Ferndown

Ferndown is a Caravan driver living from Vault City in 2241.

Background
A frail and edgy-looking fellow in a dirty vaultsuit, Ferndown is hired by Vault City as a replacement for Ben Wade, should the latter be killed on the trail between Vault City and Redding, a part of the Golden Trail.

Interactions with the player character
If Ben Wade is killed on the trail, Ferndown will spawn at the caravan's destination to pay the player his salary. Afterwards, the caravan route is dead as he himself is unwilling to take on the route and he stresses it will be a long time before anyone else takes it up. This is possibly di=ue to the unwillingness of citizens to leave Vault City, and the lack of trust they have for 'outworlders'.

Appearances
Ferndown appears in Fallout 2.
