Ed (Fallout)

Ed is a skeleton in a vault suit which lies just outside the Vault 13 doors in 2161.

Background
He is possibly the first person sent outside the Vault, before the water chip got broken. Considering he never made it very far, he was probably killed by mutant rats.

Along with Talius, the Vault Dweller, and possibly the charred Vault Dwellers in the Glow, Ed is the only other person to have been sent out by the Overseer of Vault 13 to look for a water chip.

Behind the scenes

 * A quote about Ed by Fallout lead designer Chris Taylor: "What's the deal with Ed? Ed's dead, baby, Ed's dead."
 * Ed's purpose is twofold: to immediately show the player that the outside world was dangerous, and to tell the player that he wasn't the first choice of someone to send out."

Appearances in games
Ed's corpse appears in Fallout and Fallout 2.
