Ranger Andy

Ranger Andy is a ranger living in Novac in 2281.

Background
Ranger Andy is a retired Ranger living in the Dino Dee-lite Motel in Novac. He injured his entire body, and more specifically his leg, when a child dropped a grenade by his feet while he was clearing a building. He later injured his leg again by falling down the motel stairs in Novac.

Quests
Andy will ask the player to check on Ranger Outpost Charlie as an ummarked quest. Upon arrival at Ranger Outpost Charlie, you will find that all the rangers have been killed, leaving behind holotapes, detailing that Caesar's Legion is sending a message to the NCR. Return to Andy and he will give you 200 caps, and an increase in reputation will Novac. There is also a speech check you can complete for 60 speech, however it will net you less reputation with Novac.

Other interactions
If the player passes a level 30 speech challenge Andy will teach the player the Ranger Takedown perk.

If Raul Tejada is with the player, He will ask what they think about Ranger Andy. This can lead to Raul telling part of his past to the player.
