The Underground Railroad, acting as the base of operations for the Underground led by Vengeance Jones, has become a hotspot for players in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1. The location not only offers bountiful treasures but also houses the Vengeance Jones NPC.
In the Reddit post, u/Doctorlector44 can be seen with low health, approaching Vengeance Jones and seeking some form of healing as the NPCs give out random items to players for interacting with them. As they stand in front of Vengeance Jones, expecting a friendly interaction, Vengeance Jones humorously swings his pickaxe at u/Doctorlector44.
The unexpected pickaxe swing clearly caught u/Doctorlector44 off guard, and with the pickaxe dealing 20 damage, the player, at 13 Health, ends up meeting an untimely demise. This twist to the encounter adds an element of humor to NPC interactions in Fortnite, showcasing their unpredictable nature and behaviors.
NPCS in Chapter 5 Season 1 all exhibit predefined behaviors, and from what is seen in the Reddit clip, players must approach these encounters with caution. While most NPCs offer services or items, others may have less predictable reactions to players approaching them.
