Interactions with the player character
In addition to solving the missing medical supplies problem, Richards asks you if you have any medical experience to help with his patients. When he asks there is a low Medicine check of 20 (or you can lie). Each patient can either be healed by using a much higher medical skill or through using various medical supplies that can be found throughout the tent. The supplies in the tent, which were initially marked red (owned), will now be green and can be taken to use as you wish. Whether you choose to use your medicine skill or use supplies from the tent the patients will all survive

Appearances
Richards appears in Fallout: New Vegas.

Bugs

 * It has been shown that Richards will occasionally call male Couriers names like 'my little buttercup'. It is unknown if this is deliberate.
