"Moribund World"

Civilized? You think you're civilized because you live in the burnt-out ruins of a beforetime town? Tell me something else.

Chosen One to Maida Buckner

Klamath is a town upon the remains of Klamath Falls, located in southern Oregon.

BackgroundEdit

Klamath is a small town not far from Arroyo. Gecko trappers come to Klamath to sell their catch and blow off a bit of steam in the local bars and the "bath" house.[1]

It is a small community of trappers that hunt the giant, mutant lizards called little geckos in the area. Highly prized for their pelts, especially golden geckos, they are the lifeblood of this small community. Klamath is the stopping point for caravans on their way to the tiny tribal villages to the north like Arroyo, and also serves as a place where members of those tribes can come and exchange information, goods, and news about the larger world.

Around 2241 the city was plagued by rats, Vic the trader, who lives in Klamath has been captured by Metzger and an Enclave vertibird crashed in Klamath Canyon due to a rotor malfunction. The Chosen One visited Klamath and made them a little more exciting for some time. By 2281, Klamath was one of the states of the New California Republic.

LocationEdit

Klamath can be found four squares east of Arroyo.

LayoutEdit

Klamath is divided into four districts, one caves section and one outside section.

Klamath DowntownEdit

Downtown is the eastern part of Klamath. It is a mix of agricultural, residential and commercial uses. Plenty of Klamath's citizens can be found wandering around or visiting the two pubs. Aldo will be ready to greet you when you arrive here.

Trapper TownEdit

Main article: Trapper Town

Trapper Town is the western part of Klamath, where the gecko trappers reside. Slim Picket is the top dog in this town, although doesn't really have much to say, other than asking your help with a vermin problem. Underneath the Trapper Town stretch the infamous Rat Caves.

Klamath CanyonEdit

Some kind of evil spirit

A Vertibird has burrowed its way into the dirt here. Its passengers are dead and an evil spirit haunts the area. What the Chosen One believes is an evil spirit is actually just a malfunctioning Mister Handy, sustaining damage from the crash.

Trapping GroundsEdit

One moonshine and many geckos
Main article: Trapping Grounds

This area is found on the lower right of the entrance of Klamath. This is where Whiskey Bob's moonshine is, and the habitual hunting ground for gecko trappers, populated with a large number of golden and normal geckos.

Rat CavesEdit

NotesEdit

  • Klamath Bob, who appears in Fallout: New Vegas, comes from here. He claims that the town was boring, except for the time that a tribal came for a visit.
  • Daisy Whitman, who also appears in Fallout: New Vegas, mentions that she once crashed a Vertibird over Klamath, the only vertibird she had ever crashed, saying the cause was a rotor malfunction.
  • Lily's Vertibird Blade was said to have been recovered from the crashed Vertibird here. According to her, it was scavenged with the help of Leo.
  • When first entering Klamath, your reputation improves to Accepted.
  • There is no cutscene of Klamath in Fallout 2 endings.
  • The background music is Moribund World, which has been originally used for Fallout world map.

AppearancesEdit

Klamath appears in Fallout 2. However, while not appearing in-game, Klamath is also mentioned by Klamath Bob, Daisy Whitman and Lily Bowen in Fallout: New Vegas.

Behind the scenesEdit

  • The faces on the Klamath map are identical to a WWII "crop corps" poster promoting people to farm to help feed soldiers.

BugsEdit

  • If the player kills a brahmin in Klamath Downtown, the game will end when the Chosen One leaves the city. This is because the brahmins in Klamath use the script of the brahmins in Arroyo, causing the same effect if you kill the brahmin in Arroyo. [verified]
