Roshambo is a crazy old man and an ex-Brotherhood of Steel member who in 2197 lives in Osceolla.
Background
Roshambo was a Brotherhood of Steel paladin who traveled East in one of the airships that pursued the super mutant army, in the same zeppelin as paladin Latham. He told the Brotherhood Elders that storms would be the end of the air convoy, but they didn't listen to him. The airship crashed near the place known as Osceolla.
In 2197, Roshambo is a crazy old man who hides and does funny things with his fingers and urinates in other people's Nuka Cola. He is the sort of man mothers warn their sons about.
Relationships
He apparently still occasionally meets with Latham, and is somewhat loyal to him, despite being mad.
Interactions with the player character
When Latham is defeated, Roshambo becomes hostile to the warrior and can be killed or left to live on with his madness.
Appearances
Roshambo only appears in Fallout Tactics.
Behind the scenes
Roshambo was named after an ex-administrator of No Mutants Allowed, also known as The Roshambo Warrior and Rosh, who was vocal in his criticism about Fallout Tactics during the game's production.
"Roshambo" is also another name for the popular game rock-paper-scissors. This is referenced in his description in which he is described doing 'odd things with his hands'. It is also used in street terms to describe another game in which people kick each other in the nether regions, and the last man standing wins.
