Sgt. Salizar Contreras (born Dec 16th, 2250) is a New Californian and former NCR veteran scout and retired sharpshooter in the 1st Recon Sniper Battalion. Contreras was the first New Californian to step into the border of New Vegas, atop the Hoover Dam, into the Mojave Wasteland. Currently, Contreras is a squabbling, homeless veteran somewhere lost in the Boneyard, scavenging the skeletal skyscrapers and begging for food, forgotten as a shadow of his former self.
