Malcolm Holmes

Malcolm Holmes is a retired trader living in the Mojave Wasteland in 2281.

Background
Malcolm Holmes was a collector of star bottle caps to get the treasure that's hidden in the Sunset Sarsaparilla Headquarters building. He claims to have retired from collecting the caps, but if you pickpocket him (or kill him), you can find as many as 6 star bottle caps in his inventory.

Quests

 * The Legend of the Star: Sometime after the player has picked up their first star bottle cap, they will encounter a man who claims he has been following them. Holmes is a retired trader who noticed you had the same interest in the bottle caps that he collected long ago. He also mentions that if enough caps are collected, the treasure can be claimed from someone named Festus.

Other interactions

 * Malcolm Holmes also mentions that there are people willing to kill for the blue star caps, including someone called Allen Marks.

Appearances
Malcolm Holmes appears only in Fallout: New Vegas.

Bugs
Malcolm's chest will sometime be invisible when he initially approaches you. Simply loading from the last save fixes this.
