Dave (Fallout 3)

Dave is the president of the Republic of Dave, a small farmstead on the far northeast edge of the Capital Wasteland $$

Background
A descendant of a militia from before the Great War, Dave was born 47 years ago in the Kingdom of Tom. According to his daughter Shawna, Dave never cried as a baby. Dave grew up in the kingdom with eight siblings, and used them to form a baseball team.

Later in life, Dave was banished by his father from the compound. Shawna teaches that Dave left willingly after becoming fed up with how his father ran the nation. While he traveled the Capital Wasteland, Dave became a mercenary. Twenty years ago, he was hired by Allistair Tenpenny, along with four others, on a mission to Fort Constantine. The team consisted of Dave, Crowley, Dukov, Tara Fields, and Jeff Strayer. During the mission, Tara was killed by feral ghouls, and Crowley was left for dead by Dukov to increase his share. Dave and Strayer knew they could no longer trust Dukov, and the three completed the job with guns drawn.

While in the wasteland, Dave met and married his first wife Rosie, who ran a large caravan. Dave returned to the Kingdom of Tom when he was given control of it by his father, and reformed it into the Republic of Dave. After he assumed office, Dave and Rosie had their first child, Bob, who is now 19. In the following years, Dave and Rosie have had five more children; Shawna, Mary, Rachael, Ralph, and Flower. After Ralph was born, Dave married Jessica, with whom he has no children.
