Major Dhatri

Major Dhatri is a New California Republic officer stationed at Camp McCarran in 2281, and he wants someone to take care of some Fiends for him. He is typically found outside the terminal right by the tents.

Background
A veteran high-ranking officer of the New California Republic Army, Dhatri holds the rank of major. He currently has one thing on his mind: the bounty hunt for leaders of the Fiends, Violet, Cook Cook and Driver Nephi. Due to the considerable difficulty the NCR has experienced in the recent months at finishing off the Fiends, Dhatri decided to place bounties on the heads of these Fiend leaders. He shares a particular kind of hate for the three, as they are responsible for the deaths of over twenty NCR troopers serving under his command. He manages the bounties due to patriotism - otherwise, no amount of money would convince him to pick a fight with those Fiends.

He was a captain during the Bitter Springs Massacre and attempted to salvage the operation when it turned out that First Recon opened fire on unarmed civilians. He was forced to act, as the major in charge suffered a nervous breakdown and was unable to command. For his efforts, Dhatri was promoted to major, while the major in charge was busted back down to captain. Dhatri was then redeployed to Camp McCarran.

After Bitter Springs, he adopted and raised Sgt. Bitter-Root, a Great Khan orphan. As a father, he is particularly proud of his son's membership in the Alpha Team of First Recon, under Lt. Gorobets. He has accepted the fact that he might, one day, send his child to death. His only consolation is that he will at least have the chance to see him one last time as his CO.

Quests
Three-Card Bounty: Dhatri wants bounty hunters to kill three Fiend leaders and take their heads to him, for which he will pay a handsome reward, but he's very particular about the means of their deaths - no headshots or decapitations which might disfigure the gruesome trophies.

Appearances
Major Dhatri appears only in Fallout: New Vegas.
