Immune to radiation

Introduction
Being immune to radiation is a trait that several creatures in the wasteland posses. It could also seem that most NPC characters have the same trait, even though some characters, such as Micky (Fallout 3) have been killed when drinking dirty or irradiated water. Following NPCs never seem to be affected no matter how long they are in a radioactive area.

Characteristics
It seems that some, like the Swampfolk from Fallout 3 Point Lookout are completely unaffected in their health by radiation despite the obvious bith defects the presumably suffered from radioactive affects changing them before birth.

Similar Ghouls are not adversely affected by radiation. In fact they may in contrast receive healing from exposure to radiation.

The player can by special Perks gain somewhat immunity from radiation as well. For instance will the Lead Belly trait give you 50% less radiation when consuming irradiated food and drink. And Rad Absorption will further slow down the players rad absorption, without actually creating immunity.

On other pages such as Swampfolk, the symbol usually used to show radiation is being used to illustrated immunity to radiation.
