Bloatfly

A bloatfly is a creature found in Appalachia, the Capital Wasteland, the Commonwealth and the Mojave Wasteland.

Background
The bloatfly is an evolution of either the Musca domestica (common housefly) or Tabanus genera of biting horse fly. Tentatively classified as part of the Tabanidae family in the order Diptera, class Insecta, phylum Arthropoda and kingdom Animalia by the Enclave.

It adapted to its enlarged size with a unique gland that enables it to balance and maintain speed despite its size. The gland itself may be toxic to consume. Bloatflies may explode upon death.

Variants
They attack in groups, and may pose an additional threat based on their ability to attack from a distance.
