The wasteland gypsy village is an unmarked location in Fallout 3, north of the Jalbert Brothers Waste Disposal. There are four shack buildings in total, three of which can be entered.
Layout
The village is a mishmash of rusted shacks and derelict vehicles. The four main buildings are situated in a rough diamond shape with two withered trees and a couple of scattered shelters that appear slapped together with scrap metal and wood beams. The southern most edge of the village is protected by a steep cliff and there is an inaccessible boarded up shelter door, suggesting the site might have once been a mine or crudely fashioned fallout shelter for the gypsy villagers.
Inhabitants
A band of six hostile ghoul wastelanders inhabit this shantytown, five of which will immediately attack anyone detected in the area, and a sixth who skulks about inside the northern shack. It seems that this was once a settlement that was either overrun by a band of ghoul wastelanders or perhaps the citizens themselves turned into ghouls, as the shacks are located within close proximity to Jalbert Brothers Waste Disposal (which is highly irradiated). One shack shows signs of a struggle, however, with a pile of skeletal remains behind a barricade of tables. It may also be a group of ghouls who set up shelter so they wouldn't be discriminated against by humans.
Notable loot
Northern shack
- Tales of a Junktown Jerky Vendor and a Stealth Boy are located on top of a desk in the northwestern area of the room.
Southeastern shack
- Duck and Cover! and a mini nuke can be found on the floor along the northern wall.
Southwestern shack
- Tumblers Today laying openly inside a doorless refrigerator found laying on its back outside the southern side of the shack.
Notes
- The shacks, like many indoor locations with beds, can be used as player housing.
- Due to the lack of fortifications, level dependent hostile wasteland creatures often find their way into the village and skirmish with the resident ghouls.
- To the far south east is the Pylon Shack, which contains the Keller family transcript 1 of 5, a mini nuke, and a range of other loot.
- South of the camp and just up the hill there is an overturned truck. Nearby is a Nuka-Cola Quantum.
- In the shack with the combat shotgun, there is a bathtub with a skeleton in it with a toaster lying between its legs, suggesting that they committed suicide by electrocution.
Appearances
Wasteland gypsy village appears only in Fallout 3.
Bugs
In the broken bus in the middle of the shacks is a camera and small burned book which cannot be picked up. In addition, upon trying to pick them up they may fall through the bus.
