Fallout 3 Hints

Find a home for Bryan Wilks.

  • 1 of 7: Ask him who he thinks might take him in to learn that he has an aunt named Vera in Rivet City (location 64 on the Zone 9 Map).
  • 2 of 7: Travel to Rivet City, then figure out how to get on the boat if you don't already know.
  • 3 of 7: Once aboard, find Vera Weatherly (who's usually in the Weatherly Hotel on the upper deck) and talk to her about Bryan.
  • 4 of 7: She'll gladly take him in, so go tell him the good news.
  • 5 of 7: Another way to find him a home is to go to Little Lamplight (location 11 on the Zone 4 Map) and talk to Mayor MacCready in the caverns.
  • 6 of 7: If you have the Child at Heart perk or can pass a Speech Challenge, MacCready will accept Bryan in, so go tell him about that.
  • 7 of 7: A third (and very evil) option is to sell poor Bryan into slavery.
