Clanden

 is a contracted member of the Omertas living in the Gomorrah in Fallout: New Vegas. He is part of the How Little We Know quest. Upon first interactions with him, he appears to be a relatively normal, peaceful individual. However, it can be later learned through the quest that he is in reality a far darker individual...

Background
Clanden is a seemingly peaceful character found in the Suites Level of the Gomorrah Casino lofting around his room. Not much is said about him and he has little history.

Interactions with the player character
If you pickpocket him and take his room key, it can be used to unlock a door on the other side of the level. (The room is located by leaving Clanden's room, take a left, walk straight, take the left down the hall and is the first door on the right.) When you open the door, you will find a dead prostitute on a table. The room has hooks hanging from the ceiling and blood on the walls and floor. If your character has a medicine skill of 35 or higher, you can determine that the prostitute was tortured for several hours and then recently murdered. You will receive XP for the investigation.

Alternatively, you can pick the lock of the safe behind the dresser in his room, where you will find Snuff Tapes. You can use these to blackmail him into leaving town, or sell them to him for a price. If he becomes hostile you can kill him. For highly obvious reasons, you will always get good karma for murdering him.

Bugs

 * The Gomorrah Prostitute may be found standing seemingly alive inside the locked room. She will greet the Courier, utter random phrases, and even wander out into the hallway. Attempting to speak with the "corpse" will still prompt for the Medical skill check.


 * The Gomorrah Prostitute could possibly disappear, and you won't be able to investigate her corpse.
