The quest text
It's no secret that the trademark of the Defias Gang is their Red Bandanas. But we've learned that the material from which these bandanas are made signifies the member's rank.
That being said, I want you to eliminate as many high ranking Defias members as you can. The highest ranking members will undoubtedly be found in VanCleef's secret hideout. When you're done bring me 10 Red Silk Bandanas as proof of their deaths and I will reward you. Good luck, <name>.

The quest text
Many of my friends perished that horrible day when the mine tunnel caved in. If your adventures happen to bring you into that wing of the mine in Moonbrook, please keep an eye out for any sign which might identify them. If you come across any of their Miners' Union Cards, bring them back to me and I'll make sure their families get some resolution from this horrible accident.

The source of the poison is likely a large metallurgical forge of some kind. Find a way into the Deadmines and locate the forge, then place the explosives.
I will wait for you in the hills behind Moonbrook. Once you return, we can detonate the explosives. Hopefully with the forge gone, the land can begin to heal.

The quest text
We were deep in a vast mine in Westfall, hidden beneath a barn in Moonbrook. No clue where these stinkin' thieving types came from. Anyway, the mine tunnel collapsed on us. I got out but the others... well... the others haven't been heard from.
You look like you might have better luck in there. If you could look for my brother, I'd be thankful. He always carried his Explorers' League Badge. If you can't find him, that badge would at least give me some peace of mind.

There is but one task left for you to complete. Edwin VanCleef must be assassinated. While it saddens me to condemn any man to a death sentence, it is for the greater good of the people of Westfall that VanCleef is laid to rest once and for all. Bring me the villain's head once the deed is done.
