Dukov's Place

Dukov is a Russian man who lives with two scantily-clad women (Cherry and Fantasia) at his river-front estate. The women provide sexual favor in exchange for safety and an unending supply of alcohol. Whores, or survivors, depending on your viewpoint. Dukov readily offers your character drinks (no HP affect). Both women warn Dukov will attack if you have a drawn weapon in front of him, and that he is very good.

Killing Dukov is not difficult, despite the warnings. On his person is a 10mm Submachine gun, ammo, and "Dukov's Special Key," among other. "Dukov's Special Key" is sought by Crowley in the quest You Gotta Shoot 'Em in the Head. The key can be pickpocketed without killing Dukov.

Should Dukov die the women flee for their part, though they return if they end up outside. Eventually they calm down, and are ambivalent-to-wistful about their revised situation. They wonder who will take care of them, well aware of their limited skill set. Any hope of usurping Dukov's position ends with limited conversation options. You can also get a minor quest, Escort, by talking to Cherry.

If you have the Lady Killer Perk, you can convince Fantasia to steal Dukov's key for the You Gotta Shoot 'Em in the Head. After you talk to her come back after a few hours or wait, and she should give it to you.
