Jed Masterson

Jed Masterson is a traveling merchant who works for the Happy Trails Caravan Company living in the Mojave Wasteland in 2281.

Background
Jed is a caravaneer who works with the Happy Trails Caravan Company and is looking to prosper by trading with the Mormons in New Canaan. In order to get past all of the treacherous terrain in Zion Canyon, he needs someone with a Pip-Boy 3000 in order to map out the area. This is where the player comes in.

Jed appears to have a close relationship with Stella. When she is shot, Jed reacts in a more dramatic sense than he does with the others. When the Courier threatens Ricky and makes him leave, Jed seems glad to hear the news.
