Deep in the heart of the irradiated wasteland lies Vault 47, a site cloaked in eerie legends whispered across survivor camps. Built as part of Vault-Tec’s grand experiments, Vault 47’s objective was simple yet sinister: to push the boundaries of bio-luminescent algae to produce food and light in total isolation.
For years, the residents thrived in an emerald glow, their every need sustained by the vibrant algae. But the experiment came at a cost. The algae mutated, releasing spores that crept into the Vault’s ventilation system. The once-thriving population was consumed by an illness that left their skin translucent and their veins pulsating with a faint, green light. They became “The Glowborn,” ghostly figures haunting the vault’s depths.
Today, the Vault door stands ajar, a faint green light spilling into the decayed world outside. Scavengers seeking rare tech venture inside, only to vanish without a trace. Stories tell of whispers in the dark and glowing hands reaching from the shadows. Some claim the Glowborn guard the secrets of Vault 47, while others believe they are pleading for salvation from their cursed fate.
Yet, for all its horrors, rumors persist of untold riches and advanced pre-war technology hidden within Vault 47. Wanderers often gaze at its haunting light from afar, weighing their courage against the mystery. But in the Wasteland, some doors are best left closed.
