Thanks alot when I get Time I while certainley study this

The trouble with immortality is it takes forever to check on....

At least three ghouls are known to have existed pre-war, making them over 200 years old. Carol from FO3, Roy and his gang from FO3 (there is some question about Roy, but both Bessie and Micheal say they are pre-war), Desmond from Point Lookout, and Harold from FO1, 2 and 3. More could likely exist, but those are the ones I know of. More ghouls appear all the time, all it seems to take is sufficient exposure to the right kind of radiation and you to can join the ranks of the necrotically enhanced. The main problem with getting an accurate census of ghouls is that a large number of them go insane and turn feral. In the end, no one really knows how long a ghoul will live a natural life though.

Yea just a bit

ghouls i think wpuld be pretty cool immortality for a skin condition.... sign me up... I'd just find my self a mask or a helmet... hmm ghoul with power armour... it could work

So basically, all that Moira's doing when she tells you to expose yourself to high rad-levels is sending you down the road to beginning ghoulism.

Thanks a lot girl... -.-

(Don't get me wrong, I -love- Moira. The cheerful way with which she persuades you into sending yourself to your doom is just... refreshing *g*)

You can turn into a ghoul in Fallout 3? That would be tight.

I doubt you could cure ghoulism, there is just to much damage to the body to be able to reverse the effects. The closest real world illness would probably be leprosy, which is curable, but the sores and wounds that it causes are very hard to heal.

Incidentally, ghouls in the original games were incapable of wearing armour or even running. I`m not sure i it`s because they`re too weak or because it hurts too much to having something pressing and chaffing against your open flesh though, or both.

Lenny in FO2 can wear any armor.
