Fallout Shelter characters

This page lists all .

Gameplay
Characters within the game range from enemies such as raiders to vault inhabitants known as Dwellers.

Rare and legendary dwellers are found in lunchboxes. Legendary dwellers arrive wearing a legendary outfit and a rare weapon. Rare and Legendary dwellers keep their outfit when entering the vault, rather than immediately switching to a vault suit.

There are 23 legendary dwellers to collect. Legendary dwellers are named after characters from Fallout 3 and Fallout 4. Legendary dwellers are found randomly through opening lunchboxes. Rare dwellers have a total sum of 29 SPECIAL points, with the exception of 3 preset dwellers. Legendary dwellers have a total sum of 40 SPECIAL points.

Rare and legendary dwellers are not unique. A vault can have multiple rare and legendary dwellers of the same name. All rare and legendary dweller cards are equally likely to be found in a lunchbox, regardless of whether any rare and legendary dwellers are already in the vault.

Some legendary dwellers, such as Sarah Lyons, Three Dog and Preston Garvey, can be obtained by completing their respective quests from the Overseer's office.

Rare Dwellers can also appear randomly at your Vault Door though the chances of this happening are very low, Rare Dwellers usually do not carry weapons when you reveal their card, but if you buy the Vault Starter pack in Fallout Shelter on iOS or Google play store the two Rare Dwellers you get will have weapons.

Rare Dwellers also have randomized skins, hair and names. There are also 20 preset rare dwellers in the game files that cannot be found in lunchboxes or quests.
