Super Mutant
You are a brutal, mutated human, forced to evolve from thoughtless experiments by the twisted science of the pre-and post-war world. Infected with the Forced Evolutionary Virus (F.E.V.), your body has mutated into a tall, muscular killing machine, filled with rage.
You could have originated from the Master’s army at the Mariposa military base, California, created as he experimented on unwilling human victims, splitting into one of the factions upon his death to attack or rebuild the wasteland with its survivors. Your origins could be rooted in the Evolutionary Experimentation Program of Vault 87, whose super mutant groups terrorize the Capital Wasteland. You could have been abducted from the Commonwealth and exposed to the F.E.V. by the Institute and disposed of back into the wasteland to fend for yourself in small bands of raiders. Or finally, you could have been a resident of Huntersville, Appalachia, whose water supply was contaminated with the virus and the mutations went unchecked.
Although these super mutants share the same qualities, the groups formed from the three strains haven’t mixed, and there is little evidence they have met one another. While some groups have migrated or moved in their lifetime, none have traveled far enough to encounter one another, so where your quests take place will likely dictate your origin.
Trait: Forced Evolution
Your initial Strength and Endurance attributes are increased by +2 each, and your maximum Strength and Endurance are increased to 12, but your maximum Intelligence and Charisma are both reduced to 6. You may not have more than 4 ranks in any skill. You are completely immune to radiation and poison damage. You stand over seven feet tall, and your body is bulky and muscular. Your skin is green, yellow, or grey, regardless of what color it was when you were human. You do not seem to age, but you are sterile. You can only wear armor that has been made to fit a super mutant.
