Paradise Falls

Paradise Falls was a converted strip style shopping mall, and now it is the main haven for all slaver activity in the Capital Wasteland, with ties to further slave trade in The Pitt. It is a constant source of fear for many of the wasteland denizens.

Background
According to Herbert Dashwood's computer, Paradise Falls' former slaver leaders include Penelope Chase, and Harmon Jurley. Harmon Jurley was the leader of Paradise Falls around 2250.

In the year 2277, Paradise Falls is led by Eulogy Jones who regulates the purchase and selling of slaves.

Paradise Falls is guarded by and serves as a home to a cadre of battle-hardened, slavers that have no aversion to the profitable business of slavery. The inhabitants of Paradise Falls are infamous for their incursions into Big Town, and on rare occasions, into Little Lamplight. The slavers are also known to seize random wastelanders, and the town is frequently mentioned on the Herbert Dashwood program on Galaxy News Radio.

Paradise Falls can be found by traveling almost directly north from Vault 101, Arefu, or Vault 106. It is located to the west of Minefield, and is recognizable from a distance by its most prominent landmark, a gigantic statue of a Big Boy esque mascot holding an ice cream cone.

Layout
Paradise Falls is a roughly square strip mall style compound, protected by walls of stacked derelict vehicles. The few buildings that are still in use have been converted a bit to suit the slaver's needs.

Once the Lone wanderer enters, through city bus gate, they can follow a path to the right into the compound.

On the left of the immediate entrance is a weapons shop, Lock and Load, and to the right is Cutter's Clinic. Once in the "main area', on the right is a make shift bar and grill. To the left is Eulogy's Pad, a converted movie theater. Farther in are the slave pens, and just to the right of those, a single-person fallout protection booth that has been refitted into a cruel holding cell called "The Box".

Gaining entrance

 * Low karma.
 * Speech check and a bribe of 500 caps in return for entry.
 * Accept the Strictly Business quest and capture at least one of the four VIPs.
 * Complete the Head of State quest in favor of the slavers.
 * Fight or sneak your way in.

Slaves

 * Crimson and Clover, personal slaves of Eulogy Jones.
 * Bronson, Miss Jeanette, Bleak, and Breadbox in the adult's slave pen.
 * Sammy, Squirrel, and Penny from Little Lamplight, in the children's slave pen.
 * Rory Maclaren, in 'The Box'.
 * Carter (running away for a very short time, first arrived at Paradise Falls and he gets his head blown off)
 * Frank (half-slave; bartender. Also is killed).
 * Any slaves (ex. Flak, Red, Susan Lancaster, and Arkansas) that you have captured.
 * Although they are not the targeted slaves, after admittance, you can "mezz" raiders, Enclave personnel and Wastelanders with the Mesmetron and send them as slaves to Paradise Falls, whereupon you will get paid for each that survive the trip.

Notable loot

 * Bobblehead - Speech - in Eulogy's Pad, on the table next to the terminal (taking it does NOT count as theft).
 * 1 pre-War book - on a table in the slave house.
 * 5 Nuka-Cola Quantums, which must be stolen - in Eulogy's Pad, under the stairs.
 * Vault 77 jumpsuit - on a shelf inside the slaver barracks, along with a holodisk named Burn this goddamn jumpsuit.
 * The Break - a pool cue that is a unique weapon on the pool table just outside Eulogy's Pad.
 * Eulogy Jones's hat - +1 Charisma when worn, on projector table inside Eulogy's Pad (must be stolen).
 * Paradise Falls box key - on a table near Eulogy's heart-shaped bed.

Appearances
Paradise Falls appears only in Fallout 3.

Behind the scenes

 * The Vault 77 jumpsuit is a reference to the Penny Arcade comic commissioned by Bethesda Studios and on display at their website.
 * The "Ice Cream Boy" statue may be designed after the Big Boy statue.
 * On the pool table in the Paradise Falls Barracks, the glasses are set up to play beer pong, a popular drinking game.
 * Crimson and Clover, the two slave girls, get their names from the song "Crimson and Clover" by Tommy James and the Shondells.
 * In the concept art of Paradise Falls, there are slavers standing over a dead Brotherhood of Steel soldier. The soldier in Paradise Falls is not seen in game.
 * The Preservation Chamber entitled "The Box" is likely a reference to the film Cool Hand Luke starting Paul Newman, prisoners (slaves) who misbehaved would "Spend the night in the Box".
 * One of the prisoners is overheard saying "ain't nobody can eat fifty eggs.", which is a reference to Cool Hand Luke.

Bugs

 * When you enter Paradise Falls for the first time the skulls on the power-lines will fall to the ground. You only see it happen once.
 * After killing Cutter, when you open locked first aid box or desk with Cutter's key, you hear the sound "You just can't take that" even though Cutter is dead.
 * It is possible for all of the town's slavers to go hostile for no apparent reason (none had been killed, etc.). This problem may occur if you entered Paradise Falls using your speech skill or negative karma when talking to Grouse, instead of doing the quest "Strictly Business". If you enslave just 1 of the 4 targets Grouse gives you, this issue should then be fixed.
 * Grouse will attack Fawkes even if you gain access to Paradise Falls even after enslaving 1 of the four VIP targets.
 * Instead of taking just one loading screen to enter Paradise Falls, it takes two loading screens, despite that there is only one entrance.
 * Rory Maclaren may be dead upon interacting with 'The Box', even before you free any of the slaves making it impossible to free him.
 * As mentioned above, if you free Arkansas after enslaving him, he will still have his sniper rifle in his inventory and immediately turn hostile to all the other freed slaves.
