Grouse

Grouse is a slaver at Paradise Falls in 2277.

Background
Grouse was born in 2247, and he has been with the slavers since he was a teenager (he is now 30). His father was the former leader before Eulogy usurped him and rose to power, and Grouse has a legacy to live up to. He isn't fond of Eulogy, but he knows that if he moves against him, most of the slavers would turn on him. He sits at the checkpoint entrance wearing a permanent scowl.

Quests

 * Strictly Business: Grouse mentions that Eulogy Jones wants to acquire some VIP targets. If you accept his proposal to capture some slaves he will give you a list of some priority targets.
 * Strictly Profitable: After completion of Strictly Business you can continue to enslave certain people and he will pay you 250 caps per slave. If your karma is "evil" and you have gained entry into Paradise Falls, you will be able to do this during completion of Strictly Business (as well as after).

Other interactions

 * He sells Mesmetron power cells when asked, at 10 cells for 200 bottle caps.
 * While doing the Blood Ties quest you can ask him about The Family.

Appearances
Grouse appears only in Fallout 3.

Behind the scenes

 * Grouse, by definition, means to complain, which he does a lot.
