Dorothy (Fallout 2)

Dorothy is the city engineer of NCR in 2241.

Background
Her role is to oversee the town's power plant and although somewhat skilled, she is by no means a genius at repairing broken electronic or mechanical equipment and this can cause problems and results in her requesting you fix the power generator if her deranged ex-husband, Jack, blows himself up.

Interactions with the player character
When first encountered, she is calling for help, since Jack barricaded himself inside the power plant and is threatening to blow himself up along with the generator.

If the quest is solved peacefully, Dorothy rewards the player with a collection of technical manuals she owns.

Appearances
Dorothy only appears in Fallout 2.

Behind the scenes
Her name, and her barking robot called Toto, are a reference to The Wizard of Oz.
