Seth's portrait

“Hello stranger. Welcome to Shady Sands.”— Seth

Seth is the leader of the guards of Shady Sands during 2161. He stands guard at the front gate entrance to the small farming community, watching for any signs of trouble that might approach.

Background

The leader of the guards in Shady Sands, Seth is favored by Aradesh. He organized the guards to protect against raider and radscorpion attacks alike. Also, he once had a relationship with Tandi that was set up by Aradesh, but Tandi claims that he's not her type.

Later life

He is revered in the NCR as the founder of the New California Rangers, who held the rank of First Ranger. Probably due to his high reputation, his potrait appears on the $20 NCR bill.
