Bittercup

Bittercup is one of the citizens of Big Town in the year 2277.

Background
Apathic, self-involved, and rebellious, Bittercup is the lone exception to Big Town's desperate, overwhelmed atmosphere. She has completely retreated into a one-woman subculture of her own makin, spending time applying makeup and wearing dark clothing instead of guarding the town against attack. The other residents of Big Town are fed up with her, but there is little they can do about it, wit hthe threat of Super mutant and raider attacks being a more pressing concern.

Through dialogue, it is revealed that she has been involved with most of the men in Big Town at one point or another. She had a romantic interest in Pappy, whom she left after arriving in Big Town, believing that he was a liar. She then got with Flash, who snapped after a short time after he couldn't stand her. She claims she then had a relationship with Timebomb; however, he claims he doesn't remember this, since an injury put him in a coma.

She will give the player a random selection of items if you visit her in Big Town. On rare occasions, this item may be stimpaks.
