Tadpole badges are a form of currency in Fallout 76, introduced in the Wild Appalachia update.
Background[]
Tadpole badges are used by the Pioneer Scouts to mark progression through the Order of the Tadpole. They are earned by completing World Challenges set by Scout Leader Jaggy at the Pioneer Scout camp. Three badges are required for completing the Order of the Tadpole, and promotion to Possum Scout.
