Megaton settler

Megaton settlers are the unnamed wastelanders who have settled, but do not officially reside, in the city of Megaton,

Background
Megaton settlers reside in Megaton's common house. Settlers are not considered to be citizens of Megaton and due to limited space, are unable to obtain housing. Settlers will comment about wanting to get a house "one day", as well as asking Lucas Simms about getting one.

Effects of player's actions

 * If the player character's Karma is at the "very good" level, once per day while in town, a Megaton settler will come and give them some gift, such as bottle caps (sometimes even only 1 cap), food, a stimpak, or ammunition. The settler can usually be found around the entrance of Megaton and can vary in clothing, as well as change equipment throughout the game.
 * If the player character decides to destroy Megaton with the bomb located in the town's center, any surviving settlers (known as Megaton refugees) that the player character encounters will immediately become hostile towards them.
 * If the player character interacts with a settler after initiating the Holy Water quest, they will complain about the nearby cult and give the player character a Holy water pamphlet allowing one to progress in the quest.

Appearances
Megaton settlers appear only in Fallout 3.
