Knight (Fallout: New Vegas)

Major Knight is a Californian officer in the New California Republic Army stationed at the Mojave Outpost in Fallout: New Vegas.

Background
Major Knight has been stationed at the Mojave Outpost "for ages now" dealing with the caravans that come through. Dealing mostly refers to logging outpost traffic, which is slowly building up as more people come in and less go out, much to his annoyance. His main role is to repair the soldiers' and travelers' items in exchange for caps. He is an expert repairman, so he charges a lot for repairs.

Despite the Mojave Outpost being the administrative headquarters in the area around Primm, and as much as Knight would like to offer support to Lieutenant Hayes' unit near Primm, red tape prevents him from doing so. He may be willing to lend a hand against orders in order to help Primm but it would take a lot of convincing or a lot of bottle caps.

Although he is homosexual, Knight is currently hiding his sexuality while at the outpost. While they are accepted back west in California, "friendships," as he calls them, do not fair well at the outpost on the fringes of the republic. If he could have "friendships," he would, but while he is on duty he must stay professional. All things considered, the Republic is still a sight better than Caesar's Legion so Knight doesn't mind keeping secrets.

Quests

 * My Kind of Town: Major Knight can be convinced to send some needed aid to Primm. Alternatively, he can be convinced to give Meyers a pardon so he can become Primm's new sheriff if chosen by the courier.

Other interactions

 * With Confirmed Bachelor, a male Courier can flirt with Major Knight. The embarrassed Major will deny the advances, stating that gay relationships might be accepted in the heartland, but the frontier is much less tolerant.
 * If Ranger Jackson dies for any reason, Knight will stop repairing items or engaging in dialogue.

Inventory
* Bottle caps spent on repair are added to his inventory.
