Setting[]

Lore[]

Topic Text
Fallout Season 1 Amazon Great War
The Great War
Global thermonuclear war both began and ended in the span of about two hours on Saturday, October 23, 2077. It’s unclear who fired first, but it was the culmination of the decade-long Sino-American War between the United States and China. Billions died, world governments and economies collapsed into non-existence, and the climate was ravaged leading to permanent changes to the global ecosystem.
Fallout Season 1 Amazon Vault-Tec
Vault-Tec
Vault-Tec was a nuclear defense corporation focused on revolutionizing safety for an uncertain future. The company successfully won the federal contracts to create a national network of large nuclear fallout bunkers, which they called Vaults.
Fallout Season 1 Amazon Nuka-Cola
Nuka-Cola
The Nuka-Cola Corporation was the largest beverage company in the United States prior to the Great War. Their flagship product was Nuka-Cola, fortified with vitamins and 120% of the daily recommended amount of sugar! Nuka-Cola quickly became an American icon and one of the most recognizable drinks in the world. The company even opened their own themed amusement park called Nuka-World!
Fallout Season 1 Amazon Brotherhood of Steel
The Brotherhood of Steel
Founded after the Great War, the Brotherhood of Steel is a paramilitary organization with chapters operating across the Wasteland. Their focus is to seek out and preserve advanced technology, ensuring it does not fall into the wrong hands. The Brotherhood has a regimented hierarchy, with each caste serving a dedicated purpose in the organization.
Fallout Season 1 Amazon Raiders
Raiders
While the Great War was truly devastating, humanity survived. Some live inside the Vaults. And some built new societies and governments across the Wasteland. But no matter how much has changed in the world, human nature stays the same. There are those out there whose only goal in life is to take what others have, and to cause as much harm as possible while taking. Most folks call these miscreants “raiders.”
Fallout Season 1 Amazon Caps
Caps
Post-War America had no standard currency upon which to build its economy and society, until merchants in New California started using the bottle cap — mostly Nuka-Cola caps — as currency. They realized the technology to create and paint the caps had mostly been lost to the Great War, which meant they had a finite supply and were nearly impossible to counterfeit. These traits made them an ideal candidate, and they were rapidly adopted as the standard currency of the wasteland.

Tech[]

Topic Text
Fallout Season 1 Amazon Pip-Boy
Pip-Boy
The Pip-Boy is a wearable personal computer developed by RobCo Industries prior to the Great War. The “Pip” in Pip-Boy stands for Personal Information Processor, and they were standard issue equipment for all residents of Vault-Tec Vaults. Pip-Boys can sometimes be found outside of Vaults, but due to their handy ability to store and transfer large amounts of information and their built-in geiger counter, those who have them rarely part with them willingly.
Fallout Season 1 Amazon Power Armor
Power Armor
If you want to feel like you can take on the world all by yourself, climb into a suit of power armor! This nuclear-powered combat infantry armor was developed by West Tek, and the first T-45 models were deployed to the frontlines of the Sino-American War in 2067. As the Sino-American War escalated, West Tek developed more advanced models like the T-51 and T-60, which helped America gain a foothold in the War. Now, over 200 years after the Great War, power armor is rare. Most of the remaining suits are in the possession of powerful organizations like the Brotherhood of Steel and the Enclave.
Fallout Season 1 Amazon Vaults
Vaults
A Vault-Tec Vault is a vast wonderful place, not made by God almighty but by the working man. A veritable Camelot of the nuclear age! Residents are safe underground behind three-foot thick lead casing — strong enough to keep out the rads and the reds! And best of all, each underground burg comes with all the modern amenities you come to expect from our rip-roaring Republic. No matter what comes our way, America will be ready.
Fallout Season 1 Amazon Stimpaks
Stimpaks
Stimpaks are one of the great marvels of pre-War science. These stimulation delivery packages, commonly called Stimpaks or Stims for short, are pre-dosed syringes loaded with a cocktail of stimulants and healing agents. Injecting yourself with one of these miracles significantly boosts your body’s natural healing abilities, often leading to a near instantaneous mending of wounds.
Fallout Season 1 Amazon RadAway
RadAway
If you find yourself out in the Wasteland, you’re probably going to get exposed to radiation. Purified water is hard to come by and most food sources are chock full of rads. That’s where RadAway comes in! This concoction bonds with radioactive particles in your body and purges them from your system. The process isn’t pleasant, or pretty, but it beats becoming a ghoul — or worse.
Fallout Season 1 Amazon Rad-X
Rad-X
If you’re not keen to go through the process of purging rads from your system using RadAway, you should take preventative measures. If you can’t find a good radiation-resistant hazmat suit or set of power armor, Rad-X can do the trick. These pills amplify your body’s natural radiation resistance, so taking some prior to exposure can often keep your system relatively rad free!

Notes[]

  • On release, the picture for the "Vaults" tab showed the door of Vault 32, as seen below. This was soon changed to be that of Vault 33.
  • CX404's tab's background image shows the flooded ruins from "The Head," but the exit sign reads Lankershim Boulevard instead of Hollywood Boulevard as it does in the show. Both of these are real-life streets in Hollywood, Los Angeles, but Lankershim Boulevard is in North Hollywood and Hollywood Boulevard is in South Hollywood. Both exit signs label the exit as Exit 12A, which is a real world exit ramp in Hollywood that connects U.S. Route 101 to Lankershim Boulevard.

Transcript changes[]

  • On first release, the transcripts for Lucy and Steph listed them as belonging to Vault 33's "Young Piker's Association." This was later corrected to read "Young Pipefitter's Association," as seen in the show.
  • Sometime following Season 1's release, Steph's description was changed, removing the reference about Steph being native to Vault 33 as well as to Bert comng from Vault 32, and adding the year of their marriage. The original transcript is below.
Transcript

A native resident of Vault 33, Steph is Lucy’s best friend. She is married to Bert, a breeder from Vault 32 who was traded for some of Vault 33’s agricultural and mechanical resources. They are currently expecting their first child, but that doesn’t stop Steph from taking part in the Young Pipefitter’s Association or any of her other Vault duties.
