Subject: Important Reminder: Safety Concerns in the Sewers
Date: March 7, 2184

Dear Vault Residents,

I hope this message finds you well. I want to address an important matter regarding the ongoing activities of some of our teenage residents. It has come to my attention that a group of them has been engaging in a “Caverns and Creatures” LARP (Live Action Role Play) within the vault’s sewer system and electrical tunnels.

While I appreciate the creativity and enthusiasm of our youth, this behavior poses significant safety risks. The tunnels are not designed for recreational activities, and the potential hazards—such as exposure to unsanitary conditions and the risk of electrical hazards—are concerning.

I urge all parents to please speak with their teenagers about the importance of adhering to our safety protocols. Let’s ensure our community remains safe and healthy.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Sincerely,
John Chandler
Overseer, Vault 23

Subject: Follow-Up: Ongoing Safety Issues
Date: March 24, 2184

Dear Residents,

I am following up on my previous email regarding the LARP activities taking place in the sewer system and electrical tunnels. Despite my initial request, we have continued to receive reports of these events, along with an increasing number of complaints from our engineering team.

They have discovered various foam rubber weapons and costume items littering the tunnels, which is not only unhygienic but also obstructs vital maintenance work. The presence of these items poses additional risks to our engineers, who need to navigate these areas safely.

I kindly ask once more for your support in communicating the seriousness of this situation to your teenagers. Their health and safety, along with the efficient operation of our vault, depend on it.

Thank you for your understanding.

Best regards,
John Chandler
Overseer, Vault 23

Subject: Final Notice: Cease LARP Activities in Tunnels
Date: April 9, 2184

Dear Vault Residents,

I must once again address the ongoing issue of “Caverns and Creatures” LARP activities occurring in our sewer system and electrical tunnels. Despite previous reminders, these activities have persisted, leading to significant safety and hygiene concerns.

Vault Engineer Bud Cohen was severely injured last night while working routine maintenance tasks. He had reached the top of the stairs from the lower electrical tunnels and was startled when two teenagers jumped out of the shadows shouting “slay the Owlbear!” One was wearing a Grognak costume and carrying a rubber sword and another wore a Vault-Tec bathrobe sewn with cloth stars and carried a broom handle. Bud stumbled back and tumbled half-way down the flight of stairs, while the teens ran back up into the Vault.

This is a final notice: all LARP activities in these areas must cease immediately. We cannot compromise the safety of our residents or the integrity of our vault infrastructure. If these activities continue, we will have to consider further actions, including potential restrictions on access to these areas.

I appreciate your immediate attention to this matter. Together, let’s prioritize the well-being of our community.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Sincerely,
John Chandler
Overseer, Vault 23
