Contents |
[edit] History
It was founded soon after the War by a soldier called Darkwater Killian that his grandfather founded Junktown. Instead of the ruins of an old town, he thought it would be better to begin from the ground up. The town mostly lives out of trading and has a reputation of open hospitality.
Around 2161, the mayor of Junktown was Killian Darkwater, grandson of the town's founder, who also ran Darkwaters General Store. Another big player in the town was Gizmo, a big-time crook and casino owner. While Gizmo's casino brought a lot of tourists and money into the town, problems also came with it. Other important places in Junktown at that time included Crash-House Inn, home to the Skulz and the Skum Pitt, a bar owned by Neal. Doc Morbid was the town's doctor. Tycho, a Wasteland Ranger, also resided in Junktown for a while at that time.
In 2161, Lars headed the guards in Junktown, working for Killian Darkwater. The gates were guarded by Kalnor. They also had a jail, which is guarded by Andrew. The guards were aware of the illegal activities of Gizmo and the Skulz, but they didn't want to act without proper evidence.
Gizmo hired a man to assassinate Killian, in order to gain full control over the town. It is not explicitly stated in the Fallout 2 manual which side the Vault Dweller sided with, as it alludes to both Killian and Gizmo. NCR was built from the ashes of the Shady Sands, a small town built by the survivors of the early-opened Vault 15. Villagers of the Shady Sands were smart enough to build an army, and to develop their town. Later on, NCR had became a real state, with both police and military faction. Its great resources are coming from its large brahmin herds, and from the caravans. Directed by the president Tandi for dozens of years, NCR took wise decisions and is still expanding.
