麥多那市長(英文名:Mayor McDonough),单位名称M7-62,[3]是鑽石城的市长,也是2287年的秘密學院特工。
背景[]
麥多那无论在比喻和字面意义上都是一个比生活更重要的人物,他多年来一直经营着鑽石城,使它成为联邦繁荣的商业中心。实际上,这座城市的市长是學院的一名學院密探,他是一名合成人渗透者,负责监视联邦的事态发展,并编写有关该组织可能感兴趣的事项的报告。[4]他唯一的联络人是康拉德·克罗格,因为学院没有另一种方式来接收他的信息,而不在城市中引起骚动。[5]
人类麥多那是芳鄰鎮的领袖约翰·汉考克的兄弟,也是派翠克和瑪莎·麥多那的儿子。[2]他被汉考克描述为"标准的老大哥 - 自命清高、强势,喜欢把烂土豆塞进我的衬衫里,拍拍我的背。"[1]他在2282年之前被學院绑架并取代。[6][7]目的很简单:在联邦最大的聚落安插一名学院的特工。追求政治生涯的决定对汉考克来说是一个意外,但他并没有阻碍他哥哥的道路,至少在麥多那开始为2282年的选举竞选之前没有。[8]
他以人类的麥多那的口号竞选,承诺要把尸鬼从钻石城赶走。[9]他的计划得到了上层居民的支持,并最终为他赢得了市长的职位。他的反尸鬼法令立即颁布,麥多那的就职演说引发了尸鬼家庭的出走。汉考克试图抗议,但市长只是回答说,虽然他对尸鬼没有恶意,但他不能违背人民的意愿,微笑着,永远疏远了两兄弟。汉考克已经认不出和他一起长大的哥哥了。[6]
约翰离开了钻石城和他偏执的哥哥。他试图帮助那些被迫在废土的城市中生存的尸鬼的受害者,并将他们重新安置在芳鄰鎮。然而,他们中的大多数人无法适应这里的生活方式,最终消失了。约翰说,钻石城的居民"签署了"尸鬼家庭的死刑令。[10]与此同时,作为钻石城的市长,合成人一直在执行一项渗透城市和居民的任务,他们不知道他作为学院特工的真实本性。这位合成人市长努力向他的人民隐瞒他对科学界的秘密忠诚,尽管敏锐的记者派普·萊特已经嗅到了他的计划的一丝风声,并在一篇题为"合成人的真相"的新闻报道中公布了这一信息。派普因为市长是合成人这个耸人听闻的谣言而得罪了市长导致她被暂时禁止进入市区。[11]他的另一个问题是,他的反尸鬼言论正在失去动力,特别是在爬泥地的基础上。和平、繁荣的尸鬼聚落将不可避免地滋生出不认为尸鬼是怪物的人,并最终允许有人挑战麥多那的偏执政策,并将他赶下台。在他看来,学院应该考虑设计一种情况,使尸鬼"不那么友好"。[9]
麥多那自己的长期目标是在SRB内部转职,成为一名追猎者。他没有意识到他的合成人身体会与追猎者的生活方式不相容,他的处理者认为他的独立程度是一种太大的负担。此外,他的上司认为他是可以被牺牲的:如果他的合成人身份被曝光,他将被释放,估计只有两周的生存时间。[3]
人际关系[]
麥多那一直是商人和富裕的上层居民中受欢迎的市长,因为他强调保持钻石城的繁荣和安全,但由于他当选的情况以及他拒绝调查最近一连串据称由学院策划的绑架事件,这在社区内引发了大规模的偏执,他在底层居民中是一个矛盾的人物。

名言[]
登场[]
麥多那市長出现在辐射4和辐射:避难所Online。
幕后[]
- 在辐射4之前的辐射:避难所Online的加载画面上,声称除了尼克之外,城市里没有其他非人类,进一步表明市长被合成人取代了,而不是一直都是同一个。
- 麥多那这个角色的灵感来自现实生活中的波士顿市长詹姆斯·迈克尔·柯利,他在20世纪担任了四届市长。他在波士顿政界被认为是一个非常腐败的人物,但在工人阶级中仍然非常受欢迎。[Non-game 1]
- 派普与麥多那市长的互动与鲍勃·伍德沃德(Bob Woodward)和卡尔·伯恩斯坦(Carl Bernstein)对水门事件的报道有相似之处,水门事件最终导致理查德·尼克松总统辞职,后者以宣称“我不是骗子!”而闻名。这在麥多那市长“我不是合成人”的演讲中得到了进一步的暗示。
- 麥多那是首席设计师Emil Pagliarulo母亲的娘家姓。[Non-game 2]

- ↑ 1.0 1.1 The 獨存者: "You and McDonough knew each other as kids?"
John Hancock: "Oh yeah. Guy's my brother. Grew up together in a little shack on the waterfront. Guy was the standard big brother - entitled, punchy, liked to shove rotten tatoes down my shirt and slap my back. But I never thought he'd be capable of something like what they did to those Ghouls."
(John Hancock's dialogue) - ↑ 2.0 2.1 2.2 "I am not a synth" speech
- ↑ 3.0 3.1 Institute SRB terminal entries; SRB terminal, Infiltrator Unit: McDonough
- ↑ Justin Ayo: "If you're going to be in Diamond City anytime soon, I have a favor to ask of you. You might not be aware of it, but the city's mayor is a synth, an Institute plant. He monitors developments in the Commonwealth and compiles reports on matters of possible interest to us. Since you visit the surface more than anyone else down here, I figured you could pick up the latest report."
The Sole Survivor: "How do we do this without raising suspicion?"
Justin Ayo: "You'll meet with the mayor privately, away from prying eyes. The mayor will be waiting in his office. He'll give you the report, and then you'll bring it back to me. Remember, discretion is vital to our operations in Diamond City, so try to keep a low profile."
(Justin Ayo's dialogue) - ↑ The Sole Survivor: "I'm not a mailman. Send one of your robots."
Justin Ayo: "I can't send a Courser into Diamond City without starting a panic, and that's the last thing the mayor needs. Kellogg usually took care of this, but since he's dead, I have nobody left to ask. The mayor will be waiting in his office. He'll give you the report, and then you'll bring it back to me. Remember, discretion is vital to our operations in Diamond City, so try to keep a low profile."
(Justin Ayo's dialogue) - ↑ 6.0 6.1 The Sole Survivor: "How could they do something like that?"
John Hancock: "There'd always been a pretty big gulf between the folks living in the stands and folks down on the field. McDonough ran on it because he thought enough of those Upper Stands assholes would vote for him. Guess he was right. I remember storming into his office above the stands after the inauguration speech. He was just standing there, staring out the window, watching as the city turned on the Ghouls. He didn't even look at me, just said: "I did it, John. It's finally mine." Should have killed him right there, but I don't think it would have changed anything. Instead I pleaded with him, begged him to call it off. He said he couldn't. He had nothing against the Ghouls. He was just carrying out the will of the people. And he couldn't betray the voters. And then he smiled. That hideous, fucking mile-long smile. He never smiled like that when we were kids. I didn't even recognize him."
(John Hancock's dialogue) - ↑ The Sole Survivor: "What do you mean you didn't recognize him?"
John Hancock: "I don't know. Just didn't seem like the guy I grew up with. When I'd first heard the rumors he'd been swapped for a Synth, thinking back on that night, I thought it made a lot of sense. But now, I don't know. I don't think I buy it. I've seen him since then and there's no way they copied him that perfectly. Even got his tightass walk. But at the time, I just needed to get the hell away from him. Him and that whole damned city."
Note: This is the default answer.
The Sole Survivor: "What do you mean you didn't recognize him?"
John Hancock: "I don't know. Just didn't seem like the guy I grew up with. Guess that all makes sense now, knowing that he was with the Institute, but honestly I think I'm more angry now. I mean, where do I draw the line? Was the guy I grew up with the amoral piece of trash who gave the Ghouls the boot or was that just some Synth makin' a play for the city? Have I been hatin' the guy all these years for nothin'? Almost makes me wish I didn't know. At the time though, I just couldn't wait to get away from him and his whole damn constituency."
(John Hancock's dialogue) Note: This is the answer should McDonough have already been outed as a synth and Insitute spy. - ↑ The Sole Survivor: "Thanks. You're not so bad yourself."
John Hancock: "I never get many complaints. It's just real rare these days, find someone who's not just willing to take things the way they're handed to them. Too many good folks not willing to get their hands dirty and too many assholes taking advantage of it. Look at what happened to Diamond City. Before McDonough took over, it was a half-decent place to live. A little stricter than I usually go for, but not terrible. I thought he and I had a pretty happy childhood. But then he decides he's gonna try and get elected with his anti-Ghoul crusade - "Mankind for McDonough." Before ya know it, you got families with kids lining up to drag folks they called "neighbor" out of their homes and throw 'em to the ruins."
(John Hancock's dialogue) - ↑ 9.0 9.1 McDonough: "Welcome, welcome. Good to see you again. I trust you've been sent by our mutual friend, Mister Ayo? I hope he's doing well."
The Sole Survivor: "He's fine."
Mayor McDonough: "I'm glad to hear it. There's a farm out there run entirely by Ghouls, if you can believe it. They might be a problem in the future. I ran on a campaign of strict "No Ghouls Allowed" politics. When you build up a scapegoat, you need them to remain distant and scary. But Ghoul settlements breed Ghoul sympathizers. Let our mutual friends know we might need to... give them a reason to be less friendly... The full details are in my report, along with some other points of interest. Here it is. Make sure that nobody sees this. Better you destroy it than let it fall into the wrong hands."
(McDonough's dialogue) - ↑ The Sole Survivor: "He murdered those Ghouls."
John Hancock: "Him and that whole damned city. I still wasn't a Ghoul at this point, so I didn't have to leave, but I couldn't bring myself to stay in that cesspool after that. I'd been sneakin' off to Goodneighbor for years to get decent chems, so I knew the safe routes. I managed to track down a couple of the families, lead 'em there, but most couldn't get used to the Goodneighbor lifestyle. I brought them food for a couple of weeks, but after a while, they just disappeared. Folks in Diamond City signed their death warrants and all the good people were willing to just sit by and watch. I felt like I was the only one who saw how screwed up things truly were, who couldn't just pretend things were fine. Still feel that way... or I did. Until I met you. I know I run my mouth, but having someone who sees the world for what it is and is willing to do something about it. It's meant a lot to me. I feel damn lucky to have you as a friend."
