Beatrix Russell

Beatrix Russell is a ghoul who works as a guard for the Followers of the Apocalypse, and is found in the Old Mormon Fort in Freeside in the year 2281.

Background
Beatrix Russell is a gun for hire that guards the doctors of the Followers of the Apocalypse and the supply shipments, mostly so that they will keep her supplied and paid. Beatrix is also a ghoul, and as she says, the addicts that come in is like a "revolving door", from her long years of experience as a guard, which is ironic as she gives good indications that shes a bit of a drinker. She also finds that "physical and mental anguish are especially exciting to explore" as she finds her job a bit dull.

Behind the scenes

 * One of the pieces of advice she will give you is the quote "Time you enjoy wasting isn't wasted time." This quote was said by Bertrand Russell, a British author, mathematician, & philosopher of a similar name.


 * Another piece of advice Beatrix offers is: "The only thing I know for certain is that I don't know nothing." This is an adaptation from Socrates, another philosopher, "One thing only I know, and that is that I know nothing."


 * Another piece of advice she will give you is "Good...bad...the guy with the gun makes the rules." This is a reference to something the character Ash says in the movie, Army of Darkness: "Good...bad...I'm the guy with the gun!"

Bugs

 * Sometimes when you pay her for sex she won't get off of the chair and won't move, which means making any intercourse with her is impossible.


 * She will follow you to your room after being paid for sex but then simply stand by the bed, there are no dialogue options offered to try to fix this but if you look at the bed and push sleep and then exit out once it asks you how long you want to sleep she will be on the bed.
