The Destruction of Raven Rock was the Capital Wasteland Brotherhood of Steel's obliteration of the Raven Rock Mountain Complex, which had served as the headquarters of the Enclave. It was conducted either by the Lone Wanderer on the Brotherhood’s behalf or by an assault team led by the Lyons' Pride and Liberty Prime in the year 2277.
Lone Wanderer's infiltration[]
Prelude[]
Following the capture of Project Purity by the Enclave, the Lone Wanderer discovered that Vault 87 held a G.E.C.K. and set out to retrieve it; the Enclave tracked their every move and incapacitated them with a concussion grenade as they attempted to exit the vault. Having confiscated the G.E.C.K., Colonel Autumn and his team transported the Lone Wanderer back to Raven Rock.
When the Lone Wanderer awoke, restrained in a photonic resonance chamber, Autumn began to interrogate them. The Lone Wanderer refused to give Autumn the code for the purifier before John Henry Eden intervened to prevent Autumn from torturing them. Autumn was ordered to report to Eden's office, and the Lone Wanderer was left alone with Eden on the intercom.
Eden unlocked the Lone Wanderer’s restraints and instructed them to report his office. However, minutes later, Autumn ordered all personnel to ignore the president's previous directive and shoot the Lone Wanderer on sight.
Making their way through the complex, the Lone Wanderer ultimately reached Eden’s office and was faced with the decision of whether or not to ensure the complex’s destruction during their escape.
Lone Wanderer’s sabotage (determinant)[]
Sabotage[]
While making their way through the complex, the Lone Wanderer could have found Eden's self-destruct codes in Autumn’s room. Upon reaching Eden's office, the Lone Wanderer learned of his plans and had a discussion with him. Either by using the self-destruct sequence, convincing Eden to end the Enclave, or exploiting a loophole in Eden's internal logic system to put the base on self-destruct, the Lone Wanderer ensured the destruction of the base.
After taking the vial of Modified FEV, the Lone Wanderer departed as the complex began to detonate. Moments later, the entire base was obliterated by dozens of massive explosions, burying it under tons of rubble and stone. Several fleeing vertibirds were caught in the explosion and crashed while others were able to escape to an unknown fate.
Aftermath[]
The Enclave were left with no standing base of operations and instead adopted the Adams Air Force Base as a replacement while Colonel Autumn and the troops at the Jefferson Memorial made a final stand.
Liberty Prime's assault (determinant)[]
Prelude[]
Provided the Lone Wanderer had not already destroyed the base during their escape, Liberty Prime escorted the Lyons' Pride to the base across the Capital Wasteland following the Battle of Project Purity.
Battle[]
Upon arrival, Liberty Prime annihilated the complex, ensuring the base’s complete and utter destruction.
Aftermath[]
The Enclave were left with no standing base of operations and instead adopted the Adams Air Force Base as a replacement following the Battle of Project Purity.
Appearances[]
The Destruction of Raven Rock occurs either in Fallout 3 or in the add-on Broken Steel.
