Intelligent Deathclaw

Intelligent Deathclaws are characters

Background
Intelligent Deathclaws look similar to other Deathclaws and will attack if provoked, but are unique in that they can carry on conversation and are not immediately hostile. The creatures were injected with FEV by the Enclave, resulting in their increased intelligence. They realized they were destined for slavery, utilized by the Enclave for soldiers, and "played dumb" until they could gain their freedom. The Enclave realized the deathclaws had gained more intelligence than intended, and plan to exterminate the group.

The deathclaws are led by Gruthar and study the similarities between deathclaw and human development in Vault 13. Gruthar feels guilt for participating in the abduction of the former Vault 13 inhabitants, despite being forced to do so by the Enclave.
