John-Caleb Bradberton

John-Caleb Bradberton is the founder of the Nuka-Cola Corporation, and the inventor of Nuka-Cola.

Background
John-Caleb Bradberton invented Nuka-Cola in 2044, becoming a powerful man and CEO of the Nuka-Cola Corporation. Over the years, he spent much of his time trying to acquire the rights to various other soft drink brands, and changing them to fit the corporation.

In the years before the Great War, Bradberton was given access to the LEAP-X Program by General Braxton, as part of "Project Cobalt," in exchange for his weapon designs: an enhanced version of the Fat Man which would fire Quantum nukes, in which Bradberton also utilized the Quantum from this formula to create Nuka-Cola Quantum. Because the project was still only in its earliest stages at the time of the War, only his head was able to be preserved.

By 2287, Bradberton believes his condition to be nothing but a "living hell," and wants nothing more than death. He offers the Sole Survivor prototypes of his weapons if they choose to kill him by shutting off his life-support system. Should the Sole Survivor go through with his request, they will find a collection of Nuka-nukes in a room behind Bradberton, as well as the formula for Nuka-Cola.

Behind the scenes
undefined End
 * His name is an amalgamation of the inventors of Coca-Cola (John Pemberton) and Pepsi-Cola (Caleb Bradham).
 * Bradberton's cryogenically preserved head is a reference to the myth that Walt Disney was cryogenically frozen after his death; as the inventor of Nuka-Cola and head of the Nuka-Cola Corporation, he is to Nuka-World what Disney was to Disneyland and Disneyworld.
