If normal deathclaws are terrible monsters in their own right, the tough deathclaws are horror incarnate. A tough deathclaw can weather outstanding amounts of damage before succumbing to their wounds, and a single sweep of its claws can end the lives of its enemies.

A mother deathclaw is truly a creature to be feared, for not only is she a deathclaw, she is also a mother protecting her young. She is a powerful enemy, and in ''[[Fallout]]'' a mother deathclaw must be killed in order to stop her from hatching more of her young; the only way of eliminating the deathclaws from the [[Boneyard]].

“The Deathclaw is the most evil thing to rise out of the ashes after the war. Some say it's a powerful ghost from the war that haunts the land. It's no ghost, it's as real as you and me. It's 20 feet tall with teeth as big as your arm. It's some kind of demon that found its way here when the world was engulfed in fire.”— Beth's dialogue file, Fallout

Deathclaws are mutated creatures in Fallout and Fallout 2. They are a large, agile, and strong species of mutant horned Jackson's chameleon.[1]

Background

This section is transcluded from deathclaw. To change it, please edit the transcluded page.

Originally engineered before the Great War by the U.S. government as a cheap replacement for human troops during combat operations, deathclaws were derived from a mixed animal stock, primarily the popular Jackson's chameleon.[1] Although the project was successful in creating a ferocious predator capable of surviving on its own in the wild, no references exist of them ever being deployed on the battlefield. After the Great War, deathclaws escaped into the wild and quickly spread across the continent. The Enclave had no hand in the deathclaw's creation, so far as the Appalachian Enclave's research division knows, but they do note that the genetic manipulation looks similar to their own projects.[2] Eventually, they were refined by the Master through genetic manipulation and the Forced Evolutionary Virus.[Non-game 1] Because initial reports were limited to a series of isolated nests, deathclaws were viewed as legendary creatures by the various inhabitants of southern California.[3] However, the population in the Boneyard was keenly aware of their existence, as a lone den mother and her offspring claimed the area between Downey and Norwalk around 2161, keeping the Gun Runners in a checkmate while terrorizing other communities in the region.[4] Also, a single deathclaw was found living near the outskirts of the Hub.[5]

Their gradual spread throughout the wasteland raised awareness of their existence, until they entered common consciousness as a lethal predator. As stated above, the Enclave eventually continued their research project started before the war, developing intelligent deathclaws for use in hostile environments around 2235.[Non-game 2] On May 17, 2242, the first successful pack was dropped into Vault 13 to cloak the presence of the Enclave and their abduction of the dwellers within. Following their first combat test, these deathclaws broke free of their Enclave masters, having become far more intelligent than anyone could foresee.[Non-game 3] They began developing a unique culture, as the first known non-humanoid sentient beings in history.[6] However, their intelligence was discovered by Dr. Schreber of Navarro, whose report led to the extermination of intelligent deathclaws with extreme prejudice.[7] Subsequent experimentation involved the aforementioned domestication units, although by the end of the 23rd century.[8]

Characteristics

Biology

This section is transcluded from deathclaw. To change it, please edit the transcluded page.

Deathclaws are a large, carnivorous,[9] bipedal reptile species, designed for maximum lethality. The choice to make them bipedal was natural, as bipedalism raises the head, providing a greater field of vision and thus improving the ability to detect targets or resources. The upper limbs were also freed by this choice and could be fashioned into extremely dangerous weapons. The caveat is that the deathclaw is not as fast as a quadrupedal animal, though this is a largely academic concern. However, deathclaws have been observed running on all fours when charging prey. The rippling musculature of the deathclaw provides it with superior strength, excellent speed, and incredible resilience in most combat situations.[10][Non-game 1][1] Deathclaws communicate with each other in a pack using growls and body language, though they are also capable of mimicking human voices like a parrot if their intelligence is artificially increased.[1]

Their strength is further magnified by their claws. Owing to their lineage, the deathclaw has opposable thumbs, though an additional two fingers were coded into the genome, for a total of five fingers on each hand. Each terminates in a sharp talon that allows the reptile to wound and kill with frightening efficiency; a single swipe is capable of bisecting an unarmored human[11] in seconds.[12] Deathclaw hide is extremely tough, providing an excellent defense against blunt and edged weapons. Firearms and energy weapons are reliable tools for killing a deathclaw, though lower powered variants are likely to have trouble piercing its skin. The defense is enhanced by horns and dorsal spikes, making melee combat a very dangerous proposition.[1][13]

However, while they are difficult opponents, their keen senses can be used against them. Loud noises and bright light, such as that emitted by flares, can be used to deter a deathclaw's advance or even keep it at bay.[14]

Gameplay attributes

In Fallout, a deathclaw first appeared in a mission to find missing caravans: while the deathclaw was not responsible for the caravan disappearances, as some had believed, evidence in its lair did lead to the correct solution. Deathclaws had also established a nest in the abandoned warehouse district of the Boneyard, obstructing traffic between the Gun Runners and potential trading partners and making any scavenging in the area very hazardous and deadly.

Fallout
Fallout 2

There are two varieties of deathclaw in Fallout 2. One is the regular variety, like those found in Fallout. These are found in random encounters across the wasteland, often in groups of two to five, sometimes including young and baby deathclaws.

The other variety of deathclaw are the intelligent deathclaws occupying Vault 13, the experiments of the Enclave, mentioned above. Goris, the son of the Vault 13 pack leader Gruthar, is also a recruitable companion.

Deathclaw spawn

Deathclaw fo1

Deathclaw spawn are the hatchlings of the deathclaw mother, many times smaller than an adult but still vicious and dangerous to unprepared travellers. The real danger, though, is in the form of their mother, who will furiously protect her young.

Tough deathclaw

Deathclaw fo1

If normal deathclaws are terrible monsters in their own right, the tough deathclaws are horror incarnate. A tough deathclaw can weather outstanding amounts of damage before succumbing to their wounds, and a single sweep of its claws can end the lives of its enemies.

Mother deathclaw

Deathclaw fo1

A mother deathclaw is truly a creature to be feared, for not only is she a deathclaw, she is also a mother protecting her young. She is a powerful enemy, and in Fallout a mother deathclaw must be killed in order to stop her from hatching more of her young; the only way of eliminating the deathclaws from the Boneyard.

There are a lot of similarities still present, but an even greater number of differences. The mutation factor is quite high.
