Dave (Fallout 3)

Dave is the President of the Almighty Republic of Dave, a small farmstead on the far north-east edge of the Capital Wasteland. After a coup d'état against his father in which Dave took The Kingdom of Tom for himself, renamed it, and gave his citizens the freedom of democracy instead of dictatorship.

Dave re-wrote the Marital laws shortly after his seizing of control, in order to get himself a second wife (the excuse to his first wife was that "he needed to populate the land of Dave so they could grow and soon own all of the Capital Wasteland.")

Despite the obvious power he holds, the country is still a democracy and when the time comes for an election, you can vote for Dave, (after paying the 250 caps immigration fee), encourage his first wife Rosie or his son Bob to run against him.

He also appears to be completely insane. If you don't refer to him as "Mister President," He orders you to leave the republic within one hour or you will face execution.

Similar, if you say to be prepared to be reclaimed by the wasteland, he will call you a communist and attack you, instantly turning all of his "citizens" hostile.

On Dave's person, should you choose to kill him, or pick his pocket, he holds the fortune you're likely to pay him for your slip-ups, a Chinese assault rifle, some ammunition and Dave's special key. This unlocks the safe in his office, containing Ol' Painless.

If you visit Dave during the You Gotta Shoot 'Em in the Head quest, you have an opportunity to complete up to 4 speech challenges for the Silver-Tongued Devil achievement/trophy.
