Mole miner

Mole miners are creatures found in Appalachia in 2102.

Background
Trapped within their deteriorating mining suits, the mole miners are frenzied combatants who attack anything they perceive as a threat.

Biology
Clearly once human, the mole miners have degenerated into hunched, stout limbed forms. No longer capable of speech, they instead produce guttural moans and calls as a form of communication. They clearly posses great strength, being able to wield a missile launcher or combat shotgun with a single hand and high accuracy.

Gameplay attributes
Mole miners often operate in groups headed by a foreman. They are immediately hostile to any who approach, although they are seemingly friendly with mole rats. They will often mob a target, with shotgunners and melee attackers charging in as a heavily armed foreman provides fire support from a distance. They can quickly kill a weaker player character.
