There's no way they'd agree to letting Ghouls live here. We all came here to get away from things like Ghouls, and disease, and all that ugliness.

Susan Lancaster is a former slaver from Paradise Falls who now lives in Tenpenny Tower as its resident "courtesan" in the year 2277.

Background[]

For some time, Susan was a member of the Paradise Falls slavers.[1] For reasons unknown, she left the organization on bad terms, slitting the throat of one of their members before her departure.[2] By 2277, she had gained residence at Tenpenny Tower, where she made a living as a high-class prostitute, or "escort" as the Tower's residents prefer.

Susan regularly services many of the tower's male residents, including Doctor Banfield, Herbert Dashwood, and Allistair Tenpenny himself. She maintains a rivalry with local gossip Millicent Wellington, who disapproves of her promiscuity, and is secretly carrying out an affair with her husband Edgar. When not with her customers, she spends her free time shopping or drinking at the Federalist Lounge, taking her meals at the Café Beau Monde.[Non-game 1]

Daily schedule[]

Susan can be found in a different bed every night of the week between 10 PM and midnight, always wearing sexy sleepwear. On Monday, she's in Wellington's bed, she is with Banfield both Tuesday and Thursday night, Hawthorne on Wednesday, Mr. Cheng on Friday, while Sunday nights are spent with Dashwood. Even after moving in with Mister Burke, she continues her weekly rounds and never gets around to sharing a bed with him. She has sexual relations with every man in Tenpenny Tower, except Anthony Ling, who is implied to be homosexual, thus having no use for her "services."

    Grouse: "Susan Lancaster lives at Tenpenny Tower. She was one of us. Let's just say she never paid the exit price."
    (Grouse's dialogue)
  2. Grouse: "Susan thought she could just up and leave, huh? We showed her different, didn't we? She'll think twice about slitting one of our throats now that she's collared! We'll need to come up with something extra special for her. Here's another collar. You're a welcome addition to our little operation here."

    "Susan Lancaster:
    Susan is the Tenpenny Tower escort. Doctor Banfield is with her each Tuesday and Thursday, Herbert Dashwood is with her every Sunday, and every Saturday she's with Allistair Tenpenny himself. Often Susan can be found drinking in the Federalist Lounge, shopping, or grabbing something to eat in the Cafe Beau Monde. On Susan's desk is a love letter from a certain husband whose wife might not take too kindly to the realization that her husband is cheating on her."
