The Cathedral

The Cathedral is a major location in Fallout. To the outside world, the cathedral is nothing more then an innocent set up for the Children of the Cathedral organization, which tries to bring love and peace to the wastes. Below it, however, lies a secret underground Vault (more specifically, the Los Angeles Vault), which serves as a home and base for the Master.

The Los Angeles Vault was a demonstration Vault built by Vault-Tec to advertise its series of fallout shelters. As such, it was not part of the Vault Experiment and was never assigned a number. When the Great War started, many people took shelter in this Vault, and eventually emerged in 2092, founding the Boneyard.

In 2155, the Master learned the location of the Boneyard Vault. He conquered the inhabitants and set up operations there, and the human cultists began to use the Vault as their powerbase. Eventually, a monumental building known as the Cathedral was constructed above the Vault. The Cultists thus became known as the Children of the Cathedral.

The Cathedral was destroyed in 2162 either by a man known as the Vault Dweller or by the Master himself, when he learned that his super mutants were sterile.

The Cathedral was composed of a large chapel on the first floor where Father Lasher resided in his private cell.The upper levels where guarded by nightkin while the uppermost spire housed Father Morpheus. The basement of the Cathedral appeared an unassuming library with hidden access to the LA vault.
