Private Ortega

Private Ortega is a soldier guarding the NCR sharecropper farms $$

Background
A trooper serving in the NCR Army for two years, Private Ortega ensures the safety of the farms. This means patrolling and taking potshots at molerats. She is thankful for the posting regardless, as it's safe, compared to eg. the Fiends containment operation.

Like her superior, Lieutenant Romanowski, she believes any complaints by the sharecroppers are the result of incompetence, rather than genuine lack of resources.

Other interactions

 * If meeting Ortega while wearing a NCR uniform, she will not introduce herself and assume the player is also assigned to guard the farms.
 * Asking about work, she will direct the Courier to Camp McCarran and to look for Major Dhatri, unless the player has already dealt with the Fiends.
 * Furthermore, she will direct the player to Camp McCarran or the New Vegas medical clinic should the player ask for a doctor. Should the player ask for a merchant, she will direct them to the Crimson Caravan Company and the Gun Runners.
