First Sergeant Astor

First Sergeant Astor of the New California Republic Army, previously stationed at Camp Searchlight. He can be found patrolling West of the camp with a small squad of troopers.

Background
First Sergeant Astor is an NCR enlisted who was stationed at Camp Searchlight. Astor was on patrol when a Frumentarii squad irradiated the camp. While the rest of the camp was either evacuated or transformed into feral trooper ghouls, Astor stayed behind with a small squad to steer passers-by clear of the highly irradiated and infested camp.

Astor and his squad of 3 NCR troopers have set up a small camp on the road west of Camp Searchlight, however they often leave and patrol the Wasteland area north of the Searchlight settlement.

Quests

 * We Will All Go Together: Astor will ask the player to help him put his feral comrades out of their misery, which he cannot bring himself to do.
 * Eye for an Eye: He is also very upset over the camp's destruction, and with the player's help he will orchestrate a plan to exact vengeance on the Legion camp at Cottonwood Cove.

Appearances
First Sergeant Astor only appears in Fallout: New Vegas.

Bugs

 * When asking Astor about Private Edwards, Astor will say a rabid dog needs to be put out of its misery, but no further dialogue options will occur. To save Private Edwards, you must not take his Dog Tag (the 10th and final Dog Tag) by force or by the speech check. You must clear out the giant radscorpions that spawn outside his home, inform Edwards, and then talk to Astor about Private Edwards. In doing so, after Astor says a rabid dog needs to be put down, you can then assure Astor that Edwards "Is not Feral." You can then ask Astor where he recommends Edwards go, or convince Astor to accept him into his camp by passing a Speech Check of 50 or having 7+ Intelligence. Finally, return to Edwards and tell him the good news. If Edwards goes where Astor recommended or is accepted back in Astor's unit, you receive Good Karma and Edwards rewards you with a few caps and drops his Dog Tags for you to pick up.
