 In 2237, having obtained the FEV data, the Enclave abandoned the site after more mutations occurred, causing 2nd Generation super mutants to arise. The Enclave left a single squad behind to wipe out the super mutants, but the mutants, using armaments they had cached in the base during excavation, won the battle. The remaining 1st and 2nd Generation [[super mutant]] slaves decided to remain in the Base, and the group formed a new community under the leadership of [[Melchior]], whose magic talents had allowed them to hide the weapons.

-The construction of Mariposa started in October 2076 when large progress was made in [[FEV]] research, and the government preferred to move the project to a location under military supervision. In january 2077, all the scientists involved in the project moved there with a military squad commanded by colonel Spindal and captain Roger Maxson. The FEV project was then 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.

 On October 10 2077, Maxson and his men were discovered that the scientists at Mariposa were using military prisoners as test subjects in their experiments with the Forced Evolutionary Virus. Spindel commited suicide five days latern and Maxson's men turned to him for leadership. Investigating the base, Maxson and his squad killed all the scientists and declared they were deserting from the army via radio, on October 20. As the army was busy then fighting the Chinese threat, no troops were sent there, and three days later, the Great War began and the bombs were launched.

 Dr. Richard Grey was one of the explorers who was part of the expedition, and was the only survivor with Harold. Both landed in vats, and as Harold managed to escape, Grey remained in the base, attracting wanderers around him to make the first [[Super Mutants]]. In 2155, they discovered the LA vault, and moved there to build the [[Cathedral]]. The base was entrusted to the Lieutenant, one of the greatest supermutant minds to exist. Mariposa was rebuilt and cleaned up, once again becoming the magnificent military base it was before the war. Supermutants 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 supermutant production center.  Then came the Vault Dweller 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

-In 2236, the [[Enclave]] discovered the remnants of the Mariposa Base. Soon, assault squads combed the desert for slaves they could use to mine the military base and get to the vats. One of the squads included soldier [[Frank Horrigan]]. Enclave construction crews, as well as human and super mutant slaves began excavations. In September they uncovered [[FEV]], and mutations began to occur in the human workers. Frank Horrigan comes into contact with the virus and is sent to the Enclave labs for study.
