Easy Pete

"Now I just take it easy and help out with the Brahmins and Bighorners."

- Easy Pete

 is a former prospector living the town of Goodsprings in 2281.

Background
Easy Pete used to be a prospector, looking for working tech, chems, and guns to sell. Pete mentions that he once hit a "real good claim" "out east by the river", possibly referring to Cliffside Prospector Camp. He eventually got tired of the prospector life and decided to settle in Goodsprings, where he now watches over the bighorners. He also occupies a house in Goodsprings where the player can take anything they want without any negative karma, as well as sleep on the couch or bed since Easy Pete never sleeps in both at the same time.

Easy Pete can be found outside the Prospector Saloon, sitting on a chair almost all the time. When you enter dialogue with him, it becomes apparent that he doesn't understand sarcasm well.

Quests

 * Ghost Town Gunfight: The player can persuade him to hand over some dynamite to help defeat the Powder Gangers or to actually take part in fighting the Powder Gangers. The player will need an Explosives skill of 25 to convince Pete to hand over the dynamite. He can die from the resulting attack on the the town during this quest. So if he dies before the quest, its impossible to obtain his dynamite.
 * Run Goodsprings Run: If helping the Powder Gangers, Easy Pete will need to be killed.

Appearances
only appears in Fallout: New Vegas.

Bugs

 * If the player kills Easy Pete (via console commands) and resurrects him, he may spawn without his clothes on. Although if pickpocketed, he will still have all the loot he would normally have.
 * As the player leaves Goodsprings and progresses further in the main quest line, Easy Pete will travel to Black Mountain.
