Cassandra Moore

"Unlike the good ambassador, I don't intend to blink."

Colonel Cassandra Moore is the commanding officer for the NCR stationed at Hoover Dam.

Background
A career soldier that joined the army at the age of 16, Cassandra is a veritable legend among NCR troopers. She took part in operations against the Vipers and the Jackals, as well as surviving four tours of duty against the Brotherhood of Steel in California, and is widely considered to be one of the most competent military officers in the Army. She is a noted conservative in military matters, favoring strength and determination over cunning and diplomacy. Chief Hanlon notes that she is "better at making graves than making friends".

While interacting with Moore, the Courier learns that she was once an NCR Ranger, but after being injured in combat, had to leave the front lines to assume command behind a desk, something that turned her mood a little bitter. She regrets having to leave the Rangers "because of the freedom to do whatever you want," in her own words.

Moore displays unfailing support for General Lee Oliver and President Kimball's push to seize the Mojave - a support which has seen her gain great influence - and is not above violent means to ensure NCR's dominance of the region; whether it be dealing militantly with the Great Khans and the Kings or completely destroying the Mojave chapter of the Brotherhood. She is rather critical of Ambassador Crocker and his more diplomatic approach to NCR's expansion into Vegas and will push for his removal if the Courier chooses to support his approach to the Kings and Freeside above hers.

Quests

 * For the Republic, Part 2: Colonel Moore tasks the player with cleaning up the problems in and around New Vegas.

appears in Fallout: New Vegas.

Bugs

 * During How Little We Know, there is a bug where, after completing it, the game will not allow you to talk to Colonel Moore. POSSIBLE CAUSE: This happens when you haven't spoken with Liza O'Malley at the beginning of the Omertas part of the For the Republic, Part 2 quest. You could use console command that allow you to lie about Omertas and continue the chain.
 * PS3 solution: Kill Cachino and lie to the NCR about their plans. You will still get NCR fame and no evil karma. This is the only way to fix the glitch and continue with the NCR.
