Marge LeBarge

Marge LeBarge is the owner of the Kokoweef Mine in Fallout 2.

Background
Marge was born in Canada, on the edge of Lake Laberge. Life shaped her into a strong woman with a burly appearance and a definite air of authority around her. These traits help her manage the Kokoweef gold mine, an occupation usually associated with men.

She is a fairly amiable person, given the rough nature of her miners. She is in direct competition with Dan McGrew and Morningstar, not just economically, but also politically. Where McGrew supports New Reno, Marge firmly believes that throwing Redding's lot with the anarchic, violent city of sin would backfire. In her opinion, annexation by the NCR is the best bet, though only for a lack of a better option. All the Republic really wants is gold, with the welfare of Redding a distant concern.

Quests

 * Find the excavator chip: Marge will ask the player to retrieve the excavator chip. Selling it to her will guarantee an NCR takeover of Redding, provided that the player doesn't supply Johnson with a Jet antidote (or doesn't kill him afterwards).

Behind the scenes
Marge LeBarge is a reference to Robert Service's ballad The Cremation of Sam McGee, which tells the story of a man who died near Lake Lebarge.
