Fellow Traveler

The Fellow Traveler (Попутчик) is a character exclusively in Pathologic 2. He is first met by the Haruspex on his train into town. He is considered a deceitful individual, but attempts an approachable, or at least amicable, attitude. He runs the Dead Item Shop at night.

Description
The Fellow Traveler shares his appearance with regular drunkards and guardsmen around town. He runs a business called the Dead Item Shop, which can be located around town from 12:00 AM to 8:00 AM every day and will sell the player various medicines, foodstuffs, and supplies in exchange for items of interest, including organs and scrap items. These locations will be revealed to the player after they view the pantomimes at the Theatre, though it is not necessary to see the performances to visit the shop - one only needs to know where to find it.

He is first met on the train into town alongside the Haruspex, though it is unclear if he is truly a fellow passenger or simply an illusion. He asks to play dice with Artemy, though it is up to him if he decides to accept or not. If they play, he reveals he is uncertain if his arrival in town will be a good one, as he expects many people in town to be hesitant or even upset with his arrival. The conductor of the train will later speak with Artemy and explain that he was the only one present on the train trip in the cars.
