A bloatfly is a common mutated pest resembling an oversized blow-fly, often found in the Capital Wasteland and the Mojave Wasteland.

CharacteristicsEdit

The bloatfly is a giant mutated blowfly. Bloatflies attack at long range peppering their prey with spine-bedecked larva launched from its abdomen. This supply of larva is seemingly inexhaustible, and unless evaded or eliminated, bloatflies will persecute an attacker relentlessly. They are covered in a green-brown carapace. Players can find Bloatflies wandering in the wastelands.

Bloatflies typically live in small groups of two to four individuals but can be encountered on their own.

NotesEdit

• Bloatflies can also be seen as a smaller species found around dead carcasses. It is not known why these did not mutate to a larger size.
• When killed by the player, they will give no experience points, much like the Radroach.
