Tom Dooley

Tom Dooley is a "cut" non-player character still present in the game's files of Fallout: New Vegas.

Background
Tom Dooley has a script package denoting him as a merchant, placed in Freeside in the map cell with the bodyguards, but disabled. He also has two merchant containers that, with one notably being named. Which suggests that at one point he would've obtained some of the player's gear (possibly through Kevin Hargrove and Betsy the Brahmin, since they're placed inexplicably close to each other).

Appearances
Tom Dooley was added during the development stages of Fallout: New Vegas, but was cut from the final retail release of the game.

Behind the scenes

 * Tom Dooley may be a reference to the folk song "Hang Down Your, Head Tom Dooley."
