Machete Mike

"Machete" Mike is a character appearing in Far Harbor in 2287.

Background
Machete Mike is a minor character who only appears during the first part of the Hull Breach questline. He is very knowledgeable about pre-War tools.

Other interactions
Machete Mike confronts the Sole Survivor after they have retrieved the power tools requested by The Mariner during Part One of the Hull Breach questline. He shows up as soon as the Survivor leaves the Eagle's Cove tannery, engages in dialogue and offers 2000 caps for the tools. Accepting his offer will fail the entire Hull Breach questline and thus prevent the Survivor from receiving a unique harpoon gun as well as the Mariner's support during one of the final Far Harbor quests. Should Machete Mike's offer be rejected, he will simply tell the Survivor to think it over, claiming they know where to find him in case they change their mind. Neither choice results in violence. If Mike is killed during this time, then the player will not receive the Mariner's support as she will suspect them to be responsible for Mike's death. The most lucrative option is to refuse Mike's offer, then pickpocket him as he walks away, for he carries on his person 3197 caps. If he attacks, the player can easily kill him, and because this is in self-defense, the Mariner still offers her rewards for the tools and the quest line progresses. Mike may also be killed by feral ghouls before any conversation takes place, allowing the looting of his caps without penalty, and the normal continuation of The Mariner's quest.

Appearances
Machete Mike appears only in the Fallout 4 add-on Far Harbor.
