Head north up Virgin street, past the casinos... follow the trail that leads outside of town. You will... come to the Stables.Big Jesus Mordino

The Stables are the Mordino family's research labs at New Reno, located northwest just outside the city limits in Fallout 2.

Overview[]

Controlled by the Mordino family, the Stables are the primary production and research site for the family's Jet empire. The site takes its name from its previous purpose; it is a converted stable and livestock pen. Nowadays, the Stables house slaves rather than livestock, who are used as labor for the family's Jet production, as well as test subjects by Mordino scientists seeking to improve their product. However, some brahmin are still kept around the stables, as brahmin dung is a main component of Jet.

The Stables also house the Mordino family's prized scientist, Myron, who is given a spacious underground private laboratory and living space which connects to the two main buildings of the Stables.

Since the facility, and Myron in particular, represents the keystone of the Mordino empire, the Stables are very well secured. Numerous guards patrol the compound, and entrances to both buildings are secured behind chain-link fence topped with razor wire. Although the existence of the Stables is known to the general public, the exact location is not, lending more security to the site. Security around Myron's lab is especially tight: two armed guards are present at all times.

Layout[]

There are two main buildings at the Stables. The eastern warehouse building is concerned with the production and packaging of Jet. Here, a small army of slaves labor endlessly under watch by armed guards, packaging and loading canisters of Jet. From here, the canisters are transshipped to New Reno, where they are sold, put on caravans, and sent to nearby communities like Redding.

The western building is the testing center and namesake of the facility. Little more than a converted set of livestock pens, these literal stables house a small group of slaves used for drug testing. Much of this research is overseen by Marjorie Reed, while security of the building is handled by a Mordino thug named Ramirez.

The subterranean tunnels connecting the two buildings can be accessed by a hatch in each building: in the west building, the hatch is in the middle of the lab room while in the east building, the hatch is next to the easternmost chemical tank. Inside the underground area, Myron is located in the southwest.

Notes[]

  • One of the brahmin in the pen will be mooing differently than the others, and will be described as angry when examined. The player will be given three attempts to use their Doctor skill on the angry brahmin.
    • If successful, the brahmin will cough up a microfusion cell and the player will get some XP.
    • If unsuccessful, the brahmin will attack the player.[Non-game 1]
  • The Highwayman will not appear at the Stables when Big Jesus Mordino's directions are followed to get to there. Leaving the area after this will act exactly the same as leaving the area using the Highwayman (complete with car ambience and fast travel), but the car will not be present at the destination. It will instead be where it was in New Reno right before accepting the quest.

The Stables appear only in Fallout 2.
