Thomas Moore

Thomas Moore is the vocal abolitionist and proponent of opening the Vault City entrance to outsiders that wailed out his beliefs in the downtown of Vault City, in 2241.

Background
His unkempt hair and scruffy beard, contrast with his clothes that look clean and well-cared for. Most Citizens just ignore him, preferring not to talk to someone obviously crazy in their eyes. Interestingly, Moore was not born a vault citizen but managed to gain citizenship presumably by passing the arduous citizenship test to gain access to Vault 8 and citizenship. He became a Vault City citizen in 2240.

In reality, Thomas Moore is an undercover NCR agent gathering intelligence on Vault City and smuggling its technology outside. His contact is John Bishop of New Reno, to whom the Chosen One can deliver a briefcase containing Moore's intel and a piece of VC tech.

Quests

 * Deliver Moore's briefcase to Mr. Bishop in New Reno: Moore asks you to go to New Reno and deliver a briefcase to Bishop.

Effects of player action

 * You cannot do any quests with him if you are a slaver.

Other interactions

 * Moore can be ratted out to Joanne Lynette, which ends up with him being permanently banished from the city, and his citizenship getting revoked.
 * You can mention that he is a threat to Vault City to Lynette and offer to kill him, however she will refuse. Pushing the issue will have you kicked out of Vault City and your citizenship revoked.

Appearances
Thomas Moore only appears in Fallout 2.

Behind the scenes
He is often believed to be a throwback to either Sir Thomas More or Michael Moore, but in fact he's just a reference to Chad Moore, one of the Fallout 2 developers.
