Alien (Fallout 76)

Aliens are creatures in Appalachia.

Background
The extraterrestrial aliens were discovered and captured by the Appalachian Enclave's Research Division, and were brought to Enclave Research Facility Site J as test subjects. However, all collected data was later redacted, simply relaying that the subjects were to be destroyed.

Characteristics
The creatures will shoot at their enemies with alien blasters. They wear white and orange spacesuits.

Locations
Three alien corpses are located in the Z-05 specimen chamber of the Enclave research facility.

Behind the scenes

 * The aliens had existed within the game's files since release and were first implemented as corpses in the Steel Dawn update.
 * The Fallout 76 Vault Dweller's Survival Guide describes aliens as an enemy encounter. However, living aliens were not added until the Invaders from Beyond update, and do not appear in standard enemy encounters.
 * The Bethesda Game Studios Austin team had internally discussed doing "something fun" with the Zetans prior to the Fallout 76 launch. This ultimately became Invaders from Beyond, the first public challenge added to Fallout 76.
