Mod:Washington's Malevolence/Old Runners

""

"Old Runners" is the first half of the sixth quest in the main quest line of Washington's Malevolence.

The Story
The player and Jimmy meet on the northern end of the beach near Clearbank after escaping from Sterrek Island, and begin discussing their next move. As they wrap up their conversation, Lizzie appears from behind the nearby rock formation. Jimmy informs her that her older twin brothers, Eyes and Sterling, are very much alive and as tied up in the current situation as they are, but before they can be dealt with, Jimmy must face his former running mate, Ralph Moritz, who had been living in Merideport for years unbeknownst to him. Jimmy, Lizzie, and the player travel to Ralph's house, where he is immediately spooked as Jimmy enters the house and immediately reams him out for his past transgressions. Ralph makes a promise to Jimmy to make things right by helping them into the Rocky Cape Bank, rather than fleeing as he did in the past. Jimmy eventually relents and Ralph follows Jimmy and company back to his shack.

Objectives

 * 1) Take Jimmy to Ralph Moritz in Merideport.
 * 2) Travel to the Rolfe Hospital to find information on Marion Baker and Ian Horner's whereabouts.

Trivia

 * "Old Runners" was originally meant to be an optional side quest; in early development builds, the player was never required to recruit Marion Baker and Ian Horner, nor were they meant to be found in Vault 89, instead appearing in Flackland in the town's bar, "Lowland Grub", passing through on their way to the Commonwealth.
 * This quest is the introduction of Lizzie into the party; however, her introduction (and backstory) were originally very different from the finished version, which is described in her character page.
