Quaere Verum (Latin: Seek the truth) was an organization that existed before the Great War.
Background[]
Quaere Verum was a small pre-War organization, composed of three known members and one possible double agent, Aldwin Morley. The group's primary purpose appears to have been exposing "The Conspiracy,"[Non-game 1] a supposed government coverup of the usage of alien technology as a basis for their own. The group was considered to be a group of crackpots due to their belief in the existence of an alien conspiracy.[Non-game 2]
Quaere Verum attempted to prove this by using a plasma pistol they believed was clearly inspired by alien technology. The group was eradicated not long after the MPLX Novasurge prototype plasma pistol was stolen from them.[1]
Appearances[]
Quaere Verum is mentioned in the Fallout 3 add-on Mothership Zeta.

There are other bonuses too; the MPLX Novasurge inflicts more than three times the damage of a Plasma Pistol, with a bigger Crit % Mult too. Unfortunately, it is heavier and uses ammunition twice as quickly. Repair it using Plasma Pistols. It is found in a safe in the Debris Pile after you unlock it by hacking Reid Underwood’s Terminal inside the Mothership Zeta Cargo Hold [MZ2.11]."

Once thought to be covered up by a government conspiracy and believed only by "crackpot" groups such as the Quaere Verum, evidence of extraterrestrial life can be traced back throughout human history, but became nationally recognized after the mysterious disappearance of the Clarabella 7 space pod during the 1960s Space Race. It is said that Alien technology was the basis of many of the Enclave's more exotic and impressive weaponry and robotics, and even toy manufacturers such as Wilson Automatoys weren't immune to these accusations. Recently, after the discovery of an Alien body in Fort Bannister, the shocking truth was revealed. The Aliens are not only real and alive, but they’re back. And they're pissed."
