Walter (Fallout 3)

Walter is a resident of the settlement of Megaton in Fallout 3.

Background
Walter spends his days minding the machines and fixing drainage devices that break. He’s increasingly worried about the state of the water and drainage structure, and knows it won’t hold much longer—and neither will he. At 61 (2216), he’s one of the oldest residents. For thirty-five years of his life, he has been working in the Water processing plant, maintaining and repairing the settlement's water purifier. He's increasingly worried about the state of the purifier and knows it won't hold for much longer - and neither will he.

Daily schedule
During the day Walter can be found in the Water processing plant almost all day, and sometimes he will step outside for some air. And during the night hours, he can be seen drinking in Moriarity's Saloon.

Quests

 * Treatment: Walter will ask the Lone Wanderer to fix all the leaking water pipes around Megaton. When finished, Walter will give the Lone Wanderer 200 caps and experience points.

Bugs

 * Like all other Megaton characters, Walter might go missing or turn up dead. See recovering missing NPC in Fallout 3 on how to resolve this issue.
