The Vault Vikings are an eccentric tribe of Raiders hailing from The Frontier to the North of the NCR, serving as one of the 8 major member tribes of the Raider Alliance.
Background[]
The Vault Vikings originate from Vault 37, located in Oregon, to the North of NCR territory. This Vault's social experiment was organizing the Vault Dwellers into various groups based on historical warrior societies from the local Society of Creative Anachronism (SCA) chapter, which were then pitted against one another for control of the Vault after 100 years of living in a massive simulated forest habitat. The Vault Vikings won this conflict and expanded out into the Wasteland, easily defeating rivals with their superior arms and tactics.
Predictably, the Vault Vikings are based on a romanticized version of Norse culture, and as such place a great emphasis on martial prowess. While generally avoiding firearms, they possess far more sophisticated knowledge of warfare and weapon-making than most other Raider tribes, arming themselves with well-made Chainmail, Shields, and Melee Weapons.
