Smiling Jack

Smiling Jack is a raider found running his general shop in the Evergreen Mills Bazaar of the Capital Wasteland in 2277.

Background
Despite being a raider, Smiling Jack is not aggressive to the player. This is because as a trader, he doesn't care who buys or sells from his store, so long as the caps are there. He holds no loyalty to the raiders he lives with, as he does not turn aggressive even if the player kills them in his sight. Still, he urges the player not to let them see him trading with an outsider, likely fearing that the raiders would turn on him if they were caught.

Daily schedule
He stays at Evergreen Mills bazaar running a general shop.

Other interactions
You can kill him with no Karma effect, as he's technically a raider. He drops a unique combat shotgun the The Terrible Shotgun, as well as a key to his store's inventory which you can loot with no loss of Karma. There is also a workbench in the back of his store.

Players who wish to get The Terrible Shotgun without killing him can initiate combat, making him take out his weapon. It can then be shot out of his hands with V.A.T.S. and picked up. If players evade him, he will eventually forgive them and his store can then be accessed again. If The Terrible Shotgun is taken, he will rearm himself with a normal combat shotgun.

Smiling Jack does not own anything sitting on the shelves around his shop, so it is possible to grab everything off the shelves and sell it back to him for pure profit. He is also known to pickpocket the players items. They will appear in his store inventory. Whether or not he will try to sell them back to you is unknown.

Appearances
Smiling Jack only appears in Fallout 3.

Bugs

 * Sometimes you will not be able to loot Smiling Jack after killing him.
 * The first time you talk to Jack, he is supposed to give his speech about how he doesn't have any problem with you, and every time afterwards, he is supposed to say "good to see you again". However, this does not work properly, and some players can receive the "good to see you" message even when it is their first time talking to him, and players who have spoken to him before can get his introductory speech.
