The Lonesome Drifter

 is a solitary troubadour travelling in the Mojave Wasteland in 2281. He can be found playing his Acoustic Guitar by a campfire next to a billboard on I-15. He carries a unique Mysterious Magnum. If questioned, the Lonesome Drifter talks about his life, his desertion by his father, and his music. During the mission Talent Pool, the Courier has the option of recruiting Billy to perform his act for the patrons of Tommy Torini's Aces Theater, located within The Tops casino.

Background
Born in Montana, The Lonesome Drifter was abandoned at a young age by his father, and was raised by his mother. After she died, he decided to find his father, although his reasons for doing so were unclear even to himself: they vary from asking him why he left to punching him in the face. His meager belongings include the guitar and the gun his father had left behind for him. The Drifter has traveled the western Wasteland extensively, but has felt unsatisfied as of late, and seems eager for the stability and comfort that a steady musical gig would afford him.

Appearances
appears in Fallout: New Vegas.

Glitches

 * Like all the other performers at The Aces, the Drifter will remain silently on the stage after his act has concluded if his allotted time there has not been met. Furthermore, he may walk straight off of the stage and into the audience, instead of down the side stairs.
