Tulip

Tulip is the proprietor of Underworld Outfitters in Fallout 3.

Background
Tulip, owner of Underworld Outfitters, is known for her shrewd business sense. She obtains and sells a lot of merchandise, has the largest selection of any merchant in the Wasteland, and protects her business interests with competitive prices and a unique ability to obtain unique items. Tulip spends most of her time in the store, but takes her meals at Carol’s Place, leaving the shop under Quinn’s watchful eye.

According to other Underworld residents, not many people purchase items at her store and she is not very successful at running a shop. However, this gives her lots of time to read the books and pamphlets she finds in the museum, particularly material about the afterlife. After reading so much, she knows a lot about the histroy of Underworld. Still, not many people visit her and she is a very lonely woman.

She admits that she was a member of The Railroad. They were looking for a surgeon and techie to hide an android, but had to shut the operation down because Commonwealth agents were getting too close for safety. She also admits that Crowley recently bought supplies from her to go on some big expedition, but he wouldn't say what.
