“	I used to envy 'em that. I wanted a life of adventure, but I stayed here and took over as mayor when my dad died. Been running this place and building NCR ever since. Guess it turned out to be a pretty big life after all.	”
—Tandi in 2241

Tandi (born in 2145) is the leader of Shady Sands. In 2161, she still resides in the same town, unaware of her future role in society. Destined to be a founder and second president of the New California Republic, she would go on to become one of the most influential people in the entire post-War world.

Background编辑

Early days编辑

She is the daughter of Aradesh, and is destined to one day replace her father as the town's leader. Currently, she is bored stiff with the place, a little in awe of people who've seen something of the outside world and a bit naïve. She's a tomboy with a sharp mind and quick wit, a free spirit who is not afraid to speak her mind.^[1]

Tandi was one of the most important people of the West Coast in the 23rd century. From her early years, she displayed an uncommon strength of character and liveliness, complementing her good looks (six feet tall with raven black hair and a dark complexion). In 2161, at the age of sixteen, she met the Vault Dweller, a figure who would inspire her for years to come with their charisma and skill, exemplified by ridding Shady Sands of the radscorpion plague. The impression was only reinforced when Tandi was kidnapped by the Khans during their raid and the Vault Dweller rescued her from the raiders.

Inheritance编辑

Tandi helped her father expand Shady Sands, laying the foundations for the New California Republic. When her father disappeared searching for Vault 13, she rose to power, and soon the town grew substantially as she opened trade routes with Junktown and the Hub. This was something her father had been reluctant to do, despite the obvious advantages. With a strong economy and Tandi's determined guidance, Shady Sands soon dominated the brahmin trade and eventually, the first states of the NCR emerged, slowly merging into a standalone political entity with help from the Brotherhood of Steel, which remained out of the power structure for the time being.

Tandi succeeded her father as the President of the Republic and from then on ruled the NCR alongside the congress. She was focused on expanding the state, to bring peace and stability to the wastes. Her ideals long since replaced by pragmatism, she was not above forging a deal with New Reno to bully Vault City into joining the NCR and supplying it with their superior medical technology. Closing on 100 years of age in 2241, Tandi remained acting president, still retaining her wit and youthful fire. Dementia and other ailments of the elderly seemingly failed to sink their hooks into her.

President Tandi died in 2248 at the age of 103, after a 52-year presidency. She was succeeded by her vice president, Joanna Tibbett.^[2] Her legacy lived on, however, and she remains the most popular NCR president to date.

Family编辑

Tandi's father is Aradesh, the leader of Shady Sands. Her mother's name is unknown. Seth describes her as "my girl" before correcting himself in her rescue quest, showing him to be a former love interest. She had a son, Hoss, although she wasn't particularly proud of him.

Tell me about编辑

Shady Sands编辑

Tandi's Fallout 1 Tell me abouts
Query	Response
Aradesh	Aradesh is my father. He's okay, as far as dads go.
Tandi	That's me. Who else did you think it was?
Razlo	Razlo's the old guy on the east side of town. He's a pretty good doctor, though, even if he is a fossil.
Seth	Seth's the captain of the guards. My father tried to set us up once, but he is not my type.
Raiders, Khans	Pretty bad bunch or so I've heard. My father knows more about them. He never tells me much about the outside world.
Well	That's where we get all our water. It's been here since before I was born.
Scorpions, Scorpion	I've actually seen one, even if it was from far away. They're nasty creatures, with claws and a big stinger. And their poison can be deadly if it isn't treated. You should talk to my dad, Aradesh, he knows more about them.
Claw	I heard a tale from a traveler up from the south. He said the Death Claw was a creature that killed people at night. He said no one can catch it, because it can disappear like smoke. Not that I believe it, of course.
Junktown	Junktown's a small city to the southwest. It's supposed to have pretty good trading, but my father won't even look into it. He says we need to stay 'protected'. Yeah, right. Caged is more like it.
Hub	The Hub is supposed to be a great city to the south. I've always wanted to see it, but I've never got the chance.
City	I don't know, but the guy who told me about it was really scared of it. He said that the undead walked the streets!
Garl	He leads the Khans. He is one of the most dangerous men that has ever set eyes on Shady Sands. He leads the raider clans with a heavy fist.
Anything else	I don't know. You might want to ask Seth or my father about it, though.
	Hmm...Doesn't ring a bell.
	Hm...nope. I never heard of it.

Khan base编辑

Tandi's tell-me-abouts regarding Khan members will be same as that of a Khan raider. This is likely due to a bug within the game making it treat her as if she is a khan member.

Alya	"She is an advisor. She plans the raids."

Gwen	"She is second in command."
Petrox	"He collects our supplies."
Tolya	"He is the cook."

Notes编辑

• Tandi is one of the longest living humans in the Fallout universe, being only surpassed biologically and chronologically by the dwellers of Vault 111 and Vault 112, Private Dobbs, Toshiro Kago, Robert House, the Sole Survivor, Conrad Kellogg, John-Caleb Bradberton and Jack Cabot and his family. Of these characters, Tandi is the only to have reached such an advanced age through natural means alone.
• When receiving the Stop the Radscorpions quest, it is revealed that Tandi is a former love interest of Seth, the village hunter, when he states "Thank Dharma you're here Wanderer. My girl... uh, Tandi, Aradesh's daughter has been kidnapped by raiders!"
  • Alternatively, you can find this out by asking Tandi about Seth. She will tell you her father tried to set her up with Seth, but he is "not her type."
• Tandi will remain in the Vault Dweller's party after being rescued until she is returned to Shady Sands. By avoiding Shady Sands after rescuing her, Tandi can serve as a fifth non-player character party member alongside Dogmeat, Ian, Tycho and Katja. However, Tandi is not really intended for use as a non-player character companion, and she cannot be given any form of combat commands or orders (not even "wait here"). Her inventory also cannot be manipulated (other than by pickpocketing), and she will wield the first weapon she draws for the rest of the game.
• An inflatable rubber sex doll named Tandi can be found in New Reno; another can be found in the building behind Sheriff Marcus in Broken Hills, and such a doll is one of three items Typhon, son of Set, requires before revealing a hidden treasure location.
• Tandi appears on the NCR $100 bill in Fallout: New Vegas (during loading screens; in game), with the Dayglow Incorporation Address on the back.
• It seems also that she promulgated a law that forbids violence against POWs, as stated by Lieutenant Boyd.
• In Fallout: New Vegas, she is mentioned in an NCR citizenship quiz, in which one question asks "Who was the most popular president in NCR history?"
• Tandi's name is spelled differently in the Vault Dweller's memoirs. He spells it "Tandy."
• "TANDI" appears as a possible terminal password in Fallout 4.
• In Van Buren, some characters say she was murdered. See Angela.^[3]
