J. Hendricks was the last overseer of the Vault 22 survivors in Zion Canyon in 2097.

Background[]

In February 2096, Hendricks left Vault 22 with 117 vault dwellers in an attempt to escape from an airborne fungal spore infestation that had proliferated in the vault. Arriving in Zion Canyon on February 11th, Hendricks and the others attacked a group of Mexican survivors who had already taken up residence in the canyon. The vault dwellers slaughtered all but a few (Elena, Carmen, and five of the children), who they captured so they could later eat them.[1][2]

Over the course of the following year, Randall Clark, a survivalist who lived in Zion and had witnessed the atrocities they committed, killed the vast majority of the group while constantly evading their attempts to find and kill him. With no way to know who was picking them off, Hendricks and the dwellers came to consider Clark as an "evil spirit" that is plaguing them, to the point of creating warnings on holotapes to dissuade others from residing in Zion.[1][2][3]

After losing six consecutive overseers and more than eighty members of the group to Clark's carnage and sickness, Hendricks, as the newly appointed and last overseer of the Vault 22 survivors, gave up and ordered the group to flee the canyon to parts unknown.[3]

Appearances[]

J. Hendricks is mentioned only in the Fallout: New Vegas add-on Honest Hearts.
