Talk:Cherry

just some notes...cherry is Dukov's whore (one of them). you can convince her to leave dukov, but she wants you to take her to Rivet City. This is somewhat challenging, since she is very weak and easily killed...completed it, but as far as I've seen there is no reward involved. maybe it has later effects?

Cherry seems to leave no matter what
The trick of offering to escort Cherry to Rivet City, then killing off Dukov to convince her to stay with you seems bogus. The next time you speak to her, her response will be something like "Dukov's dead then? Well I still need someone to protect me.", which might be what caused the confusion. After 5 days she'll still complain about not being in Rivet City yet, and take off.


 * I agree, I think it should be dropped unless it can be confirmed. I left it in the notes section for now. 72.70.43.131 03:41, 11 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Damn, this really pissed me off. I like started a whole new game just to get Cherry to stay with me. Then I got my hopes up by watching her leave my house. Well... I could always use Clover, lol. 11:00, 19 Thursday 2009.

Idk but you might be able to mez her and then tell her to walk it off and keep her as a follower.Falloutmasta 04:31, December 31, 2009 (UTC)

Followed me?
So today after picking up the key from fantasia i fast traveled to paradise falls I noticed she had followed me (even though I never offered her an escort.. i hadn't even talked to her. - Ashran111 02:06, 31 January 2009 (UTC)

Happened to me too. Took her to Rivet City. I had tried the speech check earlier in the game to take her to Rivet City but failed and after that the option to take her there wasn't available even after getting You Gotta Shoot Them in the Head. So maybe it was triggered by previously having made the offer.Zenpo 14:57, July 9, 2010 (UTC)

Possible Bug
I left Cherry by the "Dupont West" metro station to explore it. Then, after completion of the "Following in His Footsteps" quest at the Galaxy News Radio station, I came back to help her. However, once back, her dialogues options where now limited to the minimal "I need to go now". She then crossed the river to the west and disapeared in the Wastelands. So, if you want to help her, dont even leave her alone for a short while.


 * You can leave her alone for a short while. However, if you get into a firefight that gets anywhere near her, or leave her for too long (more than a few moments), she will panic and flee. If you see her doing that, you can chase her and sometimes convince her to follow you again when she finally stops fleeing and can be talked with.

Additional home storage?
So I tried to keep Cherry in my apartment in Megaton (Nice change of pace instead of just seeing that stupid Robot every time), however after 5 days she decided that I had no real intention of taking her to Rivet City. She announced she was going back to Dukov's (even though I killed him) and tried to storm out. I panicked, and made a split second decision in my digital wife beater that if I couldn't have her, no one could. One plasma bolt to the gut and she crumpled against the door like a wet rag. Charon shook his head and said, "better her than me."

Not really worrying about the authorities coming to arrest me for a murder I committed in my own home, I propped her up on my pimp heart-shaped bed on the ground floor.

Cool.

So now, I've started to put things inside of her, like batons, baseball bats, pool cues, nuka-cola bottles, etc. The question is, will my robot butler decide that this is just filthy and discard of her (and all of her inventory), or can I safely stuff her full of my junk? It would be nice to know I'm protected and she won't just disappear. So far she hasn't, but as I just said, I'm not going to drop anything inside of her that I'd miss.

If this pans out, it could be great. I think if you kill something and keep coming back to the cell every day or so, you should be fine, right? I'm always heading back to Megaton after each mission so I think I should be okay. Can anyone confirm?

I'm not sure who else I can get into my room aside from my companions. Maybe if I mezz some people and drag them in too, then kill them. It's not a big deal, between 2-4 bottles of water and it's a karmic wash, but then you have a free storage container.

Also, if I change the decor, what'll happen?


 * I'd say this was genius, but since all containers have infinite space.... I'll just call you a creepy wierdo for molesting a dead hooker. 155.43.98.251 19:39, February 26, 2010 (UTC)

--One of my friends and I have both experienced that when you change the theme on your house in Megaton after telling Cherry to wait inside, Cherry will no longer be present in the game(PC). Also, over 2-3 games we have noticed that Cherry will remain waiting in your house for MORE than 5 days (possibly indefinitely) provided you never pick up a new follower or speak to her again after telling her to wait. However, if she DOES finally leave the house for one reason or another, she will return to Dukov's place and you will not be able to recruit her again. ---Confirmation would be appreciated---

location in rivet city
I recently escorted her to rivet city and she moved right in, bought herself a brahmin skin outfit and made herself at home but lately I haven't been able to find her. Could someone tell me locations she hangs around in so I can make sure she has not just wandered into the wastes and died?--209.208.106.233 15:50, December 21, 2009 (UTC)

Hmm

Are you sure it's not possible to turn her into you own private slut ?? IDK, but it would make sense.. just as you could marry mira in fallout 2, you know...

maybe you jsut have to finish the main quest, have black widow perk, high charisma or low carma.. anyway I have to research into this... if this won't work I might even move my lazy ### and create a mod that would let you do that :-D

Very simple : She owns the first bed on the left when you enter Rivet city's common room. She is supposed to sleep here From 20:00 to 6:00. If she is not, then try to find Angela Staley and Cherry should be nearby but she can be trapped in any locked room. Normally, after the rescue she will not leave Rivet city but it depends of the dialogue options you chose in Dukov's place. Even if you asked her to steal the key some options may lead her to try to return to Dukov's ( and very likely be killed on her way). Croquignol 08:13, October 15, 2010 (UTC)

--- Hey, yeah I did the same and moved Cherry to Rivet City, she should appear on the Midship Deck in that room where a lot of people sleep (Tammy Hargrave, James Hargrave, Mister Lopez, Ted Strayer, Mei Wong etc etc), she should be in there.

Can't recruit
Told her I would take her to Rivet. Waited about a day in Dukov's and never got any new dialog options. Ended up pickpocketing the key, and I guess she's not gonna come with? Any info on the exact process in recruiting her? V.A.T.S. addict 03:36, July 3, 2010 (UTC)

Cherry Questions & Statements!
Hello!

OOPS! I just escorted Cherry to Rivet City for the first time ever, because the subject came up this time. I detoured to Dukov's Place while supposedly on the quest for Moira involving the Mole Rats and the Repellent Stick. I don't go to his place all that often and I've never done the quest about shooting people's heads, because I keep having to start over with new characters and thus I've never completed more than 5 to 10 quests. So my question is, have I messed up that quest by escorting Cherry too soon?

Now for some statements! Cherry, without or without a pimp, is a prostitute if she is doing sexual acts for a client in exchange for money, or other form of payment. Cherry is merely a slut though, if she is having sex just for the fun of it, with no emotional attachment or romance involved. However, if she is having to engage in sexual activity against her will, she's a sex slave. Sure, some people will say that she has the free will choice of being killed rather than to live with forced sexual activity on her/rape, but what the Hell kind of choice is that? Most fictional characters that I've seen, when threatened with violence against themselves or a loved one, feel like they have no real choice in such a scenario. Not hat many fictional characters state that just because it is a bad choice and that you don't like it, doesn't mean that you don't have a choice at all, but instead, you have to choose the lesser of two evils.

My experiences with Cherry, lead me to believe that she is a damsel-in-distress, needing rescue, thus I'd place her in the Sex Slave category, rather than the Prostitute, like Nova, or Slut, like Bittercup maybe, categories.

As for killing her and using her for storage, I suppose that one would be role-playing taxidermy ala Dolcett, huh? Thus making her into a piece of furniture. By the way, in the original movie version of, "Rollerball", girls were referred to as "furniture", if they lived with you, just to be your living sex doll. That's quite a big contrast between furniture girls that are alive versus those that are dead. But oh well. In "The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion", I experimented with using Lucien LaChance as a doormat in the waterfront shack. I'd kill him whenever he'd show up to try and recruit my character. Visitors would stare at the body for awhile and ignore my character.

But my point there is, why hasn't anyone made a taxidermy mod for "Fallout 3" yet? A better one than those made for Oblivion, so that people can be stuffed, not just animals. I'd prefer seeing that to blood-dripping corpses and dried-up, burnt skeletons. Leo Star Dragon 1 10:09, April 28, 2011 (UTC)

Cherry, the grand daughter of someone from new vegas?
Preposterous! Where's the evidence? I refuse to believe that someone like Cherry got to DC from New Vegas.

If you accidentally forget to bring her to Rivet City you can use console commands to reset the day she started following you. (prid 0002ae22) and then (ShowVars) for reference variable. Finally (Set DayStart to #number#)

^ The above needs to be explained better, I'm unsure of what to set DayStart to.

prid 0002ae22 ShowVars Set DayStart 99
