment on Harold's heart. Afterward, one can talk to Linden to receive their reward.

Notes[]
- Despite visually being identical to normal Outcast power armor, the game treats it as a standard faction-less variant of T-45d. As such, Protector Casdin will not confiscate the unique armor if the player character is wearing it while talking to him at Fort Independence.
- Likewise, the Outcasts that appear in the Operation: Anchorage add-on do not recognize Linden's armor as their own, and will refer to the player character as a "local" when they wear it.
- Linden's armor, the Bombshell armor, and Lag-Bolt's combat armor are the only three armors in the game that enhance the Big Guns skill.
- Power armor can only be worn if the player character has gained the Power Armor Training perk, either by talking to Paladin Gunny in the Citadel, by starting Take it Back!, or by completing the Anchorage Reclamation simulation in the Operation: Anchorage add-on.
