Freeside

Freeside is the main slum of New Vegas in 2281. Controlled by the Kings and the Van Graffs, the streets are dangerous and lack the luster of Vegas proper.

Layout
It is full of destroyed buildings, such as shops, casinos, and others. It is also the base of the Kings gang. Freeside is designed to feel cramped and maze-like. The Freeside gate, the entrance, is guarded by King's people, and the King's School of Impersonation, Atomic Wrangler Casino, Cerulean Robotics, and the Silver Rush are all located here.

Several rough bodyguards stand near the gate, offering their "services" on the mean streets for a paltry sum of caps.

At Mick and Ralph's, Ralph sells a fake passport to the strip if the king gives permission or if you have 50 Speech. The price is 500 caps, but you can Barter for half that.

If you complete all the quests for The King he asks if you want a favor, if you choose the passport option go to Mick and Ralph's speak to Ralph and he will give you the passport for free.

Children can be seen chasing a giant rat through out Freeside. By killing the rat the kids will feast from it's dead body.

Appearances
appears in Fallout: New Vegas.

Bugs

 * In Freeside you will notice a boy and a girl chasing a giant rat, talk to them as they run and the girl has a regular voice actor as well as the boy.After killing the rat the girl or the boy (Whichever is closest will eat the rat) when you talk to them now they share a voice actor. So the girl now sounds like a boy.


 * Sometimes after you kill the giant rat, the first boy chasing the rat will fall to his knees to take a bite but will continue to move forward at running speed despite being in a crouched position and going through the rat-eating animation.
