The more time I spend talking to you, the less I'm spending watching for Raiders. How the hell did you get up here, anyway?

Stockholm is a sentry in Megaton in 2277.

Background[]

Stockholm is the guard for Megaton and watches the gate. He resides in the guard tower outside the city above the main gate.[Non-game 1][Non-game 2] After a successful hack attempt of Colin Moriarty's computer, it is revealed he holds a tab at Moriarty's Saloon of 8 caps.[1]

Interactions with the player character[]

Interactions overview[]

Interactions
Icon severed ear color
This character drops an ear upon death (Contract Killer).

Other interactions[]

When talked to on the balcony, Stockholm will complain that the more time he spends talking to the Lone Wanderer, the less time he spends watching for raiders, and wonders how the Lone Wanderer got up there at all.[2] This is the only interaction possible.

Inventory[]

Notes[]

  • Stockholm and the catwalk both have two iterations, hence the two Ref IDs. One is active when inside Megaton, and includes the bed and chair. The other, active when outside Megaton, does not have any furniture. Any items dropped on the catwalk or given to Stockholm in one iteration will not be available in the other.
  • Normally, the Lone Wanderer can never gain access to Stockholm's platform (which leads to the comment he makes on the method used to access the platform when spoken to). However, the platform can be reached through console commands on the PC version (specifically the tcl command), exploitation of the V.A.T.S. melee attack teleporting, or through some clever jumping.
  • Stockholm, along with Deputy Weld, can be killed by the Brotherhood of Steel during the unmarked quest Wastelander Water Request.

Appearances[]

Stockholm appears only in Fallout 3.

Behind the scenes[]

The Fallout 3 Official Game Guide states that his name is "Solomon."[Non-game 3] As the guide was written off of an earlier version of the game, it is possible that this was Stockholm's name, until it was changed at the last minute.

Bugs[]

  • PCPC Playstation 3Playstation 3Playstation 3 Like many Megaton residents, Stockholm can fall from his perch. If he is engaged in combat and his health is reduced to less than 10 HP, he will fall and die. Should he survive, his dialogue remains unchanged, even though he is now encountered on the ground. Stockholm's fall will also occasionally follow a path other than down if he is killed, catapulting his body and loot across Megaton. [verified]
  • Xbox 360Xbox 360 Occasionally, if the entire town of Megaton is hostile, entering a building and waiting will make Stockholm come into the building and attack. [verified]
  • PCPC Xbox 360Xbox 360 On rare occasions, when first leaving the vault and discovering Megaton for the first time, Stockholm will be on the ground outside the main Megaton doors. His dialogue is the same as it would be if speaking to him on his perch. [verified]

  1. 1.0 1.1 Fallout 3 Official Game Guide Game of the Year Edition p.99:
    "Stockholm:
    Stockholm is the Megaton gate guard and actually spends his time outside the city, manning the guard tower at the main gate. He is 25 and loves the sun on his back, but he isn't quite as happy with the slightly radioactive grit from dust storms in his mouth."
  2. Fallout 3 Official Game Guide Game of the Year Edition p.388:
    "8.03: Megaton (Lat 01/Long -06)"
    Megaton is an odd-looking, sprawling settlement, surrounded by thick, impenetrable walls. It features a sliding front gate guarded by a Sniper named Stockholm and a rusty robot named Deputy Weld. You can head in and out as you like, and it is wise to holster your weapon.
  3. Fallout 3 Official Game Guide Game of the Year Edition p.157:
    "The Protectron guarding the gate — Deputy Weld — is a friendly sort. Solomon the sniper sits in a nest above the gate too."
