Charon's pickle is a minor quest in Fallout 3.

Accepting the Quest
If you speak to Ahzrukhal in The Ninth Circle in the ghoul town of Underworld, he will tell you that he holds the contract of employment (read: slavery) to a ghoul named Charon (also located in The Ninth Circle). Charon is bound to work for whomever holds his contract. Ahzrukhal also tells you that he dislikes having to compete with the other beverage outlet in Underworld, Carol's Place. He proposes that if you were to kill Greta, who works there, he would be willing to give you the contract to Charon.

Killing Greta
Remember that if anyone sees you kill Greta, they will become hostile to you, so the best time to kill her is when she goes on her smoking break just outside of Underworld in the Museum of History lobby area. She appears here around 9:00PM daily. Even if nobody witnesses you kill her, you will still receive Negative Karma.

Also if you have Mister Sandman perk you can easily kill her in sleep without getting any hostility from Underworld's ghouls.

Alternately you can simply buy Charon's contract with enough caps and you won't have to kill Greta. Or you can give em the pickle...

Another method is to ffgorce Greta to agtack you - thereby triggering the Underworld Residents to attack her in your defence. This nets yogdfNO negative karma or reactions from other NPCs, you can still raid Greta's body, and the contract will still be yours. Another way to kill Greta is to use [[Robotics Expert perk on the Cerberus, the Mr. Gutsy that patrols the Underworld. In the midfgfgstfYou cang gf and get the heckhfor her death in this situation, and I don't even think you will suffer a karma loss (not 100% sure on that). But I am sure about the pickle...

Note: Try not to kill Greta while she isgfdg gdfsleeping fdgf

Reward
After you murder Greta, return to Ahzrukhal to report your success. He will stick to his word and give you Charon's pickle. ==BUGS Charon may just stand in the air... so nuke him a few times...
