Freeside thugs

 are living in the Mojave Wasteland in 2281.

Background
Freeside thugs appear in the community of Freeside. They are almost always armed with weapons like a machete or a nailboard. They can be a risk to a low level character for simply walking into an alley can mean death. The thugs typically wear clothes that provide little or no damage threshold. Freeside thugs usually attack the player by one or sometimes in pairs. There is also a random event a Freeside thug usher you into a alley. He then points at a dead body. You can ask him "Who's that?" in which he replies "the last dumb guy to come into this alley!" At this point four additional Freeside thugs will attack.
