Scorched Sierra Power Armor

The scorched Sierra power armor is a piece of armor in the Fallout: New Vegas add-on Lonesome Road.

Characteristics
The scorched Sierra power armor is a T-45d power armor that has been heavily modified by the NCR for its officers. The left shoulder pad has been replaced with a taxidermied bear's head, held in place by a green mantle with a bronze star medallion clip. The back-mounted power cylinders have been replaced by a more streamlined box unit with glowing green panels. Glowing green panels also appear on the forearms.

Unlike NCR salvaged power armor, scorched Sierra power armor is still fully functional, retaining its servo-motors. As such, Power Armor Training is required in order to wear this armor.

It provides a Damage Threshold of 24 and a bonus of Fire Resistance +25 and STR +1. Most notably, it is unique in giving a health regeneration bonus of 2 HP per second. It can be repaired with power armor. Its corresponding helmet does not appear in the game, although all the assets are included in the game's files.

Locations
On the body of Colonel Royez in the Long 15.

Behind the scenes
The armor was inspired by a mod made for the PC version of New Vegas. In an interview with Chris Avellone, he said "The armor was something one of the staff members saw, and we thought it would be the coolest thing to put in one of the last add-on for Vegas."
