Two Sun, formerly known as Tucson, is a city located in Arizona.
Background[]
Two Sun is the remains of the pre-War city of Tucson, Arizona. Raul Tejada claims to have lived there for 75 years after moving from a Petró-Chico refinery on his journey away from Mexico City.[1] As Caesar's Legion pacified the rest of Arizona, the town also fell under their rule.[2]
Two Sun is also the home of the University of Arizona where the Legion repurposed most of the leftover football equipment into armor.[Non-game 1]
Notes[]
- When Raul mentions that the city was originally named Tucson, what is actually typed in the subtitles is "Tuscon." This typo is repeated at least three times during his conversation with the player character.
- Raul is insistent about the pronunciation and spelling of the city's name, as he is one of the only people who know what it originally was.
Appearances[]
Two Sun is mentioned only in Fallout: New Vegas.
Behind the scenes[]
Two Sun is based on the real world location of Tucson, Arizona.

- ↑ The Courier: "So what did you do?"
Raul Tejada: "I left Mexico City behind. I made my way out to the Gulf Coast, eventually, I found an old Petro-Chico refinery nobody had claimed. I stayed there for a little while, and I thought a lot about my life. I thought about the guns I'd lived by and what they'd gotten me. I decided my guns hadn't gotten me anything, and it was time to give it up. I took off that old vaquero outfit and put on a Petro-Chico jumpsuit. The name tag said "Miguel," so I started using the name myself. Eventually, I made it to Arizona... but that's another story, boss."
The Courier: "Why aren't you still there, then?"
Raul Tejada: "Getting there, boss. I'd been in Tuscon - the locals can call it Two-Sun all they want, but it's Tuscon, dammit - about 75 years when she showed up. Prettiest thing you ever saw, boss. Maybe it was just a trick of my senile brain, but I swear she looked just like my Rafaela. Her name was Claudia. She ended up taking work at one of the brothels in town. I never went to her, of course - how could I? But I looked after her in my own way."
(Raul Tejada's dialogue) - ↑ The Courier: "What happened with her?"
Raul Tejada: "This was a long time ago. Before Caesar's Legion pacified Arizona and brought the raider tribes to heel. A tribe came into Tuscon one day - more a gang, really. Dirty Dave and his six brothers. They were looking for bullets, and I sold some to them. I figured if I did that, they'd leave town before they tore it up too much."

Joshua Sawyer: "'Where did the Legion find all the football equipment?' From the University of Arizona. I don't know if that's actually explicitly stated anywhere, but yes, they got it from... uh... they got it from the University of Arizona."
