Ellen DeLoria

Ellen DeLoria is the alcoholic mother of Butch DeLoria, the local bully in Vault 101.

During the Vault 101 Dweller's escape, Ellen will become under attack by Radroaches, leading Butch to appeal to you to save her. Should she be saved, Butch will declare that you are the best friend ever, while Ellen asks if you would like a drink. Given this, and the presense of beer bottles on the floor in her quarters, it can be assumed that one of the Vault 101 Dweller's possible insults towards Butch during his tenth birthday party is entirely factual - she is, in fact, an alcoholic. If you kill her during your escape you will find 2 vodka bottles on her person.

Should you not save her or couldn't save her Butch will just (angrilly) ask you to leave.

Later, during the factional crisis in Vault 101, she is revealed to be a loyalist to the Overseer, and despite your saving her life, she blames the entire incident on your father. Given her attitude its hardly surprising Butch turned out like he did.
