West Everett Estates is a suburb made up of a few single-family homes. The homes are of a similar design to [[The House of Tomorrow]] in [[Sanctuary Hills]], but several homes were still under construction before the [[Great War]].<ref>[[Fallout 4 Vault Dweller's Survival Guide]] p. 292: ''"This once-picturesque suburban community is similar to Sanctuary Hills. Currently, it could best be described now as a “transitional” neighborhood. Recently, a Raider gang was overrun by Super Mutants under the leadership of “Hammer.” They are clustered to the south. Be sure to thoroughly inspect the area for a safe (Master) and steamer trunk (Expert), Lance’s terminal (Advanced), and a nearby safe (Advanced). Enter the backyard bunker to locate Wayne’s terminal, another Quantum, and one more trunk."''</ref> It was home to [[Wayne Tournquist]] and his family, [[Ron Cobb]], and brothers [[Lance Ames|Lance]] and [[Leon Ames]], among others.

The [[Great War]] was not the end for its occupants, as some of the original residents survived into the next year. This included [[Ron Cobb]], the Ames family ([[Leon Ames|Leon]], [[Lance Ames|Lance]], [[Janet Ames|Janet]] and their children) and the Tournquist family, [[Wayne Tournquist|Wayne]], [[Michael Tournquist|Michael]] and [[David Tournquist|David]].
Shortly before the war, Wayne built a bomb shelter in his backyard to protect his family. When the bombs dropped, he and his children survived inside, but his wife [[Bonnie Tournquist|Bonnie]] was left stranded at her [[Mass Bay Medical Center|workplace]] in Boston. In the weeks afterward, Wayne set up an [[Separated family radio signal|automated radio broadcast]] in an attempt to contact her.
 
   
  +
Cobb was a member of the construction crew when the radiation blanketed the vicinity. While the other workers died, he [[Mutations and their causes|mutated]], becoming a [[ghoul]]. The Tournquists, by fortunate circumstance and lots of preparation and hard work, managed to get advance warning and retreat back home to their [[Backyard bunker|hidden shelter]], while the Ames was away at the time, returning from a family vacation in [[Eastern Commonwealth|New York]].
By January of 2078, Wayne was forced to scavenge from his neighbors' homes for supplies. On one outing, he was accosted by Ron, who had turned into a [[ghoul]]. Ron attempted to kill him but was shot by Lance and Leon, who had just returned after finding themselves stranded in [[Connecticut]]. Soon afterward, the three set about fortifying the neighborhood.
 
   
  +
Life in the shelter was a combination of fear and sorrow. All the Tournquists could do was listen to the radio and gunfire, which was outside their shelter for three days straight.<ref name="Hack">[[West Everett Estates terminal entries#Made it home|West Everett Estates terminal entries; Wayne's terminal, Made it home]]</ref> Sometime between October 26 and November 9, Wayne tried to contact his wife [[Bonnie Tournquist|Bonnie]] at the [[Mass Bay Medical Center]]. Unbeknownst to him, [[Separated family radio signal|the radio message]] partially made it through, although another nurse heard the message. She left a holotape with her friend [[Marcie]] and tried to sneak out to get home, but did not make it through the fighting in the city.<ref name="BonnieHolo">[[Bonnie's holotape]]</ref> Unable to leave the children alone, he could not bring himself to go look for her.<ref>[[West Everett Estates terminal entries#Bonnie|West Everett Estates terminal entries; Wayne's terminal, Bonnie]]</ref>
Two months later, Lance and Leon encountered a group of armed men on a scouting run, including several of Leon's former mob associates. Despite Lance's attempts at discretion, Leon divulged a great deal of information to the strangers. Soon after, the strangers attacked the settlement and took over, Lance was killed trying to resist and Leon surrendered to the raiders. In the chaos, Wayne and his children fled.
 
   
  +
Wayne finally emerged from the shelter the night of January 27, [[Timeline#2078|2078]]. Their plan to tap into the main from the water tower worked, but the piping took more duct tape than expected and was badly leaking. They did not have any more in the house, so he tried to sneak over to the Cobbs' house across the street. Wayne figured that Ron Cobb would have duct tape because of his occupation in construction. To Wayne's surprise, the cold barrel of a gun was pushed up against the back of his head when he entered. Ron told Wayne to turn around slowly, and he was shocked at the level of radiation poisoning he had. Wayne begged him to stop, but he put the gun in his mouth and cocked back the hammer. He heard the gunshot, but when Wayne opened his eyes, Ron was falling to the ground, and Wayne spotted [[Lance Ames]] from down the street upon Wayne's roof. He saw the whole thing and saved Wayne's life. The Ames had just returned after finding themselves stranded in [[New England Commonwealth|Connecticut]].<ref>[[West Everett Estates terminal entries#The neighbors|West Everett Estates terminal entries; Wayne's terminal, The neighbors]]</ref>
When the [[Sole Survivor]] arrives at West Everett Estates a group of fierce [[Institute super mutant|super mutants]] led by [[Hammer (super mutant)|Hammer]] have taken control of the town. The corpses of the raiders that previously controlled the town are littered throughout the settlement.

The strangers, in reality, a group of raiders, later attacked the settlement. Lance was killed while on watch duty, and the raiders overran the estates.

West Everett, another town swallowed up by the super mutants.Deacon

The West Everett Estates is a location in the Commonwealth in 2287, located north from downtown Boston across the Charles River.

Background

This suburb of Malden was under construction when the bombs fell,[1] built to be a picturesque suburban community similar to Sanctuary Hills in its construction with homes of tomorrow.[2] Already partially completed, the development was occupied for at least a year. On October 23, 2077, the radiation from the nuclear detonations killed all but one of the construction workers where they were.[3]

The Great War was not the end for its occupants, as some of the original residents survived into the next year. This included Ron Cobb, the Ames family (Leon, Lance, Janet and their children) and the Tournquist family, Wayne, Michael and David.

Cobb was a member of the construction crew when the radiation blanketed the vicinity. While the other workers died, he mutated, becoming a ghoul. The Tournquists, by fortunate circumstance and lots of preparation and hard work, managed to get advance warning and retreat back home to their hidden shelter, while the Ames was away at the time, returning from a family vacation in New York.

Life in the shelter was a combination of fear and sorrow. All the Tournquists could do was listen to the radio and gunfire, which was outside their shelter for three days straight.[4] Sometime between October 26 and November 9, Wayne tried to contact his wife Bonnie at the Mass Bay Medical Center. Unbeknownst to him, the radio message partially made it through, although another nurse heard the message. She left a holotape with her friend Marcie and tried to sneak out to get home, but did not make it through the fighting in the city.[5] Unable to leave the children alone, he could not bring himself to go look for her.[6]

Wayne finally emerged from the shelter the night of January 27, 2078. Their plan to tap into the main from the water tower worked, but the piping took more duct tape than expected and was badly leaking. They did not have any more in the house, so he tried to sneak over to the Cobbs' house across the street. Wayne figured that Ron Cobb would have duct tape because of his occupation in construction. To Wayne's surprise, the cold barrel of a gun was pushed up against the back of his head when he entered. Ron told Wayne to turn around slowly, and he was shocked at the level of radiation poisoning he had. Wayne begged him to stop, but he put the gun in his mouth and cocked back the hammer. He heard the gunshot, but when Wayne opened his eyes, Ron was falling to the ground, and Wayne spotted Lance Ames from down the street upon Wayne's roof. He saw the whole thing and saved Wayne's life. The Ames had just returned after finding themselves stranded in Connecticut.[7]

For the next three months, the Tournquists and Ames worked together to barricade and fortify the neighborhood.[8] To get the biggest part done in a night, together with Wayne, Lance and Leon Ames stole a couple of trucks from the Irish Pride Industries shipyard nearby. Lance had him pull them around to the edges of the yards to start the wall. Wayne, however, flipped his and almost crushed his house. It was another month before they had the rest of the wall ready. They kept watch in shifts, and the kids all enjoyed getting to come outside.[9]

Two months later, Lance and Leon encountered a group of armed men on a scouting run, including several of Leon's former mob associates. Despite Lance's attempts at discretion, Leon divulged a great deal of information to the strangers. They let the pair go, but followed them home.[10]

The strangers, in reality, a group of raiders, later attacked the settlement. Lance was killed while on watch duty, and the raiders overran the estates. Leon surrendered to the raiders, but not before urinating in his pants. They later planned to use him as a shield for when they went back into the city.[11] In the commotion, Wayne took his children and fled under fire.[12]

At some point in the following years, the settlement was overrun by a super mutant band led by Hammer. Hoping to use the location as a position to raid more, Hammer made a trade offer via holotape to Fist of more weapons for more mutants.

Layout

There are two entrances to the compound in the northeast and southeast corners. Several of the buildings are destroyed, though most are accessible ruins. There are several radioactive barrels right next to the fast travel spawn point. Raider corpses are sprawled out over the area, with a number of them concentrated near the cooking station in the center of the camp. What used to be Lance Ames' house is located just outside the fortifications in the northeast corner, and what used to be Wayne Tournquist's house is by the water tower to the southwest. This is where the super mutant leader Hammer resides. The entrance to the Tournquist backyard bunker is in the shed adjoining the house. It contains an armor workbench and is the source of the separated family radio signal created by Wayne.
