“Hmm . . . all right. We can do this. But you work for me, you better know that nobody ever double-crosses Gizmo and lives to talk about it. You got me?”
Gizmo is the wealthy owner of the casino and boxing ring in Junktown in Fallout.
Background[edit]
Publications[edit]
“Gizmo is an overweight and manipulative man who runs Gizmo's Casino on the west side of Junktown. He is a fat slob of a bully who dreams of running the entire town unhindered by do-gooders like Killian Darkwater. He has tried to eliminate Killian several times already, but also managed to keep his own hands relatively clean in each attempt. Killian is looking for a way to get proof that Gizmo is behind the attempted assassinations. Gizmo is a genuine lowlife who thinks he's the real power in town. If one were to disobey his order, he will have them killed.”— Fallout Official Survival Guide pp. 92-93

Notes[edit]
- After death, Gizmo's corpse is left where it is, keeled over on his desk. If the Vault Dweller visits the casino sometime later, his corpse appears changed, rotting, with insects flying above it. Should the Vault Dweller return a long while later, Gizmo's corpse will no longer be present.
- He, along with the Vault 13 Overseer, are the only two people in the game that are seen sitting down.
- He remains as Legacy Content in the game files for Fallout 2.

"Hmm . . . all right. We can do this. But you work for me, you better know that nobody ever double-crosses Gizmo and lives to talk about it. You got me?"
"Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah! Izo's got your money. Oh, this is good! Hey, hey, uh . . . you should leave town for a while. You know, just in case."
"I don't know who you are, but I don't take kindly to strangers walking into my office and accusing me of things they know nothing about."- "Get your butt in here and sit down. We got some business to discuss."
