Renesco

Renesco the Rocketman owns a drug store in New Reno.

Background
An old man with a pair of cracked glasses with only one good lens, Renesco runs his pharmacy in the Commercial Row, answering to the Salvatore family. He keeps his past to himself, although his elaborate manner of speaking and disdain for Vault City imply he was once a citizen. He has little patience for anyone, including customers, and a rather gruff way of being. Tribals, stupid people and generally everyone piss him off to no end, unless they show some capacity for intelligent thought and even then his patience wears thin quickly.

Interactions with the player character
His eyesight can be corrected through spectacles found on the scorpion in Broken Hills. He is also the seller of the mine's air purifier, required for the essential Broken Hills quest - Fix the mine's air purifier. The price for the item is 100 dollars. There is a dialogue option that lets the player propose an offer of 50 dollars. Don't try to bargain with him, though, because instead of lowering the price, he'll most likely double it.

Renesco is controlled by the Salvatores, making payments to them and doctoring up poisoned jet to eliminate the family's enemies as the Salvatores see fit, one such victim was Richard Wright. He sells recreational drugs mostly, which is why he was given his appellation, 'the Rocketman.' He also sells some caravan supplies.
