It... is us... we... are it...

The Scorched are humans who are infected with the Scorched Plague.

Background[edit]

Both humans and creatures can be infected by the plague.[1] Scorched are able to use melee weapons and firearms. They wear tattered civilian wear, military uniforms and faction outfits such as the varied dress of the Responders or armor of the raiders. Their vocalizations refer to themselves in the plural, with typical phrases being "we are one" or "never alone."[2]

Following the elimination of the Scorchbeast Queen and subsequent vaccination of the settlers and raiders who have returned to Appalachia, the Scorched influence on the region is in decline. Fixtures comprised of the dismembered corpses of Scorched are not uncommonly found mounted onto the walls of outposts and strongholds claimed by regional factions such as the Blood Eagles or the Cult of the Mothman.

Gameplay[edit]

Scorched are affected by the Zealot's legendary effect. They will attack anything or anyone that is not infected with the Scorched Plague.

Variants[edit]

Variants are not distinguished visually and will instead wear tattered versions of outfits determined by the location's theme, such as asylum outfits near Fort Defiance, skiing gear around Top of the World or Responder gear around Morgantown Airport.

Appearances[edit]

The Scorched appear in Fallout 76.

Bugs[edit]

  • PCPC Scorched may be frozen in place and the player can damage them, and they may still be standing after they are killed. The church in Helvetia is a major site for this.
  • PCPC When a Scorched is posing as a petrified corpse, a headshot kill with a ranged weapon may send them ragdolling into the air.
