New Reno

A large city in Fallout 2, New Reno is known for its casinos, such as the Shark Club and the Desperado. It is home to, among many other things, the Golden Globes studio, the Jungle Gym, prizefighter ring, and the Cat's Paw brothel. The town is currently run by four different families, the Mordinos, the Bishops, the Wrights, and the Salvatores, all of which are willing to make The Chosen One a Made Man in exchange for a little help. The Las Vegas of the wastes, if you will.

Reno was spared the atomic fire of the Great War, but with the destruction of the rest of the United States, law and order broke down as mobster families ascended to power. To this day, New Reno has no official government or police force. However, aside from their internecine conflicts, the families generally keep order and make the city safe for tourists from the wastes, sending any trouble makers who disrupt the tourist trade to Golgotha, a burial site near New Reno. The tourists are glad to partake of the gambling, prostitution, and drugs (particularly jet, which was developed near New Reno in the Stables by boy-genius Myron) offered by the city's mobsters. New Reno, lead by the Mordino family, is scheming to take over Redding, primarily by addicting Redding's miners to jet en masse.
