Paladin Hoss

Paladin Hoss is a member of the Brotherhood of Steel in 2277.

Background
Hoss is a paladin of the Brotherhood of Steel who is performing training exercises with Brotherhood initiates in the Falls Church/Mason Dst Metro district.

Quests

 * The Lost Initiate: During a training exercise in Falls Church, Knight Church, Paladin Hoss, Initiate Pek, and an unnamed Paladin have become separated in a super mutant attack. Knight Church has been killed in the initial attack and Initiate Pek is trapped in an office building, while Paladin Hoss and the other Paladin are fighting nearby.

Appearances
Hoss only appears in Fallout 3.

Bugs

 * Hoss, the unnamed Brotherhood of Steel Paladin and Initiate Pek can, humorously, be found in several different places throughout the Capital Wasteland. They, unlike other non-player characters, can sometimes appear at The Pitt, Point Lookout, or even on Mothership Zeta.
 * On occasion you will wake up to, or randomly find him running into your house, scouting around, then running out. Note that he steals items.
 * At times when you fast travel, Hoss may appear right in front of you. He will then run away, most likely back to Falls Church.
 * The above bugs can be avoided by asking Hoss for payment to rescue the initiate.
