Leroy Walker

Leroy Walker is a slaver from Paradise Falls residing in the Lincoln Memorial in the Capital Wasteland .
==Background==
A firm believer in the rule of the strong over the weak, Leroy is unique among other slavers, in that he does not concern himself with the profits made from conducting slavery. Instead, he believes that the transaction of human beings is simply natural law being put into practice, and takes pride in his role as a slave catcher, chasing down runaways in the wasteland.Leroy Walker: "I'm Leroy Walker, and you're probably wondering about what we're doing here."The Lone Wanderer: "Looks to me like you're getting ready for war. What are you really doing here?"Leroy Walker: "You're a sharp one. We're from Paradise Falls. We're hunting runaway slaves. Have you seen any?"(Leroy Walker's dialogue)Fallout 3 Official Game Guide Game of the Year Edition p.81: "Leroy Walker:Leroy is a strident believer that "might makes right." Weaklings deserve what they get in life and should serve at the whim of the more powerful. He is a rarity among Slavers. He's not in it for the money; he genuinely believes that this is the natural law of the universe. Leroy is the Slaver in charge of handling runaways. Currently there is no bigger issue for him than the Temple of the Union. In his eyes, if they succeed in making the Lincoln Memorial into a shrine for Abolitionists and runaway slaves, Paradise Falls and the Slavers will be severely hurt."
During his attempts to recover runaways and return them to Paradise Falls, Leroy became interested in the activities of Hannibal Hamlin and the Abolitionists, and discovered their base at the Temple of the Union. In his eyes, were the Abolitionists to succeed in their mission to reclaim the Lincoln Memorial and make it into a bastion for all runaway slaves in the Capital Wasteland,The Lone Wanderer: "Not around here, but there is a group of them up north near Old Olney."Leroy Walker: "They are? Now, that's just wrong, isn't it? We're from Paradise Falls, and we've been looking for those runaways. We'll have to go and take care of that little group of rebels. You can come watch if you want. Whether you do or don't, I'm looking to hire a wastelander for a small job. I need someone to bring me some items from a nearby ruin. Are you interested?"(Leroy Walker's dialogue) Paradise Falls and the slavers will be severely hurt. To combat such a future, Leroy led a six-man team of slavers to occupy the Memorial, shooting anyone who merely sets foot on the front steps, while planning an assault on the Temple of the Union. He also gained an interest in finding the relics of Abraham Lincoln, but not out of reverence; instead, he wanted them found so he could destroy them and deny the Abolitionists any means of moralizing and inspiring more slaves to escape their bondage.
==Daily schedule==
Leroy can usually be found in the operations office on the first floor of the Memorial, through the door to the left of the front steps.

The character's name is a reference to LeRoy Pope Walker, the first Confederate States Secretary of War. Walker issued the orders for the Confederate Army to fire upon Fort Sumter, the opening act of the American Civil War.
==Bugs==
* Leroy Walker may appear past the steps in the memorial itself instead of in the maintenance room where Silas leads the player. This makes it difficult, if not impossible, to speak to Leroy, as the slavers on the steps to the memorial are hostile. 
* On rare occasion, he may become hostile without provocation.
