Scavenger (Fallout 3)



Scavengers are traders in the Capital Wasteland. Some Scavengers will be accompanied by non-hostile guard dogs or even non-hostile Yao Guai. If asked about their merchandise (only if Megaton was destroyed), they will say people in Megaton no longer need things.

Scavengers will sometimes pick a random target to scavenge. It may be a container, or simply a random (possibly pre-programmed?) spot on the ground. Once they have secured an object, they guard it for some time. If you approach them too rapidly and intrude on their actions, they may become hostile. You will receive a warning from them unless you are moving very quickly. Even while they are doing this, you should still be able to easily approach them from another direction to initiate dialogue.
