Smuggler

Smugglers are hostile NPCs encountered in the Fallout 3 add-on Point Lookout. They can be found all over Point Lookout, however are more prominent along the southern coast. They use a variety of firearms, and wear Leather or Combat armor. Encounters with them seemingly increase as progression through the Point Lookout main questline is progressed.

Above Herzog Mine is the mutilated corpse of a recently-shot smuggler, which has just fallen from some wooden planks. His body contains Leather Armor, Brass Knuckles and the Smuggler's Confession Holotape, explaining his death in better detail. Sometimes if you are at the entrance to the mine and you look up, you will see the "ghost" of the smuggler above you, only to revert to a lump of meat if you climb back up to the planks. If you approach the Herzog Mine for the first time from the water and work your way up, you can actually see him fall from the planks.

Bugs

 * Sometimes the Smuggler above Herzog Mine will appear alive and friendly. If you talk with him, you will find a blank dialog box and he will say nothing. He does not fight back when attacked and you will receive experience by killing him (as much as a normal smuggler) but no karma loss/gain. He can also be pick-pocketed for Leather Armor, Brass Knuckles and the Smuggler's Confession Holotape. (Confirmed PC & Xbox 360)
