Radscorpion (Fallout 76)

Radscorpions are insectsActorTypeBug found in Appalachia.
==Background==
Radscorpions are large, mutated scorpions commonly found in the wasteland, often burrowing underground.
==Characteristics==
===Biology===
Radscorpions sport highly venomous stingers, the ability to burrow underground in seconds, powerful claws, and durable exoskeletons.
===Gameplay attributes===
Radscorpions are fast runners, extremely aggressive, extraordinarily well armored and will use their powerful claws and poisoned tails to attack enemies quickly and relentlessly; capable of dealing a large amount of physical and poison damage in only a few hits. With their ability to burrow underground and traverse large distances seemingly instantaneously, retreating from an encounter is often impossible. Their only weak spot is their relatively small face.
Due to their claw and poisonous sting attacks as well as their great maneuverability, radscorpions are powerful melee fighters. If attacked from afar, they will immediately burrow and emerge close to the player character, often in melee range, provided the ground type can be navigated through by them.
