Belle Bonny

 is the 55-year old owner of the Muddy Rudder in Rivet City in the year 2277.

Background
The acerbic proprietor of the Muddy Rudder, Rivet City's "working man's" bar, Belle Bonny is known for her sharp tongue, unswerving dedication to making money, and unceasing supply of alcohol. Gossip around Rivet City speaks volumes about the Muddy Rudder and, by its extension, its owner. Even though she has her faithful bouncer, Brock, brawls are a common occurrence in Bonny's establishment, and, rather than pay for new furniture, Bonny typically scrounges replacements from unused portions of the ship. Bonny rarely ventures out of her bar, however, and keeps longer hours than most other establishments in Rivet City, including her closest competition, the Weatherly Hotel. Only those about at the very small hours of the morning will find the bar closed.

Nothing is known regarding Bonny's past, and the tight-lipped bartender is unlikely to let on any secrets.

Bonny was born on 2222.

Effects of player actions
Regarding the case of The Replicated Man, Bonny can provide some information and another breadcrumb on the trail of holodisks, but offers nothing conclusive.

Bonny can also provide a clue to the whereabouts of Pinkerton, Rivet City's missing founder. However, without information from other NPCs who mostly reside in the Marketplace, the quest cannot be fulfilled, making Bonny's contribution far less valuable.

If you kill her, you can loot a key that goes to a large chest in her bar. Inside you can find about 100 Caps, some stimpaks and more. You get some bad karma but nothing else seems to change.

Appearances
only appears in Fallout 3.
