“Here lies our beloved son, Richard Wright. You will never be forgotten.”— Gravestone inscription
Richard Wright was the son of Orville and Ethyl Wright of the Wright Family of New Reno.
Background
Around 2241, he died of a Jet overdose, a blow particularly hard-felt since the Wrights pride themselves on their clean living. He was sold the poisoned Jet by Renesco, acting on orders from the Salvatores, who sought to weaken the other families by triggering a gang war between them.
Appearances
Richard Wright is mentioned only in Fallout 2. His grave can be found in Golgotha.
Behind the scenes
Richard Wright is the name of the keyboardist from the English rock band Pink Floyd. This could be in keeping with the character's father also possessing the name of a famous real-world figure.
