Keller family transcript

The s tell of a pre-war family who were all alive when the first bombs have been dropped on October 23, 2077.

The Keller Family
The family members consisted of: The relations with each other are unknown due to the fact that there is little knowledge on each individual, however it is implied they had a strained relationship. Alex was a national guardsman who was arrested for stealing the access code to a bunker, and sent a single digit of it to each family member, forcing them to be together to survive the bombs.
 * The father (nameless beyond "Mr. Keller")
 * The mother
 * Candace
 * Alex
 * Tina
 * Ralph

All of the family members unfortunately died in the underground National Guard Depot (except for Ralph, see below). In the bunker there is a Glowing One, it seems probable that this is what became of the father as a result of his many trips to the outside, searching for supplies in the irradiated wasteland.

Ralph is the only member of the family who did not enter the bunker, stating that he had "a mushroom cloud to walk into" - the implication being that he had no intention of sheltering from the oncoming nuclear apocalypse.

Tape 1
Travel to the VAPL-58 Power Station then head North following the electric/hydro towers and it'll be at the base of the last one (third tower). The tape is on the bookcase at the bottom shelf.

NOTE: This tape is NOT needed to enter the bunker; it does not have one of the 4-digit code numbers. Just backstory for this quest.

There is also a Mini Nuke and Pre-War Book inside the boarded up area.

Tape 2
Travel to Hallowed Moors Cemetery North of Big Town. Going in at the front entrance, the second Keller tape will be on the left on top of the podium.

There is a Captive inside, and a mini nuke on the table inside a wooden crate. Also three frag grenades in an overturned wooden crate behind the table with two ammunition boxes near it. Near the captive there is also a small crate with two boxes of either abraxo cleaner or detergent in it; there are two stimpaks underneath them. There is also a Big Book of Science in the podium.

as well as a D.C Journal of Medicine on the shelves on the left before the captive

Tape 3
Travel to Grisly Diner and head inside, then go to your right and out the back. The third Keller tape is located on a desk at the back.

there is also a copy of tales of junk town the jerky vendor inside the diner on the first set of racking (be aware of trap that swings from the ceiling activated by the pressure plate on the floor)

Caution: There are mines around the front and rear of the diner.

Tape 4
Travel to Rockbreaker's Last Gas and turn to the west. You will see an abandoned shack at the top of a cliff, which is the location of the fourth Keller tape. Make your way around the cliff from the left side of the mountain, where there are a super mutant and a super mutant brute. Enter the shack and the tape will be on the workbench on the left.

This is also where the Victory Rifle is located.

Tape 5
Travel to Anchorage Memorial and head to the north. Across the river there is a truck on its side and a tent behind it. Inside the tent on the table is the fifth Keller tape.

There is either a Super Mutant, Super Mutant Master or a Super Mutant Overlord and two Centaurs there. There is also a Captive inside. The Super Mutant Overlord only appears if you have the Broken Steel DLC.

Keller Family Transcript 3 of 5
Judging by the sound of the static there are the likely possibility is that during one of the blasts, the EMP burst from a bomb short-circuted the device she spoke into.

Diary of Candace Keller
Diary of Candace Keller is a note that isn't found in the normal game. It is only found through the console.

Since there are three skeletons and one Glowing One in the shelter, but there were four people (one for each number), this note suggests that the Glowing One is the father, ghoulified by the radiation from his forays.
