📋 About This Mod
DISCLAIMER: In no way do I condone the idea of killing or harming children in real life. This mod exists solely by request for individuals who value realism and the consequences of their actions while playing a video game. It was highly unimmersive for people to have an invulnerable race of super children roaming a highly dangerous, post-apocalyptic world. This mod allows them to be vulnerable just like you. Just because children are now vulnerable does NOT mean the player necessarily has to be the one to kill them, although it is possible. Please keep that in mind before judging/commenting.
This mod was created for A Tale of Two Wastelands and is required should you wish to install this mod.
Otherwise, if you only have Fallout: New Vegas, I would advise you download this mod.
If you wound up here and only have fallout 3 I'd recommend downloading the mod, Killable Children V1-5, created by the original author, Neclipse.
If the name doesn't give you enough info about this mod, specifically, this mod allows the player to kill non-essential children of the wasteland. This includes children in both the Capital Wasteland, Mojave Wasteland, and all official DLCs. Children marked as essential should become unessential (killable) once their needed quest is completed.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Solid endorsement-to-download ratio (1,206 endorsements on 43k downloads) shows the community trusts it.
- Simple, focused feature: no bloat, just does what it says.
- Updated recently (June 2024), so it's likely compatible with current TTW versions.
⚠️ Cons
- Only affects children; if you wanted broader killable NPCs, this won't help.
- Requires Tale of Two Wastelands, which itself is a heavy mod setup—not for newbies.
For TTW players who want to remove the immersion-breaking invincibility of children in the wasteland. If you're a roleplayer or just hate that kids can't be touched, this is for you. Skip if you're not using TTW or if you prefer to keep children off-limits.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have TTW installed and running before adding this mod.
- Load order matters—place this mod after TTW's main esm files to ensure it overrides correctly.
- If you're using a mod manager, let it handle the file placement to avoid conflicts.
