Lucy West

Lucy West is a resident of Megaton in 2277.
==Background==
She wanted to become independent and left for Megaton, leaving Arefu. She still misses her folks and her younger brother, Ian. She often sends letters but they have not replied lately, concerning her.Fallout 3 Official Game Guide Game of the Year Edition p.82: "Lucy WestLucy, 25, struck out on her own and headed for the "big city," leaving the small settlement of Arefu and finding her way to Megaton, where she currently resides. Even though Lucy is far from home, she misses her folks and her younger brother, Ian West. She frequently communicates with them via letters she sends there, but as of late, they haven't replied, and she fears that either they are in trouble, or the letters simply aren't getting through."(Fallout 3 Official Game Guide Game of the Year Edition Wasteland Census)
==Interactions with the player character==
===Interactions overview===
===Quests===
* Blood Ties: Lucy asks one to deliver a message to her family in Arefu. This leads to the discovery of her parents' bodies and her brother's "vampiric" condition.
==Inventory==
==Notes==
* If the Lone Wanderer kills Evan King, she will refuse to engage in conversation with the player character.
* If the Lone Wanderer speaks to her after visiting Arefu but before finding her brother, they can inform her what happened to her parents, and she will ask the player character to find him for her. If one completes the Blood Ties quest one no longer has the ability to inform her about what happened to her family.
* She seems to have an attraction to the player character, as after finishing dialogue with her she requests the Lone Wanderer see her when visiting Megaton.
* During the Blood Ties quest, one can extort 100 caps from Lucy after discovering the fate of her parents in Arefu. The player character must have the Scoundrel perk in order for this check to appear.
* Killing her results in Karma loss.
* If one completes Blood Ties by saving Ian, but kills any resident of Arefu or any of the "The Family" members in Meresti Metro station, she will refuse to speak to the player character.

==Behind the scenes==
Lucy's name is a reference to the character Lucy Westenra from Bram Stoker's Dracula. They both have connections to vampires, and they were the first victims of a chain of unfortunate events that affect their loved ones.
==Bugs==
* Like all other Fallout 3 NPCs, Lucy West might go missing or turn up dead. See recovering missing NPC in Fallout 3 on how to resolve this issue. 
* She will sometimes say "I heard about your little killing spree in Arefu. Get the hell away from me!" after completing Blood Ties, even though no residents of Arefu were harmed. 
* On PC, Lucy West may disappear from Megaton before Blood Ties is initiated. The only way to solve this is to use the "player.spawnleveledactoratme" console commands followed by her Ref ID.
