Somah

 is a non-player character in the Fallout 3 add-on Mothership Zeta.

About
Somah is an African American dressed in a Merc Cruiser Outfit. She is initially unarmed, but after the quest Not of this World she is armed with a Combat Shotgun. She was also abducted from the Capital Wasteland while investigating the distress call from the Alien Crash Site.

She is located in the same cell you are in when you wake up after the aliens abduct you. She can't tell you much, but does have a plan to escape. She suggests that the aliens want all the humans alive so all the Lone Wanderer and her need to do is to fake a fight, making it look like someone will die, causing the aliens to rush in and stop the Lone Wanderer and Somah, giving the Lone Wanderer and Somah a chance to escape. After they start spar fighting two aliens will come to the cell door and that's when she becomes a friendly AI again and she and the player beat down the aliens.

After getting to the Engineering Core and finishing Not of This World, she can repair your items (she has an extremely high Repair skill of 100!),so take advantage of it all you T-51b users. But she insists you pay her for her services. If you ask her she can assist you in destroying the generator in the Robot Assembly. After the final quest, she leaves the ship. It is unknown if you can find her in the Wasteland afterwards, but she says it is unlikely she will ever see the Lone Wanderer again.

She can be heard referring to cages in Mothership Zeta being similar to the "sla- I mean, people (criminals) back home" which is a pretty clear suggestion to her actually being a slaver. There is other evidence to suggest this, such as her Merc Cruiser Outfit. Although other non-slaver NPC's wear these, Mercenary (or Merc) outfits are commonly worn by most Slavers in the Capital Wasteland. In the Alien Captive Recording 22 of Somah, she admits to working for a group that she was "just doing it for the caps". All other things collaborated indicates she worked as a slaver, or as a mercenary/mechanic for them.

Appearances
appears only in the Fallout 3 add-on Mothership Zeta.

Bugs
Somah, like many other characters, has the tendency to hold her combat shotgun upside down and at a weird angle from her hands. This seems to have no effect on the game. Also, while you are fighting the hostile alien ship in the bridge, Somah goes down after a serious hit by the enemy ship. While she is down, you have an option to talk to her. When you select it, you will be able to loot her body.

After finishng your space walk you'll enter another decompression chamber once the door opens Somah and everyone else will join you ( via teleporter )and somtimes Somah's forehead will be transparent and you can see only her eyes and hair.

A VERY beneficial bug to exploit is the fact that she has 100 repair skill, if you have a lot of caps, stuff that needs repairing and less than 100 repair skill, then ask her to repair all your stuff, then when he's ready get Elliot to give you some cryo grenades. Simply throw one at Somah, and loot her frozen 'corpse', she will get right back up and carry on as normal (this can only be repeated the number of cryo grenades you have).
