Bryce Anders

 is living in the Mojave Wasteland in 2281.

Background
Bryce Anders is an injured ranger scout inside of Vault 3. He can be found by way of a door leading to the Recreational wing from the Living Quarters. The hallway to the door (which is up some stairs) has a few mines and a tripwire booby trap on the Living Quarters side and a few mines on the Recreational wing side. He reveals that he is on a mission to kill the leader of the fiends in Vault 3, which initiated the unmarked quest Killing Motor-Runner. You have the options to heal him, help him kill the leader, offer to finish the mission solo for him, or lie about his health and send him to his death. Afterwards he goes to camp McCarran if he lived. If you send him away he will open a panel that is next to the Vault entry area.

It is possible to get a key to the maintenance room from him, which is only necessary if your lock-pick skill is below 75 and you did not pass the speech check at the beginning of the Vault, which would grant you access to all sections.

Appearances
appears in Fallout: New Vegas.

Bugs

 * If you leave Vault 3 after fixing his leg and telling him to wait there for you, but before killing Motor-Runner, he may make his way to Camp McCarren.


 * If you have teamed up with him first he will give you the key to the wing. If you however talk to him again and tell him that you'll do the mission solo, he will curse himself for not being able to do anything right as he doesn't have the key to give the player. He will emplore the player to seek out the key elsewhere.


 * If you enter Vault 3 without talking to Bryce first, get all the way to Motor-Runner without making any hostilities, and pay Motor-Runner for his helmet rather than kill him, when you get outside and talk to Bryce you can convince him to go back in Vault 3 with you to kill Motor-Runner, but he'll walk back home instead, regardless of agreeing to help you.


 * It's possible that he's not even at Vault 3 (outside of Vault 3 entrance)and you can go kill Motor-Runner without him knowing. He should appear at Camp McCarren. If you talk to him, you'll have the usual conversation you would've had at Vault 3 however once you're done with the conversation and dealt with the fiend situation, you won't be able to speak to him ever again and all he'll say is "I hear you took care of Motor-Head. I could've handled that on my own."


 * If Motor-Runner is killed without meeting Bryce Anders then he may attempt to leave the vault on his own and can be found dead outside his saferoom. Alternatively, he may make it to Camp McCarran alive, where talking to him will start the same dialogue that would occur if the player were to have met him in Vault 3 - he still thinks he's in there and that Motor-Runner is still alive.


 * If you convince Bryce to return to Camp McCarran, he may sometimes walk out instead of sneaking, causing him to be spotted and killed by the Fiends at the entrance.


 * May already be dead in the room.


 * If you attempt to fix his leg and go get a doctors bag, when you come back and take a look at his leg again, the doctors bag is removed but his leg is not healed.
