Vault 96: What is Specimen X-001? | Fallout 76 Lore
Ойындар
Advertised as An Ark for the Atomic Age, Vault 96 was never what it seemed.
It's greatest secret remains a mystery, as in cryogenics bay 86, locked behind military access controls, a single cryo pod houses Specimen X-001.
Accessed only by the vault’s automated systems its genetic samples exhibited a transference capability and… were used to create a unique shifting mutation. All attempts to identify what the specimen was failed. No vitals, no measurements, no source data. Only an ID number.
So what is Specimen X-001?
In today’s video we explore two different theories to try and answer this question. Going back through the events that took place in Vault 96, as well as investigating some potential links between the mutated creatures from Vault 96 and the mutated enemies we face in Daily Ops.

I think the idea that specimen x0001 is a flatwoods monster to be less likely than the possibility that the flatwoods monsters are actually the product OF x0001 merging with the aliens, either accidentally or deliberately, and as such it's more likely to be something like The Thing or, as you say, the alien beasties from Prey. My reasoning: the tiphons share similarities with the beastie from John Carpenter's The Thing, an 80s sci-fi horror film, whereas the experiments themselves, and the description of what happened to the bloatflies, seem to be heavily influenced by The Fly, also an 80s sci-fi horror film.

When I was looking through this Vault all I could think was "Five of the most intelligent people on the planet couldn't find a way to sabotage the machinery?". I mean, what did they do, just rush the Assaultrons with clubs? There are several places in the bunker without constantly trained turrets. Figure your plan out, sabotage one of the doors to those areas, either build yourself something explosive because that's actually pretty easy with the materials they had on hand and they would have had the knowledge to do so or otherwise arm yourself, crack the door open and take out anything you can, repeat, profit. Like, yeah, I'm making it sound easier than it really would be. But it's like the four that were left at the end just Leeroy Jenkins it.

I like the idea of it being a Typhon, either a Mimic or a Phantom. Mimics can become Weavers which can become poltergeists Phantoms are resurrected humans by Weavers. But the key note to think about is that Prey (2017) isn't an Alien game per se, it's a Cosmic Horror. the coral is created as a nest for a greater Typhon being to come along and devour. You take damage if you try to scan it which parallels the human mind breaking when gazing upon a Lovecraftian Elder God. The reason I state this is due to Fallout's repeated references to Outer/Elder Gods. So I'd theory it's an Easter egg to both Prey (2017) and it's ongoing In-Universe Cosmic Horror.
Would be hell of a time to enter some new vault in the future only for your compass to display hostile readings and then the junk items start moving around.

All of the known mutations at 6:30 are the serums we use to get those, except the Cryokinesis... We actually do have a cryptid that seems to be able to use a form of teleportation and transference, the Mothman. As well as possibly being able to use mental abilities, though thats questionable. I think X-001 however is related to the Interloper... or its something new.

Technically if you break down the mutations then the most likely answer is, its whatever the player character is in the Fallout franchise. Its never really explained what we are and why we can do what no one else in storyline can. Cause we do everything that is listed. We easily teleport, can deal with fire, cold, and electrc damage better than any NPC or creature. We have a bit of psy powers in that we are so easily able to manipulate NPCs through voice chat options. We can phase materials into built objects really easily. We have knowledge of other player characters and events even though their is no direct way we should know about things, which ties into the jumping or spreading of mutations between subjects even though they are sealed. Much like every time we are sealed in a vault.

always the possibility of it being some kind of Lovecraftian inspired creature from beyond reality, after all, it wouldn't be the first time eldritch beings were hinted at in Fallout lore.
while I'm sure that this was just supposed to be a reference to Prey, i would just like to note that we know the Enclave is the remnant of former US government and remained in contact with surviving Vaults well after the bombs fell. iirc they contacted the overseer of vault 101 during the events of fallout 3

On a side note, Prey is a really good game and everyone should try it and Outter Worlds.
Another thing linking the enclave here is the data was being transferred out to other installations via satellite...and who has a satellite, the enclave satellite the korvac Muldoon.
The Idea that X-001 is a Typhon would be a horrifying one; the ending of Prey 2016 implied that if even a Single One of them made it to Earth or even someone with too many of their Nuromods it would be apocalyptic in a way that makes Nuclar War look tame. As would X-001 if it's really a Typhon... The only saving grace would be if it was the equivalent to the "Morgan Yu" or through some Temporal shenanigans was actually Morgan from one of the endings where "IT" doesn't choose to go on a murderous rampage. A normal Phantom variant wouldn't have all those abilities at once but what pops out at the very end with potential experience with the full gamut of Typhon Nuromods might be able to do all those things.

Bethesda's Prey came out in 2017 not 2016.
Aside from the fact that it's from a different game, the Typhon theory makes the most sense. I don't think the Flatwoods Monster's teleportation is genetic. Also, from the Creation Club, you can get the Prey spacesuit as an add-on. I'm probably reaching, but that could be an indicator that Prey and Fallout exist in the same universe.

The researchers fields of expertice all suggest that the Flatwoods Monster is the result of the research in Vault 96. Consider that the team was put together with foreknowledge of the task ahead. You had a microbiologist, a geneticist, a programmer, an aeronautics engineer and a roboticist. The vault was also equipped with both automaton fabricators and genetic engineering facilities. This means the end product would be a genetically modified cybernetic creature with flight capabilities. The next clue is the petri dishes as three mutations are abilities the Flatwoods monster has; these are regeneration, venom and electrokinesis. Finally the Shifting ability is uniquely associated with this creature. As for why the petri dishes suddenly developed identical traits or how teleportation fits into this is strange but the purple glow of the Flatwoods monsters eyes could be a clue as the Fallout Bible has this to say: "the psykers in Fallout 1 show some pretty over-the-top mutations that could take the world to Childhood's End faster than you can say "uh, his eyes are glowing?"" So what you may have here is Zetans who have been exposed to the FEV resulting in the manifestation of psychic powers who are then brainwashed or killed before being cybernetically grafted to advanced power suit technology with flight capabilities and deployed for field testing in Appalachia where they'll be mistaken for the local boogyman.

I don't know if I'm the only one, but as I was playing and encountering all of this info in-game, and then investigating more about this Vault and Specimen X-01... It rememebered me a lot, A LOT, of "A Dead World" a Prototype and Fallout crosover story. I know, I know, this isn't a serious comment, I know Bethesda would never go around and be like "let's make a reference to a fanfic", I'm just saying they have a lot of similarities. For those who don't know, Prototype is a game with a virus called Blacklight, that gives it's infected, pretty much, the same characteristics that Specimen X-01 has, and in this crossover, Vault-tec managed to capture an infected, and put him inside a locked pod in a Vault. Is a good story, and again, I'm not saying this is what Specimen X-01 is, it's just a fun comparison.
I actually liked Bethesda's "Prey" game. I also figured this was a reference to said game.. That it was a Typhon in that area. Not everyone seems to like that game but I really liked it at least.. Hoping that game will be continued at some point but I have a bad feeling it wont. ( I am glad though that I am not the only one that thought this. Since you mentioned them in the video as well. )

Enclaves formulas for mutations are likely a direct result of this vault and further searching the Enclave white springs bunker and the missions you are sent on allows you to discover some hunter/researcher's notes on the strange creatures known before the nukes and aside from super mutants and other fev creatures there are a few creatures that make a appearance: the mothman, zetans, the old gods(the sculptor in fo3, the monster at the bottom of lucky hole mine, Cold in the new update of 76, and the other interference from the paranormal in the games), the other genetic anomalies like the tunnelers and wanamingos, then there are the floaters and pits creatures. What if fev is not what we were told it was and it was extracted from something it would explain why they were never able to stabilize it if it wasn't really created.

Maybe it is related to the interloper... i dont think that it is related to zetans at all... basically because I think that Vault-tec and the zetans were either working together or part of each other. I always have had the suspition that all these experiements are linked to an external being experimenting on an allien planet... meaning that the zetans either inflitrated Vault-tec or created vault-tec through human proxies in order to analyze humans and the earth fauna and flora, as it seems humans were one of the few races to actually repel their invasion... humans took their mothership later on and destroy a second incoming mothership. That DLC gave some light to some of those suspitions back then. I dont see how mutating people and understanding human phisiology could be more interesting for humans surviving the apocalypse than for aliens... I also dont think that Vault tec and the enclave were working together but more likely like a government shadow organization they found out this work and piggyback them and stole all the data for their own research and experimentation. Regarding the escape of mutated specimens... as far as I know that was done by the "president" at the time wanting to take control remotely of the silos by creating a level 1 emergency situation... but failed internally and even MODUS decided to exterminate them all, as they not only comprimised the enclave, but also everyone else including the "country"... hence it was defined as inherently evil and destroyed ... you can see also from the enclave members (at least the ones that we got holotapes from) that they were not expecting anything of this to happen, but only the madmen at the top did it... therefore I dont think that the enclave at the end is the ultimate bad buy ... they are twisted... but I would say that they are neutral evil more than 100% evil. I think that there has to be something else than meets the eye... I even think that the Interloper is tied to all of this... maybe the Interloper is the reason why the zetans are so keen to invade Earth?? Who knows.. But nonetheless... I think that your video was awesome

Something you only mentioned, is that when the x-001 sample was analyzed, the result was as if it didn’t have anything to register. It certainly sounds like something that would happen with a typhon sample, given that they can seemingly imitate any inert material. On the other hand, they also have the ability to control electronics in Prey, which there doesn’t seem to be any sign of here. The alternative is that, possibly, the creature is something from the supernatural side of Fallout. We know how much Bethesda loves their Lovecraft references. With that in mind, this sounds more like a Shoggoth, which is VERY similar to a Typhon with it’s mimicking ability.

(SPOILER WARNING FOR PREY) If it is the Typhon, then them not altering/controlling the tech in the Vault can be explained: they hadn't reached the point where they could make Technopaths yet. Think about it, Technopaths are shown to be at least a different subtype of Typhon in their ecology, and we don't see them in Prey until the infestation grows worse. Same thing with the Nightmare, it doesn't show up until the infestation gets worse, and until Morgan becomes more powerful via Neuromods (especially Typhon-based ones). Using this info, and the fact that Appalachia isn't covered in Mimics, Coral, or has an Apex actively eating it, we can assume that the Typhon infestation was killed early in development, and as such Appalachia doesn't have to worry about becoming Prey 2: Fallout Edition. That, or again, it's just a reference, and it didn't actually happen, or it is just tied to the Interloper or another Cryptid we haven't seen yet. Still, would be fun to hear the two universes are loosely tied to each other, or to hear the Enclave began fucking with the same shit that got Talos-1 to become a big, orbital paperweight.

Just a theory about the Flatwoods Monster. I think it's a normal Zetan alien but they require certain specific nutrients that aren't found in a large enough quantity so it's body is more or less shriveling up to conserve itself while it adapts to the nutrients around it. I don't think it's going to continue to devolve, but unless it gets on a regular diet of its alien nutrients, I think it's just going to stay the same. As for it's teleportation? I think it's just a specialized recon unit. That's just my take on it.
When I saw X-001 I though megaman X finally got a sibling.
Hm. Good video. Were I to guess combining both theories might be a viable answer. Zetans trying to harness the Prey critters gives us Flatwoods monsters. Specimen X001 therefore could be a captured Flatwoods. The “spreading” mutation gives an in-game lore explanation for the double-mutation events and so on.
Oooo buddy. I had forgotten about this! Good stuff man!

i think x0001 is a FEV mutant tbh. FEV mutants are infertile but can reproduce asexualy as was seen in the flat worms exposed to FEV. So, perhaps the specimen's ability to infect other organic material was a mutation that WesTek was able to create in this specimen to circumvent that. Furthermore, WesTek did work with Vault Tech, as they provided the ZAX computer system that WesTek used for their research. So, perhaps the US Gov (in the months before the bombs) gave Valt Tech their most promising specimen to protect and continue research on as the WesTek lab was a major target and the Mariposa Base was also at risk (though ultimately unharmed) so as to ensure at least some of their research survived.

I don't actually think it is either a typhon or a flatwoods monster. To me, the flatwood monster seems more like a crazy alien scientist with a specially designed battlesuit, whose every ability is mechanical. And i don't think they'd reference another game like that. What i think, instead, is that specimen X-001 is an entity like the interloper or visitor, a weird and highly alien creature found on Earth. The descriptions and logs about X-001 give of a very eldritch horror vibe, matching those two creatures who are themselves clearly based upon eldritch horror.
Seeing the picture of them with the helmet on reminds me of the aliens at the ranch in Zelda: Majora's Mask. Seems like they were the inspiration.

@Mr. Johnson I mean yes and no they added alot of cool shit and then not alot cool shit so like you gotta do hoops to make it make sense but it all eventually makes sense
The recent ufo leak, the video on a military base of the uap/ufo in ultraviolet light floating/hovering reminds me of this. Same kinda shape and movement
You've earned a subscriber good sir.
All across Fallout's lore there are examples of what can only be described as Eldritch Horrors, you can even find some of them in 76. I wouldn't be surprised at all if it turned out the specimen was one of these, how Vault Tec would be able to contain one though is beyond me.
What about the Interloper(s)? We don't know really know what they can do since we've never seen one alive and walking around, but they gotta have some weird genetics yeah?
the biggest mystery of all why make this game with a completely different design philosophy
Hey man nice video as usual but what is the piano theme at the beginning of the video ?
This really makes me think about trying 76 out, but I still have years of time left in 4
Surprised no one pointed out that the intro BGM is Prey (2017)'s menu theme, bu then I saw what you did there at 11:43. (If you are a fan of immersive sims or System Shock, definitely go check Prey (2017) out. ;) )
X-001 is Todd Howard.

I hope so!
Killing someone who doesn’t meet a quota is the dumbest thing. Like who’s gonna fill that quota now?
Ive never gotten into that vault.
How they explain x-001 sounds perfect to a phantom type typhon
If you’ve never taken the opportunity to play Bethesda’s “Prey” … my heart never slowed down the whole playthrough 😅
and its a prey screenshot for the thumbnail lol
Hey never thought I would see prey mentioned in a fallout video!
As much as i love fallout i do eventualy want to see a game that is near the end of the timeline where the world is healing properly and your job is to help bring in or finish off factions or other groups left. Also got to wonder what will happen with the zetans as last things we knew they were up to was on mothership zeta in fallout 3 where they lost control of 1 ship and have 1 blown up and then some time later in fallout 4 a ship crashes for unknown reasons.
Are they adding a Superjail update?
I feel that as the Government was actually controlled by The Enclave pre war, that would track that they too, were tightly involved with Vault-Tec.
i think specimen X-001 is a flatwoods monster because a flatwoods monster could be found in vault 96 before it whas open to players you could see the flatwoods monster if you clipped thru the wall or vault door before it whas open to players ... i also think the enclave is involved in all vault´s not only vault 96
That's a substantial amount of data and thought you put into this. Thanks. I really wish the Enclave were better represented in game, and I still don't see how the Responders are sitting right on top of them... Unless it's a "front" or "cover". It would be nice if they at some point ousted the Responders, cleansed them with robots and assaultrons... Showing that the Enclave is the most dangerous group, providing the PC with an opportunity to do "more evil" or less than noble things to promote their own agenda (betraying the responders and gaining access to additional tech). As it is, the "good guys" ALWAYS winning is less than realistic. 76 is so watered down from all the Fallout games that I find it almost inconceivable how some people profess it is so great. As a multiplayer game, combat wise, and overall beauty... I love 76, but as far as a Fallout game - I hate it. Even the BOS is so ridiculously incompetent... How? They come up with Ultracite weapons, which in my mind should be below Enclave tech, and are ousted/defeated so easily.. The responders, pretending that the world will be what it was, is laughable. How can they compete against the tech? Unless they have overpowering numbers. Raiders, Settlers... Started, and incomplete. Secret Service - One agent makes a reference to additional missions - again incomplete. I really think they could have made "segments" of the map with higher influence by the raiders or settlers as your rep grew and different servers based on who you supported with gold, so at least it makes SOME IMPACT. Wow... I am so opinionated. I'll tie this up by saying this: Vault 88 was by far the ABSOLUTE PINNACLE of Fallout writing. I also wished that Super Mutants, Synths, Ghouls and perhaps one more mutation race were Player Characters... I think that it could have been done well, especially if you have played RPGs and have learnt how to balance benefits with drawbacks to make them appealing. What do I know though? I'm just a highly imaginative, creative person who accepts that some people are good and some are bad, but power corrupts almost without exception, and this should be part of the reality. This should not be a "kid's game". Thanks again for the post. I agree with you, and I hope that eventually, Bethesda will actually add some "meaningful" content that puts Fallout 76 back in the league of a FALLOUT GAME...

Really interesting thoughts mate enjoyed reading it. I think my hope regarding the Enclave and the Responders is they just want others to do the work for them. Like they are playing a longer game and can achieve their goals by pulling others strings behind the scene. I would love to see some long lasting effects in 76 like you mentioned - Foundation Destroyed or the Responders wiped out etc. it becomes repetitive with no ramifications of anything.

@@UraniumFever76 Of all the factions, I find that the Enclave is the most under developed and incomplete. I mean the last time they really spent anything on them was prior to fallout 4.
