Jacklyn

 is a woman living in the Mojave Wasteland in 2281. She can be found in a gunfight with Tomas between Nipton and the Nipton Road Pit Stop.

Location
If she wins the gunfight against Tomas, she can be found running towards you on the road to the Nipton Road Pit Stop.

Interactions with the player character
If talked to after the gunfight, if she survives, she tells you that Tomas was insane and wanted some sort of stars. After you explain that he was hunting for Sunset Sarsaparilla star bottle caps, and end the dialogue, she will say she needs time to compose herself and remain friendly. Additionally, if you ask her what she looted from the corpse and then pass an Intelligence check (7), you can say "Nothing like those six you've got there" and trick her - the necklace being discussed has seven caps, not six. At this, she will declare that she "can't leave any witnesses behind" and attack you. All other speech options besides that one and "Sure have. And I'm thinking of adding yours to my collection" will not cause her to attack you. However, when questioned by her about the stars, if you answer that you have some or tell her what Tomas meant, she will remain friendly for a brief time after exiting dialogue before turning hostile and attacking you. You can kill (or pickpocket) her whenever you want, friendly or not, for the bottle caps and no karma loss. In fact, you can kill her as soon as she wins the fight, even snipe her before she makes it to you. She will have all 9 Sunset Sarsaparilla star bottle caps in her inventory, which you can loot off her body. If you search Tomas's corpse, you can find his diary, which you can confront her with, also resulting in her becoming hostile.

If Tomas survives instead, he will run over and explain that they were traveling together, but that she attacked him suddenly when he revealed his handmade necklace of 7 Sunset Sarsaparilla star bottle caps. A speech check (50) can be used to convince him that those kinds of caps are being sought after by dangerous people, and to instead give them to you for safekeeping. Jacklyn's body nearby has another 2 star caps.

More times than not, Tomas will win the fight against Jacklyn. Either way it's best to get to them as quickly as possible to avoid having to track down the corpse of either one.
