Seagrave Holmes is a 30-year old[1] merchant in Rivet City who runs Rivet City Supply in the Marketplace.

Contents

[edit] Background

He is possibly related to a founding Rivet City Council member Annette Holmes, and deals in random junk and weapons.

[edit] Daily schedule

Seagrave is often found (usually on the flight deck) trying and failing to woo Vera Weatherly ("I know I'm not a sophisticated man, but I'm still a man!").

[edit] Interactions with the player character

Main article: Council Seat

Bannon mentions that his council seat is being contested by Seagrave. He wants you to look for incriminating evidence against his opponent. This evidence can be found in Seagrave's room, located on the middle deck, in the form of Seagrave's Incriminating Letter (under the bed, leaning against the footlocker). The key for the room can be pickpocketed from Seagrave, or the door to room can be lockpicked quite easily.

Once you have obtained the evidence, you have to side with either Bannon or Seagrave Holmes. Denounce the other to Lana Danvers (usually found in the upper tower decks) and collect your reward. If you complete the mini-quest in Seagrave's favor, he will grant you a 10% discount on what he's selling and will buy what you're selling for 10% more. If you turn in the evidence, you will receive a permanent discount with Bannon. He will also reward you with Schematics - Deathclaw Gauntlet and you will neither lose nor gain karma.

Main article: The Wasteland Survival Guide

If you are working on the Wasteland Guide quest, he is one of the persons to talk to in finding out the History of Rivet City. If you go speak to Vera Weatherly about Rivet City's history she will direct you to talk to Seagrave, and if you then speak to Seagrave, his speech makes it obvious that he has a crush on Vera.

Seagrave's medical information may be accessed from Doctor Preston's terminal in the Rivet City clinic.

Chronic case of red-lung from all his repairs below-decks. Prescribed a few hours of fresh air up top every night.

[edit] Notes

  • When you first encounter Seagrave Holmes, he will boast that he has a shop selection that carries "just about a little of everything." The player then has the dialogue option of "cracking wise" and asking if Holmes has a T-51b, the Power Armor found in Fort Constantine. What is most notable is that the player still has this choice even if the quest You Gotta Shoot 'Em in the Head is not even started, let alone finished. Since Mister Crowley refuses to talk, and there is no other way of knowing about the T-51b, the question of how the player acquired prior knowledge of the armor is baffling, though in the vault the player probably received history lessons, which would have included the Anchorage reclamation.
  • Seagrave Holmes is one of the very few NPCs who wear a Motorcycle Helmet. Others include Michael Masters and, sometimes, a scavenger, or even a Megaton Settler or two.
  • if you ask for a recommended place to get a drink He'll recommend the Weatherly Hotel when asked where to go for a drink, unlike most other characters who recommend the Muddy Rudder.
  • Strangley, when looting his supply trunk for his shop, he has the housekey to Lucas Simms house and Nathan and Manya's house in Megaton. (Xbox360)
  • if you steal the nuka cola on his desk when he is not in the store, bannon will turn hostile, which leads eventually to the whole of rivet city will become hostile.

[edit] Appearances

Seagrave Holmes only appears in Fallout 3.
