Spore Plant (Fallout: New Vegas)

Spore plants are creatures found in Vault 22 in the Mojave wasteland in 2281. If all spore plants are descended from those found in Vault 22 then their seeds have spread as far as Arroyo in northern California by 2241.

Gameplay attributes
They have two methods of attacking. Because of its stationary nature, its most common attack is a spike projectile which it spits at its enemies. This projectile has a very long range and can potentially be very harmful if exposed to the attack too long. If an enemy gets too close, the mutant plant will lunge at them and bite with its thorned maw.

Spore plant
Found frequently throughout Vault 22, Zion Canyon and sparsely in Big MT, these creatures are weak and pose little to no threat, even to low level characters.

Giant spore plant
A giant and much tougher version of the regular spore plant that is frequently found in some of the caves of Zion National Park and can be sparsely found in the Big MT.

Dionaea Muscipula (Old World Blues)
A unique specimen of the spore plant found in The Big MT north east of the Signal Hills transmitter and is the most powerful variant of the spore plant. It spawns when the quest Field Research is activated.

Appearances
Spore plants appear in Fallout 2 and Fallout: New Vegas, along with the add-ons Honest Hearts and Old World Blues. The giant spore plant only appears in Honest Hearts.

Behind the scenes
Dionaea muscipula is the scientific name of the Venus Flytrap.
