The wanderer (called a wanderer in-game) is a lone raider living in the Capital Wasteland in 2277.
Background[]
The wanderer is accompanied by three guard dogs. They are found at their makeshift camp on top of an elevated platform made of floorboards, located east of Roosevelt Academy.[Non-game 1]
Location[]
South of Roosevelt Academy is an elevated railway track. Follow alongside it heading east until one sees an explosive chain of cars ending in a bus. Hop down into the valley where the highway breaks off and a red train car has collapsed. Go down the valley a short distance northwest, and one will see a raised wooden platform on the left, which is their camp. The wanderer will be patrolling around this area, accompanied by three raider guard dogs.

Notes[]
- The wanderer's sex and appearance are randomly generated, but the Tour of the Capital Wasteland refers to them as a male.[Non-game 1]
- In and around the platform there is some food, ammunition, a mini nuke (under the table on top of the house), a pre-War book (on top of the table), and three of the relatively rare dog bowls.
- If one does not find the wanderer near the camp, they may have already been killed, and the corpse could be anywhere within their patrol radius.
- Protectrons and robobrains may randomly spawn in the area.
- The wanderer is immediately hostile to the Lone Wanderer.
