Albino radscorpion

The  is a new type of Radscorpion that is added to Fallout 3 in the Broken Steel add-on.

Characteristics
It is far more resistant to attacks than the Giant Radscorpion, and deals far greater damage. They are the same size as Giant Radscorpions and still drop 4 Radscorpion Poison Glands, but are milky-white in appearance and have red eyes instead of green.

Albino Radscorpions are incredibly powerful, their attacks are at par with the Super Mutant Behemothwithout poison damage. An Albino Radscorpion has about 75% as much health as a Behemoth (in other words, 3 times as much health as a Deathclaw). Their attacks also do the same massive amount of raw damage as a hit from a Behemoth, and additionally they have very powerful poison.

Albino Radscorpions have the unique ability to regenerate their health, which they do in daylight hours, which is ironic because albinos are vulnerable to sunlight in real life.

Albino Radscorpions can be found wandering the Wasteland, often near major roads, and will utterly slaughter any roaming NPCs they come across. On Very Hard they can kill the player in three hits and kill most NPCs in one.

Albino Radscorpions also have tendency to appear in front of the Tunnel when doing the Broken Steel mission Death From Above, and usually attack and kill the Brotherhood of Steel Knight standing guard. They can also sometimes be found in front of the Arlington Library, as you fast travel to it and appear in front of the door you can possibly spawn next to one, this is extremely dangerous if you have the difficulty on Very Hard.

Also, these nasty creatures appear far more often when a player is above level 20, as they have a tendency to actually replace Giant Radscorpions, so do not be surprised if you encounter two or more in a single battle!

Attacks
Though the Albino Radscorpion appears similar to the Giant Radscorpion, it in fact has much more health and seems to do significantly more damage. When encountered, they use similar tactics as a Giant Radscorpion--i.e., rush their unfortunate victim--and they have a similar weakness: they must be in melee range in order to do any damage. On Very Hard, with no perks, less than 15 DR, and an Endurance of 5 or less, an Albino Scorpion can kill you with one strike, surpassing even a Behemoth or Deathclaw's attack in power.
