Mirelurk King

Mirelurk Kings are seemingly the brood leader of the Mirelurks.

Physiology
Mirelurk Kings are tall, about a foot taller than an average-sized man, and physically similar to a human in that it posesses two arms, legs and a head in a similar layout to a human.

Nevertheless, Mirelurk Kings are fiercely aggressive, although not quite as resilient or powerful as Mirelurk Hunters, they are still fast enough to pose quite a threat. They are fairly weak to concentrated fire, and are only realy dangerous if encountered alongside other Mirelurks.

Unique to the Mirelurk species, Mirelurk Kings also project a wave-like attack from a distance, not unlike the Brain Bot's, which causes moderate amounts of damage.

Given the humanoid shape of Mirelurk Kings, and some of the concept art, it is entirely possible that Mirelurk Kings are more than leaders of Mirelurk broods, but an evolutionary leap all of their own, seen in artwork using clubs and other tools much like neolithic man.

Produce
Mirelurk Kings only contain Soft Shell Mirelurk Meat, even more powerful in healing than ordinary Mirelurk Meat.

Location
Mirlurk Kings can be found mainly in submerged water environments. One such area is in the entry to the Rivet City Bow (The snapped off last part of the aircraft carrier). Another place that many Mirlurk Kings can be found is Rock Creek Caverns. There are also several within the Sunken Chambers during the Oasis quest.
