Meyers

Meyers is a former sheriff incarcerated in the NCR Correctional Facility in Fallout: New Vegas.

Background
A lawman from a small town in the West, Meyers is a firm believer in justice... As long as it's his kind of justice. From time to time, he sped justice up, ignoring due process and other time wasters. Eventually, his practices caught up with him, he was charged with abuse of power, and sentenced to prison. Transferred to the NCRCF on a work release program, Meyers considers it a fair trade. He is not sorry for what he did, but justice is justice.

When Samuel Cooke started the prison break, Meyers hung back and avoided getting involved. He doesn't think much of the Powder Gangers, but he remains in the prison regardless. He believes that it's better for a convict like himself to sit tight and wait for the NCR's return, rather than try to break out and end up with a bullet between the eyes.

Quests

 * My Kind of Town: Meyers is a potential candidate for a sheriff, but he requires an NCR pardon.

Effects of player's action

 * If selected as sheriff and granted the NCR pardon, he will take over law enforcement in Primm, bringing justice swiftly, but sometimes without evidence. He will also defend the town to the end against the Legion, but perish in the end.
 * As Meyers moves to Primm when the player agrees to his conditions, it is possible to make him a permanent resident without making him sheriff, if the player selects a different law enforcement specialist afterwards.

Behind the scenes

 * A cut speech exists with in the game's files, meant to be delivered by Meyers to a small group of inmates close to Meyers should you recruit him to be the Primm's new Sheriff. In it, Meyers calls upon the other inmates to join him in forming a new police force in Primm, calling them "honorable and looking for redemption" despite not having "experience with law enforcement... at least not on the enforcement side."
