Rad Child (Fallout: New Vegas)

Rad Child is a Fallout: New Vegas, Fallout Tactics and J.E. Sawyer's Fallout Role-Playing Game perk and a Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel skill (skills in this game work like perks do in other Fallout games).

You do not take immediate damage from radiation. In fact you gain extra healing while being exposed to it! However, radiation continues to build up in your system as normal.

Fallout: New Vegas
Healing bonuses only apply from different levels of radiation:
 * Minor radiation poisoning - HP +2 every second
 * Advanced radiation poisoning - HP +4 every second
 * Critical radiation poisoning - HP +6 every second
 * Deadly radiation poisoning - HP +8 every second

You will still die when you reach 1000 rads. This perk does not heal limbs.

This perk is often overlooked due to the high requirements (70 Survival and radiation sickness), but the effect is extremely potent, even with just the first level of radiation (which only gives -1 Endurance).

However, the greatest combat benefit for this perk is provided at critical or deadly radiation poisoning. There is a significant SPECIAL penalty (-3 END, -2 AGI, -1 STR for critical; an additional -1 STR for deadly), but at such high regeneration levels, the player becomes virtually immortal to most enemies, simply by healing faster than an enemy can deal damage. Exceptions would be high-damage-per-hit creatures like Deathclaws. In fact, the difference between even just minor and advanced Radiation Poisoning can be stark in terms of regenerating damage.

With this skill, Cain restores HP whenever he takes radiation damage.
