This armor used to belong to one of those desert-crazy priests. Said wearing it made him bulletproof. Course, that didn't stand up to a little testing. But damn if it wasn't a gloriously fun time.Everett

The Leather Rebel is a unique piece of armor in the Fallout 3 add-on The Pitt.

Background[]

According to Everett, the armor previously belonged to an unnamed desert priest who boasted it was bulletproof, a theory which was proven false when put to the test, described by Everett as "a gloriously fun time".[1] Everett then confiscated the armor and added it to his collection in the Steelyard.

Characteristics[]

The Leather Rebel is a variant of the raider commando armor, with higher Damage Resistance, similar weight, and similar durability, but a lower caps value. Additionally, despite being a variant of the raider commando armor, it is classified as leather armor and can only be repaired with that type.

While the raider commando armor grants +3 bonuses to Unarmed and Small Guns, the Leather Rebel grants a +1 bonus to Charisma.

Location[]

The armor is located in the Steelyard and may be given by Everett after collecting 70 steel ingots during Mill Worker.

Behind the scenes[]

The name of the armor and Everett's claim that it once belonged to "a desert priest" is a reference to the Judas Priest song "Leather Rebel."
