Elvis Presley

Elvis Aaron Presley was an extremely popular American singer of the 20th century. A cultural icon, he is widely known by the single name "Elvis." His lasting influence on music, spanning multiple genres but especially rock, also led him to be referred to as the "King of Rock and Roll" or simply "The King." As time had progressed from the Great War, Elvis is merely another semiotic ghost of American culture that is often referred to but, as the Kings exemplify, has been completely forgotten as a person.

Overview
Elvis, being a symbol of 1950's music and culture, is mentioned more than once in the Fallout series. Portraits of him can be found throughout the first and second Fallout games.

Elvis impersonators were a highly popular part of pre-War culture in Las Vegas; as such, his presence is more prominent in Fallout: New Vegas with references to his songs and movies in quest names as well as an entire gang known as The Kings who idolize Elvis and have styled themselves after him. The Kings themselves do not know of Elvis' name, which is why they simply called themselves the Kings.

The Enclave membership questionnaire at the Whitespring bunker in Fallout 76 lists Elvis as a possible answer to the question "Which of the following thinkers' belief systems most closely matches your own?" An exam at the Pioneer Scout camp, introduced in the Wild Appalachia update, lists Elvis as the correct answer to who the King of Rock and Roll was.

Appearances
Elvis Presley is mentioned in Fallout, Fallout 2, Fallout: New Vegas and in Fallout 76 and its Wild Appalachia update.
