Megaton

Location from Fallout by Interplay / Bethesda

A ramshackle town built in a bomb crater around a live atomic warhead that the locals either worship or ignore — the most dangerous front porch ornament in the wasteland.

Also known as: Megaton Settlement, The Crater Town, Bomb Town

What They Know

• The atomic bomb at the center is still live — it can be disarmed by a skilled explosives expert or detonated remotely
• The Children of Atom worship the bomb and consider the radiation a divine blessing
• Moriarty's Saloon is the information hub where Colin Moriarty trades in secrets as much as drinks
• Moira Brown runs Craterside Supply and is compiling the Wasteland Survival Guide through dangerous field research
• The town's water supply is processed through a purification system that barely keeps up with demand
• A detonator in Tenpenny Tower can level the entire settlement — Burke has standing orders to make it happen
