Blade

Blade is the last of four unique marked men encountered in the Divide in the Fallout: New Vegas add-on Lonesome Road.

Background
Blade is a marked man scout residing close to the entrance to Ulysses' Temple in the Divide. His health and combat skills are higher than those of a normal marked man, and are on par with those of an non-player character companion. True to his name, he is a sword fighter whose primary weapon is the Blade of the West. Blade moves 15% faster than a normal non-player character and deals 25 extra points of melee damage per hit. He uses a Stealth Boy, allowing him to get into close melee range without being spotted. Blade wears marked patrol armor and carries NCR currency, suggesting he was once an NCR ranger, but fights using Legion-style weaponry and tactics, suggesting that he has adopted Legion methods during his time as a marked man.

Appearances
Blade appears only in Fallout: New Vegas add-on Lonesome Road.

Bugs
Blade has a habit of disappearing after being killed, making it impossible to obtain his unique helmet at later points in the DLC.
