Vance (Fallout 3)

Vance is the mysterious leader and guide of the Family. He adopts outcasts with cannibalistic urges from all over the Wasteland into the Family. At the start of Fallout 3, he is trying to train his charges to drink blood as if they were vampires, as opposed to eating human flesh. His followers have described him as having a "sixth sense" about people who are good candidates for the Family. Vance is encountered during the Blood Ties quest.

At the conclusion of Blood Ties, Vance will teach you the Hematophage perk.


 * He wields a Shishkebab, for which he wears an oven mitt (if the player wields a Shishkebab, they too will be wearing a mitt).
 * Vance is also wearing the unique item, Vance's Longcoat Outfit, but you will have to kill him in order to take it.


 * Vance also owns Vampire's Edge although it's not on his person. It's in a locked (hard)sword cabinet in his room.  Vance has the key to the cabinet on his person, so you can either pickpocket the key to open the cabinet or just pick the lock.  Either will result in negative karma.
