I do know basic first aid, but I've had to rely on tribal remedies to treat illnesses and injuries - healing powders and all that.Siri

Powder to the People[1] is an unmarked quest in Fallout: New Vegas.

Quick walkthrough[]

Unmarked Quest: Powder to the People 
Talk to Siri
If player has good Legion reputation, you can ask her for some healing powder once a day. 
Improve her recipe with a Survival check of 20 to get a more potent healing powder once a day. 
Reward: Healing powder
Legion fame 

Detailed walkthrough[]

When talking to Siri, a female slave working for Caesar's Legion at The Fort, she will tell the Courier about her tough life as well as her healing powder.

With a Legion reputation of good or better, the player character can get it from her. Additionally, with a minimum Survival skill of 20, she can be told how to improve the recipe she is currently using.

The player character can then return to her once a day to get some free healing powder. If she has been given the better recipe, she will give the player character six healing powders.

Behind the scenes[]

The quest name is a play-on-words of the phrase "Power to the people."
