Ranger Dobson

Ranger Dobson is an NCR Ranger scouting out in Hidden Valley $$

Background
A Redding native, Dobson has seen plenty of action against slavers in his Ranger career. As of 2281, he is stationed at Camp McCarran, but has recently gone off on his own to assess and scout out the NCR Correctional Facility that was lost to the Powder Gangers. He set up shop in a Hidden Valley Bunker, intending to use it as a safehouse. His main target has been the terrorist Samuel Cooke and his gang of roamers which he considers to be the most dangerous out of any other Powder Gangers. Though he is after Cooke's gang, he considers all Powder Gangers the lowest of the low for preying on caravans and civilians, and will shoot any Powder Ganger on sight that he finds.

His stay at the bunker has been fairly problematic, as Dobson has had trouble bringing his radio to broadcast properly. However, the area's "natural phenomena" sandstorms and the bunker's remote location still make it worth the hassle, as it keeps him relatively safe from any predators or troublemakers topside... At least that is what Dobson thinks.

Dobson is a confident individual and takes pride in his work protecting the innocent of the Mojave Wasteland, but like any good Ranger; he is not headstrong and knows his limits. Other than the love of his job, Dobson loves to josh around with anyone he can, even if they are a complete stranger. He is even been known to do so over the radio to HQ at McCarran, which has made the radio operators take his reports less seriously. Although he shows his kindly side more, Dobson will become deadly serious when he suspects he is in danger or being played. However, if the perpetrator admits to their wrongdoing, Dobson is willing to forgive them at the moment unless they persist.

Appearances
Dobson appears only $$

Bugs

 * Dobson may appear in the southern Hidden Valley Bunker, although he will be invisible. The "talk" button will still appear but it will do nothing. Shooting near him in this state will make him say things like, "Watch where you're shooting."
 * Sometimes, if Dobson survives the encounter with the Brotherhood, the player character may still not gain any reputation from the NCR.
 * He sometimes may be found just outside of Hidden Valley, although everything else is the same except his position. You can still talk to him about leaving the bunker.
