Moira Brown

 is the eccentric owner of Craterside Supply in Megaton in 2277.

Background
Moira was born in 2253 in the trading community of Canterbury Commons, but lives in Megaton in 2277.

Daily schedule
Moira is the owner of Craterside Supply. She spends the day sweeping and trading as well as conducting odd experiments. She opens the store at 8:00am and closes at 8:00pm. She lives at the store and thus never leaves. The only time she will leave is if Megaton is destroyed. She will then make her way to Underworld.

Quests

 * Moira wants you to do some dangerous research for a book she is writing entitled The Wasteland Survival Guide.

Effects of player actions

 * If you decide to blow up Megaton she will not die; instead she will be ghoulified. You will have to visit the Megaton Ruins to find her, whereupon she will claim she was 'out-of-town' during the detonation, and apparently unaware of her recent affliction. Depending on how you break the news to her, she will either fall into despair or remain positive.
 * While talking to the Ghoulified Moira for the first time, you can lie and tell her you're not responsible for the explosion, or tell her you exploded the city to kill her. If you choose the first option, you can tell her about Underworld, which she will immediately depart for. However, if you choose the second option, the conversation will end, she will turn hostile and flee.

Appearances
appears in Fallout 3

Bugs

 * Occasionally, Moira will not move from the Megaton ruins after the town has been destroyed if you have completed the quest The Wasteland Survival Guide. She will stand in front of Megaton and can only repair.
 * If the player kills Moira Brown before destroying Megaton, you will still receive the message saying she has moved to Underworld, and Three Dog will still announce that she can be found there; however, she will still be dead and will not appear there.
