Caravans have small quests with them and...
corosive:
I'm wondering if the merchant of a caravan could give you the "quest" of travelling with them to the closest city eighter for caps or to earn a few caps... This might have already been suggested but I just thought of it and felt like its worth mentioning (again :P) I can't see a way to abuse this feature and it might add a little atmosphere and life to the game's caravans...
It can give players a chance to gain a few rep points with the caravan's town or just travel with them for a bit (unable to loot anything) or just get a quick ride into town or make a few caps + xp... It might even make groups of players "join them" instead of killing them...
Maybe if you encounter a friendly caravan they can even give you a small quest to clear a cave for them (if its in the encounter) so they can camp out for the night? Getcha' 50xp just for searching the cave...
They could even ask you for a random noob item (fiber, rope, fruit, knife, empty water bag, lighter, cats paw, healing powder, etc) getting you a few caps, xp and rep points in return... Getting rep points can help fix that really high -700 with a town... But I can see thieves and what not abusing this for rep points, however if you RP it you can simply consider it their good deed for the day...
Anyhow, reply with some friendly hate mail ;D

This has been suggested many times and we all want it to happen but I think it's not high priority for the devs which, I think, it just as well.
An NPC driven caravan would likely only promote lonerism and solo-questing, where as a player driven caravan would promote teamwork, dialogue and the unexpected. It wouldn't be the same scripted job each time.
Thats why after the wipe I will start a caravan company RP :) I have already tested this idea a bit and it should work smoothly, plus, being a mobile RP project it's much less likely to suffer griefing.
If you're interested in joining (or starting a rival caravan!) you can PM me.
