Anne Marie Morgan

“
Way we figure it, if traitors think we're too harsh in following orders, we're probably doing something right.

”— Anne Marie Morgan, *Fallout 3*.
Defender **Anne Marie Morgan** is a member of the Brotherhood of Steel Outcasts in *Fallout 3*.

## Background

Defender Morgan is a competent fighter as well as well read and erudite. Her disdain for wastelanders is motivated partially by her intellect, as she dislikes people less intelligent and educated than her.

Apart from perimeter defense, she is also often paired with Defender Rockfowl for special operations.

Defender Morgan has undying loyalty to her friend and Protector, Henry Casdin, while growing ever more suspicious and exasperated by Elder Lyons’s decisions. She relaxes by beheading Raiders with laser weapons.

## Interactions with the player character

### Other interactions

She guards Fort Independence from enemies. When the Lone Wanderer first encounter her, a battle is triggered between her and two raiders who suddenly attack from the southern road. After the raiders are dead, Morgan will speak with the Lone Wanderer and tell them to talk to Protector Casdin.

### Quests

* The Outcast Collection Agent: Morgan directs the Lone Wanderer to speak with Protector Casdin about a job to turn in loot for supplies.

### Effects of player actions

She and the other Outcasts will turn hostile if the Lone Wanderer tells her to "Shut up and get that fucking gun out of my face" when talking to Morgan the first time.

## Notes

* She may also be attacked and possibly killed by random enemies as she patrols the area around the Fort.
* She makes a reference to Moby-Dick, by pejoratively naming Elder Owyn Lyons "Ahab" and comments on how he is "Chasing his super mutant white whale" .
* She respawns after every 24-48 game hours or sometimes even after each visit.

## Notable quotes

* "Keep your head down, idiot! Raider incoming!"
* "We call ourselves the Outcasts, and we collect technology to preserve it from tribals and idiot locals."
* "I don't want your corpse stinking up our little patch of heaven."
* "Yeah, the red would never go with all this brown. But if we remodel and still need a corpse, we'll call you, 'kay?"
* "Watch your back and keep your batteries dry out there."

## Bugs

* If killed, she may respawn once her corpse has disappeared.
* She seems to only be able to exit Fort Independence if you are also in the building.
* She may wander off into Fairfax Ruins.

## Appearances

Anne Marie Morgan appears only in *Fallout 3*.

We located three entrances into underground utility tunnels, and confirmed the enemy has occupied and fortified these positions. Some are undefended. We also identified a small weapons cache in the southeast section of the tunnels. We were compromised by a patrol while placing explosives here. In accordance to mission parameters, we did not engage, instead retreating to Base. Raiders will be likely to attach more patrols to that area now."
