John (Fallout 3)

John is an inhabitant of the Capital Wasteland in 2277.

Interactions overview
* Because John is intended to die, enslaving him can prove difficult.

Quests

 * Random Encounter: More Than Just Scrap: John is encountered with three vicious dogs nearby and gets killed by them. Sometimes he is encountered already dead. He holds John's Key and the Wastelander Note. The key unlocks an ammo box with three skill books at the Scrapyard.

Appearances
John only appears in Fallout 3.

Bugs

 * John can appear in the wasteland more than once, carrying a new note and a new copy of the key each time.
 * John has no fixed appearance.
 * It is possible to save John from the dogs, especially if you fast travel and appear right at their location, but after saving him he won't engage in dialogue, he'll only tell you to "Move on", and "He's not looking for trouble", etc. If this happens, he will appear as "wastelander", and he will still have the key and the note in his inventory.
