Jericho (Fallout 3)

Jericho is a former raider and possible companion living in Megaton

Background
Jericho was originally a wasteland raider who "lied, stole, and murdered with the best of them". He left his past behind him and settled down in Megaton after growing tired of the "killing, stealing and violence". Due to his past, he is distrustful of "every jackass nobody that wanders in from the Wasteland". He was a "real bastard back then" and states that there's "nothing but bullshit out there". He says that he does "miss it sometimes", feeling that it was a "life of freedom".

Jericho has used rifles for "25 goddamn years" and defends Megaton from raider attacks, stating that he is "the best shot in town with a rifle". He does work for Colin Moriarty, though expresses that he's a "ratfuck bastard". Jericho is interested in dating Nova, but has been turned down by her due to Moriarty wanting to keep things professional. He refrains from sharing his past, though town residents such as Jenny Stahl have discovered this.

Effects of player's actions

 * If Megaton is blown up during the quest The Power of the Atom while Jericho is in the player's party, he will walk to the Megaton ruins and stay in front of the crater, if dismissed. He comments on the town's destruction.

Other interactions

 * Jericho can be recruited as a companion with evil Karma. When asked to join the player character's party, he requests 1000 caps for "supplies" before he will join. He will remain with the player even if their Karma level improves. If dismissed, he can be rehired free of charge.
 * If given 20 caps, Jericho shares that Moriarty locks Gob and Nova's earnings inside a locker with a key around his neck. While the key was cut from the game, the locker itself can be lockpicked.

Appearances
Jericho appears in Fallout 3 and in Fallout Shelter.
