Mod:DUST Survival Simulator/The Cloud

The Cloud is a lethal prewar chemical weapon in Fallout:DUST.

Sierra Madre Cloud
The Cloud released from the Sierra Madre's ventilation systems had engulfed the Casino to the point of blocking out the sun.

An chemical compound smelling and tasting of copper, sulfur, and plastic, it killed many of the Casino's inhabitants and transformed those in hazmat suits into the ghost people. Whatever its nature, the Cloud is a corrosive compound, slowly deteriorating both organic and inorganic matter, which makes gas masks, environmental suits, and power armor ineffective protection.

The Ghost People were Sierra Madre staff trapped in their hazmat suit when the Cloud eroded the suit clasps. Slow exposure to the toxin mutated them, their bodies trapped within their suits and forced to adapt into a stiffening entity composed of pockets of pressurized gas, glowing green fluid, and tissue that seemingly draws nourishment from the Cloud.

SM-5
A variant of the Cloud designed by NCR scientists in the early 2280's, SM-5 is a more potent alteration of the Sierra Madre toxin. It kills its victims and corrodes more quickly than the SM strain, as a result none of the Sierra Madre Ghost People are encountered in the Mojave.
