In Fallout season 1, the series introduced viewers to three point-of-view characters, including Vault Dweller Lucy MacLean (Ella Purnell), actor-turned-bounty hunter Cooper Howard/The Ghoul (Walton Goggins), and Brotherhood of Steel acolyte Maximus (Aaron Moten). As Lucy traverses the world of Fallout, she encounters plenty of other unique personalities. In fact, between the show’s retrofuturistic appearance, dark humor, and Fallout‘s unique cast of characters, the Amazon Prime Video series leaves a singular mark. Despite its best efforts, however, the show’s eight-episode first season couldn’t include every single character or creature, leaving plenty for season 2.

Based on Fallout season 1’s ending, the sophomore outing is headed to the franchise’s iconic New Vegas location. First seen in the fan-favorite Fallout: New Vegas game, the post-apocalyptic version of The Strip is full of unhinged, power-hungry, and terrifying personalities. While the show’s first season included plenty of Fallout Easter eggs and references, it established its own cast of characters. Now that the show is moving to a location that fans are familiar with — just 15 years after New Vegas — it needs to include some of the game’s best characters.

14Mr. House

The Rob-Co CEO Has Already Appeared In Fallout Season 1

A central character in Fallout: New Vegas, the enigmatic Robert Edwin House — a.k.a. Mr. House — has a brief cameo in Fallout season 1. Portrayed by Rafi Silver in the show, Mr. House appears in a flashback that sees Vault-Tec pitching its signature product to other leading corporations in 2077. In addition to ensuring Las Vegas would survive the imminent bombs, Mr. House placed his physical body within a life-support device, while his brain was wired into a network via a supercomputer. The mysterious overlord of The Strip, Mr. House will definitely appear in Fallout season 2, even if only in flashbacks.

Mr. House’s Rob-Co is responsible for the Securitron robots in Fallout: New Vegas.

13Dog/God

A Memorable Character From Fallout: New Vegas’ Dead Money DLC

Dog/God is unique in that the character has two minds — a kind of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde of the Fallout franchise. A supermutant, Dog is a nightkin who aids the Brotherhood of Steel’s Father Elijah. The character’s alternate identity, God, wants to free Dog from Elijah’s control. Essentially, Father Elijah triggers the appearance of Dog, while the character’s own voice can reawaken God. As their names imply, Dog is obedient, while God has more agency. Since Fallout season 1 already teased the existence of supermutants, introducing a memorable character like Dog/God would be a solid choice for season 2.

12Joshua Graham

AKA The Burned Man

Originally a Mormon missionary, Joshua Graham co-founded one of Fallout‘s most iconic factions, Caesar’s Legion, alongside Caesar himself. After leading the Legion’s troops to defeat in the First Battle of the Hoover Dam, Graham was sentenced to death by Caesar. Lit on fire and thrown into the Grand Canyon, Graham survives and becomes the fabled Burned Man of the Wasteland. A leader of the Dead Horses tribe in New Vegas, Joshua Graham is definitely one of the franchise’s more compelling characters, especially if season 2 plans to introduce Caesar’s Legion.

11Mr. New Vegas

The AI DJ Of The Strip

Created by Mr. House before the Great War, Mr. New Vegas is an AI personality that gives voice to Radio New Vegas. For over 200 years, the dark-humored AI has served as The Strip’s DJ. With the Fallout show leaning into the franchise’s signature comedic bent, it would make sense for the sophomore outing to introduce Mr. New Vegas, who provides both levity and color to an otherwise brutal place. Not to mention, the Radio New Vegas element would allow the series to incorporate more vintage, scene-setting tunes.

10Benny

The Guy Who Wants To Beat The House

Fallout: New Vegas‘ secondary antagonist, Benny is the head of the Chairmen of New Vegas during the events of the game. Formerly part of a nomadic tribe that was brought into Mr. House’s fold, Benny wants to use his position and cunning to seize control of New Vegas. Although it would seem that the house always wins, Benny is keen on rigging any game he plays. Whether Benny’s dead in the Fallout canon remains to be seen, but he could certainly appear in flashbacks in the New Vegas-set season 2.

9Caesar (AKA Edward Sallow)

A Co-Founder Of Caesar’s Legion

A former citizen of the New California Republic, Edward Sallow took on the name Caesar when he became the ruthless-yet-charismatic leader of Caesar’s Legion, one of Fallout’s many factions. The dictator’s Legion has a powerful presence in the Mojave Wasteland, though the New California Republic fights Caesar’s troops for control of the area. Again, the character’s canon status is dependent, but that doesn’t mean Caesar can’t appear in flashbacks, especially considering how important the NCR is to Fallout season 1’s ending.

8Vulpes Inculta

A Key Member Of Caesar’s Legion

As his name implies, Vulpes Inculta is a member of Caesar’s Legion in Fallout: New Vegas. A devout follower of Caesar’s ruthless dogma, Vulpes Inculta — or Mr. Fox — is one of Caesar’s most trusted fighters. The leader of the Legion’s frumentarii — scouts and spies who operate in the Mojave Wasteland — Vulpes Inculta, or another key member of the Legion, seems like a no-brainer for Fallout season 2. Not to mention, one brilliant Fallout theory suggests the Brotherhood of Steel might be connected to the Legion, making the appearance of legionaries all-the-more important.

7Ronald Curtis (AKA Picus)

A Legion Spy Who Infiltrates The NCR

Bravo Company commander Ronald Curtis seems like an upstanding member of the New California Republic’s army. However, he’s actually Picus, one of Caesar’s Legion’s most skilled operatives. By infiltrating the NCR, Curtis/Picus adds an interesting dimension to Fallout: New Vegas, and someone with shifting allegiances — or impressive espionage skills — would be a real asset to Fallout season 2’s cast of characters. Not to mention, Picus/Curtis can help shed more light on the dynamic between the Legion and the NCR for TV show viewers.

6Dean Domino

A Lounge Singer-Turned-Ghoul

A potential companion to New Vegas‘ playable character, Dean Domino was a pre-war lounge singer who survived the bombings and became a ghoul. Dubbed the “King of Swing,” Dean Domino is a quick-witted gunslinger, but even though his ghoulified state makes him hard to knock down, his ego is much more fragile. He’s exactly the kind of weird that Fallout season 2 needs. Plus, it would be great to see Cooper Howard/The Ghoul interact with another ghoul that hasn’t become feral.

5Jason Bright

The Leader Of The Bright Brotherhood Ghouls

The glowing Jason Bright is the leader of the Bright Brotherhood — a group of so-called “glowing ones.” In the game, Jason Bright makes his home at the former REPCONN test site, which is inhabited by all sorts of Fallout creatures and monsters. A self-appointed prophet, the charismatic cult leader has convinced his followers that the whole ghoulish flock can undertake the “Great Journey” to the “Far Beyond” — a realm that will allow ghouls to heal. Between Jason Bright’s status as a wacky cult leader and the show’s interest in looking at anti-ghoul bigotry, the character’s season 2 inclusion feels like a must.

4Legate Lanius

AKA The Monster Of The East

Dubbed the Monster of the East, Legate Lanius is a key part of Caesar’s Legion. After conquering 19 tribes, he earns the moniker of Monster of the East, and sets his sights on destroying the NCR next. While Lanius can serve as a boss battle in Fallout: New Vegas, his status is dependent on the player’s actions. Yet again, that makes his canonical standing a bit dubious. If Lanius doesn’t appear in Fallout season 2, odds are he’ll at least get a mention for his sheer brutality.

3The King

One Of New Vegas’ Resident Elvis Impersonators

As his name implies, The King is an Elvis impersonator — because it simply wouldn’t be Vegas without one, even in the post-apocalyptic Wasteland. After being forced off The Strip, The King’s tribe made their home in a former Elvis impersonation school. Due to all the posters and tapes of Elvis, the tribe’s members believed he was some sort of deity known only as “The King.” As a result, they formed a faction around worshiping Elvis, which is definitely weird, but The King and his group are also a breath of fresh air. Unlike most other groups, they don’t pick fights or try to conquer others.

2Tabitha

The Anti-Human Radio Host

The nightkin leader of the State of Utobitha, Tabitha is one of Fallout: New Vegas‘ most memorable characters. Unlike Mr. New Vegas, Tabitha’s radio show — she hosts the station at Black Mountain — isn’t all that beloved. After saving supermutants from human cruelty, Tabitha decided to broadcast her anti-human thoughts over the radio. In the game, the player character can either kill Tabitha or talk her down, so her canon fate is unknown. Still, with her recognizable glasses and penchant for being an on-air talk-show host, Tabitha would be a great addition to Fallout season 2.

1Yes Man

A Modified Securitron AI Program

Originally, the Securitron AI program Yes Man was programmed to work for Mr. House. However, Benny slyly recovered the robot and turned Yes Man into his right-hand man. A key part of Benny’s plans to take over New Vegas, Yes Man is one of Fallout‘s most memorable automatons. Plus, the character plays a key role in the player’s end-game decisions. Since it’s not yet clear which Fallout: New Vegas ending is canon, Fallout season 2 will have to decide once and for all how the player reshaped the Mojave Wasteland.
