Lucas Simms

Lucas Simms is the sheriff and occasional mayor of Megaton, a town built around an unexploded nuclear bomb. He would like the bomb disarmed, despite the fact that it is worshiped by a local cult known as Children of the Atom. If you disarm the bomb, Simms will give you the keys to the Megaton Shack in Megaton. If Lucas Simms is dead his son Harden Simms will give you your reward.

If you inform Simms of Burke's plan to destroy Megaton, he will attempt to arrest Burke. This prompts Burke to try to kill Simms.Which depending on how you react during this confrontation can end up in his or Burke's death

He carries the key of Megaton Armory.
