Underworld

Underworld is an area where the ostracized sapient ghouls (as opposed to their feral brethren) of Washington, DC live. It is located inside the Museum of American History, and exists as a small city, complete with a bar, inn, clinic, and "stylist."

Most humans are tolerated, as long as they do not cause trouble. The Brotherhood of Steel are not welcome, however, as they tend to shoot Ghouls on sight.

Background
The museum was featuring an exhibit on the mythology of Hell and the afterlife during the time of the Great War, as most of the remaining exhibits (including the name of that section of the Museum as well) are all themed as such.

Layout
Underworld is reached through the double doors under the big skull in the Museum of American History. Griffon will set up his Aqua Cura sham outside if Take it Back! has been completed.

When you first enter, you'll be standing in front of the main hallway. Underworld Outfitters is in a room on the left side of the hallway, Winthrop's office is directly opposite. The doors in the back lead to The Chop Shop.

Heading up either set of stairs will take you to the overlook. The Ninth Circle is on the left side, from the main entrance, Carol's Place on the right. In the large room at the end of the overlook, Moira Brown will be selling her junk (if you destroyed Megaton), and Snowflake will be hounding you for a haircut.

Behind the scenes

 * The large ruined painting on the second floor of the Concourse is "Dante and Virgil in Hell" by William-Adolphe Bouguereau.


 * The entrance to Underworld is probably a homage to the 80s cartoon 'He-Man and the Masters of The Universe'. It looks remarkably similar to the cartoon's Castle Greyskull, complete with the towers at the sides and the skull in the middle
