Ethyl Wright

Ethyl Wright, the wife of Orville Wright, is the head of the New Reno Temperance Union $$

Background
Ethyl Wright is a pleasantly plump woman with rose cheeks being the matriarch of the Wright family, building the family up to be a child-bearing and puritan gang, despite her husband's secret alcohol dealings.

Another element of Ethyl's worldview is her opinion of tribals. Having interacted with none in her life, she believes they are either uneducated or deaf and will launch into a loud, slow welcoming rant upon meeting one, believing that speaking loudly and slowly is the only way to communicate.

Ethyl is also vehemently opposed to alcohol in all its forms. She is the head of the New Reno Temperance Union, or so she claims. Given her husband's responses to the concept of the Union, the complete ignorance of the New Reno townsfolk to the Union and its objectives, and that the only other member of the Union is the inveterate drunkard Father Tully, the existence of the Union beyond the confines of Ethyl's head is questionable.

Quests

 * Bust up Wright's still: Ethyl hates her husband's alcohol production and wants the still bashed up.

Other interactions

 * Ethyl will refuse to talk to Porn Stars.
 * Like many other residents of large settlements in the wasteland, Ethyl looks down upon people she perceives as being "tribal." Regardless of how the Chosen One addresses her, Ethyl will always load her speech with what she feels are tribal words, her apparent favorite being "firewater."
 * If the Chosen One lets it slip (or deliberately divulges) the source of her family's money, Ethyl predictably pitches a fit. She knows full well that her husband will not come through on a promise to stop producing alcohol; after all, he had made the promise before. Consequently, she will contract the Chosen to deal with the situation personally. To wit, she wants them to take a Louisville Slugger and destroy the Wright stills.
