History

Gecko was built upon the ashes of Gecko City, a pre-war town. It seems the main town inhabitants were ghouls escaped from Necropolis when the Master decided to wipe the town. The ghouls made the power plant working, and tried to trade and visit the nearest city, Vault City, but unfortunately their neighbours decided to shoot them on sight. Gecko's ghouls have then a power plan that could provide energy to all nearest cities, but due to their ghoul status, they can't do anything of it. They have a leader, Harold, that is helped by the town's doctor, Lenny.

Description

The power plant, belonging to Poseidon Oil.

Gecko is what we could call a secondary town, but is not a desert town. Thanks to the near Vault City, Gecko attracts many players, and features all a big town can have. Beware, as it is not a guarded town, you may die there.
