Radstag (Fallout 4)

Radstags are creatures descended from deer that live in the Commonwealth in 2287.

Background
Radstag descended from the common deer in the Commonwealth after their ancestors were exposed to great quantities of radiation in the fallout of the Great War. Due to this overexposure of radiation, radstag have two heads, less fur, and are sometimes covered in cysts attributable to radiation exposure.

Characteristics
Docile and flighty a majority of the time, however if further provoked a Radstag (male or female) will jump to attack. More commonly, male radstag will attack upfront rather than flee.

Biology
Radstag are a genus descended from Deer in The Commonwealth. They are Polycephalic, or two headed. Instead of one head or the other being a limp 'tumor' on the body, they can both swivel and turn on their own. It is theorized that perhaps either head controls one side of the body, although from afar, it typically seems that one head does the motor control and the other keeps a look out for predators. Among their oddities, radstag have two developed legs sticking out of their chest. These legs are limp and useless, for the exception of being able to bend when a Radstag lays down, but due to this they can be classified as hexapodal.

Radstag are usually brown furred and patchy in places, with small puss filled cysts from radiation covering some more sensitive parts of their body. In general, the flanks, feet, head, and snout. However on regular Radstag and Doe, this does not seem to be common - and instead, on their rabid and glowing counterparts, the cysts appear abundant and nearly cover the entire body.

Many believe the radstag to be a sterile creature at first glance, however this is not the case. Radstag can reproduce successfully, despite the difficulties of being polycephalic. Many groups of radstag travel with Yearlings that have an extremely varying coat from their adult counterparts. Radstag yearlings are a more honey color of brown covered in lines of white spots, although already they are beginning to lose their pelt in patches.

Gameplay attributes
They usually travel in packs of up to four with typically one radstag and several radstag doe. They can also sometimes be found with radstag yearlings that sport more colorful pelts than other adult radstag, with spots. Male radstag can come in several Legendary variants, as well as other types. Shooting a radstag in the head, usually the right head, does the most damage.

While Radstags are generally non-hostile and will usually ignore or run away from a player, companions may attack them if they stray too close.
