Background/History
Victor has been in Goodsprings long before Mr House's Securitrons emerged from the Las Vegas strip in 2274. Victor claims to have been there since 2266 but remembers nothing before that time. Goodsprings residents explain to the Courier that Victor's owner used to live in an old shack in town but not since at least 2274.
Victor has been unknowingly keeping secrets from the townsfolk, when Mr House found the Platinum Chip in the Sunnyvale ruins Victor was ordered to return it to the Lucky 38 casino. To do this he hired seven different couriers from the Mojave Express in Primm. They would carry six decoys and the real package. Uysses was supposed to carry the chip but refused the job to give it to The Courier in hopes the job would kill him/her. The Courier was intercepted by Benny, McMurphy and Jessup just outside Goodsprings and the Platinum Chip was stolen by Benny.
Victor dug up The Courier from the shallow grave Benny and two Great Khans had buried him/her in after Benny had shot in the head and nearly killed the Courier. Victor took the Courier to Doc Mitchell in Goodsprings who nursed the Courier back to health.
