Tammy Hargrave is the alcoholic mother of James Hargrave and can be found in the common bedroom area on the midship deck of Rivet City, The Muddy Rudder, or occasionally, the Marketplace.

[edit] Mesmetron enslavement

She can be enslaved. The easiest way to do this is to stealthily assassinate Brock, then wait 72 hours and go into the Muddy Rudder. No one asks questions there, except the late bouncer Brock. If Tammy isn't in the bar, she soon will be. Simply Mezz, collar, and walk away whistling. Another option is to wait outside the main doors of Rivet City. She'll come outside for a smoke, and then you can easily Mezz her and collar her. As long as no one is outside to witness you putting the collar on her, no one in Rivet City will become hostile to you.

The enslavement of Tammy has very little effect on the game. The option to ask why James is such a brat changes to the NPC telling you that the loss of his mom pushed him over the edge. Tammy is "the bitch" in Rivet City, and has absolutely no impact on the game in general.

[edit] Notes

  • Tammy can be heard talking in her sleep, mentioning Megaton. She mentions that her husband left and got himself killed. While in Andale one of the men mentions one of their victims who told them that he has a kid in Rivet City. This man was likely Tammy's husband and her son's father.
  • Many times, when James Hargrave and Tammy sit to eat in the marketplace, Tammy will say give me the usual, make it rare, and then tell Gary to serve James something that is not too expensive as he has been a 'naughty boy.'
  • There's sort of a glitch here. Talk to James and a dialogue selection should come up that says, You should just run away to prove your point. If you have high enough speech skill you will convince him to run away and you'll get a bad karma boost, but if you catch him before he leaves and talk to him, he should say something about how he wants you to take him back home. If you want good karma, say Come on I'll take you back and you will get 2 good karma boosts. Or you can simply say You're on your own kid just to keep the bad karma, depending on how you're developing your player.
  • Its been heard someware In the game eather by Tammy or her som that she used to be "the queen of the Mirelurks or something".
