Allistair Tenpenny



Allistair Tenpenny is the owner of Tenpenny Tower and the employer of a certain Mister Burke. If the player talks to Allistair they will find out that he commented to Mister Burke about how Megaton is an eyesore and this brings on Mister Burke's "quest" to find someone to blow up the atomic bomb at the town's center. He also is a bigot and won't consider ghouls to live with in the tower unless you convince the others with in the tower. He carries a Sniper Rifle which he uses to randomly shoot at things in the wastes from his balcony in what he calls "Wasteland Safari" not caring what he hits or kills. You can scavenge the sniper rifle and his suit off his corpse after his death. You get good karma from killing him no matter what.

You can find him by visiting Tenpenny Tower and taking the elevator that is directly behind the front desk. His suite is protected by a single guard. It is quite strange however that despite having an entire establishment full of security guards, killing Tenpenny does not cause any sort of panic or chaos. In fact, the guards and residents do not seem to care at all.

He hires Talon Company, bounty hunters, and perhaps other maladies to your safety if you help Megaton and kill Mr. Burke then disarm the bomb. Killing Mr Burke is not necessary, Burke will send mercenaries if he is still alive and the bomb deactivated. When you kill the group sent after you can retrieve the job posting for the hit.
