Z-14 Pepsinae DNA splicing lab is a location in the east area of Big MT in 2281.
Layout[]
Outside of the building, there is an Old World flag, left by Ulysses. Upon entering the building, there is a lobby area with several desks and filing cabinets. A few piles of mutilated body parts are on the floor. On the left side, there is a deluxe chemistry set on the table, which can be used to make chems or stimpaks. Several proton throwing axes can be found in this area.
There are several cazadores in the lower area, with a few hiding behind doors in containment cells. A skeleton with a laser rifle and several microfusion cells resides within one of the containment cells. The medical lab behind the large main door contains a unique cazador named Specimen 73.
Notable loot[]
- Atomic-valence tri-radii-oscillator - On Specimen 73.
- Auto-Doc Upgrade: Implant M-5 - On the surgical table in the room with Specimen 73.
Notes[]
Dr. Borous mentions his research in this lab led to the creation of cazadores by splicing tarantula hawk wasp DNA.[1]
Appearances[]
The Z-14 Pepsinae DNA splicing lab appears only in the Fallout: New Vegas add-on Old World Blues.
Behind the scenes[]
Regarding the name of the facility, Pepsinae are a subfamily of the spider wasp family that includes the inspiration for cazadores, tarantula hawk wasps.

- ↑ Borous: "You may know me as the Head Chief First Researcher of Labs Z-9 and Z-14. There I fought valiantly to preserve rattlesnake DNA, and put it right where it belongs, in the husk of another feared predator. Oh, and the tarantula hawk. Can't splice enough, I always say, especially if you can make a magnificent Cazador!"
