Cyborg (organism)



A cyborg is a biological organism, (human, ghoul, super mutant, dog etc.) whose physical or mental abilities are extended beyond normal limitations by either electronic, mechanical or robotic elements built into the body (i.e. Implants).

Fallout series

 * Cyberdogs - dogs with at least a mechanical part and an organic part. Their physical and mental abilities have been modified robotically and cybernetically, creating a kind of canine-robot hybrids. Unique model include Gabe (enhanced with huge intake of psycho) and K-9 (enhancements to the brain and vocal organs). Notable cyberdogs include Robodog (pet of Dr. Henry), Rex (pet of The King) and Roxie (temporary companion of the Courier).
 * Robobrains - robots that use the brains of criminals or chimpanzees suspended in bio med gel as their central processing unit. Notable robobrains include Toto (pet robobrain of Dorothy), Skynet (advanced AI system), and Super-Ego (powerful robobrain in Big MT).

Fallout

 * The Master - fused to an Overseer's chair and neurolinked to a computer which generates its speech in real-time from various voice samples.
 * Lieutenant - Lieutenant has a few augmentations such as a bionic eye instead of his right eye and cybernetic cerebral enhancements.
 * Tangler - cut from Fallout, Tangler was to have a cybernetic hand that would have been obtainable when killed.

Fallout 2

 * Frank Horrigan - fused to a modified version of Enclave power armor specifically made to encapsulate Horrigan's bulk, Horrigan cannot separate from his power armor as it acts as life support keeping him alive by pumping him full of chems.
 * Skynet - An advanced AI, when placed within a robobrain. Especially if the Chosen One used the Cybernetic brain that Skynet helped develop.

Fallout 3

 * Star Paladin Cross - Cross has been enhanced, by scribe Rothchild, to where she no longer needs to eat or sleep after she sustained critical injuries protecting Owyn Lyons in the field.
 * Professor Calvert - Calvert's brain was extracted from his body and put into a jar to keep him alive for 200 years.
 * Lone Wanderer - only with Cyborg perk.

Fallout: New Vegas

 * Robert House - kept alive for over two hundred years via a hermetically sealed life support chamber, House controls the computers and PDQ-88b Securitrons through his "command helmet" which is bolted into the top of his skull. Notably, House also has a food pump to deliver nutrients directly into his stomach, an enhancement around his heart that most likely acts as a pacemaker, and what can be assumed as a waste pump around his crotch.
 * Christine Royce - forcefully implanted at the Big MT Research and Development Center, Christine has had several cybernetic modifications implanted to her brain increasing her intellect and processing capabilities and allowing her to do complicated equations and math relatively easily. However, complications during surgery have affected parts of her brain, such as the Broca's area and primary visual cortex, possibly giving her Broca's aphasia as she is unable to comprehend reading or writing and is completely unable to write a simple sentence.
 * Think tank - a special type of brain bot and the invention of the Big MT company. A Think Tank consists of hovering, robotic spheres housing a human brain suspended in bio med gel with three monitors coming down from the main body, two monitors depict eyes (that also function as optic sensors) and one below that displays a mouth. There are only six Think Tanks in the world, and those include, Doctors Borous, Dala, Klein, Mobius, 0, and 8.
 * Courier - Becomes a cyborg after their visit to Big MT. The brain, heart, and spine have been removed and replaced by high-tech artificial mock-ups of the organs adding durability to the Courier.
 * Lobotomites - humans captured by the Big MT and surgically altered with "enhancements" like the complete removal of the brain replaced with artificial components, like Tesla coils. This has removed any semblance of the person they were before and left them with on most base instincts and motor functions. Notably, aggression and the sex drive are extremely heightened. Dr. Dala has observed that when two lobotomites are left alone, 43% of the time they will fight for dominance or have sex.

Fallout 4

 * Conrad Kellogg - a century-old mercenary who works for The Institute had undergone several cybernetic procedures to enhance his brain and weakening limbs with a brain augmenter and a limb actuator, as well as Cybernetic pain inhibitor for more work-related issues. This is just the surface of Kellog's implants, however. Further updates would include synthetic eyes.
 * Vault 118 dwellers - inhabited by custom-built robobrains that have retained their original personalities. These robobrains are almost entirely made up of self-centered celebrities and wealthy billionaires from before the Great War, however, because of the imperfect nature of extracting a human brain from a body and keeping it in a robot frame has made their personalities become evermore skewed and exaggerated. This includes Santiago Avida, Gilda Broscoe. Keith McKinney, Ezra Parker, Bert Riggs and Julianna Riggs.
 * John-Caleb Bradberton - once the powerful founder and CEO of Nuka-Cola Corporation is now nothing but a cryonically preserved head kept alive by machines created for the LEAP-X Program. The procedure to keep Bradberton preserved like this has left him with no autonomy and only the ability to talk and operate doors in his personal holding vault. Bradberton views himself as a monster now trapped in a living hell of his own making.

Fallout 76

 * Biv E. Ridge - a robobrain acquired by Lewis to help taste test Nukashine.

Fallout Tactics

 * B1000 - a unique cybernetic brahmin covered with living brahmin tissue over a metal T-bone.
 * Reavers - the reavers are technologically strong in cybernetics enhancements and surgical augmentations, often use for their body, mostly scanning sensor that allow at least to sweep an area of twenty feet, detecting even a person who is sneaking. They are also known to use enhanced eye sight, hand surgical implants, central processors and valve-tube augmentation.
 * Simon Barnaky - after being kidnapped by the Calculator, Simon Barnaky became a unique humanoid brain bot. It consists of a large humanoid robotic suit equipped with a cannon on its left arm that a combination of a .50 machine gun and a missile launcher as well as a large claw on its right arm for close combat housing a human brain connected to a robotic program.

Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel

 * Attis - Attis possesses a mechanical eye instead of his right eye.
 * Psycho ghouls - the high member of the Church of the Lost have all an electronic targeting eye instead of their right eye.

SPECIAL

 * In Fallout 2 and Fallout: New Vegas, the player can make themselves a cyborg by buying Implants from various doctors in Fallout 2 or Dr. Usanagi in Fallout: New Vegas.
 * In Fallout 3, the player can make the Lone Wanderer a cyborg with the Cyborg perk.
 * And in Van Buren and J.E. Sawyer's Fallout Role-Playing Game the player would have been able to obtain the NEMEAN and PHOENIX implants.
