繼續發避難所系列啦
話說在11號避難所那篇的推文有人推薦《羊毛記》三部曲,說喜歡Vault的可以去看
我以前看過第一部,那時我還不知道Fallout是三小
不過我記得羊毛記第一部給我的印象是內容中規中矩,而封面封底的文案是超級詐騙
我在Sucknovels版還有發過關於這篇的吐文,不過封面封底文案的鍋應該要讓出版社揹
只不過如果羊毛記2和3跟1的水準差不多的話,那我會說那是劣化的文字版Vault
正史:Fallout 1/2/3/New Vegas/4,以及所有衍生漫畫
半正史:Fallout Tactics、Fallout Warfare、Official Fallout Game Guides

《Vault 15 15號避難所》(Fallout/Fallout 2)
http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Vault_15
Vault 15 is a location in New California in 2241.
15號避難所位於新加州。
Background 背景
Like many of the vaults, it was part of Vault-Tec's grand social experiment.
The Fallout Bible (by Fallout 2/Van Buren) says the experiment in this vault
entailed that it was to stay closed for fifty years, populated by vault
dwellers of extremely diverse ideologies and cultures. The situation caused
by the experiment led to a great schism, during which four groups ultimately
left the vault to brave the wastes during the spring of 2141. Three of these
groups became roving gangs of raiders: the Jackals, the Vipers, and the Khans
in the winter of the same year. The fourth group settled down a few miles
west of the vault and founded the village of Shady Sands in the spring of
2142.
15號避難所跟其他很多避難所一樣都是社會實驗的一部分。Fallout Bible/Fallout
2/Van Buren說這間避難所被設定封鎖50年,而且居民的思想和文化差異都極大。最後避
難所內部分裂成四個團體,並在2141年春天冒險開啟避難所大門踏進廢土。其中三個團體
變成結夥搶劫的強盜團體:狐狼、毒蛇和可汗,第四個團體則在隔年春天,離避難所西邊
幾里遠的地方建立了沙地小鎮。
While the three gangs harassed the village and each other over the years,
Vault 15 itself gradually fell into disrepair. By the time the Vault Dweller
came across it in his search for a replacement water chip for Vault 13, it
was already ransacked and had also undergone complete power failure, several
cave-ins, water damage, and other catastrophes. The intervening years has not
done anything to improve the vault, but they have brought new occupants. When
the Vault Dweller massacred the Khans in 2161, a sole survivor named Darion
was overcome with guilt because he alone had survived when the rest of the
gang died. Darion then spent the next 8 decades of his life rebuilding his
petty tribe to the once great gang that scoured the wastes, also out of
revenge against Tandi and the Vault Dweller. The result was the New Khans. A
small settlement of squatters has made its home at the entrance to Vault 15.
The squatters forge a precarious existence there by the sufferance of the
gang.
三個強盜團體除了騷擾沙地小鎮外還互相侵犯,而15號避難所就被丟著無人照管。當流亡
者來到此地來替13號避難所找淨水晶片時,此地早就被洗劫一空、沒水沒電、各種塌陷和
其他災難。流亡者來過後的幾年,15號避難所並沒有什麼改善,但卻有批新住民進住了。
當流亡者在2161年屠殺可汗幫時,有個名為Darion的人獨活下來,但他因此心中充滿罪惡
感。他在接下來的80年把這個瀕臨毀滅的幫派重建成席捲廢土的最大幫派之一.新可汗,
以向NCR(新加州共和國)的Tandi總統和流亡者復仇。此時有一小群人在15號避難所的入
口處定居,這群新住民在新可汗的默許之下成為了危險的存在(譯註:這句看不太懂)。
Shortly after, the squatters allowed Darion and the rest of the New Khans to
move into the vault itself on the condition that they repair the vault's
systems in order to help provide the squatters with food, water, and other
amenities. At first, this setup was advantageous enough that the squatters
rejected all efforts by the NCR to annex them or even gain simple access to
the vault.
不久後,新住民允許Darion和新可汗進去避難所修復裡面的系統,以提供他們食物、水和
其他東西。一開始他們幹的很不錯,使的新住民拒絕了NCR無論想兼併或僅僅想進去15號
避難所的任何努力。
Then, the Chosen One came along. President Tandi hired them to infiltrate
Vault 15 - or at least get the squatters to allow NCR access - to retrieve
computer parts and other equipment vital to the NCR's continued expansion.
While accomplishing this quest, he discovered the truth behind Darion's
operation; he and his men were actually a band of raiders calling themselves
the New Khans, using the vault as a base of operations towards Darion's goal
of revenge against Tandi and everything the Vault Dweller stood for. Also,
the food and water that he had been providing the squatters with didn't come
from the vault's systems after all, but the spoils from raids the New Khans
had been running along the wastes between NCR and Vault City.
然後,天選者出現了,Tandi總統請他潛入15號避難所─或只要幫NCR取得進入許可就好─
以替NCR取回他們繼續擴張所需的電腦零件和其他設備。在任務中,他發現Darion的真實
目的:新可汗要利用15號避難所作基地,以向Tandi和任何因流亡者而生的事物復仇。而
且他們提供給15號避難所新住民的食物和水也不是避難所本身出產,而是新可汗在NCR和
地下掩體市之間搶劫而來的贓物。
After Darion was killed by the descendant of the man he had sworn vengeance
against nearly eighty years earlier, that very same man brokered a deal with
the squatters, who accepted the NCR's assistance. With the support the Chosen
One secured from the New California Republic, the Vault 15 squatters soon
became self-sufficient and productive members of society. The Chosen One's
help with Vault 15 launched the New California Republic's push to civilize
its neighbors. Though there were many more obstacles to overcome, the NCR now
had a foothold into the northern wastes.
Darion被自己在將近80年前發誓要復仇對象的後代所殺,而這個人隨後跟15號避難所的新
住民交涉,使他們接受NCR的參與。隨著天選者帶來的NCR支援,15號避難所新住民成為能
自給自足還擁有生產能力的社會。天選者在15號避難所提供的幫助,使的NCR往鄰近地區
文明化的推力大為提昇。雖然還有很多障礙要克服,但他們現在在北方廢土已經有擴張的
基地了。

Due east from Vault 13, construction on this Vault has gone extremely
smoothly. Much work was done to reinforce the walls of the third level of
this Vault, to make all the future Vault Dwellers more secure in the
knowledge that in the event of even a major earthquake, the regulatory
computers of the Vault would continue to function. Recent tours of the newly
constructed Vault, have had many a potential Vault Dweller walking away with
a new found awe of the improvements done to this already impressive Vault.
這個位於13號避難所東邊的避難所,建造工程非常的順利。大部分工程都在加強避難所第
三層牆壁,以確保未來的居民即使遇到地震之類的天災,避難所電腦仍能正常運作。最近
前往這個新建避難所的旅遊,讓許多未來可能成為避難所居民的人邊在這個令人優秀的避
難所逛來逛去,邊對其進步感到驚嘆。

《Vault 17 17號避難所》(Fallout: New Vegas) (mentioned-only)
http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Vault_17
Vault 17 is one of the Vault-Tec vaults. The vault's original purpose in the
vault experiment is unknown. The vault is located somewhere in New
California, however, the exact location is also unknown.
17號避難所的實驗目的未知。其坐落地點位於新加州,但確切地點也未知。
Background 背景
The vault was raided in 2154 by the Master's Army, and its inhabitants were
taken prisoner and subsequently turned into super mutants.
17號避難所在2154年被主宰的軍隊攻陷,居民被虜獲並轉化成超級變種人。
Lillian Marie Bowen, Becky and Jimmy are the only known inhabitants of Vault
17. They lived in the Vault until Lily was 75 years old, at which time she
was captured by the Master's Army and turned into a nightkin.
Lillian “Lily” Marie Bowen、Becky和Jimmy是目前已知的17號避難所居民,他們住在
避難所直到Lily 75歲,然後她被主宰的軍隊抓去轉變成夜行者。

《Vault 19 19號避難所》(Fallout: New Vegas)
https://fallout.gamepedia.com/Vault_19
Vault 19 is one of the Vault-Tec vaults in the Mojave Wasteland. By 2281 the
vault has been abandoned by its original inhabitants, and is currently
occupied by Powder Gangers founder Samuel Cooke and his escaped convict
followers.
19號避難所位於莫哈維廢土,該避難所在2281年之前就被原居民放棄,後來被由Samuel
Cooke和他領導的逃脫罪犯組成的Powder Ganger佔領。
Background 背景
The inhabitants of Vault 19 were segregated into two different colored
sectors, red and blue, with limited contact between them. Vault 19 was unique
in that it had two overseers, one for the Red Sector, one for the Blue
Sector.
19號避難所的居民被分成兩個顏色,紅和藍,彼此之間只有很有限的溝通。19號避難所還
有個特別的地方,紅區和藍區都各有一個監督。
The main purpose of the vault's experiment was to induce paranoia through
non-chemical and non-violent means. Subliminal messaging may have been a
factor, as a child states on his terminal that he was hearing high-pitched
noises, and so were his friends. Many journal entries indicate levels of
paranoia, blaming the other faction for vault malfunctions, and the doctor
for drugging them. There were also notes hearing noises, feeling unusual
drafts of air from vents, and seeing the lights blinking patterns like some
sort of code. Both factions blamed this on the other, unaware that the true
culprits were the overseers, at the direction of Vault-Tec. Some inhabitants
suspected that the doctor may also have been involved. Patient notes in the
clinic indicated that many patients experiencing psychosis or aggression, but
the notes give no indication that the doctor is aware of the cause.
實驗目的是要在非藥物和非暴力的前提下觸發偏執現象。觸發的其中一個因子是潛意識訊
息,像是有小孩在他的終端機中說他和朋友都有聽到高音的噪音。許多私人日誌都出現不
同程度的偏執狂,因為避難所設備故障、懷疑被醫生下藥而責怪另一個顏色的人。居民還
記錄聽到聲音、感覺通風口有怪空氣、覺得燈泡閃爍是某種密碼等。兩個顏色的人都為此
責備另一邊,卻不知道真正的罪魁禍首是兩位Vault-Tec指派的監督。有些居民懷疑醫生
也有嫌疑,診所內的病人記錄說許多病人都有精神病或攻擊傾向,但這些記錄沒有跡象能
證明醫生有牽涉其中。
The vault inhabitants' fate is unknown. In all likelihood, the paranoia
caused them to turn on each other, the water filtration malfunction poisoned
them, and/or fire geckos breaking through from the sulfur caves may have
destroyed them all. In any case, when the convicts who escaped from the NCR
Correctional Facility led by Samuel Cooke discovered the vault, it was
completely abandoned.
沒人知道這批居民的命運,可能因為偏執而起全面衝突、淨水系統又故障了、和/或火蜥
蜴從硫磺洞口入侵,這些都有可能毀滅他們所有人。不管怎樣,當從NCR矯正設施逃脫的
犯人被Samuel Cooke領導前來找到19號避難所時,此處已經被廢棄了。

《Vault 21 21號避難所》(Fallout: New Vegas)
http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Vault_21
Vault 21 is a Vault-Tec vault that was once hidden under Las Vegas, Nevada.
It has since been converted into a hotel/casino and acts as one of many
sources of income for Mr. House and his young New Vegas empire.
21號避難所藏在內華達州的拉斯維加斯之下。它現在是Mr.House在他新創的新維加斯
(New Vwgas)帝國中,作為旅館和賭場替他賺錢。
Background 背景
Located in downtown Las Vegas, Nevada, Vault 21 was a unique Vault
experiment: everyone in the vault was equal, it was created with a perfectly
symmetrical layout, and the dwellers settled their differences via games of
chance. Reliance on luck to solve problems created what might be considered
the perfect realization of anarchy: a society in which everyone is equal and
no one has an advantage over the others. Vault-Tec ensured that every person
admitted to the vault when it first sealed was a compulsive gambler and were
unable to decline when Vault-Tec personnel running the vault informed them
that this was how the vault was to be run. The original dwellers then passed
on their lifestyle to their children and so on.
位於內華達州的拉斯維加斯之下的21號避難所有個獨特的實驗:每個人都是平等的,就連
建築布局都是對稱的,而大家分高下的方式是透過機率性遊戲。一切問題靠運氣解決的方
式創造出最理想的無政府狀態:每個人都是平等的,沒人比其他人更高等。Vault-Tec當
初在找人進來21號避難所時,都確保這些人都是賭性堅強的人,而且完全無法拒絕
Vault-Tec跟他們講的避難所規則。這第一批避難所居民後來把這種生活型態傳給了他們
的子孫。
However, as with all utopias, the peace was not lasting. Sometime between
2271 and 2281, Robert House planned an occupation of Vault 21. Resisting
attempts to be assimilated into his empire, the inhabitants agreed on
gambling to settle the issue. The game they played to settle the deal was
blackjack and almost the entire vault was in attendance. In a risky bet, the
supporters of House won against the opposition, and Vault 21's interior was
stripped of its useful electronics and equipment and partially filled in with
concrete, forcing the dwellers to resettle in the wasteland and on the Strip.
At Sarah Weintraub's and Michael Angelo's (a.k.a. Sheldon Weintraub)
insistence, House left the topmost level intact and allowed the Weintraubs to
establish a hotel there, which became another source of income for his
fledgling empire.
不過就跟所有烏托邦一樣,和平不可能一直持續下去。在2271到2281年之間的某天,
Robert House打算佔據21號避難所。居民為了抵抗不被他的帝國吸收,同意用賭博的方式
解決這個問題。進行方式是用21點,幾乎整個避難所的居民都參加了。最後支持與House
帝國合併的居民以些微之差獲勝,然後21號避難所內部有用的電子零件和設備立刻被
House拆走,部分還被混凝土填滿,使的居民被迫到廢土上定居。在Sarah Weintraub和
Michael Angelo(也就是Sheldon Weintraub)的堅持之下,House保留了最上層的部份,並
讓Weintraub姊弟在此經營一間旅館,這旅館之後也成為他新生帝國的收入來源之一。
Vault 21 is one of the extremely rare experimental vaults which successfully
protected its inhabitants while fulfilling the parameters of its experiment.
The experiments in most other Vault-Tec vaults ended up killing or
permanently altering their inhabitants or forced the dwellers to abandon.
Although Vault 3 was a control vault, intended to recolonize the surface
after an extended period of time, when its door was opened the Fiends
slaughtered its residents and took over.
以實驗組避難所來說,21號避難所是神蹟,因為它在完美執行實驗的情況下還成功保護其
居民。其他實驗組避難所不是殺了所有居民就是逼他們放棄避難所。儘管三號避難所是預
定要重新殖民地表的控制組避難所,但大門一開就被Fiends殺光並佔領了。

我原本在想要不要順便翻譯可汗幫,畢竟這也是Fallout系列的傳奇組織之一了
不過後來想想還是先不要替自己惹太多麻煩
何況接下來的21+1號和29號避難所,我已經預定替自己惹麻煩了......
請大家指正我的翻譯內容,感謝
