Damn, Needles is outright the creepiest thing in this game...(warning: nsfw content below, feel free to test this for yourself).

I was playing as the Mechanic and I had just recruited Levi (still day 1 if that matters, at night). After hearing a laughter "devoid of life" echoing through the streets, this white hooded creep starts stalking me from the gate's direction. I'm forced to fight him as he's too fast to be avoided, and he starts the battle by waltzing and ACTUALLY SINGING.

Talking to him only makes you waste a turn, as he grins back at you and nothing else happens. His main attacks are Needle Whip (which causes ~25 damage + bleeding and infection) with his right arm, Mystery Injection (~1 damage + bleeding + infection and paralysis/tremors). Each arm has about 500-700 hit points (Abella had her custom weapon, Sandman's Kiss and Levi had his MK I rifle with 5 bullets) and, should you manage to cut his right arm off, he'll start laughing like a madman, whip out a GODDAMN GUN with his left hand and shoot you down!

But, it doesn't end here.

Unfortunately I lose the fight, Levi dies but I don't get a game over.

My character wakes up in a basement(?) after having been injected with something and reawakening from the paralyzing effect. Levi's corpse os right next to her, and she "finds a chain around her ankle", keeping her in place. I try moving around (I discover I can move around and even check poor Ex-Soldier's corpse as normal). Now, here comes a nsfw part: while moving around, a giant red silhouette follows and enters my character's body, giving a unique animation and causing her "to have an org**m before passing out".

After this animation is over, I open the inventory and nothing seems to be missing. There are no status effects (I was inflicted with Bleeding but after this cutscene was over I was ok, if very low on hit points).

Looking around, the basement is actually Bunker n.5, that's the bunker you can only access as the Mechanic thru short circuit on the electric door, all the way in the Moonscorched village part of Prehevil! I have no idea how you're supposed to get out if you didn't open the door to the bunker beforr ending up there...

I'll report more if I find anything else, I made a separate save file after reaching the train again but so far everything seems unchanged.

Apologies for text wall, mods are free to move these info to Needles' page when it'll be created. And no, I couldn't take screenshots unfortunately.

TL;DR: Stay away from Needles. Run away and keep running away if he catches up to you and you enter in combat with him.
