Saving (or Savaging) Sergeant Teddy



Saving (or Savaging) Sergeant Teddy is an unmarked quest in Fallout: New Vegas.

Detailed walkthrough

 * 1) Talk to Melody, a child slave at The Fort. With 50 Speech, you can learn that her teddy bear, Sergeant Teddy, was taken from her.
 * 2) Find Antony and agree to fight a few of his dogs in the Legion arena in exchange for the bear. This can be avoided if you have good reputation with the Legion or the Animal Friend perk. You may also pickpocket the bear from Antony or kill him.
 * 3) Once you have Sergeant Teddy, return to Melody.
 * 4) Give her the teddy bear, resulting in good Karma.
 * 5) Tear the teddy bear in half in front of her, resulting in bad Karma and Legion fame.

Bugs

 * If you make a fight at the fort, occasionally Melody will flee to the fort's entrance. Along with all other Characters, not including the Courier, she can use an invisible door and end up on the other side of the gate. The other side of the gate is in the same cell as the forts interior and the blip will appear on the compass. While the npc is there you can see them by looking through two holes in the walls on either side of the gate.
 * To fix this jump on the boxes next to Antony and Lupa (if still alive), then on two wall parts on the right, and try to jump over the wall. After that go to drawbridge gate, jump on the wall parts to pass through the rock. Use 3rd person camera to use drawbridge gate, so you'll enter Caesar's part of the Fort again (you are there already). Now Melody should be in the brahmin pen.
