The Muddy Rudder is a bar located in Rivet City's lower deck.
Background
Belle Bonny says she has owned and operated the bar for thirty years, since 2247. [1] It is guarded by Brock the bouncer, who gets into fights frequently with Sister.
Trinnie, Tammy Hargrave, Brock, Sister, and Butch DeLoria (after Trouble on the Homefront) frequent the place.
Layout
There is a pool table on the top floor and a couple of chairs with Brock guarding the door. On both sides of the top floor are staircases that lead to the bar. Downstairs is the muddy rudder itself, there are a few tables with random miscellaneous objects and food items like iguana-on-a-stick. All the way in the back of the bar is a locked door (very easy lock) to Belle Bonny's room which has a few beds and footlockers with some food items.
Notable loot
- 31 shot glasses, the highest amount in a single area in the game.
Notes
- Following the Trouble on the Homefront quest (regardless of how it was completed), Butch can be found here. He will join you in your adventures if you have neutral Karma, otherwise he will tell you that you don't have what it takes to be in his "Gang".
- Trinnie will disclose the location of Belle's 'stash' after giving her 25 caps for drinks (done by giving 5 caps 5 times).
- Belle's stash is under the first bed on the left. It will be empty unless Trinnie tells you about it.
Appearances
The Muddy Rudder appears only in Fallout 3.
Bugs
If you manage to get Butch into the Muddy Rudder, you can talk to him but there will be no dialogue options. [verified]
