Escaped slave (character)


 * This article is about the escaped slaves from random encounters. If you are looking for the escaped slaves of the Temple of the Union, see: Temple of the Union or Head of State.

Escaped Slave refers to various NPCs around the Capital Wasteland in 2277.

Background
These escaped slaves mostly appear in random encounters. Depending on the player's actions involving the Head of State quest, there are a few different types of encounters to be had with escaped slaves.

Effects of player actions

 * You may encounter escaped slaves wearing slave collars, and initiating dialogue with them causes them to ask you to remove the collar. Success will grant positive karma, but failure will cause the collar to explode and the player to receive negative karma.


 * Another possible encounter is a group of several escaped slaves carrying mostly melee weapons, after completing the Head of State quest in favor of the escaped slaves. Upon initiating dialogue with one of the slaves, he or she will tell you about how they're trying to find the Temple of the Union. The player will have the option of misleading them with a lie or informing them of the location of the Temple of the Union. The latter results in positive Karma, but no other reward.


 * Another encounter has two wastelanders and two escaped slaves fighting over a fridge filled with purified water. If it comes to deaths, the winner, at least for escaped slaves, will tell you to go away when you get too close and fight you.

Appearances
Escaped Slaves only appear in Fallout 3.
