Various organizations have used the FEV virus for experiments and their own agendas. In Nuka-World's Safari Adventure, the Gatorclaws are made from the hybridization of alligator and Jackson chameleon DNA along with a strain of FEV. In the Capital Wasteland, a scientist used the FEV to make giant fire ants that could breathe fire. With the FEV, the Enclave managed to create intelligent Deathclaws (though they were later all terminated). Of course, all super mutants are products of the FEV, though different factions of them come from different strains, which can make them vary in terms of size and intelligence. The albino male rats of Fallout and Fallout 2 are products of escaped lab rats from the West Tek Research Facility. The many creatures touched by the FEV were both accidental and purposeful. However, the soldiers involved with the experiments rebelled against the science staff and executed them all before the Great War. The experiments, despite the escapes, did find a way to produce super-soldiers. Labs in Appalachia experimented with a variety of strains, though some of their experiments ended up escaping into the wild. Vault-Tec began their own research efforts into the virus in some of their vault labs. It was believed to be the beginning of creating super soldiers for the Sino-American War. Chimpanzees were next, and some died of seizures caused by the virus.Īfter all these experiments, the FEV reached a point of a perfect success rate in lab experiments, doubling test subjects' intellect and increasing their size by 60 percent. In the same year, dogs got tested as well, with increased aggression but no increase in intelligence. This was dubbed the Super Mutant Program, and was quite unethical, as the experiment poisoned the water supply of a town called Huntersville to test long-term low-level exposure to FEV.
Shortly after, human test subject experiments began. All were found and eliminated except two pairs, which were never found.
Their size, dexterity, and intelligence increased, and they actually managed to escape their confinement. Rabbits came next in the FEV experiments, and they showed more aggression, especially the males.įast-forward to 2076, and 53 raccoons got infected with the newest strain of FEV. What was new, though, is they also displayed an increase in intelligence. They showed the same size and immunity increase. Mice were the next creatures to be successfully infected with FEV. The flatworms even got a new DNA structure, which showed the beginnings of the FEV being able to be passed on to the next generation. Flatworms were the next experiment and showed an increase in size as well as contagion resistance. Plants were experimented on but had no results. Single-celled organizations were experimented on with the batch in the year 2075, and the results were an immunity to radiation and infection.
The goal was to make a biological defense against any infections and the project was dubbed the "Pan-Immunity Virion Project."Ī particular batch that resulted from the research project, batch 10-011, was renamed the Forced Evolutionary Virus, and had a different structure from all other batches that the U.S. The Forced Evolution Virus originated from the research to both find a cure for the plague, as well as a way to defend against China's biological weapons. Before the Great War, there was a plague in the United States, simply called the "New Plague." China also was making biochemical weapons in the Sino-American War between them and the United States.
