Head Paladin Hardin

Head Paladin Edgar Hardin is a member of the Mojave Wasteland Brotherhood of Steel, living in the Hidden Valley bunker in 2281. He can usually be found in his chamber off the left of the main chamber on the bunker's second level.

Background
Head Paladin Hardin survived the New California Republic takeover of the HELIOS One power plant, and is now looking for a way to oust Elder Nolan McNamara, who he believes is leading the Brotherhood poorly.

Quests

 * Still in the Dark: During this quest, Hardin asks the Courier to help him remove Elder McNamara from power so he could become the new Elder.
 * Tend to Your Business: Hardin, after becoming the new elder, asks the Courier to kill all of the Van Graffs in Freeside, to prove the player character's loyalty to the Brotherhood.
 * For the Republic, Part 2: There is a way to oust McNamara and have a peaceful outcome. However, once you talk to Hardin and begin the process of overthrowing McNamara, you just simply don't go back to the Brotherhood of Steel bunker until you've talked to Moore about the Brotherhood. Hardin doesn't "officially" become Elder until you return to the bunker.

Appearances
Edgar Hardin appears only in Fallout: New Vegas.
