Carlyle St. Clair III

Carlyle St. Clair III is a hermit living in the Mojave Wasteland in 2281.

Background
Carlyle St. Clair III is a wastelander who was the original candidate for the dish the White Glove Society would dine on for Mortimer's banquet. Before he could get captured by the White Gloves, Carlyle escaped and headed to a shack which became his house. He is very suspicious about outsiders coming to his doorstep and has never left his house since he escaped from the Ultra-Luxe.

Quests

 * Beyond the Beef: The player needs to find him in order to use him as an acceptable replacement for Ted Gunderson, if you chose to take the path of saving Ted Gunderson.
 * With the Confirmed Bachelor/Black Widow perk, he can be lured into the dumpster by proposing that you will have sex with him there.
 * If you have 7 Strength you can apply a sleeper hold.
 * If you have 45 Medicine skill you can tell him to breathe deeply three times then blow on his thumb, which causes him to pass out.
 * If you have 45 Guns skill you can pistol whip him.
 * If you have 45 Unarmed skill you can knock him out by striking a nerve in his neck.

Appearances
Carlyle St. Clair III appears only in Fallout: New Vegas.

Behind The Scenes
Carlyle St. Clair III says "is that some kind of ancient Chinese secret or something?" This may be interpreted as a reference to a 1970s advertisement for the cleaning product Calgon where it is stated that Calgon is a "ancient Chinese secret".

Bugs

 * Once you get to the shack, he usually is not there. One solution has worked on PC, but you still may not have access to Carlyle's dialogue tree. Enter the following into the console:, ,.
 * Try knocking out Carlyle, drag his body to the dumpster, and see if the dumpster will let you put his body in. If this doesn't work, enter into the console just after the lines above and then go try knocking him out again after starting the quest over again. This means that you will have to go back to Mortimer and start the events over, and the characters that may have died previously will still be dead.
 * Choosing to pistol whip Carlyle St. Clair can sometimes kill him, causing you to immediately fail Beyond the Beef.
