Thomas Eckhart

Thomas Eckhart was the United States Secretary of Agriculture and a leading member of the Enclave at the time of the Great War. After losing contact with Enclave command, he installed himself as "President" of the Appalachian branch, but was overthrown by his own soldiers and eventually killed by MODUS.

Background
Thomas Eckhart survived the conflict in the congressional bunker in West Virginia. With contact lost with Control Station ENCLAVE and Enclave leadership due to a damaged communications array, Eckhart assumed control of the Enclave forces at the congressional bunker and manipulated automated voting systems in Appalachia to make himself the nominal President of the United States from 2083 until his death in 2086.

Eckhart's obsessive focus on eradicating communism caused him to make increasingly unethical decisions for the sake of accumulating power and raising the DEFCON level to activate Appalachia's dormant automated nuclear silos, resulting in his own soldiers revolting and imprisoning him. He and all other human inhabitants of the congressional bunker suffocated to death in 2086, after MODUS released a toxin into the air circulation system in retaliation for the rebelling soldiers attempting to destroy its databanks.

Appearances
Thomas Eckhart is mentioned only in Fallout 76.
