Another variant of the Imposter Sheepsquatch, dubbed the "Sheepsquatch Imposterling," was created not by Calvin van Lowe, but by the Imposter Sheepsquatch itself. The Sheepsquatch Imposterling was a generic assaultron unit encountered by the Imposter Sheepsquatch and subsequently given a backdoor installation of the "mating rituals" and a directive to kill any Bysshe Company employees on sight. The Imposterling was given another subdirective to report any and all assaultron sightings to the "mother unit" so that the cycle of "reproduction" could continue.Command parameters Ultimately, the Imposterling ended up sealed within the lower areas of the Bysshe natural gas pipeline facility in the Harpers Ferry tunnel,Suspicious noises and was destroyed in 2104 by a Vault Dweller from Vault 76 and Paladin Leila Rahmani.Events of Out of the Blue
==Characteristics==
The Imposter Sheepsquatch is invisible and invulnerable until the three pylons nearby are activated. Activating a pylon places a damaging effect on the player character who activated it and notifies all event participants of who has activated which pylon if they have the event tracked. The Imposter Sheepsquatch becomes visible and loses its invulnerability as long as all three pylons are all active. If any of the pylons become deactivated through the death of the player character who activated it, the imposter Sheepsquatch becomes invisible and invulnerable again. The pylon damage will not finish off downed players, and they still contribute to disabling the imposter's shields.

* The Imposter Sheepsquatch is bugged to have 100% armor penetration on all of its attacks.
