Vorlage:Ytp"Vats von Goo"

“[...] based on the fact that these mutants have a super high concentration of the virus, it stands to reason that there could be some place which is creating them. As to where they could be, I cannot hazard a guess.”— Vree's autopsy report

“My job was still not finished, for I still had one task remaining. The Master had literally built his army one mutant at a time. Humans, preferably with little radiation damage, were to be captured and sent to the Vats.”— Vault Dweller's memoirs

Die Mariposa Militärbasis war eine streng geheime Militärbasis der U.S. Regierung, gebaut um die Wissenschaft für das Forced Evolutionary Virus dort unterzubringen, die zuvor bei West Tek durchgeführt wurde, gelegen irgendwo im Bereich der unrechtsfähigen Gemeinschaft Mariposa in Kalifornien.

Fallout Lage

Mariposa Military Base can be found thirteen squares west of Vault 13.

Fallout 2 Lage

Mariposa Military Base can be found ten squares east and twenty-seven squares south of Arroyo.

Hintergrund

Vorkriegsgeschichte

The construction of Mariposa started in October 2076 when significant progress was made in FEV research, and the government preferred to move the project to a location under military supervision. In 2077, Major Barnett ordered transfer of all FEV research to the newly-constructed Mariposa Base, despite objections from the research team. Along with the scientists, a military team commanded by Colonel Robert Spindel, which previously monitored the experiments at West Tek, was sent to Mariposa. Spindel's second-in-command was Captain Roger Maxson. The FEV project was moved to Mariposa, and tested on human subjects. The vats were giant tanks filled with liquid FEV. As part of the research project, human subjects were dipped inside them, and then examined to learn how to control and harness the process. The experiments on humans were kept secret even from Spindel and his soldiers.

Geschichte

Vor dem Krieg

Vor dem Krieg war die Basis eine streng geheime Regierungsanlage, die sich mit der Entwicklung von FEV beschäftigte. Kurz bevor die Bomben fielen, war Roger Maxson der Leiter der Einrichtung. Chinesische Gefangene wurden als Testpersonen verwendet. Als die Bomben fielen, brachte Roger Maxson seine Männer nach Lost Hills.

Ereignisse zu Kriegszeiten

On October 10, Maxson and his men were horrified to discover that the scientists at Mariposa were using military prisoners as test subjects in their experiments with the Forced Evolutionary Virus. Morale in the base broke down, and Spindel suffered a mental breakdown, eventually committing suicide 5 days later. Maxson's men turned to him for leadership.

After interrogating Robert Anderson, the chief scientist, and learning about the extent of their actions, Maxson executed him, and the other scientists soon followed. Maxson, now in control of the entire base, declared himself to be in full desertion from the army via radio on October 20. Strangely, he got no response, as the rest of the army was busy fighting the Chinese threat. Three days later, the bombs were launched, and the Great War ended two hours after it started.

The Mariposa Military Base survived, the soldiers within protected from the radiation and FEV flooding the wasteland. Two days later at Mariposa, a scout in power armor named Platner was sent out to get specific readings on the atmosphere. He reported no significant radiation in the area surrounding the facility. After burying the scientists in the wastes outside of Mariposa, the soldiers sealed the military base, then headed out into the desert, taking supplies and weapon schematics with them. Captain Maxson led his men and families to the government bunker at Lost Hills, eventually forming the Brotherhood of Steel.

The base was left sealed, but over the years, it slowly fell into disrepair, and eventually various creatures made their way inside, mutating due to FEV exposure and infesting the surrounding area, attacking fledgling human settlements and caravans. The problem was becoming increasingly severe, to the point when Harold, a caravan master from the Hub, mounted an expedition in 2102 to locate and destroy the source of mutants.

Armee des Meisters

FEV Vats bei Mariposa

Dr. Richard Grey was one of the explorers who was part of the expedition. Harold led the men into Mariposa, but failed to account for the automated defenses, which were still online, and promptly attacked the explorers. Taking heavy casualties, they made their way to the deepest, fourth level, the F.E.V Vats, where a crane smashed into the two surviving explorers, Harold and Richard Grey. The former was knocked out, the latter landed in one of the virus vats, succumbing to a severe overdose.

In pain, horribly mutated, he crawled into the control room, as his intellect grew. In a few days, he was neurolinked to the base computer, drawing upon its sizable data banks. As he created the idea of the Unity, wanderers began to enter the facility, and Grey patiently captured and dipped them, in order to create beings as perfect as him. When the first true super mutants were created, he set out to create a true mutant army, at the same time deciding to look for a permanent base of operations. In 2155, one of his patrols located a group of vault dwellers from the LA Vault, and he made the decision to transfer himself there, occupying the Vault.

The base was entrusted to the Lieutenant, one of the greatest super mutant minds to exist. Mariposa was rebuilt and cleaned up, once again becoming the magnificent military base it was before the war. Super mutants roamed the halls, restocking the armories and medical base and soon it became the staging area for their assault on humanity, as well as the only super mutant production center.

Then came the Vault-Bewohner in 2162. It is unknown whether or not he infiltrated the base or blasted his way in - suffice to say, once he was through, Mariposa was little more than a caved-in, smoldering ruin.

Enklave Ausgrabung

Im Jahr 2236 grub die Enklave die Einrichtung aus und stellte einige Proben des FEV sicher. Die Sklaven, die die Basis ausgruben, wurden mit dem FEV infiziert und verwandelten sich in Supermutanten. Die Enklave zog sich daraufhin zurück und versiegelte den Eingang.
