Rudy Fernandez

Rodolfo "Rudy" Fernandez is a client of the Blue Ridge Caravan Company at Big Bend Tunnel in 2103.

Background
Formerly a self-appointed Director of Morale Enhancement, Rudy worked at his family's cannery and bakery, similar to Mama Dolce's Food Processing, near Appalachia, telling jokes to the workers as the resident comedian. However, his brothers wanted him to leave, forcing Rudy to take a job as a client of the Blue Ridge Caravan Company, selling pepperoni rolls, telling jokes, and making deliveries.

Appearances
Rudy Fernandez appears only in Fallout 76, introduced in the Wastelanders update.

Behind the scenes
Rudy will occasionally say "Rudy has wares, if you have caps." This is a reference to a similar line spoken by the Khajiit in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, another Bethesda Softworks title ("Khajiit has wares, if you have coin."). Carl McKevitt, who contributed to much of the Blue Ridge Caravan Company's design and writing, including Rudy, confirmed that this was intentional.
