Rhonda (Fallout: New Vegas)

Rhonda is a deactivated Mister Handy found in the Black Mountain storage building

Background
Rhonda was Tabitha's best friend before the super mutants came to Black Mountain.

In 2275, Rhonda shut down and was left inside the Black Mountain storage building. Raul Tejada eventually made his way to Black Mountain after he no longer heard the broadcasts being transmitted, and was soon made a captive by Tabitha. He was tasked with fixing Rhonda, and while he was able to handle the mechanical issues, he lacked the competence for the programming problems of the robot. This, in turn, prevented Rhonda from being activated and caused Raul to be imprisoned indefinitely.

Quests
Crazy, Crazy, Crazy: Reactivating Rhonda requires a Science skill of 60. If the Courier reactivates Rhonda and leads her to Tabitha, they will complete the quest, as Rhonda and Tabitha wander off together.

Effects of player's actions

 * If Tabitha died before Rhonda was repaired, she will ask what happened to Tabitha. When informed about Tabitha's death, Rhonda will accuse the player character of killing her and immediately turn hostile.
 * Killing Tabitha while she is walking away with Rhonda after completing Crazy, Crazy, Crazy will result in Rhonda staying by her body and waiting for medical help, unaware that she is dead.

Appearances
Rhonda appears only in Fallout: New Vegas.

Behind the scenes
According to Mikey Dowling, before recording dialogue for Tabitha and Ronda, voice actor Fred Tatasciore silently read through the entire script once before declaring that he was ready. He then read the script from top to bottom, "effortlessly" flowing in and out of both characters, making it one of Obsidian's favorite recording sessions.

Bugs

 * When Rhonda and Tabitha travel together from Black Mountain after the end of the quest Crazy, Crazy, Crazy, the duo may pass down a steep incline that may cause Rhonda's robot body parts to glitch out. The game will then constantly attempt to rebuild the character with eventual success.
 * If the Courier follows the duo, they may run into an invisible nightkin that is hostile to the Courier, causing both Rhonda and Tabitha to become hostile as well.
 * Rhonda will despawn after three in-game days if the player enters the storage building. This is due to her baseform not being persistent.
