Radstags are creatures found in Appalachia in 2102 .
Background
Radstags are common deer that have been recently mutated as a result of exposure to radiation in the fallout of the Great War . Because of this, radstags, like brahmin , have two heads, less fur and are sometimes covered in cysts.
Characteristics
Biology
Radstags are descended from deer that survived the Great War, resulting in mutations such as bicephaly and the presence of a third pair of atrophied legs. These two smaller legs hang from the upper part of the chest. When they feel safe, they can be seen drinking from water sources, pasture grass or bushes or resting while lying on the ground.
Gameplay attributes
Most radstags will flee on instinct when the player character or a predator approaches too close or attacks. However, some variants escape this rule and can attack their opponents with hooves or headbutts.
