“In case you haven't noticed, I run a fabulous shop, and live in the most fabulous of places. You can't push people like me around! Ha!”

Anthony Ling is a resident of Tenpenny Tower who runs the store New Urban Apparel in 2277.

Background

Anthony is the owner of New Urban Apparel, a shop that sells clothing items to the residents of Tenpenny Tower. As one of the few purveyors of high-quality clothes, his selection is unrivaled within the Capital Wasteland. Anthony has salvaged many pre-War items over time, and their excellent condition is a point of pride for him.

Effects of player's actions

• If forced out of Tenpenny Tower through dialogue, he may be found loitering around Megaton's entrance.

Notes

• He will comment negatively on the Lone Wanderer's clothing, regardless of what they are wearing.
• Anthony Ling can vanish from Tenpenny Tower if he has been robbed before trying to convince him to live with ghouls, but after talking to Mr. Tenpenny he will be noted as convinced and payment can be received.
• Anthony's AI packages suggest he may be homosexual. In particular, he is assigned a script package with the ID AnthonyLingFlirtWithMaleGuards, which directs him to seek out Tenpenny guards and engage them in conversation. Millicent Wellington makes a reference to him flirting with the guards in one of the random conversations she may have with her husband. She suggests, however, that Ling should find a nice girl to settle down with.

Notable quotes

• "Those clothes are atrocious. You should stop by my shop, New Urban Apparel, and freshen up that look. Upgrade to fabulous!"
