The civilian escortee is a hapless "volunteer" the players may be asked to escort during The Most Sensational Game in Fallout 76, introduced in the Expeditions: Atlantic City update part one, Boardwalk Paradise.

Background[]

One of the many nameless, hapless people inhabiting Atlantic City, the escortee volunteered for the role when the Showmen issued a call for volunteers. They are doing it for the money[2] and have regretted the choice ever since they joined the show.[1] They are supposed to pass through the Aquarium of the Atlantic and collect blood packs for the Showmen to tally up at the end of act 3 of the game,[3] which are supposed to symbolize the escortee's lifespan. The rules forbid the escortee from defending themselves on pain of death, which means they're entirely dependent on the participants for defense.[4]

The blood is not actually drawn from the escortee. The sources are unknown,[5] but the blood packs are still warm,[6] leading the escortee to speculate that they came from those who previously died.[7]
