![]() As a final note, this is strictly a personal decision on my part. It is possible that the wannamingoes were old Enclave experiments (or even experiments from before the Great War), and if this is true, then it's likely their genetic/biological deadman’s switch was purposely engineered to keep them from breeding past a certain generation. Again, Wannamingoes are not aliens – they are a curious mutant or genetically-designed fighting machine that has only been able to find a home in the cold, dark places of the wastes. The mother was killed, and the last remaining eggs were hunted down, stepped on, and then the remains were examined by local scientists and doctors who came to the extinction conclusions mentioned above. To put the tombstone on their extinction, the largest known nest of Wannamingoes were wiped out when the Great Wannamingo mine was reclaimed by Redding with the help of a traveling tribal. The Wannamingoes are a vicious mutant breed that had their moment in the sun, and now their sun has set. In any event, to clarify, the eggs you see in Fallout 2 are the last generation of Wannamingoes to exist in the wasteland the young Wannamingoes seen in F2 will perish in five years, and their parents a few years before that - an internal genetic clock will simply stop ticking, and they'll fall over dead. ↑ Chris Avellone: "Sorry about the error on the Wannamingoes and sterility – I had forgotten about the mother and the eggs in Redding. ![]() They're usually seen underground and in groups." They aren't intelligent in the usual sense, but they do seem to have a hive-mind mentality. Where they came from or what they're doing here is unknown. ↑ Fallout 2 Official Strategies & Secrets p.35: "Wanamingos are tough, very fast, and resistant to laser weaponry.However, they have a natural weakness to fire and will flee if one of their feet becomes crippled. They are highly resistant to most damage types and can hurl a flurry of powerful attacks at their enemies in close combat. Wanamingos are fierce foes and a potent threat to lower-level players. Other wanamingos can be found scattered throughout the wasteland between Redding and San Francisco, including in the San Francisco tanker. All "aliens" living in that mine are killed by the Chosen One in 2242. The only known queen lives in the wanamingo mine in Redding. Long-lived but unable to reproduce without a queen, they are slowly dying out by 2241. They aren't intelligent in terms of typical fauna, but the species is described to have a collective mentality. They hatch from eggs laid by a wanamingo queen - a large grey-colored wanamingo which others fearlessly protect. Through a process not entirely understood, these attacks also induce radiation poisoning. The creatures are devastating in close combat, chewing at foes and lashing at them with their tentacles. The creature's large head lacks visible sensory organs, but it does not seem to require eyesight in order to discern the location of prey. They possess a large central body with a sizable mouth full of razor-sharp teeth, and a pair of long, tentacle-like appendages that appear to be used for both grasping objects and to batter opponents in combat. We appreciate the hard work and thoughtful consideration that the District Attorney’s Office and the Grand Jury dedicated to this matter.Morphologically, wanamingos are bipedal lifeforms that bear almost no resemblance to any other form of terrestrial life. “Today’s decision is the first step in restoring Keke’s good name and successfully brings to a close what has been a painful and uncertain chapter in his life. Mingo’s attorney, Chris Lewis, issued a statement ( Twitter link), which reads in part as follows: Now that his legal situation has been resolved, he will presumably have a chance to continue his playing career in 2022, though any contract he gets will likely be for the veteran minimum or slightly higher. He has also proven himself to be durable, as he has never appeared in less than 15 games in a single season. Still, he has carved out a lengthy career as a rotational defender and special teams contributor, and in his 2020 season with Chicago - in which he appeared in 36% of the Bears’ defensive snaps and 82% of their special teams snaps - Pro Football Focus’ metrics considered him a league-average performer. His rookie season tally of five sacks still represents a career-high, as he managed only 7.5 sacks in total across the next seven years. Mingo, 31, has never lived up to his status as the No. Linebacker Barkevious Mingo signed a one-year, $1.25MM contract with the Falcons in March, but Atlanta released him a few months later, after he was charged with “indecency with a child–sexual contact.” As Ian Rapoport of NFL.com reported last month, the Texas grand jury that was convened in the matter determined there was no probable cause to move forward, so Mingo will not be prosecuted ( Twitter link).
