Fallout: New Vegas Walkthrough -> Player Companions (Part 2)
Raul - A dry sense of humor and dry skin, washed over by waves of memories. An old Mexican ghoul with a long and rich history. After a life as a feral gunslinger, Raul began working as a simple repairman in Nevada.
While traveling to New Vegas, he was captured by the Blackrock Nightkin and imprisoned by their leader, Tabitha. After being freed from captivity, he joins the player out of gratitude. This new taste of adventure reminds Raoul of his turbulent past, inspiring him to return to his old profession—being a gunslinger.

Rex is the King's best friend, and later the Courier's. A cybernetic dog created sometime before the war, he was used by the Denver Police Department and Caesar's Legion before most were blown up during the Battle of Hoover Dam.

AD-E is a spy robot that stores valuable information. Unlike standard ibots, AD-E is a highly customized Duraframe model with reinforced armor and specialized weapons. He was an ibot on an incredible adventure, carrying a huge amount of vital information until he was damaged and taken away by the owners of Primm's shop.
Although AD-E still retains all its data and understands its mission, its internal positioning hardware is severely damaged. The only reason it hasn't been captured by interested parties is because AD-E hasn't communicated its mission to anyone.
Location: Primm
