Welcome to Nukapedia's portal dedicated to Fallout! Fallout: A Post Nuclear Role Playing Game is a post-apocalyptic computer role-playing game that was developed and published by Interplay in 1997 and is the first game in the Fallout series. The game takes place in the year 2161 on the West Coast of what used to be the United States, particularly in California. |

The Mariposa super mutants are a variety of super mutant common on the West Coast and in the Midwest that originated from the Super mutant Military Base in California. While some of them can be rather stupid, in general they are more intelligent and civilized than their distant super mutant cousins.
Super mutants were first created on the West Coast by Richard Grey, also known as "The Master". The great majority of super mutants produced by the Master and later his Lieutenant in Mariposa's Vats were big, dumb brutes. Physically, they were vastly superior to humans, but they had the intelligence of children. Which factor exactly determines the results of a "dipping" is still uncertain; prevalent theories are radiation damage and inoculation of the subjects. As a rule of thumb, the cleaner the subject, the better. |

Fallout world |

The Fallout world is not quite our own. It is an alternate reality which diverged from ours at some point after the second World War.
The base concept for the setting is the World of Tomorrow as imagined in the Golden Age of Science Fiction. This means that before the Great War, the Fallout world was more or less what the people of the 1940s and 1950s thought things would be like in 2077. |
