Traveler

Travelers are citizens visiting the New Vegas Strip in 2281. These tourists, the majority of who being sworn NCR nationals, journey to Vegas with hopes of striking it rich. 
==Background==
Through a deal made between top NCR politicians from Shady Sands and local supporters of Mr. House, the Las Vegas Strip, part of the city now known as New Vegas, officially opened to tourism.The Courier: "What were the terms of your treaty with the NCR?"Mr. House: "NCR forces were permitted to occupy Hoover Dam and establish a military base at McCarran Airport. Well, it used to be one. They recognized my sovereignty over the Vegas Strip and agreed to supply electricity and water once their engineers repaired the dam. Written into the treaty were provisions that the NCR do nothing to prevent its soldiers and civilians from visiting the Strip. That's how I harnessed the NCR to my endeavor. Their occupation has been the engine of my growing economy."(Mr. House's dialogue) Traversing the ruins of the pre-War Interstate 15, wealthy gamblers and middle-class civilians alike flocked to the jewel of the desert known as New Vegas to seek promising hopes of a vast fortune.The Courier: "A city devoted to vice and sin - what's not to love?"Mr. House: "Oh, come now - don't play the fool. Vegas has fools enough, a superfluity of them. They're what makes it so profitable. They come to Vegas chasing penny-ante dreams of high-living, to feel like they're big shots, like they're winners. You see that you and I are of a different stripe, don't you? We don't have to dream that we're important. We are."(Mr. House's dialogue) 
Some came to Vegas just for the drinks, girls, and parties, but a few people played a single round of slots without thinking twice. These poor decisions resulted in the loss of their life savings. Being chased out of the city by the local families for gambling debts prove not to help much for the now-broke NCR nationals, who are left with no choice but to sell the clothing on their backs and engaging in begging for caps, in order to scrape enough funds for the home trip.Destitute traveler: "I lost everything I had at The Tops, but if you gave me 500 caps, I'd head straight back. Sick, huh?""I came east to strike it rich, and now I'm broker than ever. What do I tell my family back home?""On the Strip, everyone's nice to you when you got the caps. The moment you don't? They throw your ass out."(Destitute traveler's dialogue)
The NCR Army had been granted clearance to lead a program to establish camps to cater for the refugees banished from Vegas, yet with varying degrees of success.The Courier: "What exactly is this place?"Captain Parker: "This here's where folks go when their luck runs out. Drifters up from the Republic, locals that can't turn a dime, drunken reprobates from all around. If you don't have the caps to get onto the Strip, odds are you'll end up here."(Captain Parker's dialogue)
