“A cold, haunted, and loud place. The poor souls within cursed and haunted by the corrupted shadow of the Old World, looming over them even still as if vanguarding over them. But when I did what they told me to do one day; let them poke my arms with their horrible bloodsucking needles while they tap into and stare at their bright button boxes... they have provided me with food and water in exchange that has kept my baby child from starving. It is even rumored that some of those who enter or visit this place that were not already there before, however are never to return, as if falling from the tip of the edge of the very world itself! But that didn't happen to me, they even still help me today if I stand and show them my eyes for awhile!”— A female scavenger, trading at Fall's Edge.

Camp Fall's Edge is an Enclave base located near Providence, Rhode Island. Built centred around the former USS Fall's Edge (CC-3), Camp Fall's Edge acts as the last bastion of the United States government, a title formerly held by two other locations.

Background[]

The now no longer functional aircraft carrier itself that they had been utilizing as safe haven and to stay off of the wider Wasteland's grid completely for many years, was converted into the very last remaining VTOL Vertibird construction and maintenance zone under the direct command of the newly appointed Colonel.

Although it takes on average nearly an entire half year for a single new Vertibird to reach completion because of the increasing lack of integral components, the Enclave has been able to maintain it's access to and utilization of Vertibird fuel with the recycling of fusion technology. This method of desperate resource management is quickly polluting the entire coast of Rhode Island and it's irradiated salt waters and is projected to have an effect on the entire state coastline by the beginning of the new century.

The interior of Fall's Edge hosts a large, sophisticated laboratory and living quarters for Research & Development, the Enclave's division of science and scientific efforts, to go about their projects with relative freedom and zero complaints - other than the decaying metallic smell and weathered appearance of the interior (and the exterior) of the now-ancient, decommissioned pre-War Navy vessel.

Inhabitants[]

Enclave troopers donned in APA MK II power armors and sporting plasma rifles, laser RCW's, and tri-beam laser rifles patrol and scout the beach, it's borders, and sometimes lead expeditionary squadrons to chart and map new nearby territories or rarely, even conquer them.

They carefully and punctually document any wastelander traffic, yet rarely interfere with or impede the timid and humble tribes that populate fairly close to their whereabouts, instead opting to focus their belligerence on that which is belligerent towards them, or has been before.

Troops rescue abandoned or 'lost' Enclave personnel, while the R&D team continue to faithfully optimize Duraframe alloy barricades, pulse field technologies, planting and arming plasma mine fields, or personally manning emplaced turret defenses.

A large and organized gang of marauders once terrorized the locale in and around Fall's Edge, but they were promptly and utterly hunted down and killed systematically by the likes of a four-man squad of the Enclave outpost's best and most deadly, selected by the colonel himself. In cooperative fashion, the marauders' abodes being used as regroup points for their own were obliterated mercilessly by newly utilized pre-War howitzers and anti-air craft (AA) guns, set up on the right side of the Fall's Edge aircraft carrier and later the borders of the complex.
