Aldridge

Aldridge is a dying raider in Appalachia in 2103.

Background
Coming to Appalachia with Meg Groberg's raiders, Aldridge immediately went to work scouting potential raid locations in the area. He investigated the Sons of Dane compound and Camp Venture, being one of the few scouts to enter the Mire and return. Aldridge also discovered a toxic waste dump full of scorched, which Meg began looking into as part of her plan to wipe them out.

Shortly before the Vault Dweller approached the Crater with a vaccine to the Scorched Plague, Aldridge and a team of raiders were sent by Meg to a toxic waste disposal site near the Philippi Battlefield Cemetery, and fought a group of Scorched there including a scorchbeast. Despite killing the scorchbeast, the team was overwhelmed by the other Scorched creatures, and Aldridge was forced to retreat into a trailer.

Quests

 * Strange Bedfellows: Aldridge is found wounded inside the trailer at the toxic waste disposal, also infected by the Scorched Plague. Telling him about the plague and its effects, he can either be killed while he is still human, convinced that his condition is terminal and to go out on his own terms, or allowed to succumb to the plague.

Appearances
Aldridge appears only in Fallout 76, introduced in the Wastelanders update.
