Forum:Let's Chat: The Vaults

I'm going to write these from time to time, just to get other people's opinions on certain things. Today; the Vaults.

Please excuse my questions, as I've not ventured into ALL of the DC Area Vaults ingame, so some of these questions might be answered.

For anyone who doesn't feel like reading my small, story-like notes before each question, skip to the bolded parts.

Vault-Tec built the numerous Vaults to keep american Citizens safe before-during-and after nuclear wartime. What they did not expect, is for a Vault to be directly attacked. What if the Chinese HAD chosen a direct, invasion-like attack after the bombs hit. And, for the first question:

'''Could they get in? Would a bomb destroy (or at least open up) a Vault?'''

We all know about Vault 101, and it's 2 insane Overseers. what we don't know, however, is how they were chosen, why they were chosen, and from what criteria they were chosen.

well thay pick the 1st overseer for the vault from the vault teck manegers or something like that, and then it just stays in the familyMrDot01 00:08, August 3, 2010 (UTC)

So, the second question is:

Who chose the Overseers, Why did they choose those people, and what are the skills (other than leadership) needed to become an Overseer?

Lastly, I ask a story-less question:

Could you keep your sanity (and not obtain VDS (Vault Depressive Syndrome)) in a Vault for a prolonged, life-time period of time? i think you could (well the ones that 1st whent in the vaults but not the ones that were little when thay whent in or the ones born there MrDot01 00:08, August 3, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for reading (if you chose to) and answer the questions in a 1,2,3 format if you feel like it. This was InceptionPrime 22:38, August 2, 2010 (UTC), and I bid you farewell.
 * I think i'm answering your second question. might be your first.. How the Overseers were chosen: You see kiddies, Vault-Tec was created with the image of saving people and producing technology. But the US government controlled VT, and what they were really doing was testing people. One vault's door was created so that it would malfunction, letting in radiation, killing or ghoulifying everyone. Some, like Vault 77, were made to test people's sanity. Some were created with the goal of Never opening. Vault 101 was made to see how well people could create a society in the vault, probably in hopes of rebuilding America's society after they leave the vaults. I'm pretty sure good ol' Uncle Sam gave Vault 101 orders to put the craziest, most controlling, most non-black looking guy in charge of that society. (the Overseer, not Obama. i like Obama.)
