Radscorpions are large mutated versions of emperor scorpions. Despite being an African species by origin, they have been found in other locations such as the Mojave Wasteland, indicating that they have primarily evolved from the descendants of former pets.
Overview[]
Radscorpions were created from massive amounts of radiation left over from a massive nuclear war between China and the U.S. They are very poisonous and very aggressive. Some can grow to truly giant proportions, their poison growing in potency; albino radscorpions appear to be the same size as this giant variety, but regenerate in direct sunlight. They usually hunt in pairs.
