Mongrel (Fallout 4)

 

Mongrel are canine-like animals that can be found in Fallout 4.

BackgroundEdit

Dogs come in many shapes and sizes across the Commonwealth. Mongrels are encountered the most often, and are found everywhere. They are usually quite aggressive and will hunt anything. However, some have been domesticated once again by raiders and some friendly settlers for use as attack dogs.

CharacteristicsEdit

BiologyEdit

The appearance of mongrels is drastically different to that of other Commonwealth dogs and FEV-exposed hounds. The adverse effects of radiation has given mongrels a withered skeletal appearance, no common dog nose and almost total hair loss. Their frequent location near places where dogs would have lived before the War suggests that at least some mongrels are actually pre-War canines that underwent ghoulification.

Notable mongrelsEdit

• Alissa - A mongrel found at the Neponset Park overpass with the corpse of its owner, Evan O'Dood.
• Ruby - A hostile mongrel southwest of Hesters Consumer Robotics. Along with Shug and Dando, Ruby will attack the Sole Survivor. Unlike her friend, she is level-independent and will always spawn as a non-glowing mongrel.
• Shug - A leveled mongrel accompanying Ruby. Higher levelled characters will see him spawn as a glowing variant.
• Wounded dog (aka Mutt, Sparky or Buttface) - A passive female mongrel with wounded legs. The Sole Survivor can heal and name the mongrel.
• Rudolph - Mongrel in Holiday Spirits.

NotesEdit

• Once successfully pacified with the Animal Friend perk, the Sole Survivor can initiate a trade and equip items on the animal, just like Dogmeat.
• Mongrels have many of the same animations as Dogmeat, and when idle they can be seen playing with a teddy bear or rolling on their backs.
• The mongrels reuse the sound files for the wolves in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.

AppearancesEdit
