I've always solved the Tenpenny quest by taking out the ghouls, who are quite upfront about their intentions. This time, I decided to help them move into the tower just to see how it plays out, though I know from these forums and other sources what happens.

But I also use Companion Share and Recruit, which allows you to turn non-companion NPCs into a companion. The question is, if I were to recruit Herbert Daring Dashwood so that he would be with me when the ghouls do their thing, would that save him and allow him to move back into the tower after I fired him? Or is he scripted to die when everyone else does? Has anyone ever done this?
