Notes[]
- Gourd has a health of 0, allowing him to be killed upon taking any form or amount of damage.
- It is possible to kill the cazadores before they kill Gourd. However, if one saves him, Gourd does not engage in conversation with the Courier, simply saying "I'll mind my business, you mind yours."
Although they were originally cut from the game, the drunks in Freeside will often ask if anyone has seen Gourd lately.
Appearances[]
Gourd appears only in Fallout: New Vegas.
Bugs[]
- When saved from death, Gourd seems to fall apart when a certain distance (couple of feet away) is met. Gourd's limbs, torso, and head seemingly fall apart into a puddle. Upon re-approaching Gourd, he will stand back up and continue on normally.[verified]
- If one tries to save Gourd by killing the cazadores and quicksave/quickload in order to take out the enemies one by one, it will likely not work. Gourd will inexplicably fall to the ground after each quickload as if he was dead, though one can still target him in V.A.T.S. for a very short time after loading the savegame.[verified]
