Mayor Chris Avellone

Chris Avellone is the Mayor of Springfield around 2195.

Background
Avellone, voted in as a political puppet, reached the mayor's seat after the previous mayor disappeared under suspicious circumstances. However, he took to his new power and started causing trouble. The mayor's political stance with the ghouls angered some of Springfield's far-right, human activists who refuse to acknowledge the "sub-humans" as near equals.

Interactions with the player character
In 2197, the Midwestern Brotherhood of Steel sent a squad to Springfield to protect Avellone from a plot to assassinate him. After the BOS squad rescued the mayor, he became quite the puppet official and the extra resources helped fuel the Brotherhood machine. He signed the "Bill of Monster Rights", which gave some limited rights to ghouls.

Behind the Scenes
It's quite obvious that this character was based on Interplay's game designer Chris Avellone, both in name and appearance.
