Vault

Overseer Jacoren, Vault 13"'Do your best. Remember, we're all counting on you.'"Overseer of Vault 76"'Please, I gave 76 everything. You were all so brilliant. The first few years were hard, but we learned to trust each other. You learned to trust me. I was young... So young... Younger than most of you. But you accepted me as your Overseer'"A vault is a type of subterranean installation initially designed by the Vault-Tec Corporation, later constructed in collaboration with RobCo Industries. Officially, they were designed for the sole purpose of sheltering up to one thousand citizens each in the event of a nuclear holocaust; however, in reality, they were a series of secret experiments orchestrated by the United States government. This particular Vault contains a council of Overseers as opposed to the traditional one; it's from this council, each one an exemplar of their field, that the Overseer of the week is chosen.

History
Commissioned by the U.S. government in 2054 as part of "Project: Safehouse," also known as the "Societal Preservation Program," the Vault-Tec Corporation constructed 122 vaults across the country. However, at the onset of the Great War in 2077, most vaults were sealed without many of their intended inhabitants, a result of the “cry wolf effect" that previous training drills had on the populace.

The first vault was constructed beneath Los Angeles, and was intended to demonstrate the viability of such a facility. Unlike subsequent installations, this demonstration vault was not part of the ulterior experiments behind Project: Safehouse, and wasn't meant for anything more than a demonstration. By 2063, most of the vaults had finished construction, with the exceptions of 13, 76, 114, 118 and 88. Vault 112 is the last known construction on record, completed in June of 2074.
