The Enclave
◈ FACTION DOSSIER ◈
Status	Active - Covert
Location	Classified Wendover Region (Suspected)
Founder	N/A
Commander	The Reformer, Daniel Kukowski
Ideology	American Continuity Genetic & Technological Supremacy
Motto	God Bless America.
Affiliation	United States Government (Self-Proclaimed)
⬜ RESTRICTED ACCESS ⬜

The Enclave is the self-proclaimed continuation of the United States government. Founded by a secret cabal of political, military, and corporate elites, they retreated to fortified bunkers and offshore installations just before the Great War to survive the nuclear apocalypse they helped facilitate.

The Wendover Enclave, being largely isolated from other branches of the organization, has lain dormant for over 200 years. But the call to action has come, and the work to rebuild America has begun. The Enclave is active in Utah once more.

They are the most technologically advanced human organization in the known world. They are also the most dangerous.

"We are the United States of America. We never fell. We never surrendered. And we are coming back."

History

2077: The Great War and the Great Retreat

Immediately following the nuclear exchange, the Enclave leadership activated their continuity of government protocols. While the primary leadership fled to the Control Station Enclave (an oil rig off the coast of California), regional branches took command of specialized bunkers across the continent.

• The Appalachian Branch: Led by Secretary of Agriculture Thomas Eckhart, this group occupied the Whitespring Bunker. Eckhart was an extremist who believed the war was not "won." He murdered his superiors to seize control and declare himself President.
• The Poseidon Oil Rig: The "Main Branch" established their base of operations here, overseeing the various regional outposts from afar. They followed an extreme policy of genetic purity, believing that all humans outside the Enclave were impure examples of the human race, fit only for extermination.

These isolated branches of the U.S. Government would operate in secrecy for centuries, performing experiments and research in preparation for the drive to reclaim America.

2242: The Fall of Western Command

The destruction of the Oil Rig by the "Chosen One" is a pivotal moment in Enclave history. The loss of the President and the Rig forced the Enclave to transition from a global superpower to a migratory force. Surviving members, led by Scientist Autumn Senior, began a "Great March" toward the East Coast.

Lacking a central command, Enclave ideological cohesion begins to drift as localized branches must begin to make decisions for themselves. Two main factions would take shape - the Hardliners, who still believe in the genetic extremism upheld by the Oil Rig HQ, and the Pragmatists, who are willing to make compromises to this policy in the name of rebuilding America.

2277: The Capital Wasteland Campaign

By this year, the Enclave had re-established a massive presence at Raven Rock and Adams Air Force Base in Washington, D.C.

Leader	Position
John Henry Eden	A sentient ZAX supercomputer that believed it was the reincarnation of all great American Presidents. Hardliner - proposed using a modified FEV to commit global genocide against anyone with mutated DNA.
Colonel Augustus Autumn	Son of Autumn Senior. Pragmatist - rejected Eden's genocidal plan, preferring to use the region's water supply as a political tool to force the population to accept Enclave rule.

The Outcome: The Enclave was decisively defeated by the Brotherhood of Steel. This marked the end of the Enclave as an organized, open military government on the East Coast, largely as a result of the internal conflict between the two factions.

2296: The Research Resurgence

Decades after their major defeats, a highly organized and secretive Enclave branch has emerged in Wendover. The local branch of the Enclave began with a single member, awoken from cryogenic stasis after 200 years of slumber - The Reformer, Daniel Kukowski.

Aspect	Details
Strategy	Shifting away from open warfare, this branch focuses on advanced bio-engineering and energy physics. To facilitate these goals and expand their influence, the Wendover Enclave styles itself as the United States Army, and seeks to bolster their numbers through propaganda and aggressive recruitment drives. They operate with extreme secrecy, and ensure all new members are absolutely loyal to the cause through experimental technology...
Ideology	This version of the Enclave is more calculated. They view themselves as the ultimate stewards of the planet's future, possessing Cold Fusion technology required to restart civilization. They also take a more Pragmatic approach to outsiders - Wastelanders with minor mutations or radiation damage can be recruited and cured, and even ghouls and mutants are not denied an opportunity to serve their country... As second-class citizens.
Goal	Less interested in immediate genocide - more interested in the total control of planetary resources and the technological infrastructure of the new world. Scientific efforts focus not only on advanced energy technology, but on medical procedures capable of curing, reversing or preventing the various mutations caused by radiation and FEV. Rebuilding America is the goal, now and forever.

Research Protocols

The Enclave has access to the most advanced medical and research equipment in the known world:

Practice	Protocols
Research	Being on the bleeding edge of science and technology, the Enclave have access to resources and tools to see research accomplished. Precaution is to be taken and measures assured so that that equipment and fellow Enclave members are not harmed in the process. Focusing on rebuilding America, killing people to see the research finished is not the goal. Rebuilding America will require precise and calculated research. They will be documenting data, collecting samples, and gathering intelligence to make sure they are seeing the goals given to them accomplished.
Test Subjects	Soldiers and civilians matter, and the Enclave are never to be tested on with genetic or medical procedures, they are in this organization together. Recent recruits (in round), and enemies of the Enclave can be experimented on to accomplish its goals. Pointless experimentation and medical procedures on outsiders is to be avoided, the Enclave pride themselves on being ideal American citizens.
Medical Procedures	Medical torture is frowned upon within the Enclave. You would not harm a future American citizen. The Enclave view themselves as better than the rest. Enemies to the cause may be used as needed in case of emergency to ensure the health and well being of its members.
Genetic Mutations	The goal is reversing the damage of the great war. Still emphasizing purity, they seek to correct the mutations caused by radiation and FEV. If America is to be restored to its true American genetic and ideological baseline. Eradication of harmful mutations is the goal.
Genetic Usage	The Enclave are not against the use of mutations for their benefit. They pledge themselves to the cause. Mutations visible to the naked eye are to be avoided, as it does not represent the purity the Enclave is after. However, products that safely enhance the strength of soldier and have use in combat are acceptable to use.

Threat Assessment

Faction	Standing	Notes
Brotherhood of Steel	Tense	The Brotherhood has fought the Enclave twice and won. The Enclave will not allow it to happen a third time.
NCR	Tense	The NCR views the Enclave as a rogue military government and a direct threat to democratic governance. The Enclave views the NCR as an illegitimate government operating on American soil. There is little love lost between the two.
Caesar's Legion	Tense	The Legion respects strength but the Enclave's technology represents everything Caesar sought to destroy. The Enclave see the Legion as little more than Slavers and Raiders.
Townsfolk	Neutral	Civilians have heard the stories - but they've never seen actual Enclave members, until now. Are the stories true? The Enclave views locals as honest American citizens, to be vetted and potentially enlisted in the same way as any other Wastelander.
Wastelanders	Neutral	To Wastelanders, the Enclave can be hard to distinguish from the Brotherhood. To the Enclave, unaffiliated Wastelanders are future soldiers.
Followers of the Apocalypse	Tense	The Followers despise the Enclave's power-hungry ways, naked militarism and authoritarian practices. The Enclave sees the Followers as undisciplined anarchists... But also begrudgingly recognizes that they produce some of the wasteland's finest Scientists.
Outlaws	Tense	Raiders are vermin to be cleansed. The Enclave does not negotiate with bandits.
