Kyle Edwards

 is living in the Mojave Wasteland in 2281.

Background
Caught in Camp Searchlight when the Legion released a load of nuclear material that irradiated the whole town, Private Edwards is now a forlorn ghoul hiding out in one of the accessible houses of the town. When asked why he hasn't left yet, he tells the Courier that he's too afraid of the outside radiation causing him to go feral, and of a less-than-warm welcome back by the NCR. The latter seems well-founded, since upon asking the leader of the NCR in the area about Edwards, he says it's best to "put a rabid dog down."

Alternatively you can say there may be a few left around and offer to kill them, the same three Giant Radscorpions will spawn outside and after dealing with them. Where Edwards goes depends on dialog, You can lie to Edwards that going back to Astor his alright, this likely leads to his death. If you pass an intelligence check of 7 or a speech of 50 you can convince Astor to accept him. Or if asked where Edward could go Astor will suggest a outpost to the north run by ghouls[results in good karma] Finally you could suggest there are plenty of places he could go, in this case he leaves for parts unknown
 * In which case he can be found guarding the camp
 * The outpost in question is likely Echo, however he doesn't appear to actually end up there.

Interactions with the player character
If you have a high enough speech skill, you can convince him that you killed all the radscorpions and he will thank you and leave. Upon leaving his irradiated house you will see his body next to at least 3 Giant Radscorpions which are right outside the door and very difficult to elude.
