Fannie Mae

Fannie Mae is a Redding prostitute addicted to Jet in 2241.

Background
A rather worn woman, Fannie works as a prostitute for the Malamute Saloon, selling her body to miners. She is hopelessly addicted to jet and often attempts to con visitors out of their money to buy more of the drug, usually by making up a sad story about her being indebted to the saloon's owner, Louise and needing cash to pay her off.

Interactions with the player character
The Chosen One can elect to sleep with her for $60 a night (available only to males) or to give her money to fuel her addiction.

Originally, the player was supposed to be able to help her overdose jet or shake off the habit. However, scripting errors (fixed in the Fallout 2 Restoration Project) prevent the dialogue from being accessible. With the patch enabled, the player is able to use the Jet Antidote to cure her; however, this selfless action has its consequences: use of the antidote on Fannie Mae removes it from the player's inventory.

Appearances
Fannie Mae appears in Fallout 2.

Behind the scenes
Fannie Mae's name is a reference to Federal National Mortgage Association (nicknamed Fannie Mae), the housing corporation.
