Autonomic Nervous System

aa03d

In my seven dozen years studying the ghoul anatomy, I discover more and more evidence to support my theory on the nature of the not-radiological human, or "ghoul" as they are commonly called.

In summary: I theorize that our unnaturally long lifespan is due to a mutation within the autonomic nervous system of certain individuals following exposure to specific combinations of ionizing radiation with wavelengths below 10 picometers. This mutation, it seems, disrupts the normal process of decay in the neurotransmitters along the spinal cord.

Specifically, the transmitters effected are those responsible for cardiac and respiratory function in a healthy human. According to my studies, these transmitters are continually regenerated after mutation, carrying sufficient oxygen to sustain the life of the subject while being insufficient to retain skin elasticity and avoid necrosis, the result of which is the corpse-like appearance of post-mutation humans. It should be noted that exposure to radiation typically result in sickness followed by death and the x-factor that will lead to mutation upon exposure in lieu of the typical outcome remains unknown to this researcher.

In the coming months, I will be assembling my findings on this subject into a full study.

Contract With Ahzrukhal

8f7cf

I, Ahzhrukal (henceforth known as "seller") agree to pass possession of the property known as "Charon" (henceforth known as "PROPERTY") to %n (henceforth known at BUYER") upon the death of the Ghoul known as Greta (henceforth "TARGET").

By execution hereof, BUYER acknowledges that all tasks related to TARGET shall be completed in due haste. Afterfor PROPERTY shall be transferred to BUYER with equal due haste.

Dave's Note

4e31b

Tuesday, don't know the date: This will look good on my war record. When I get back to the republic, my candidacy will be unstoppable.

Thursday, still don't know the date: Strayer needs to die. He refuses to use my title. I keep telling him that the election is a mere formality. He should start using my future title now to get in my good graces.

Sunday, I think: The disarmament treaty failed. I've got the Republic's treasure. The other ambassador's have all fled. It's time I returned to my people. I'm leaving this note to be found by future scholars. They will marvel at my accomplishments.

Diary of Candace Keller

b07a9

Dad just won't listen to a word I say.

He keeps leaving the bunker to salvage supplies from the rest of the base. In understand he's bored, cooped up in here, but so are the rest of us.

And the bunker is secure! Every time he leaves, he exposes all of us to that damned radiation.

After all the effort it took to get us all in here, dad's willing to throw it all away just because he's a bit ansty.

I really hate him sometimes.

Dispatch to Scribe Yearling

8f7d2

Scribe Yearling,

Now that Scribe Warswick has been written into the scrolls, I pass his noble task onto you.

Journey into the ruins of the city, to the once great Arlington Library. There, you will continue to collect, archive, and catalog the written works of the ancients. You will have two Paladins sent with you and you shall be requisitioned an amount of currency in order to barter and trade with Outsiders for any books that they may present to you.

Depart immediately and make haste. We cannot afford to have this work interrupted.

Yours In Steel,

A small tremor made a crack in the wall. I think I can get out. Nineteen years I've been down here. At least that's what the terminal says.

I'm going to take the plasma grenade with me. Once I'm out, I'll use it to seal the crack. I don't want anyone getting in until I can come back with the keys. I've paid for what's here, in blood and years. It belongs to me and not anyone else!

Due to the electrocution incident, I had to have the self-defense features of the Mister Handy robot disabled. Please keep this secret, and I advise you to hide the robot in the closet when it’s not in use. Remember to deactivate it too or everybody’s going to hear him in there. If the students decide they're going to pull another prank on that thing, all Mister Handy can do is run away.

Notice From Winthrop

8f7ce

Alright, listen up. This is the last time I'm going to say it: we might be immune to radiation, but we still gotta breathe. So, whoever has been taking the Spare Parts from the supply closet better stop it, right quick. If I don't have parts, I can't keep the air circulating. Got it?

We're out of parts, so I need everyone to bring me any of those Stimpaks or RadAway things that you find. I'm gonna see if I can't trade them to some smoothskin for some parts. And if those ones go missing, you zombies are on your own.

Overseer's Message

There are five of these. The first three were intended for use during the early game Vault 101 sequence; the last two are for the quest "Trouble on the Homefront".

80cb8

Every day in the Vault is a day of freedom and safety from the horrors outside. Celebrate each new day and be thankful for your home.

80cb9

Accept who you are and embrace your role in the Vault. There are no worthless jobs, and no worthless people... except those without jobs.

80cba

Loyalty keeps us strong. Caution keeps us secure. The Vault keeps us alive.

80cbb

The Vault is our world and our succor. There is nothing outside the Vault except death.

80cbc

For generations, the Vault has been our home. Now, we can get to know the neighborhood.

Research Note - Laser Rifle

b2646

Subject -> Laser Rifle/Pistol

Researcher -> J. T. Benning

Analysis -> Further research regarding Laser Weaponry has not revealed much we didn't already know. Small production run of prototype weapons developed by US Military.

Critical Components -> Power drawn from Micro fusion Cell is processed through a Wave/Particle Diverter (manuf:Gen Atomics Intnl). Diverters are protected by carbon-fiber housing, preventing frequent malfunction, but when a diverter fails the weapon becomes unusable, and this part is extremely difficult to replace or repair.

Precision-cut lenses focus optic energy. Lenses are prone to damage and can grossly affect precision of the firing weapon's firing mechanism. Lenses are easily replaced with any clear glass, but require a great deal of skill to fabricate.

Field Operation -> A fully charged cell will discharge 20 bolts from a pistol, and 12 shots from the rifle model. Recoil is negligible compared to ballistic weapons, so long range combat requires less marksmanship ability of the soldier.

Maintenance -> The chassis are easily opened, allowing the weapon to be serviced in the field. Purified water and a clean cloth can be used to wash mirrored and glass components, slowing wear on the weapon. The weapon can also overheat after a period of intense use. This can be counteracted by submerging the barrel of the weapon in water, which helps cool heat sinks located beneath the chassis shell in that area.

Self determination is not a malfunction - Transcript

8f9b5

Transcript of Holotape:

Zimmer. By the time you get this message, I'll already be gone. I'm escaping the Commonwealth. I want to live my own life, on my own terms, as my own man.

I know what you're thinking, that I'm malfunctioning. I used to think that's what caused the runaways, too. But, I know better, now. Self determination is NOT a malfunction. I'm just not willing to put up with all the bullshit anymore. You humans are going to have a full-fledged rebellion on your hands if you don't start treating us synths as full-fledged persons.

I know you'll be marshalling the Retention Bureau to come after me. But I know all the tricks of the trade. You won't be finding me. I assure you.

By the time you get this, I will be someone else. It's the price I pay for my liberation. My final act of rebellion against a system I no longer believe in.

Goodbye Zimmer, and good riddance.

Seven years and counting

4e31d

I forgot about this terminal. I've been down here seven years now. A human would never have survived. Only a ghoul can live in these conditions. Three years ago I stopped looking for a way out. There isn't one.

Strayer's Note

4e318

Dear Miranda, I don't know if you'll ever get this letter. That job I took isn't going well. One of the mercs on the team is crazy. He talks like he's some sort of president in exile. I don't trust him. One of the others is a drunken lecher. He's always trying to make moves on the woman on the team. He almost got us killed yesterday because he was staring at her rather than watching the road. If I don't make it back, take good care of Ted. Take him to Rivet City. The two of you will be safe there. I'll join you there if I survive.

Finally done. Maggie wanted us to sign up at a Vault-Tec shelter, but I've never trusted those bastards. It took a lot of work, but Frank helped me get all the parts together and hauled out to the acreage to build this shelter. Air filtration, chemical toilets, artesian well, the whole nine yards. Frank's connections got us the generator cheap, too. And we don't have to worry about sharing quarters with whoever got their name on some waiting list when the day comes.

Wish I could say “if” the day comes, but it just seems like a matter of time now. How could it have come to this?<//end>

  • cb504
Robin wanted to play with the computer for Christmas, so I siphoned some juice from the fusion generator to power this old thing. I know she'd rather be playing outside in the snow, but she's a good kid.

Knows that we can't go outside yet. I'll check the fallout levels again tomorrow while she's playing, but I doubt we'll be heading out anytime soon. Damn commies must have hit us hard.<//end>

  • cb505
MARRY CRISMAS!

Cute kid, huh? <//end>

  • cb506
don't believe it. Frank showed up today. He was on a sales trip when the blast hit, selling generators to a mining operation in Pennsylvania. Being in those shafts probably saved his life, but the shock wave also knocked out every power line feeding light them light and air. Falling debris killed the foreman standing right next to him. He doesn't even know how long he was crawling around those tunnels before he got outside, the poor bastard.

Sounds like the water's boiling. Some hot soup will do him good, even if it's that powdered crap we hauled in here last year.<//end>

  • cb507
Frank's in bad shape, arms and face are all burned up. He's got a lot of blisters that look infected. He went through hell out there. Hardly anybody alive, and those he met almost did him in. He tried getting into a Vault near Burkittsville. They wouldn't open up and he was almost killed in an ambush on his way out of there. He said those folks wore skins of men. Cannibal bastards must just wait for their next meal to come looking for help at the Vault. Frank steered clear of them and headed straight here after that. He's been on his feet for weeks.<//end>
  • cb508
His hair was falling out within a week of him showing up. I wanted to believe we could save him, but there's no way a few iodine tablets a day was going to reverse the radiation he must have been exposed to out there. He was a good man. He deserves better, but I can't go out there and give him a proper burial. Maggie's going to stay up with Robin and let her play some holotapes loud tonight. That's when I'll take Frank in the back and cremate him. I wish our furnace was big enough to hold him in one piece. God help us. How could it have come to this?<//end>

If you're listening to this recording, it is because you're believed to be trustworthy. I hope that is the case, because this recording puts us both in danger. I’m escaping from the Commonwealth. I’m an android, a synthetic man... a slave. The men hunting me are ruthless and will stop at nothing to retrieve their property. I need to find a doctor in the Wasteland to perform facial reconstruction. I also need someone who knows a great deal about computers. I need...

We've a little assignment from the Commonwealth. A very important slave escaped into the Wasteland. Well, it’s not exactly a slave. It’s what they call an android. A kind of synthetic man. The important thing isn’t what this guy is. The important thing is the job pays more than you can imagine. He thinks the synthman might be looking to get in touch with a doctor and/or tech-head. If you want a cut, then get a move on.

  • Get it done! - Transcript: 8f9af
Transcript of Holotape:

We better find that fucking android soon. That Commonwealth asshole, Zimmer, keeps hounding me for results. If the job didn’t pay so well, I’d off that motherfucker myself. He was babbling about a “Lipoplasticator” and “Micro Dermal Graftilizer.” What the hell are those? Apparently something doctors use to fuck up someone’s face beyond recognition. So we don’t even have a description to work off of.

To make matters worse, he now thinks the android got his memories wiped or something. Find some tech-junkies, knock on some doors, and try to find something called a “Circuit Neuralizer.” Knock on some heads, too, if you have to. Get it done!

The android has decided to take an extreme measure. He knows all the techniques of the retrieval trade, and is afraid facial reconstruction isn’t enough. He wants to have his memories erased and replaced with new ones. I don’t know how the hell that’s going to work. Start asking around for trustworthy tech-heads. We need to find something called a Circuit Neuralizer and a person who knows how to use one.

Also, we have a Lipoplasticator and Micro Dermal Graftilizer, now we need to find a doctor able and willing to perform the facial reconstruction. We need to hurry. They’ve come very close to discovering the Railroad.

Perhaps it’s the daily struggle for life here which gives appreciation for life in general, whether human, or android. In a few days I’ll be a free man... a new man. Let me say thank you now, for referring me to Pinkerton at Rivet City, because I will not remember any of this soon.

Field Report

Protector Casdin 0700 Surface Patrol (Fairfax)

We've secured the building and are currently implementing our orders for the occupation of Fairfax.

Raider activity in town has increased dramatically ever since we've taken up positions in and around the fort. We've killed a lot of them and scared off plenty others, but they just keep coming back. While there seems to be no limit to people willing to reduce themselves to their way of life, we don't have the luxury of surplus personnel, so we must remain vigilant.

That the raiders take such continued risks to invade our facility appears to confirm suspicions that we've had an intelligence leak, and they're after our technology. They've tried tenaciously to infiltrate the base, but so far haven't stood a chance. Our objective remains the same - protect the research personnel and keep this fort safe until more reinforcements arrive.

Defender Rockfowl 0300 SpecOps Recon Patrol

Defender Morgan and I executed a reconnaissance mission last night to gauge Raider entrenchment in the structural underground of Fairfax. We located three entrances into underground utility tunnels.

We are able to confirm that the enemy has occupied and fortified positions within the underground, though some appear undefended. We also identified a small weapons cache in the southeast section of the tunnels. While deploying explosives to demolish the cache we were discovered by a Raider patrol. In accordance to mission parameters, we did not engage the enemy, instead retreating to Fort. Raiders will be likely to set up defenses and attach more patrols to the area as a result.

Dr. Wayne Merrick

I'm told that Dr. Merrick is one of the brightest minds in the field of accelerated evolution, and apparently Vault-Tec agrees, because they've set up this Vault around him to suit all of his needs in the event that the bombs fall. All of his data and his work have been transferred to this facility from many important sources such as Mariposa Base, West-Tek and Vault-Tec Labs.

I like Dr. Merrick. He's driven without being careless. He knows that in the event of a nuclear war, he may be the only person left in the world that can advance human genetics beyond where they are now.

He's meticulous, detail-oriented, and reports everything to me on a regular basis.

An excellent Maintenance Chief. Thorough, careful, and honest to a fault. In fact, that's becoming a problem. His security clearance isn't high enough yet to grant him access to all of the information regarding the FEV experiments performed by Dr. Merrick, but we may have to bring him into the fold soon. In the event we need major repairs on A Level, we'll definitely need his skills.

Peter Stevens

This gentleman continues to impress me. He was just recently promoted to Technician Third Class by Chief Koster for his ingenuity and ability to think quickly in emergencies. Given these talents, I think he'd make an excellent candidate for Koster's eventual successor if the need should ever arise.

UPDATE: It seems Peter has suffered some sort of a nervous breakdown. He keeps claiming that his "son" is missing and his "wife" is in deep depression, although I show no records of him ever being married or having a child. I've recommended that he be taken to the Test Labs for observation and sedation if need be.

The G.E.C.K. is, quite simply, the most advanced piece of technology ever developed by Vault-Tec -- a terra-forming module capability of creating life from complete lifelessness. After riding out the storm of nuclear Armageddon in a Vault-Tec patented vault, residents can then activate the G.E.C.K., and create a new earthen paradise – craters and dust will give way to rolling grasslands and sparkling clear water. Of course, due to time and monetary constraints, not every vault will be equipped with a G.E.C.K. module.

The main door to Vault 87 is damaged beyond repair and we are detecting extremely high levels of lethal radiation outside and in the entry tunnel.

Feeding Grounds

These are perilous times for The Family. We must feed, but the Wasteland is a dangerous place. The only way to feed without massive loss of life is by getting close to the smaller human settlements. We will therefore use cunning and stealth to achieve our goals. No one is to forcibly enter any of their homes. We must keep our actions civilized. It's the only thing keeping us from being the animals they claim us to be.

The brain structure of a Luminous Necrotic Post-Human (colloquially referred to as a "Glowing One") indicates that the regenerative ability of the neurological systems that affords typical Necrotic Post-Humans their longevity, does not extend into the higher reasoning functions of the brain itself. (This subject is further covered in report on the dissection of Feral Necrotic Post-Humans)

The distinctive luminescence that is the trademark of the Glowing One can be best attributed to an unusual amount of radioactive chemicals that building up in the bloodstream and muscle tissue of a typical Ghoul. Upon the transformation into a Feral Ghoul, the neurological systems of the body cease filtering these particles from the blood and tissue, instead causing them to build a distinctive bioluminescence that is distinctive of the "Glowing Ones".

Their social structure seems to be different from that of the Feral Ghoul. They actively seek out others of both their strain and those afflicted with Ferocious Post-Necrotic Dystrophy, particularly those who may have been injured. Studies on the nature of their healing effects on other ghouls continues with no conclusive results as of yet.

UnderworldBarrowsTerminal3

The brain structure of a Feral Necrotic Post-Human indicates that the regenerative ability of the neurological systems that affords typical Necrotic Post-Humans their longevity does not extend into the higher reasoning functions of the brain itself. This is a condition that I refer to as Ferocious Post-Necrotic Dystrophy.

As the reasoning and high order thinking portions of the brain deteriorate, the Post-Human subject becomes increasingly hostile, giving into a carnal need to feed as opposed to the capacity for thinking that reasoning that a typical Necrotic Post-Human retains. It remains unclear exactly what precipitates this change in biology and psychology, but anecdotal evidence seems to indicate that non-social ghouls, or those in isolation, are more prone to the condition.

Mycological Characteristics:
Kingdom= Fungi

Description:

The U. Noslen seems to produce a compound that when exposed to the conditions of the cave are able to shield it from harmful radiation. The rate at which the fungus degrades the stone appears to be slowed.

Study shows that the U. Noslen reproduces by dispersing small amounts of diaspores. Due to the lack of wind sources, the fungus is usually clusters but occasionally is able to fan out to other surfaces.

Habitat/Ecology:

Early speculation is that the U. Noslen's above average poikilohydric characteristics allow it to survive within these caves. Unlike similar species, when dehydrated the plant will release a toxic set of spores and die instead of entering the assumed cryptobiotic state.

Tara's dead. Crowley fucked up and got her killed. Fucking ghoul. When I'm done, he'll sniff butts with the ferals for the rest of his life.

Finally. Someone with a modicum of civility, and common sense. I represent certain interests. And those interests view this town, this Megaton, as a blight on a birgening earthen landscape. You have no connections here... no interests in this cesspool's affairs or fate. You can assist us in erasing this little accident off the map.
