Mister Burke

Mr. Burke is a mysterious man who can be met in Megaton's Moriarty's Saloon. He's the right hand man of Allistair Tenpenny, who wants the town's nuclear bomb detonated and Megaton wiped out. He can give the Vault 101 Dweller access to Tenpenny Tower in exchange for installing a Fusion Pulse Charge inside Megaton's bomb. He gives the character the power to push the button which gives an untold amount of negative Karma. He carries a Silenced 10mm Pistol, which he will use if attacked in general or confronted. As a Female you can use the Black Widow Perk to seduce him into changing his mind the result is he'll send you love letters, or if you can seduce him and get him to agree to give you 500 more caps upon detonation of the bomb.

After speaking to Burke a new dialogue option will become available when speaking with Lucas Simms which can result in him confronting Burke. Burk will deny the allegations but eventually agree to be detained and suggest that Lucas “Lead the way”. After turning away Burk will attempt to shoot Lucas Simms. You can allow him to kill Lucas giving you access to his equipment or you can try to save him by killing Burk. Either option will not result in any negative reactions from the town’s people
