If folks knew how bad it was getting up here... well... I don't know what would happen.

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.[1] 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.
