Evan King

Evan King is a character in Fallout 3. He is a resident of Arefu and is the lone defender of the town. He is skilled in explosives and does not hesitate to shoot any prospective attackers. Evan King is spoken of rather disparagingly by the town's residents, who heavily criticize his inaction with the recent raids The Family has carried out on Arefu.

When you arrive to Arefu to deliver Lucy West's letter, he will ask you to check onto the residents' welfare, upon returning to him with news of the West violent deaths, he will send you to search for Ian West, who was taken away by The Family. He speculates as to three possible locations of where their base is situated. Upon returning Ian to Arefu and making a deal with the Family to protect the town, Evan will allow you to make use of the weapons he has stored.

Inside his house (requires level 50 lockpick to break in), you can find the Repair bobblehead.

Bugs
If you bring Fawkes to Arefu, King will shoot at you if you and Fawkes if you get near his house (it did for me, atleast). Fawkes will respond by killing King (no loss of Karma, however), and Lucy West will treat you as if you killed anybody in Arefu (disabling conversation).

King also does not have a key to his own house, so you can't pickpocket [or kill] him for it.
