Overseer

An overseer is the leader of a Vault-Tec vault. 
==Background==
The overseers were often aware of their vault's purpose as an experiment and helped coordinate it.Vault-Tec Workshop loading screens: "The Overseer is the person responsible for every aspect of a Vault's operation - including any bizarre social experiments cooked up by Dr. Stanislaus Braun, the Director of Vault-Tec's Societal Preservation Program." Overseers were chosen in a variety of ways, with initial leaders chosen before the war, and subsequent overseers afterward. In Vault 11, elections were held each year to choose a new overseer, who in turn would be killed as that year's "sacrifice."Vault 11 terminal entries; Overseer Order 745Vault 11 terminal entries; Vault 11 Election Guide
The overseer's role and extent of their authority varied from vault to vault; in one vault an overseer might serve in a purely advisory capacity, while another vault might have an overseer with absolute control of every aspect of its residents' lives.Fallout 3 loading screens: "The Overseer is the incontestable leader of Vault 101, and his word is law." Dr. Stanislaus Braun distributed sealed orders to each vault's overseer in the weeks before the Great War. According to a letter addressed by Dr. Braun to the original overseer of Vault 101, disclosing the contents of those sealed orders to the vault's residents or deviating from the experiment were grounds for termination of employment from Vault-Tec.Vault 101 terminal entries; overseer's terminal, Letter from Doctor Stanislaus Braun

You know that better than anyone. But down here, they've got a safe life. And while we're down here, I'm in charge. Like the G.O.A.T. said: 'To whom do we owe everything you have, including our lives?' The Overseer! And that's me!"(Allen Mack's dialogue)

Amata Almodovar 	Vault 101, potential	 	The Lone Wanderer: "I just had a little talk with him and explained a few things. All quite civil."Amata Almodovar: "You and him? Civil? I expected you to change out in the Wasteland, but not that much! But I guess we'll all be learning a bit about the outside now, won't we? As the new Overseer, I'm planning on opening the Vault, this time for good. It's a bright new day for the Vault... but I'm afraid there's one thing that has to change."(Amata Almodovar's dialogue)
