Radroach (Fallout 76)

Radroaches are creatures found in Appalachia in 2102.

Background
These mutated Great American cockroaches, colloquially called "radroaches" or simply "giant cockroaches," are enlarged versions of the pre-War species that have increased in size, presumably due to atomic fallout caused by the Great War.

Biology
The radroach has evolved, for now it can use wings to leap off and attack its enemies. The radroach has also become much bigger than its traditional descendants. However, it is still weak to most physical attacks. They also have a limited ability to climb walls.

Gameplay attributes
Unlike in some of the previous games, the player character suffers from slight radiation damage when hit by a radroach.

Radroaches can sometimes be found infesting seemingly empty rooms, hiding in and behind desks or other furniture as well as on walls or ceilings. They will emerge and attack when the player character enters close proximity. Sometimes glowing radroaches are stuck under the flooring usually characterized by a green glow on the floor seemingly from nothing. The radroach can be dislodged if the player character uses a melee attack on the glowing part of the ground.

Radroaches come in many different physical sizes, large and small, but this does not seem to relate in any way to their toughness -- one will encounter small tough radroaches and large weak radroaches, and vice versa. Radroaches are also sometimes found to have considerable extra health compared to other radroaches of the same level, even at level 1; when it happens, this extra health does not seem to correlate in any way to their physical size, appearance or the resistances displayed in V.A.T.S.
