Horrigan was born in 2211 Originally a Secret Service Agent for the President of the Enclave, Frank is sent out with several other teams to search for slaves to use for excavating the remains of Mariposa. Some time in 2236, around September, scientists unearth the F.E.V virus and mutations begin to occur amongst those who come in contact with it. Horrigan is one of these unfortunate souls. He is quickly shuttled back to the Enclave for further research.
The timeline is unknown, but between 2236 and 2238 Frank Horrigan undergoes his transformation into a Super Mutant. He is kept under heavy sedation and is operated on by Enclave technicians and scientists under Dr. Charles Curling. In January of 2239, tests are starting to show negative results. It is then decided that Frank should be activated for field operations.
After a series of successful and bloody missions ending in March of 2239, the Enclave creates a modified version of Power Armor specifically to encapsulate Horrigan's bulk. Frank Horrigan becomes the means to the Enclave's ends. It is to be noted that from this point on, Frank is "married" to his suit. He cannot be separated from it as it continually pumps him full of drugs, in fact acting as life support.
Horrigan was eventually killed in 2242 by a tribal known as the the Chosen one. The last hit literally tore him in two along the waist although he was able to gather enough strength for some final words: "Duty, Honor, Courage, Semper Fi.." Unknown to the chosen one, an mysterious force intervened at that moment, restoring Frank Horrigan to full health and bringing him as well as the entire Poseidon energy Rig then later Raven Rock, The Satellite Relay Stations, Adams Air force base, and the mobile base crawler.
The Enclave is one of two secret agencies that runs the United States Government, it is primarily in control of the more conservative elements of America, while it's Rival the Trust runs the liberal elements. The Trust was formed by the Alien Enlil before America was even founded, and indeed the United State's founding was a gambit by Enlil to conquer the earth. However he was not the only Alien to do this, virtually every great power was formed by various Aliens in an attempt to rule the world. Only Communist China and Russia proved to be exceptions, as the Aliens were soon killed by the revolutionaries as their monarchies crumbled.
The Enclave plots to accelerate the events that gave birth to them by shifting the geo-political position of the earth into one that would push it to nuclear war, take over the shattered remnants of the earth, then spread across the stars, exterminating every Alien race they find until the entire omniverse is under American control.
