Place 4: Enclave
- Known from: Fallout 2, 3, New Vegas, Shelter, 76, Amazon series
The Enclave is another deeply sinister faction. Its origins lie in the time before the Great War. The Enclave emerged from the former US government and members of a kind of “Deep State” and sees itself as their successor.
In truth, it is a fascist faction that wants to restore the status quo from before the war. This is implemented rigorously: Anyone in the Wasteland who is not part of the Enclave is considered a mutant and is eliminated.
This leads to genocide, exterminating all people who are not “pure” enough. The Enclave is also dangerous because of its good organization and equipment: It divides itself into military, science, and civilian sectors.
Particularly the military forces are dangerous, as they have access to powerful weapons and numerous power armors thanks to pre-war technology. Biological weapons like the FEV Curling-13 virus, which is used against mutants, are also devastating. Overall, the Enclave is one of the malign and most dangerous factions in the Wasteland.
