Sierra Petrovita is a Nuka-Cola obsessive who lives in Girdershade in 2277. Ten years later, she can be found at the Nuka-World amusement park near the Commonwealth.

Background[]

Sierra is completely obsessed with Nuka-Cola and everything related to it. The causes of her obsession are unknown. What is known is that Petrovita is addicted to Nuka-Cola and has been drinking the beverage in copious amounts for years. Her obsession started at the age of sixteen,[1] and over the next ten years she threw away her parents' fortune on acquiring bottles of Nuka-Cola and its merchandise from merchants, travelers, and towns throughout the wasteland. She is largely incapable of holding a conversation without trying to steer the subject towards the soft drink. Her obsession would have likely killed her a long time ago, but it seems her beauty attracts men willing to risk life and limb to protect her. One such man is Ronald Laren, sharing Girdershade with her in 2277. Unfortunately for him, men are the last thing on Sierra's mind — unless they're bringing gifts in the form of Nuka-Cola Quantums.[Non-game 1]

Ronald helped her acquire some Nuka-Cola artifacts for her hoard and/or museum,[2][3] and has even joined Petrovita's Nuka-Cola Fan Club as its first (and only) member.[4] President, Recording Secretary, Treasurer, and ten-time winner of the annual Nuka-Cola Fan Club Collection Award[1] Petrovita was delighted to have someone to share her obsession with, unaware of Laren's feelings for her.[5] To her, he's simply a friend[6] who keeps her safe from raiders.[7]

Sierra managed to survive the treacherous Capital Wasteland and even expand her Nuka-Cola hoard-slash-museum. By 2287, her obsession led her to the derelict Nuka-World amusement park, after having traveled hundreds of miles to track down more artifacts for her collection.[8] The ultimate goal is to win an ancient, forgotten contest: Find ten hidden Cappys in the park and meet Bradberton in person. He must be long dead, of course, but what matters to Sierra is becoming the greatest Nuka fan in the world... And acquiring the original Nuka-Cola formula.[9]

She would prefer not to get ventilated by raiders who claimed the park. They tolerate Sierra's presence as long as she keeps to the market, but her constant attempts to sneak out and explore are getting on their nerves.[10]

Daily schedule[]

In Fallout 3, Sierra stays in her house, drinking Nuka-Cola. In the Fallout 4 add-on Nuka-World, she can be found near Bradberton's office in Nuka-Town USA.

  • The raiders who control the amusement park tolerate Sierra's presence, telling her to stay in the market.[10]
  • In Fallout Shelter, it is possible to find an NPC with a randomly generated appearance bearing Sierra's name in random encounters in the wasteland.
  • She pronounces her surname differently in Fallout 3 and Nuka-World. Voice actress Jan Johns confirmed that this was a mistake.[Non-game 2]

Sometimes, she may run for cover at another house in Girdershade and can be found there, rather than fleeing town. [verified]

    Sierra Petrovita: "I have one of the... no, THE best Nuka-Cola collection in the Capital Wasteland. Heck, I've won the Nuka-Cola Fan Club Collection Award for the last ten years in a row!"
    (Sierra Petrovita's dialogue)
  2. The Lone Wanderer: "What kind of stuff do you collect, exactly?"
    Sierra Petrovita: "Well, look around you! Toys, banners, stools... anything I can get my hands on really. My pride and joy is my perfect Nuka-Cola Machine. It's barely even scratched! Actually, I have to give credit to Ronald for donating some of it."
    (Sierra Petrovita's dialogue)
  3. The Sole Survivor: "You run a Nuka-Cola Museum?"
    Sierra Petrovita: "Absolutely! I've spent years collecting all the Nuka-Cola merchandise I could find. It's all on display at my home in a settlement called Girdershade. I give tours to anyone who stops by. And I can promise you this - you won't find another collection like mine in the Capital Wasteland, the Commonwealth, or any place else! Well, I'd stay and chat some more, but I've got to get back to my search."

  4. The Lone Wanderer: "Wait a minute. How many members are in your club?"
    Sierra Petrovita: "Well... only two right now. Me and Ronald. But membership is open to the public! You can join if you like!"

  5. 5.0 5.1 The Lone Wanderer: "There's a Nuka-Cola Fan Club?"
    Sierra Petrovita: "Yep, I'm the President, the Recording Secretary and the Treasurer. Once a year, we gather here in Girdershade to have a cook off using Nuka-Cola in the recipe. Last year I won with my "Poached Roach in Nuka-Sauce". Delicious!"
    (Sierra Petrovita's dialogue)
  6. The Lone Wanderer: "Who's Ronald?"
    Sierra Petrovita: "Ronald? Oh! I'm sorry, I figured you met him already. He usually chats with people who enter Girdershade. He's my neighbor and my protector as he calls it. Imagine if some nasty Raider wanted to take my stuff... he'd show them a thing or two! He's such a sweetie, you should talk to him!"
    (Sierra Petrovita's dialogue)
  7. The Lone Wanderer: "Tell me more about this Ronald guy."
    Sierra Petrovita: "He's a darling. Always watching out for me, and more importantly keeping the collection safe! Like once, there was these Raiders that came by. There were three of them and their leader was named like Lug-Nut or something..."
    The Lone Wanderer: "Um... Sierra..."
    Sierra Petrovita: "... so they like kicked in Ronald's door and he was like "BLAM" with his gun and one of them got all splattered. Then the other one tried to like hit him all in his head with some club and Ronald was so cool how he dodged it and shot the guy in the face. Then the Lug-Nut guy was in Ronald's face with the "I'll kick your ass" stuff and Ronald was like "Hell no..." and he punched the..."
    The Lone Wanderer: "Sierra! Please. I get it. He's tough."
    Sierra Petrovita: "Oh. Sorry! I get carried away sometimes. Well, you should definitely talk to Ronald. I bet he'd like to meet you. He's such a sweetheart."

  8. Sierra Petrovita: "Nuka-World! I've always dreamed of coming here, and now I've finally made it. This place is amazing, don't you think?"

  9. The Sole Survivor: "Bradberton... I remember that name. He was the guy who invented Nuka-Cola, right?"
    Sierra Petrovita: "Exactly! Wow, not a lot of people know that. At least not anymore. So to win the contest, you had to find ten images of Cappy, the Nuka-Cola mascot, hidden throughout the park. Each image has part of a code or something, and only these special glasses can reveal it. Now, I know what you're thinking. Bradberton's long gone, who cares about the contest anymore? Well I'm betting that somewhere in his office is the Original Nuka-Cola Formula! That formula was one of the great mysteries of the soft drink world, and it would be the crown jewel of my collection. If you can help me get it, I promise it'll be worth your while."
    (Sierra Petrovita's dialogue)
  10. 10.0 10.1 Sierra Petrovita: "You haven't seen anything that's, um, out of the ordinary around here, have you? Maybe something hidden? Shaped like a bottlecap?"
    Raider: "I thought we told you to keep your ass in the market. If you're looking for something, you can find it there like everyone else."
    Sierra Petrovita: "I'm not here for the market! I didn't travel hundreds of miles to go shopping."
    Raider: "I don't suppose you came here for a bullet in the brain either, so if you want to live, I suggest you stay where you belong."
    Sierra Petrovita: "Oh, you guys are real friendly, aren't you?"

  1. 1.0 1.1 Fallout 3 Official Game Guide Game of the Year Edition p.97: "Sierra Petrovita
    Sierra is a beautiful, 26-year-old, blonde who has no regard for anything but finding and consuming Nuka-Cola. She is absolutely fanatical about the blue drink and has been subsisting on the stuff for years. She has spent every Bottle Cap her parents left acquiring the drink from merchants, travelers, and towns spread throughout the Wasteland. Even though her looks are a desirable target for men, her personality leaves much to be desired. She is so oddly fascinated by Nuka-Cola that she will constantly shift conversations to speak about it and cares little for anything else. This is the subject of much anguish for the only other inhabitant of Girdershade."
