Of Vault 13's inhabitants, only Goris, who had accompanied the Chosen One on adventures outside Vault 13, survived. The deathclaws paid a high price for their rebellion, however: an Enclave team, led by Frank Horrigan, attacked Vault 13 and massacred the deathclaws (and presumably those humans under their protection). Fortunately, a tribal known as the Chosen One had a replacement voice module and was willing to install his in exchange for Gruthar's help in finding a GECK, one of which Gruthar had within the Vault's storage area. However, the deathclaws could only interact with it by voice commands, and it became a severe problem when the computer's voice module malfunctioned. They faced other problems while adapting to life in the Vault as well: after the overthrow of the paranoid overseer, the dwellers of Vault 13 had turned day-to-day operations over to a Brotherhood-technology based computer. One human, Matt, struck against the deathclaws and bombed the mother deathclaw and her hatchlings the deathclaw mother survived, but security was tightened from then on. Several humans from the surrounding area moved into the Vault to live under the protection of the deathclaws, but not all were pleased with these new neighbors. Although they stormed Vault 13 in 2242 and kidnapped the population with the Enclave, they later abandoned them and adopted the now-empty Vault as their new home under the leadership of Gruthar. While the Enclave hoped that the deathclaws would be intelligent enough to obey orders without question, the Enclave's deathclaws doubted the morality of their masters. This boosted their intelligence and gave them the ability to talk with varying degrees of articulation. In 2235, the Enclave captured deathclaws and exposed them to FEV. Considered a failure for their peaceful ways, the Enclave eradicated their own creations.
