Vaults are experimental fallout shelter in the United States of America created by Vault-Tec. In A Fallout Tale Cywren Caster was raised in one such vault. Vaults were design to withstand a direct hit from a nuke with a 2% failure rate. The common Public was told they are for humanity's survival and benefit, though Vault-Tec had a more sinister purpose.
True Purpose[]
Vaults were actually a sadistic way for the US government to perform un-ethical tests on its citizens, they never feared a nuclear war and all Vaults were to be shut on specific dates where tensions were high and the fears of nuclear war had risen.

Purpose: The original purpose of the Vault 101 Vault experiment was to stay closed indefinitely, as a study of the human condition, the genetic impact of a small group of individuals breeding through several generations, and the role of the Overseer when a vault never opened, though the limited genetic material would probably result in inbreeding.
