Talent Pool

 is a quest in Fallout: New Vegas.

Quick walkthrough
Tommy Torini at The Aces in The Tops casino needs more performers to get a bigger audience. For each one you bring back, you get 3% of the cut (or 5% with a barter check) and fame within New Vegas Strip. There are four performers in all. One is a human comedian by the name of Billy Knight, just outside of The Tops casino on the New Vegas Strip, one is a ghoul comedian by the name of Hadrian, in the Atomic Wrangler Casino, one is the musician, The Lonesome Drifter, east of El Dorado Dry Lake, and one is a runaway singer from New Reno by the name of Bruce Isaac in the Novac motel.

You do not need to revisit The Tops to get business cards after each person, there are 4 in your inventory when you get the mission. Once all four are hired, the quest ends.

The Lonesome Drifter - Before you recruit him be aware he has a unique Magnum, the Mysterious Magnum. You need a barter skill of 50 to get it. If you kill him to get the weapon you fail the mission. Shooting the gun out of his hands in v.a.t.s is another way of obtaining the gun without failing the quest. He will become hostile just runaway and wait for a little.
