Vault 21

 is a Vault-Tec Vault, that was once hidden under Las Vegas, Nevada. It has since been converted into a hotel/casino.

Background
Its purpose in the Vault Experiment was gambling, reinforced by having only compulsive gamblers admitted as Vault residents, and all conflicts within the Vault were solved through gambling. Mitchell and Sarah come from here. At some point, Mr. House decided he wanted to own Vault 21, so he bet for it. He won, filled most of the vault with concrete, and converted it into a hotel/casino.

Layout
The Vault has been converted into another casino and hotel. The Vault is actually advertised with a big sign, unlike all the rest. Its supposed Overseer is Mr. House. It is a large maze of tunnels that is built around a central atrium. This Vault does not apear to have an Overseer's office, and it's lower levels are filled with concrete. It is accesed by a small building which contains the Vault 21 gift shop, run by the only native resident to have remained, Sarah, with stairs down into the Vault in a back room. Oddly, Vault 21 does not appear to have a main cog door, although its main entrance may have been located in an inaccessable area.

Appearances
Vault 21 only appears in Fallout: New Vegas.

Behind the scenes
Vault 21 is a reference to the card game "Blackjack", where a player has to have the highest sum of card numbers without going over 21.
