## **History:**

### Arc 1: Star Nationals

Scott is the leader of Oasis, a small settlement near the Nevada border that Atom had spent the past couple years working in. Trouble had started just before a new gang came in, the Star Nationals, and gained the favor of the town's owners: the Grays. During this time, Scott had put out a posting for work in Oasis, and asked Marrla to keep an eye out for people he could trust. Upon Addie, Max, and The Kid arriving in town and questioning the town's state, Scott made an appearance and proceeded to lead them into his office. He admits the people of Oasis need help: about two months ago, people started getting sick, and they were out almost their entire workforce. They'd gotten some of the worst flu symptoms he'd seen, and when the Grays tried to force people back to work, more got sick. He revealed the Star Nationals came in after people started getting sick, bringing lots of supplies that caught the attention of the Grays and gave them most of the control in town. Recently, people in the patient area have gone missing, as have the town's civilian fighters, with the Nationals not blinking an eye at it. Scott gives the group a lead: the last fighter that went missing took a trip to the generator in the mall, and didn't come back.

After a walking dead attack in the town's bazaar, Grace Gray, the current boss of the town, punched a couple guards that were still too shocked to speak. Scott walked up to her and mentioned they'd gone over not hitting the employees before giving her a brief on the undead assault. While this is going on, a young man in robes and armor walked out of the building and stands near the entrance, an apparent representative of the Nationals Scott had mentioned. Scott then took the party aside and mentioned the walking dead problem is new, and he hopes to take Grace out of the picture.

After dealing with Norman and the Star Nationals, Addie and Atom met up with Scott back outside. He revealed to them he and the remainder of his fighters drove Grace and the remaining Nationals out of town. Addie in turn gave him the brief on what she saw: the missing people in pools of water downstairs, looks like they were trying to make their own undead soldiers. Scott thanked Addie and Atom, paying them for their work with Addie receiving a yellow Lamborghini.

### Arc 2: Anvil Cannibals

While Addie's out on patrol around Oasis, she spotted a man spying on the entrance to the town, and quickly captured him to bring to Scott. It's there that Scott interrogates him, finding out his name is Ricky. Ricky admitted to him he wasn't a member of the Star Nationals, he was simply looking or work in a town called Anvil where a few people were offering a lot of bullets for someone with Atom's description to leave Oasis. At Atom's arrival, he quickly clarifies he wasn't going to kill Atom, merely radio back to his boss, Grace Gray, if he saw him leaving or returning. Scott and Addie intimidate Ricky to assure he won't report back to Grace.

Still concerned about the Star Nationals, Addie asked for details about Anvil, to which Scott elaborated it was a town up northeast, a big settlement that lets raiders move through their walls freely. The three were suddenly interrupted by a commotion outside, and went out to discover a bullet-pocked sedan,  a dark skinned man with bloody bullet wounds slumped against the dashboard. He's brought to the town's medic: Bill.

About an hour later, Addie and Atom ran into Scott while he converses with the man, Luis Saint. Luis recounts what happened to him: he and his brother Brian were taking a job to push back against the Road Orcs plaguing a town called Anvil. The representative had failed to mention how many Road Orcs they'd be up against, and Luis and Brian were quickly overwhelmed. Brian was kidnapped, and Luis barely made it out alive. Scott remained in Oasis while Addie and Atom helped Luis find his brother.

### Arc 3: Welcome to New Wells

As Addie patrolled with some of the town militia, one mentioned they saw disturbed dirt at the grave Atom had made for Norman, a place Scott had specifically mentioned not to touch. Addie filled in Atom on the details, and the two went to Scott for clarification. Scott mentioned he was there for the initial investigation after they found the disturbance. The job was clearly done by shovels, not simply dug up by animals, and most of the body was intact, save that Norman's head was missing. Atom mentioned the Doombringers don't like evidence being left around, but didn't know why they specifically took the head.

After discussing the situation with Norma, Scott gave the details on the job Atom had picked up: he wanted to pick up food, especially meat, from a nearby town called New Wells, in the hopes of raising the spirits of the sick in town. He mentioned the risk of running into Road Orcs, radstorms and hellstorms.

### Arc 9: The Goat, The Witch, and the Warden

In Addie's rounds to check on old friends, it's revealed that Scott remains the leader of Oasis, and entered a defense pact with New Wells, stepping up their security. Under his leadership, Oasis crafted an aquaponic system and now supplies much of the surrounding area with water. Scott also joined The Union with Victor, and serves as a representative of the settlements involved in the organization.

### Arc 10: The Summit

Upon receiving an invitation from Ike, Scott and Victor decided to hear out his request for an alliance on behalf of the Union. By this time, they had started uniting communities and pooling resources between threats, and started to be recognized.

On June 25th, Scott arrived with Victor in Junkyard, to be met with the chaos following Mab's attempted assassination attempt.

During the meeting, Scott was introduced as Victor's second, and helped Victor in presenting his water converter.

Later, after the meeting, Scott and Victor spoke with Choc about supplying firepower for their cause. Scott told Choc Victor was working on the food problem, and he took responsibility over arming their new volunteers. They proposed looking into Damocles resources.

### Arc 16: Rivalries

On December 4th, Scott arrived in Denver with the other delegates to meet for the second summit of the Iron Alliance.

Before the meeting, Scott and Victor were talking about Denver's plans at the Trade Center when King, Addie, Gregg, and Anya arrived. King asked to talk in private, and led the group up to the roof. King disclosed that they had made it past Hellstromme's safeguard's in Denver's system and accessed his files. They'd made the new password Victor's wife's name. They discussed cyborgs and soul taps that the files touched on.

After the summit's interruption from an injured Convoy scout, she was taken by Vanguard troops to receive care. Victor brought her in to a room to talk, with Scout standing guard outside the door. Victor summoning the NW6 to help figure out what had happened to the Convoy and act on the information.
