Chief Gustavo

Chief Gustavo is the security chief of Tenpenny Tower in 2277.

Background
Gustavo was born in 2235. Prior to becoming a security chief in Tenpenny Tower, Gustavo worked his way up to become the leader of a mercenary band of professional fighters. Mister Burke was rescued by Gustavo and his band, and quickly hired him and his men to form the security force at the Tower. His personality is gruff but good-natured in a, "Don't give me grief, I'm just doing my job, ma'am" kind of way. He soon develops a no-nonsense attitude when his team or his charges are in immediate danger. He is particularly hostile to ghouls. "The only good ghoul is a dead ghoul," he is fond of saying, particularly if ghouls are nearby. If it is pointed out that not all ghouls are mindless killing machines, he responds, "It's only a matter of time before they go zombie. Dead now or dead later. Why take the risk? Besides, you're doing them a favor."

Daily schedule
After the Lone Wanderer's first encounter with Gustavo, he is found sitting in the lobby of the hotel or sleeping outside during the night, most of the time he will stand guard at the entrance.

Quests
Tenpenny Tower: Gustavo will task the Wanderer with getting rid of the ghoul menace if asked.

Appearances
Chief Gustavo appears only in Fallout 3.

Bugs

 * If all humans and Chief Gustavo are killed and the ghouls are living in Tenpenny Tower, then the ghoul residents will still comment about Chief Gustavo as if he was still alive.
 * Chief Gustavo has been seen wandering around near Springvale. This was seen after the Megaton bomb was detonated and the ghouls were killed.
 * Talon Company mercs will sometimes attack Tenpenny Tower, and if this happens, Chief Gustavo can be killed. This will render the Tenpenny Tower quest unable to be completed even if you kill Roy Phillps and the ghouls in the tunnels.
