The hunter [[Evan]] will teach you how to hunt Geckos and eventually teach you Gecko Skinning. If you ask him about the traps during the first hunt, he'll increase your Traps skill by 5%. His [[quests]] are tied to using a hunting whistle. In the egg chamber (second quest), you can find a torn jacket, which, with the help of a workbench and the skin of a silver gecko, can be turned into a normal leather jacket (Repair 35+). Up to half the geckos in the cave can be killed without failing the quest. | The hunter [[Evan]] will teach you how to hunt Geckos and eventually teach you Gecko Skinning.

Should you choose to move the settlers to [[Vault City | Should you choose to move the settlers to [[Vault City]] later, make sure to do the [[Black Rock]] quest involving Milo first. To persuade the residents to move you need good reputation or Speech 70+. Trapper [[Evan]] will stay behind regardless. | ||
