“We never give up hope. We never will, even though most live by the gun these days. And we are concerned with the Children of the Cathedral...”
Nicole is the head of the Followers of the Apocalypse by 2161.
Background[]
Nicole is described as the intelligent and good hearted leader of the Followers.[2] Her vision is to restore peace to the world non-violently.[3][4][5] Her parents were killed by marauders on the way from the Glow to the Boneyard, which inspired the foundation of the humanitarian group.[6][7]
Nicole distrusts the Children of the Cathedral, who she believes are not genuine in their wishes to help the people of the wasteland.[8][9][10] Due to this distrust, Nicole has assigned fellow member Laura to serve as a spy, working inside the Cathedral.

Query | Response |
Morpheus | Morpheus is the leader of the Children of the Cathedral. He is evil, and that fact must be exposed. |
Nicole | There's not much to tell. |
Laura | Laura is one of our insiders within the Cathedral. She's extremely loyal to our cause. |
Jake | Jake is second in command. |
Library | In here, you'll find historical texts and philosophical texts...almost anything. Feel free to look around. |
God | The Children of the Cathedral worship him. They say he only wants to heal humanity, but that's a lie. |
Master | I've heard very little about him. |
Nightkin | They're the personal servants of Morpheus. They're huge, hulking creatures. Ugh! |
Cathedral | You've probably seen their hospitals around. They preach peace, but there is something wrong with them. We need to find out what. |
Adytum | It's a small settlement. You'll find it to the west in the Boneyard. |
Angel's, Angels, Boneyard | Before the Great War, this was a huge, thriving city. My mother told stories, but there's hardly anything left now. Just ruins and death. |
Followers | Our history is in the last case, top shelf. |
War | Everything was burned, everything destroyed. We try to teach people peace, so that it will never happen again. |
Hub | That's the trading city to the north. We're trying to set up a table there. |

- ↑ Fallout Official Survival Guide p.103: "Nicole: Spiritual Leader of the Followers: Nicole is head of the Followers of the Apocalypse, a group of pacifists who, despite their beliefs, are enemies of the Children of the Cathedral. She is a serene and spiritual person who tends to ramble a bit, but who believes in her group, and in their plan to make the world a better place with their message of peace and nonviolence. She may hold a philosophy of nonviolence, but Nicole hates the Children of the Cathedral, whom she believes to be evil. She has seen Morpheus and the Nightkin, and believes the hospitals and good works are a sham-a cover for something dark and malevolent. She is also a good source of information about things in the LA area."
- ↑ Fallout Official Survival Guide p.85: "The Angel's Boneyard/The Cathedral Characters Encountered, Nicole: She is the leader of the Followers of the Apocalypse. Strong- willed, honorable, and spiritual-minded, she believes that she and her followers will change the world. She hates the Children of the Cathedral, and will help the player fight them."
