Oliver Swanick

Oliver Swanick is a former powder ganger who won "the only lottery that matters." He is found during the player's first arrival to Nipton in 2281.

Background
A former powder ganger, Oliver Swanick was captured in the Legion's "cleansing" of the town of Nipton. As the winner of Nipton's lottery, he was the only man allowed to leave the town alive and unharmed (in the pre-release version of the game the town mayor was to also survive, having also won the "lottery"). When first encountered he is excessively jubilant over this fact. He will run up to you and say he "won it" over and over again.

Other interactions

 * When first entering Nipton, Swanick will run toward the player and initiate conversation.
