Garza

 is a inhabitant of Rivet City in 2277.

Background
Born in 2247, Garza is a physically imposing man living in Rivet City. He works mostly in the Lab, doing the more physical elements of science such as heavy lifting. Due to a heart condition, if Garza goes too long without medication it is potentially fatal.

Quests

 * The Waters of Life: Garza is part of the group which relocates to Jefferson Memorial. During the escape, Garza will need medication to keep going. The player can either give five stimpaks to Garza, give him 3 buffouts, or leave him to his death. If Garza is given the medication, he will go on to join up with the Brotherhood of Steel.

Appearances
appears only in Fallout 3.

Bugs

 * Garza can sometimes be found in the Super Mutant stronghold between Rivet City and Jefferson Memorial. If he dies there, he won't appear as part of your group during The Waters of Life.
 * In the same super mutant camp, Garza may be there at the same time you are, and it is possible he will retrieve the super mutant's mini gun (or other weapon. It depends on what kind of super mutants there are and who he gets to first.) If this happens, he will continue to have this weapon throughout the game (unless he finds a better one).
 * If you choose to leave him in Taft Tunnel, he will still be there if you go back, despite his supposedly life-threatening heart attack. The only dialogue option available is the usual "I have to go now". There is no way to get him out.
 * When Garza is saved, and joins up with the Brotherhood of steel, once in a while, his corpse would be found outside the memorial with his head blown off.
