Floater (Fallout 3)

The floater is a creature cut from the final version of Fallout 3. Three variants appear in concept art only.

Background
Floaters are hostile mutant creatures that likely originated from the FEV-infected flatworms mentioned in the FEV experiment disk, and were later further enhanced by the Master's experiments.

Biology
Through producing and storing noxious gases in their floatation bladders, floaters are able to hover above the ground.

Lamprey floater
This is a new version of floater much like the basic version but the mouth is only on one side and has teeth, and it possesses an eye above it.

Manowar tendril floater
This new version of a floater possesses an eye in the place of a regular floater's mouth.

Needletooth floater
This is a new version of a floater that is notably different from the basic version. It resembles a spider, but with a human head.
