Machete (character)

Machete is a junior law enforcer in Canterbury Commons in Fallout 3.

Background
Machete was born in 2258. She is one of the fiercest defenders Little Lamplight has ever seen: Machete earned her nickname at the age of 7, when she killed a mole rat in the caves armed only with a knife as big as her arm. Since then, she has been a bona fide celebrity. When she turned 16, she got disoriented in a dust storm and got lost, eventually arriving at Canterbury Commons instead of Big Town. To this day, she refuses to admit that she went to the wrong place. Still, Dominic D'Ellsadro, Canterbury Commons' senior law enforcer, saw her potential to provide security for the future of the camp, and after a year of his guidance, she has earned a fair amount of respect from the locals.

This respect may have gotten to her head a little too much; she is convinced that Canterbury Commons would completely fall apart without her or Dominic to keep people from causing trouble, and she neither has faith in nor any respect for Mayor Roe. Other facets of her attitude are similar: she is curt and generally unpleasant, citing that her job is much too important for her to be doing anything other than her job and her sole purpose is to "keep some of those caravaneers in line." The only person she respects is Dominic with whom she shares a place. Despite her unpleasant demeanor, Derek Pacion has a crush on her.

Daily schedule
Machete patrols Canterbury Commons from 8:00 A.M. to 12:00 P.M., eats until 1:00 P.M., patrols till 6:00 P.M., eats till 7:00 P.M., then patrols again till 2:00 A.M., after which she goes to bed and wakes up at 8:00 A.M.
