Presented a panel on fallout creatures at a con today and used my biology degree to validate and criticize design choices in equal measure

I also made a non-snowing version :)

Some fallout creature designs I’ve been playing around with. Thinking about naming them “screechers” first lad is based on pileated woodpeckers and the second being some sort of raptor. Mid sized, bipedal birds of death.

fallouttt horses. I don't have a snazzy name for them, they're just my silly little guys.

Transcript cause my handwriting is bad:

Fanged mouth - used for offence and defense. They are opportunistic predators and will often eat small animals like mice and lizards, or birds if they can catch them.

Bristles - Bristles on their withers/shoulder and on their croup are tough and sharp, meant to dissuade any predator who might be big enough to grab them or jump on their back. These are frequently cut down for the comfort of the horse and rider.

Spurs and secondary spurs - Spurs for defense. They are larger on males than on females. Not every horse has secondary spurs; Spurs are usually shaved down by farriers for workhorses or horses kept in herds to prevent injuries.

Three toed hind feet - toed hind feet give the hoof more grip when turning and on uneven terrain.

Standard bred horses are found all over. Decently healthy, decently strong and fast, they're good workhorses and riding horses both. Usually even tempered, they can be prone to fighting.

Heavy bred horses are usually workhorses or cart horses. They have good endurance and good health, but poor speed. They are calm horses, and don't tend to get aggravated easily.

Desert bred horses are fast and have good endurance, but they are badly tempered and difficult to train. They are favored mounts of Legionaries due to their intelligence and the ease of care, but they can frequently injure their riders.

So I may or may not have gotten a little carried away with some Fallout creature designs that have been bouncing around in my head for a while...

fallout universe chipmunks, called 'burrowbugs' by wastelanders, who mistake them for large, flightless woodland bugs due to their eye-like distended cheek pouches and mandible-like extraneous limbs.
