Centaur

Centaurs are misshapen, mutated creatures. They are a by-product of the Forced Evolutionary Virus, as they were created by tossing a varied mix of dogs, cats, brahmin and other animals into a FEV vat and seeing what came out the other end.

The Centaurs are not only created by the FEV, they also seem to live in an heavy radiated environment. Therefore they radiate everything around them.

Centaurs frequently travel in packs with floaters. They encompassed a large bulk of the masters armies and are commonly found with the nightkin and other remnants of the masters army who roam Northern California.

The Centaurs encountered in the Capital Wasteland are physically different from the Centaurs from the Core Region. More specifically, they appear to be missing the "dog head" appendage as well as the fleshly "feelers" beneath the main body. This may be the result of variations of FEV exposure. They trade these for 3 long, tentacle like tongues.

Appearances
Centaurs appear in Fallout, Fallout 2 and Fallout 3.
