Guide to Fauna and Flora

The world is full of nature, beautiful and unique all in its own way. Luckily for you, the Great war left everything covered in massive, horrendous amounts of radiation! The wasteland is teeming full of decaying flesh monsters and mutant insects looking for a snack. This guide will tell you specifics about each creature and plant you can find just around in the wasteland, and anything special about them that you should watch out for.

#### **Feral Ghouls**

The degeneration into a feral state (referred to as ferocious post-necrotic dystrophy) is not fully understood. It is known that it is a result of a degeneration of the brain (which is not affected by the regenerative mutation of the spinal cord) and emerges following the atrophy of higher brain functions, accompanied by an increased level of aggression and appetite.
