Grahm

Grahm is a friendly super mutant merchant and chef living in Appalachia with his pack brahmin companion, Chally the moo-moo.
==Background==
Little is known of Grahm's history prior to 2102, other than what minute information he offers in his dialogue. He mentions someone he refers to as "Smarty," whose advice guided Grahm into becoming a merchant.Grahm: "Smarty say once, "Murder is just okay. Trades? So good. Things break if you just take." Think about it."(Grahm's dialogue)Grahm: "Smarty said once, "Trade better than kills. Easy. Live to trade again." Think about it."(Grahm's dialogue)
By 2102, Grahm would be one of, if not the only, remaining live humanoids that was both sapient and friendly towards humans in Appalachia. As Dwellers of Vault 76 re-entered the world and swept into Appalachia, Grahm found much enjoyment in trading with them.
Grahm travels with 'Chally the moo-moo' (rhymes with "alley") and considers trading to be a game with the brahmin.Grahm: "Moo-moo, you need good name. You remind me of... I dunno. Something. Someone. Huh. I like you, moo-moo. Chally and Grahm, Grahm and Chally. Good friends on the road."(Grahm's dialogue) He puts a great deal of personal responsibility into the overall wellbeing of Chally and will frequently engage in one-sided conversation with her on their travels.
A long time ago during a warm day, Grahm used to spend time with his friends and cook meat. Since then, he has felt alone, remembering the old days. Due to that, Grahm decided to cook meat again for his new friends he had made across Appalachia.Grahm: "Grahm remember time, long ago. Weather get hot, go outside, cook meat. Delicious meat. Share with friends. Friends love meat and Grahm love friends. Grahm miss that. So Grahm start Meat Week. Together we meat-cook, we meat eat, we meat-share. Humans are Grahm's friends, we meat eat together. But no eat human meat. Grahm is good. Grahm don't do that."(Grahm's dialogue) According to Grahm, the first Meat Week was on a sunny day that made the super mutant want to spend time outside and cook. Grahm began to have more and more of these "meat days" and wanted to come up with a name for them. Eventually, after tossing out "Meat Many Days," he decided on "Meat Week."Grahm: "Grahm tell humans story of first Meat Week. Sunny weather make Grahm want cook meat good. So Grahm do. Grahm have many meat days. Want to name it. Try "Meat Many Days." No, bad words. So Grahm think "Many days... Day... Week... Meat... Week. Grahm do Meat Week! Wahaha! That great day. Like now. Now great day. Great Meat Week."(Grahm's dialogue)
Sometime after Reclamation Day, Grahm and Chally hosted their "Meat Week" event close to Vault 76, with an express invitation toward the Vault Dwellers. Here, Grahm would prepare a grand cookout, with Dwellers assisting him in his grilling, in exchange for various prizes he'd collected through trading in the past year.
As of 2103, Grahm has become acquainted with many of the newly-arrived people in Appalachia, such as Ayla and Sofia Daguerre.Grahm: "Hey. Hey you. You different than the other squishies. You seem fresh. Not stinky. How so not stinky?"Sofia Daguerre: "Oh, uh, well. Okay. Thanks? It's probably because I haven't been irradiated and soaked with all the despair yet. No doubt I'll probably start... stinking... soon though. Being in space kept me safe from a lot of things for a while."Grahm: "SPACE?! You're from... the MOON?! Or... the SUN?! Or... the little TWINKLES?!"Sofia Daguerre: ""Grahm: "Can you take Chally to Space? Chally want to fly someday. Grahm okay with the ground. But Chally have dreams."Sofia Daguerre: "Uh... I haven't been able to get in touch with the USSA ---"Grahm: "What do Space people eat? You eat meat? Space meat?! MOON MEAT?"Sofia Daguerre: ""Grahm: "Oh! Greenies. Like Chally. SEE? Chally is ready for SPACE! Chally is going to the MOON!"Sofia Daguerre: ""Grahm: "Chally isn't Moo-Moo for long! Soon Chally is MOON-MOON!"Sofia Daguerre: ""(Grahm and Sofia Daguerre's dialogue) He is fond of stopping by the new farms and settlements that have sprung up, likely due to the new business opportunities they bring.Ayla's plans His business is well-known around Appalachia, mostly for the novelty of a super mutant who sells goods, with even the scavengers of Emmett Mountain disposal site having heard of tales of the friendly super mutant trader.Marion Copeland: "I heard there's a Super Mutant in Appalachia who's all about business. Now there's a guy with his priorities straight."(Marion Copeland's dialogue) Maul, another super mutant, also knows Grahm.Maul: "Maul know Grahm. He have pet too, and not eat. Maul like this. Not every food goes in stomach."(Maul's dialogue)

==Location==
* Chance to spawn at travel-type encounters throughout Appalachia.
* While Meat Week is active, he can be found at the unmarked cookout spot southwest of Vault 76 for the full duration of the event.
* On a freshly created private adventure server, Grahm will spawn near the Monongah Power Plant fast-travel location. He will then either head down the road to the southeast, or up the road towards Monongah. You can tell if a server is freshly created by either looking at the time in the Pip-Boy 2000 Mark VI's Data tab, with it being close to 11:00 A.M. on a new server; or, while loading into a server, the message "Building World" will appear for a fresh server.
==Notes==
* Grahm takes damage from enemies, and can be downed, but he will never die and quickly recovers from an attack. Grahm will not respond to attacks from player characters, but, he will fight enemies that are present along his route, which can be used to the player character's benefit by leading enemies toward Grahm.
* At night, Grahm will eventually stop moving.
* When Grahm is near Hillfolk Hotdogs, he can say that this place is familiar, the meat he smells is familiar, and meat is where the home is.
* Julie of Appalachia Radio has been in contact with Grahm, who has repeatedly asked for songs about meat, with "Butcher Pete" being the closest one she can find.Julie: "I'm told there's a certain traveling merchant out there who really, really loves meat. He's asked for songs about it and this is about as close as I can get. Enjoy! "Butcher Pete": how much should we read into this song? You make the call! You know him, you love him: here's Roy Brown, with "Butcher Pete". I'm sorry, what's that? It's a metaphor? Ohh, you don't say!"(Julie's dialogue)
* Torr Buckner in Fallout 2 also referred to brahmin as "moo-moos."
==Appearances==
Grahm appears only in Fallout 76.
==Behind the scenes==
* Three different voice actors have had the role of Grahm attributed to them, including Ray Chase, Chip Joslin and Dave Fennoy (all of whom also voice generic super mutants). Chase has promoted the role of Grahm on social media,Ray Chase on Twitter: "Out today officially - I play Grahm the friendly Super Mutant and many others in Fallout 76! Happy Reclamation Day, Vault Dwellers!" as has Joslin.Chip Joslin on Twitter: "Here's one of the seven characters I voice named Grahm. Thanks to the talented people at Blindlight, Bethesda and my amazing team at Arlene Thornton and Associates! Pick up the game and let's play" Joslin was described as an "alternate" voice for Grahm in a Twinfinite article,Meet the Voice Actors of Fallout 76’s Voice Cast though the exact distinction of who voiced which lines between Chase and Joslin is unclear. Fennoy only voiced Grahm as part of dialogue from the Wastelanders update, including lines such as his conversation with Sofia Daguerre.
* Quest designer Carl McKevitt contributed to the writing of Grahm's Meat Week dialogue, though he did not create the character.BGS_Carl (Carl McKevitt) on Bethesda Game Studios' official Discord
