Trudy

Trudy is the owner of the Prospector Saloon and the informal mayor of Goodsprings in Fallout: New Vegas.

Background
Trudy is the easy going, well mannered woman running the local bar in Goodsprings. She has run the bar for the past seven years and became, essentially, the town's mother. However, those who would mistake that for weakness are in for a nasty surprise. Trudy is assertive and knows how to hold her own against even the hardiest of wastelanders. She did, after all, manage to make a band of Great Khans and a New Vegas boy pay their tab. Afterward one of the Great Khans "accidentally" broke her radio. <!--

--Unless its bluster 50 caps is more then enough to buy a working radio--

GREETING Are you trying to get my saloon shot up? Finish what you started!

Keep an eye out. This isn't finished yet.

I hope you didn't just bring a heap of trouble down on Goodsprings by killing Joe Cobb like that. His friends might come looking for him, and I don't think they're going to care who was involved in his death or not. Well, what's done is done. So, uh, what can I do for you?

I'm glad that business is over. I like it when Goodsprings is nice and quiet.

Feeling thirsty? I can take care of that. -->
