* [[Boomerang Bigot]]: Horrigan despises "mutants" (a category which includes Wasteland humans), and loves to kill them gratuitously in ways that disturb even the other Enclave soldiers. This is in spite of his own status as a modified Super Mutant (according to [[Word of God]], he doesn't think of himself as a mutant and his status as a Super Mutant isn't generally known among the Enclave ranks, who generally think of him as something the lab boys cooked up).

The current president of the Enclave living on the Oil Rig, who's planning to {{spoiler|kill off the entire population of the former United States except the Enclave, to restore it to a "clean" America}}

* [[Affably Evil]]: He's quite friendly and polite, even after you tell him who you are and that you plan to stop him.
* [[Affably Evil]]
* [[Authority Equals Asskicking]]: Averted oh so much. He's just a standard human with no armor or weapons.

* [[Bald of Evil]]: He's bald save for a few wisps of hair.
* [[Big Bad]]
* [[Big Bad]]: The leader of the Enclave and thus primary antagonist of the game.
* [[Bald of Evil]]
* [[Evil Is Dumb]]: You almost feel sorry for him because of just how gullible and naive he is. You can say directly to his face that you're here to kill him and everyone else on the rig, and he won't call any guards or defend himself, he just glowers at you and tells you it's too late to stop his plan even if he dies. He's wrong, by the way.

* [[Karmic Death]]: It's possible to kill him by making him O.D. on whatever drugs you've gathered around the wastes. It's actually preferable to do it that way, because if you don't you'll have an entire base of [[Demonic Spiders|Enclave Troopers]] on your ass.

* [[Knight Templar]]: He is convinced that his plan to enact a genocide upon the wasteland is justified for the greater good of the "pure" vestiges of humanity.
* [[Knight Templar]]
* [[Necessarily Evil]]: He's fully aware he's going to wipe out thousands of people with his plan and realizes it's a horrible thing to do, but considers it needed for the United States to be reborn as a proper country.

* [[Non-Action Big Bad]]: Being a regular civilian in a suit, he has absolutely no skill in combat and isn't even armed. However, killing him will turn the entire Oil Rig hostile, if they weren't already.

* [[Orcus on His Throne]]

* [[President Evil]]: Dick Richardson is ''the'' President of the United States who seeks to completely eradicate the life in Wasteland. The ending explains that after Enclave's defeat, the very title of President is used as a bogeyman to children (even though NCR still uses the title of President)
* [[President Evil]]
* [[What Measure Is a Non-Human?]]: As with most of the Enclave, anyone living out in the Wasteland has been exposed to radiation and is therefore a mutant and expendable. Vault citizens are the only exceptions, and even they are of limited value (they can be freely kidnapped [[For Science!]] if necessary).

* [[Cloudcuckoolander]]: Most of his dialogue consists of absurd but genuine quotes from Dan Quayle repeated in an endless loop.

* [[Evil Is Dumb]]
* [[Evil Is Dumb]]: He's entirely clueless and stupid.
* [[Harmless Villain]]: Despite being one of the highest-ranking leaders of the enclave he is completely non-hostile and harmless. Killing him will in fact cause you to lose karma points.

The Enclave's lead scientist at Navarro, doctor Schreber is [[Up to Eleven|even more immoral then the rest of the Enclave]]. His constant horrific experiments have disturbed the base, and resulted in the commander ordering his room soundproofed. You can come across him in your visit to Navarro, where you have to kill him to obtain the companion K-9.

* [[Complete Monster]]: He created K-9 as an assistant, but K-9 disapproved of the doctor's horrible experiments, so one day he bit him. So what does Schreber do? He disables his legs and sticks him in the corner of the room, so K-9 will be forced to watch ''every'' horrible experiment he does without being able to do anything about it.
