Deputy Beagle



Beagle is the deputy of Primm in 2281.

Background
Before the events of Fallout: New Vegas, Beagle was the deputy of Primm, under Sheriff McBain. When the town was attacked by escaped convicts, he was captured and kept prisoner in the kitchen of the Bison Steve Hotel.

Quests

 * They Went That-a-Way: Beagle has some knowledge about the men who shot you, and directs you to the town of Novac.
 * My Kind of Town: Deputy Beagle says that he and Primm need a sheriff to keep the chain-of-command intact, so he asks you to find a decent sheriff while offering suggestions to who would fit the job well.

Effects of player's actions

 * At the conclusion of the quest My Kind of Town, regardless of who becomes the new sheriff, he loses the rank of deputy sheriff, or in his own words becomes "just a Beagle."

Other interactions

 * Before you can continue with both quests mentioned above, you first have to save the deputy from the Bison Steve Hotel in Primm. If he dies during the rescue, it is completely possible to complete both quests without him.
 * With a 25 skill Speech check, it is possible to convince Deputy Beagle to assist you in clearing the Bison Steve hotel of convicts, after which he will follow you around inside the hotel and help you in combat. He will stop following you as soon as you exit the hotel.
 * With a 45 skill Speech check, he will tell you the information for They Went That-a-Way before exiting the hotel.
 * If you've convinced him to join you after passing the above Speech check, he will become a temporary companion until you leave the Bison Steve Hotel.

Appearances
Deputy Beagle appears only in Fallout: New Vegas.

Bugs

 * Beagle's voice may be different when he speaks with the Courier nearby but without initiating dialog, he may even change to a female voice.
 * This may happen after the Courier leaves the Bison Steve Hotel.
 * Ask him "Can you tell me about the people who passed through town now?" then presented with a Speech (40) Check option telling him "You can tell me or you can Rot in here". After passing the check, you can ask him "Can you tell me about the people who passed through town now?" again, and you will be presented with the Speech (40) check again and again. Each time you pass you will earn roughly 36 XP, and the option will never go away as long as he is NOT released. This works even after a test reload.
 * Beagle will sometimes get stuck in the ceiling of the Vikki & Vance Casino. Going out of the casino should fix this.
