Early that year, raiders attacked the town, resulting in the death of the 14 year old Colin Moriarty's father. After the raid, Moriarty inherited his father's wealth and his bar, Moriarty's Saloon. Over the course of a couple months, the residents of the town built the walls out of necessity; aircraft debris from an air station a few miles from the crater was the only material that remained and was readily available.
That is not to say a lot of other people felt it was best to not disturb it; it was not hurting anything and it could have adverse effects if transferred to another location. In February , an expeditionary party of Vault , led by Anne Palmer and sent by the Overseer of the Vault , made contact with the residents of Megaton. Initially, the locals were cautious of the strangers before eventually accepting and welcoming them into their settlement.
Palmer appointed two vault residents, Agnes Taylor and Lewis , as vault ambassadors to Megaton. By the time of the expedition, the front gate of Megaton had been completed. In , space is limited in the town, forcing many residents to live in the common house, a building that would usually be reserved for meetings and voting. Moriarty has a line on everything that happens in Megaton and it all eventually gets back to him. In early , a gang of raiders occupied nearby Springvale Elementary School , intending to tunnel from the school basement into Vault A group, led by Boppo , staged a raid on Megaton, but the attack was foiled when Boppo was shot in the head and killed by Lucas Simms.
The raiders did not leave the area, though, choosing to remain at the Springvale School. Their mining operation stopped when they opened a nest of giant ants. In the years following Lyons' Brotherhood's victory over the Enclave and recapture of Project Purity, Megaton prospered immensely. Following the death of Sheriff Lucas Simms , his son Harden took on the role. Moira Brown published and distributed her Wasteland Survival Guide across the expanse of the American wasteland by way of traveling caravans.
By October 10, , Brown was working on a new book, a compilation of "the best and most useful tales of the Lone Wanderer for the next generation.
The city of Megaton has been built in a steep-walled crater around an undetonated atomic bomb which rests in a small puddle of radioactive water at the bottom of the depression. This gives the city two roughly circular levels centered on the bomb.
If a visitor follows the entry path to the bottom of the depression, the Megaton Clinic will be on their right and The Brass Lantern on their left. Just past the bomb to the right is the Church of the Children of Atom and past it to the left lies Mister Burke's house.
Confessor Cromwell can usually be found here sermonizing from the puddle to random settlers. If they turn right when they first enter so that they are still on the lip of the crater, the "path" will take them past Lucas Simms' house , around the water processing plant , down to Craterside Supply , then back up to the Men's restroom , Moriarty's Saloon and Billy Creel's house. Going down the ramp from there will take them around Nathan and Manya's house a bus and to the Women's restroom.
Craterside Supply can also be easily reached by taking the ramp directly to the right of the Megaton Clinic. When one turns left at the upper lip, they'll find a locked house which can be acquired by the player if they deactivate the central atomic bomb , followed by Jericho 's house. From there, going down will take them to Lucy West's house while going around to the left will get them to the end of the right hand path.
The Megaton armory very hard lock can be reached by going up the ramp and around the Church of the Children of Atom to the right or by going down the hill starting from the back door of Moriarty's Saloon. There are strong enemies inside. Prepare with strong weapons and armor before entering.
The common house can be reached by going around the Women's restroom to the right or by passing behind Moriarty's Saloon rather than going around the front past the entrance to the Men's restroom. In front of the city, outside the walls, there's a caravan stop, Micky the water beggar , and Deputy Weld. Behind the city, near the south west corner is the hollowed-out rock. If player revisits Megaton after blowing it up in The Power of the Atom quest, Deputy Weld's head with an orange or purple eye will be nearby, sticking out of a pile of debris.
He says, ironically, "Welcome to Megaton. The bomb is perfectly safe. We promise. Please hold," in a garbled voice that sounds broken.
The sky will be green, and, if the player started the Wasteland Survival Guide quest, Moira Brown will survive as a ghoul and appear to tell them that she is relocating to Rivet City.
With 28 named inhabitants, ten unnamed Megaton settlers , and four Children of the Atom , it is surpassed only by Rivet City in terms of population. Megaton's crater was first settled by a large group of people who either worshiped the undetonated bomb or sought shelter in Vault , but was denied access because the vault dwellers were not allowed to leave or let anyone in as part of the vault's experiment.
Locked out of the vault, these settlers, including Manya Vargas ' great grandfather, simply settled into the crater for protection against dust storms. After the storms died down, some people began to wander the wastes but would return to the crater to trade their scavenged goods.
A generation later, the crater had turned into a full-on trade hub. Construction on the wall started in Early that year, raiders attacked the town, resulting in the death of the year-old Colin Moriarty 's father.
After the raid, Moriarty inherited his father's wealth and his bar, Moriarty's Saloon. Over the course of a couple of months, the residents of the town built the walls out of necessity; aircraft debris from an air station a few miles from the crater was the only material that remained and was readily available. That is not to say a lot of other people felt it was best to not disturb it; it was not hurting anything and it could have adverse effects if transferred to another location.
The bomber is what caused the crater and supplied some of the first materials for Megaton's wall. In February , an expeditionary party of Vault , led by Anne Palmer and sent by the overseer of the vault , made contact with the residents of Megaton. Initially, the locals were cautious of the strangers before eventually accepting and welcoming them into their settlement.

The raiders did not leave the area, though, choosing to remain at the Springvale School in order to dig a tunnel into Vault Their mining operation stopped when they opened a nest of giant ants.
The same year, Vault would open, and the Lone Wanderer would stop in Megaton in search of their father James, who himself earlier had come through the town during his own exodus. In the years following Lyons' Brotherhood's victory over the Enclave and recapture of Project Purity, Megaton prospered immensely.

Turning right immediately upon entering and following the lip of the crater counter-clockwise will lead past Lucas Simms' house , around the water processing plant , down to Craterside Supply , then back up to the men's restroom , Moriarty's Saloon and Billy Creel's house. Going down the ramp from there will lead around Nathan and Manya's house a blue bus and to the women's restroom.
Craterside Supply can also be easily reached by taking the ramp directly to the right of the Megaton clinic. Turning left instead of right at the upper lip will lead to a locked house which is a reward from Lucas Simms for deactivating the central atomic bomb and will subsequently be renamed My Megaton house , followed by Jericho's house.
From there, going down will lead to Lucy West's house while going around to the left will lead to the end of the righthand path. The Megaton armory , only accessible by either picking the very hard lock or with Lucas Simm's key , can be reached by going up the ramp and around the Church of the Children of Atom to the right or by going down the hill starting from the back door of Moriarty's Saloon. Inside, the player character will face a strong opponent, Deputy Steel , a unique Mister Gutsy.
The common house can be reached by going around the women's restroom to the right or passing behind Moriarty's Saloon rather than going around the front past the entrance to the men's restroom.
Just look for the couch sitting outside. In front of the city, outside the walls, is a caravan stop; Micky the water beggar; and Deputy Weld. Behind the city, near the southwest corner, between a group of three scorched trees is the hollowed-out rock. Revisiting Megaton's ruins after blowing it up in The Power of the Atom , the Lone Wanderer will find Deputy Weld's head with an orange or purple eye nearby, sticking out of a pile of debris.
Not more than 20 yards away is a full service bar, where Megatonians are often found sitting and spending their bottle cap currency. It doesn't take a nuclear physics degree to know that settling in the immediate vicinity of an atomic bomb is a bad idea. In fact, it turns out to be an extremely bad idea if the player decides to indulge the wishes of affluent Allistair Tenpenny by detonating the bomb in order to rid the scrapheap city from Mr.
Tenpenny's penthouse view. Even without the threat of someone setting it off, it seems like an obvious place wastelanders would want to avoid, yet it became one of the largest settlements in Fallout 3. Happenstance has a larger part to play than anything else in Megaton's incorporation.
