Fallout: The Animated Series/Character List

Fallout: The Animated Series features a large cast of characters, nearly all of which are based off of characters from the original Fallout, its spin-offs Fallout Tactics and Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel, or its sequel Fallout 2. A notable advertising campaign on the show's promotional website is that each character is given their own unique S.P.E.C.I.A.L. stats in lieu of the games.

Vault Dwellers
The term Vault Dwellers refers to the central three main protagonists of the series, a trio of volunteers from Vault 13 who set out into the wasteland in order to locate a replacement Water Chip to save the vault's populace. They are based upon the three pre-made selectable characters from the original Fallout.

Albert Cole
The leader of the trio, Albert Cole was the leader of the group of denizens of Vault 13 interested in life outside the vault and Vault 13's "lawyer". A charismatic schemer, he would frequently start riots and manipulate people in agreeing with him using his intelligence and skills with words, which would often result in him being thrown into the vault jail. Due to them frequently being the only two people in the jail, he developed a friendship with Natalia Dubrovhsky. When Overseer Jacoren announced the failure of Vault 13's water chip and that a replacement would need to be found outside the vault, Albert was the first to volunteer to venture out.

Albert is a manipulative, intelligent, charming, confident and social individual. Physically the weakest of the main three, he is adverse to combat and will typically attempt to solve issues by negotiation, often helping the party out of potential encounters but rendering him near useless in situations where a enemy cannot be reasoned with, such as against wild animals or raiders.

Natalia Dubrovhsky
The great-grandaughter of a Russian diplomat amongst the Soviet Consulate and thus the only individual in Vault 13 to not be of entirely American descent, Natalia Dubrovhsky was infamous amongst the vault due to her kleptomania and thrill-seeking habits, often stealing from other people simply for the thrill of it. These habits often resulted in her being thrown into the vault jail, which led to her meeting and befriending Albert Cole, with the duo often being the only people in the jail. Interested in life outside the vault, she volunteered alongside Albert to venture outside the vault, agreeing to take their friend Max Stone with them.

Natalia is a intelligent, resourceful, logical, impatient, and forceful character. A talented acrobat with enhanced reflexes and co-ordination, in combat she often uses the environment to her advantage, such as running along surfaces and in complex patterns to confuse enemies or luring them into traps. She is physically stronger than Albert, but not as much as Max.

Max Stone
Strongely implied to be in some way mutated, Mawell "Max" Stone was notable for being the largest baby born in Vault 13, possessing near-superhuman strength, stamina and endurance but unfortunatly being born mentally handicapped, possessing the mental capabilities of a young child. Due to his physical capabilities, he was often stationed as a guard for the vault jail, where he met and befriended Albert Cole and Natalia Dubrovhsky. Due to their friendship and the duo's charisma, he would often simply let them out, which frequently led to him getting into trouble with his superiors, although he was never punished due to their understanding of his mental issues. When Alberta and Natalia both volunteered to find the water chip, Max, who did not care whether or not he had to leave the vault, agreed to accompany them. While he is a gentle and kind-hearted child-like person, Max becomes extremely violent and aggressive when his friends are endangered. In combat, he primarily relies upon brute force and the usage of melee weaponry, being physically strong enough to push cars and break down doors with his bare hands. His combat style lacks finesse, and instead relies upon constant and powerful physical attacks.
