The Local Flavor

 is a Fallout 3 quest and achievement that is added to the game with the Point Lookout add-on. It is the first quest of the DLC's main quest line.

Walkthrough
To begin this quest, a note will appear that says that the Duchess Gambit has arrived and is ready to carry passengers to Point Lookout. When you arrive at the dock with the boat, a woman will automatically walk up to you and start talking to you about her daughter Nadine. Nadine left on the Duchess Gambit after she ran away from home, and hasn't been seen since. Her mother wants for you to try and find her and convince her to return. After talking with her, walk up to the man leaning against the door of the boat (Tobar) and he will begin talking to you. He will talk to you for a while, and then will give you the option to look at what he has to sell. To go to Point Lookout, buy one of the tickets in his stock inventory, and then walk to the front of the boat and look for something called a Passenger Cot or Passenger Bed and activate it. It will ask you: "Are you sure you want to go to Point Lookout?" to which you will most likely say yes.

When arriving at Point Lookout, talk to Tobar again and ask him about Point Lookout. Then, walk out of the boat to an abandoned little town with a Ferris Wheel. Head East from there and follow your marker to the Mansion. Once in the Mansion, the action begins. Tribals will be attacking a Ghoul (Desmond) and his two Dogs. After defeating the Tribals, walk up to Desmond and he will tell you that another attack is coming. Follow him into the room on the right, and kill the Tribals that come out of the hole in the bathroom. After defeating them, Desmond will tell you to find out how the Tribals are getting inside and find a way to keep them from doing so. Then you walk into the dining room and you will immediately be attacked by 3 to 4 Tribals. Take them out and continue up the stairs.

As you walk through the building, Tribals will bust through doors and attack you. The first part of this ends when you hear Desmond talking to you over an intercom. He asks you to find a way to block the holes that the Tribals are using to get in. You can do this by either throwing a grenade in the bathroom with the red colored pipe-thing, or by shooting the red pipe causing it to explode, making the roof cave in and blocking the hole. You will do the same thing on the East side of the building and then return to Desmond to defeat the final wave of Tribals. After defeating the last group (Which comes out of the front door) talk to Desmond and he will ask you to find out why the Tribals want to kill him. He suggests that you do this by becoming a Tribal, finding their leader, and finding out why they want him dead.


 * From here, leave and head directly straight, cross the river, and head up to the church on the hill. You will have to speak into the intercom at the front gate to enter. The intercom tells you that you must first pass the test to gain entry to the church of "transendence". The test is collecting Fruit from the "Mother" Punga plant which lies in the bog West of the church. The fruit is at the very West edge of the map. Once you enter the bog, you will find all sorts of creatures: Swamp Ghouls, Smugglers, Creepers, Hillfolk, and Brawlers. Once you've collected the fruit, head back to gain entrance.

Reward

 * Access to Point Lookout.
 * The Superior Defender perk.
