Samuel (Wastelanders)

Samuel is a member of the settlers residing in Foundation in 2103.

Background
Samuel claims that he comes from a vault similar to the Vault 76 residents, but does not state any specific details. He insists that the residents wouldn't have heard of it and that the vault is very far away and extremely well hidden - so well hidden, in fact, that even he doesn't know how to get to it. This is all a lie. Although he indicates that he misses vault living at times, he is glad to be free of tests subjected upon him in the vault. Samuel wears Vault-Tec University athletics gear but doesn't have a Pip-Boy or vault jumpsuit. He will often act confused by the use of words from the Pennsylvania dialect, such as "yinz" and "jawn," while also using the word "hoagie" before correcting himself to "sandwich," making his origin all the more mysterious. Elsie Taylor also states that Samuel is one of the newer citizens of Foundation, which suggests he joined the Settlers after they had reached Appalachia. He also plays Nuka Tapper, although he has lost his saved games. He is also an avid lyricist, though a particularly bad one.

After the events of Secrets Revealed, the last quest in the Wastelanders main questline, Ward assigns the gold bullion exchange to Samuel. . He sells rare plans to the residents in exchange for gold bullion, with plan rarity dependent on one's reputation with the settlers.

Merchandise
Samuel sells rare plans. The availability of merchandise depends on one's reputation with the settlers. He only trades in gold bullion.

Appearances
Samuel appears in Fallout 76, introduced in the Wastelanders update.
