3. The Tale Of Richard Moreau
Interplay EntertainmentOriginally a doctor of Vault 8, Richard Moreau would one day become one of the most hideous, powerful forces in the world of Fallout. After being exiled from his vault for murder, he came across a military base, where he accidentally fell into a vat of Forced Evolutionary Virus. Assumed dead by his companions, Moreau floated in the vats for weeks, transforming into a repulsive blob-like being. In his new form, Moreau was able to absorb people and other creatures that approached the base, and even merged with the facility's computers. After merging with countless biological beings, Moreau began to form the idea of a unified Wasteland, by forcing humans to become transformed into super mutants by the FEV virus. Eventually, Moreau became known by a different name: The Master. For years he led the super mutants on a campaign of terror, eventually defeated by the player-controlled Vault Dweller in the events of Fallout.
