Did you see that? That crazy bitch attacked me out of nowhere.

Tomas is a prospector wandering the Mojave Wasteland in 2281.

Background[]

Tomas approaches the Courier after getting into a gunfight with Jacklyn who had been his traveling companion. It is implied that Jacklyn attacks him for his "Lucky Necklace" which turns out to be made of seven Sunset Sarsaparilla star bottle caps.

Alternatively, Jacklyn may actually win the fight and run over to you, saying how Tomas tried to kill her. She will have all nine Sunset Sarsaparilla star bottle caps on her (the two she had initially and the seven from Tomas's necklace). Whichever one dies can be found dead on the left side of the end of the road.

Interactions with the player character[]

Interactions overview[]

Interactions
Icon quest starter
This character starts quests.
2d20 Terrifying Presence
This character has Terrifying Presence interactions.

Quests[]

  • The Star Showdown: If he survives, he will rush over to the Courier. He will tell the Courier about his lucky necklace containing the Sunset Sarsaparilla bottle caps, and the Courier can obtain the bottle caps in a variety of ways.

Other interactions[]

  • If one has the Terrifying Presence perk, they can get the necklace for free with no loss of Karma.
  • A Speech challenge may be passed (Speech 50) in which he is convinced the bottle caps are bad luck and gives them to the Courier. Tomas may also be killed or pickpocketed for them and looted for a low-grade weapon and armor, as well as Tomas's journal. Failing the Speech challenge and demanding the necklace will result in Tomas turning hostile, giving the player character free rein to take him down.

Notes[]

  • If he survives the fight with Jacklyn and the confrontation with the Courier, Tomas will try to reach the Mojave Outpost. Once there, he will disappear from the game, despawning on Interstate 15 near the gates.
  • If the Courier enters Nipton from an unconventional way, such as jumping over the rocky area at the rear of city hall, Tomas may take notice of the Courier, enter Nipton, walk up to the Courier and begin his initial conversation, even though the Courier did not witness his fight with Jacklyn. This may happen both inside or outside buildings.
  • Tomas will only appear once the Courier has picked up at least one Sunset Sarsaparilla star bottle cap.
  • If the Courier ignores Tomas's gunfight and continues to Nipton, and engages in combat with them, Tomas is able to run into Nipton and begin dialogue with the courier in the middle of the firefight. Once dismissed he will simply walk away. Members of the legion will not engage Tomas in combat.

Appearances[]

Tomas appears only in Fallout: New Vegas.
