Van Graff Thug

Van Graff thugs are the footsoldiers of the Van Graff crime syndicate in the Mojave Wasteland in 2281.

Background
Van Graff thugs are found solely inside the Silver Rush, guarding the store's large inventory of energy weapons. They are extremely well-equipped, wielding plasma rifles and wearing black combat armor, similar to the Van Graff combat armor.

With powerful weaponry, a very high energy weapons skill, good armor, and a relatively high amount of hit points, Van Graff thugs are very potent combatants and can be dangerous, especially since they will usually be fought all at once, alongside the very powerful Jean-Baptiste Cutting as well as Gloria Van Graff.

There are a total of 5 Van Graff thugs guarding the Silver Rush, as well as Simon, the front door bouncer.

A pair of dead Van Graff thugs can be found at the site of Durable Dunn's Sacked Caravan as part of the quest Heartache by the Number.

Appearances
Van Graff thug appears in Fallout: New Vegas.

Trivia

 * Upon entering the Silver Rush during the quest Heartache by the Number, one of the Van Graff Thugs (pictured here in this page) bears a striking resemblance to Internet critic Angry Joe.
 * Their combat armor is unique, as it is black painted and not labeled as "Van Graff" combat armor. This includes Simon's armor as well.
