See that one there? That's my favorite - that one's Edna. I name all my stuff, see - they're like chidlren to me. I hate having to sell 'em, but I got to eat.
”Ratch is a junkyard owner in Shady Sands in Fallout 2.
Background[]
A seemingly sentient heap of rags with a smell befitting the giant junkyard he owns, Ratch is actually a very capable mechanic, except his skills in engineering did not extend to his skills in personal hygiene. An eccentric (very smelly eccentric), Ratch is nonetheless a polite person who is a good source of spare parts and rare equipment. He names his most prized possessions, out of habit.
