Mindless ghoul

Mindless ghouls or feral ghouls are creatures in Fallout.

Biology
Similar to ghouls, a maddened ghoul's body has been ravaged by necrosis, and as such look like nothing more than shambling corpses. Differentiating them from normal ghouls, though, is the equally ravaged mind of mindless ghoul; they have long since lost their sense of reason or higher thought and as such follow basic animal instinct.

Gameplay attributes
As mindless ghouls have long since lost their ability to reason or think in-depth, they have relatively underdeveloped tactics when in combat. They simply shuffle towards their closest enemy, and the player often has little to fear when engaging in combat with isolated individuals. Mindless ghouls often travel in groups, though, and as such can pose a threat when greatly outnumbering their foes. As fighters they are meager at best.

Mindless ghoul
Mindless ghouls pose a meager threat to the player as individuals, but can become a far more dangerous and fearsome foe when shambling forward in large groups.

Appearances
Mindless ghouls appear only in Fallout.
