Blake (Fallout: New Vegas)

Blake is a merchant at the Crimson Caravan Company in the Mojave Wasteland in 2281.

Background
Blake comes from a town in the NCR called Oak Creek. Oak Creek was once a farming town, but the town was taken over by ranchers during Blake's stay. Blake says that he didn't want to herd brahmin for the rest of his life, so he signed on with the Crimson Caravan.

Quests

 * Bitter Springs Infirmary Blues: You will need to buy Tiny, Tiny Babies: All You Need to Know About Pediatric Medicine as well as Stress and the Modern Refugee: A Primer from Blake and give them to Markland.
 * Dealing with Contreras: Blake is in possession of some Medical supplies that need to be delivered for Contreras.
 * Poor Meat Never Makes Good Soup:Blake is one of the possible meat supply contractors for Camp McCarran suggested by Farber's list. A speech check is required to talk him into the contract.

Appearances
Blake appears in Fallout: New Vegas.

Bugs

 * Blake normally stands in front of his "store," however he has been known to disappear (or not appear at all). If a careful search of all 3 outbuildings produces no Blake, try visiting the Caravaneer's building (first on the right as the player enters the Crimson Caravan map from fast travel). There may be a crowd of Caravaners standing close together (stuck). The player's entrance should cause them to start moving on their pre-programmed paths again. After the crowd disperses, Blake should be back in his normal position (and the town should appear much more lively).
 * Can occasionally cause your game to freeze when entering shop menu with him.
 * Blake has a stimpak that can be bought from him repeatedly-after completing transaction another stimpak will appear for sale. Assuming you have the caps, an infinite amount of stimpaks can be purchased from him.
 * Buying Metal Armor, Reinforced, Combat Armor, or Recon Armor will instead give you a higher condition version than you bought, and allow you to resell it back to him for profit. You can repeat this until you drain him of all his caps.  Only works if you buy the cheapest version; buying the highest conditioned armor will not raise the value or condition. When he runs out of caps, you can purchase other items in his inventory to replenish his caps. As long as you leave all the armor of the type you are doing this trick with, you can rob him of his caps and inventory.
 * High chance of freezing when trying to purchase items. (Seems to be caused by the latest patch)
 * It is possible Great Khans gang members may spawn with the player when fast traveling to Crimson Caravan Company during Aba Daba Honeymoon. They will begin fighting and possibly killing NPCs like Blake inside the camp (confirmed 360).
 * His inventory occasionally does not change. It appears to change only when you wait for 3 days for it to restock rather than letting it pass elsewhere.
