Somah

Somah is a former slaver being held captive in the holding cells aboard Mothership Zeta in 2277.

Background
Somah is a wastelander that has been abducted and held on Mothership Zeta, being captured after picking up a radio signal and attempting to find the source to scrap for parts. Prior to this, she was a slaver working alongside associates from Paradise Falls with a talent for tinkering with machines. She is friendly towards the Lone Wanderer, but will be evasive about her past. She will recruit the Lone Wanderer in her plan to escape the holding cells and provide assistance in fighting the aliens as they move through the ship.

Quests

 * Not of This World: When the Lone Wanderer wakes up from their abduction, Somah suggests a way of getting out of the holding cell.
 * Among the Stars: One has the option of bringing Somah with them as a companion to the robot assembly to help out.
 * This Galaxy Ain't Big Enough...: If Somah survived her section in Among the Stars, she will help in the last battle by keeping the aliens at bay while the player character engages the other mothership.

Effects of player's actions
After the final quest, she shares with the Lone Wanderer her plans of heading back to the wasteland with some equipment from the ship, finding a new place to make a life for herself. She mentions they likely will not see each other again, and expresses her thanks for their help.

Other interactions
After completing Not of This World and reaching the engineering core, she will repair the player character's items, but insists she be paid for her services. Somah's Repair skill is based on one's level and reaches 100 at level 15, giving her the highest non-player character Repair skill in the game.

Appearances
Somah appears only in the Fallout 3 add-on Mothership Zeta.

Bugs

 * Dialogue options exist to learn of Somah's past by passing a Speech check, using the Lady Killer perk or passing an easier Speech check if the Alien captive recorded log 22 is found. However, these conversation choices are not displayed in the game, as the options are mistakenly set to run all inventory, skill, and perk checks on Somah rather than the player character.
 * When entering the robot assembly, she will stay at the door providing no assistance.
 * Somah may not appear in the prison cell at the start of the DLC. To fix this, use the console and type and then  before approaching the crashed spaceship. Somah should then appear in the prison cell as normal.
 * Somah's Repair skill may reach 100 and then go back down to 75.
