Fire ants are a variation of
giant ants that is even more mutated than the "regular" giant bugs. Their name comes from their ability to literally breathe fire, similarly to the
Fire Geckos from the
Core Region.
The fire ants were created by
Doctor Lesko, a
Capital Wasteland scientist, and can only be found in the area around
Grayditch and
Marigold Station. He was attempting to return giant ants to their normal size over a couple of generations through genetic manipulation but as he reasons, one small tweak of an error has left the ants with a completely different
mutation.
