Protector Casdin

Protector Henry Casdin is the leader of the Brotherhood of Steel Outcasts in the Capital Wasteland in 2277.

Background
According to Elder Owyn Lyons, he was one of the best fighters in the Brotherhood of Steel before he took other Brotherhood members and formed the Outcasts in order to continue the original mission.

If asked about the Outcasts, he will comment on how he fought side by side with Elder Lyons in the scourge of The Pitt. He recalls how the Brotherhood was forced to watch over small towns instead of gathering technology. This ultimately led to the split of the Brotherhood and Protector Casdin becoming the Outcast leader.

Daily schedule
Protector Casdin can be found standing at the entrance to Fort Independence, the Brotherhood Outcasts headquarters. He holds one of several keys to Fort Independence.

Quests

 * The Outcast Collection Agent: You can trade pieces of power armor, energy weapons, sensor modules, and scrap metal to Casdin in return for various loot and, eventually, entrance to Fort Independence.

Effects of player actions

 * If you possess Outcast power armor when encountering Protector Casdin for the first time, he will confiscate it, even if you are wearing it.
 * Upon first meeting Protector Casdin, if you tell him that you are in the Brotherhood of Steel, it will turn him and all nearby Outcasts hostile.
 * Casdin automatically repairs any items you give him to full 100% condition.
 * Casdin will automatically equip any item you give him if it is better than his current equipment; this applies to armor as well as weapons.

Inventory
* Henry will replace his armor with a set of Enclave power armor but will replace that armor with the Tesla armor but not the helmet, when you trade the armor for supplies in the unmarked quest, The Outcast Collection Agent.

Appearances
Henry Casdin only appears in Fallout 3.

Behind the scenes
Casdin's voice actor was replaced sometime during production; the audio log in Fort Independence has an entirely unique voice actor speaking Casdin's lines.

Bugs

 * Casdin may enter Fort Independence and never exit.
 * Casdin's subtitles when choosing a reward list 5.56mm rounds as ".556 rounds".
 * Casdin does not accept Tesla helmets in trade, despite accepting Tesla armor.
 * The door to Fort Independence may still be locked (very hard) Even though Casdin said you were okay to enter. If you did not save before this, you could either pickpocket Casdin or make the truck next to him explode to get the key to Fort Independence without any of the Outcasts being hostile.
