  • Red Eyes to witness the future. Purple to see the lies. But Orange? Green? That remains to be seen.
    Stalking the dark forests of Appalachia the Mothman remains one of Fallout 76’s greatest mysteries.
    A Cryptid creature, in actuality it is not a singular entity, with numerous Mothmen having a variety of different eye colours and… temperarments.
    Some will stalk you, others will hunt you, some are worshipped and others impart wisdom, made all the more confusing by close ties to another one of Fallout 76’s greatest mysteries.
    What we are left with are more questions.
    Why is the red eyed mothman considered divine?
    How did the Wise Mothman become wise?
    And what is the significance of all mothman hatchlings having orange eyes?
    In todays video we are going back through the history of the Mothman, combing the evidence that can be found before presenting 10 different interesting facts & theories you may have missed about Appalachia’s most famous Cryptid.

    The Wise Mothman is trying to protect humanity from Ug Qualtoth i think.
    Marlon says the voices he hears are always appeased after communing with the Wise Mothman, those same voices sound a lot like the ones the raider Hugo in the quarry heard back in F4... That was Ug Qualtoth and he eventually convinces Hugo to end himself after he's no longer useful.
    The Wise Mothman saved people from "the flood" aka the nukes. And We know Ug Qualtoth is connected to radiation given his influence over ghouls, the radiation emanating from his obelisk, radiation surrounding the sleeping giant in F4, and mini nukes at his altar...
    I like the idea of a cute highly intelligent moth beefing with Lovecraftian horrors. 👀

    In the vault used for daily ops, the one full of ice from damaged cryo units, there are tubes with giant cocoons/chrysalids. Think that vault was mutating the stock of animal subjects it was supposed to preserving.

    • @UraniumFever76
      @UraniumFever76  Před rokem +22

      Correct! Those are called experiment tubes. The only conflicting bit of evidence would be the timeline - the first sightings of the Mothman were pre-war but the team in Vault 96 entered after the bombs dropped. With specific instructions not to introduce any species or mutations outside the Vault. They would later escape though. Not sure what they will end up doing with it, but they really do look like chrysalis pods so there might be a connection!

    • @last2nkow
      @last2nkow Před rokem +4

      @Uranium Fever but we do also know that the mothman cukt was prewar, and there is a secret cryotube we can't access while exploring that vault which has a "special" occupant that has properties that don't follow known laws of physics.
      I've always been of the opinion that it was a flatwoods monster, but with the knowledge that the mothmen can teleport in combat, aren't normal and never have been normal, and that the experiment pods visually look like mothman cocoons it is at least a possibility that there is a connection.

    I remember when I first started playing 76 on launch, I encountered a Wise Mothman in a random encounter. It was hostile, so I had to kill it though. I know that encounter has since been removed from the game, but encountering the thing at level 2, fresh out of the vault, got me interested in the Cryptids of 76. Still obsessed with them and their lore to this day. “Rip Daring and the Cryptid Hunt” has been my favorite season so far because of this.

The Yellow are young, the Red are fanatic and... may there be Blue mothmen too, what aspect do they orefer I wonder? Seriously orange and purple ( yellow too kinda ) is so thematically underused and left out in merch, media, classes in video/ tabletop games. In favor of the RedBlueGreen digital primary colors. The natural pigment Red🔴Yellow🟡Blue🔵 and their mixing, bringing forth the "children" of Orange🟠Purple🟣Green🟢 makes more cohesive sense.

They all have similar frames and the Gulpers are still coded partly as Deathclaws because they have a low change of dropping their claws. After moonshine i often have 3-5 in my inventory. So curious will the devil drop Sheepsquatch pelts and Deathclaw claws?

    Ive not yet seen your channel before, but im always open to more fallout content (even if its the game that hath no name) simply curious though, whats your take on 76 and canonicity? Because if 76 IS indeed canon then there are indeed eldritch and possibly supernatural entities like our mothy boi, potentially a dunwhich horror, and the CoA are seemingly blessed by some form of entity, wether it is indeed Atom or something that accepts the misguided praise is a mystery. Sorry for a ramble but i live in the wasteland at this point. Hope ya dont mind my mad ramblings in future video comments!

    • @UraniumFever76
      @UraniumFever76  Před rokem

      Hey thanks for checking the video bud! Oh man what a question… topical too as I’m working on something else that’s heavily related to that question. In short it’s very problematic I think.. 76 has some of the most overpowered things in the series. Ultracite as a power source, the Flatwoods monster and of course all these unique species. How it’s all going to line up in terms of a timeline with the other games is unclear currently. I think it’s canon to a point but something big will happen that explains why we don’t see a lot of these things in future games. Not at all I love seeing theories, and welcome any thoughts you have on future videos!

    • @spacewhale5919
      @spacewhale5919 Před rokem +1

      @@UraniumFever76 the only theory ive seen that i personally use as an excuse to play it, is that the appalachian wasteland is a vault tec simulation designed to give a possible look into what the wasteland may offer based on knowledge given by various companies/entities, posiedon, enclave, robco and general atomics, so its not the wasteland we get but a pre war projection OF the post war landscape. Hard to explain in text but it can account for the amount of small discrepencies but could be used in latter mainstream games for different companies or such, just slightly altered to fit the canon. Thats my hope anyways. Im also very interested in the pre war monument and architecture possibly related to zetan, (or dwemer ill die on this hill), or seperate civilization cabot found. I checked your post but didnt see a date, any timeframe for that? Dont mean to be nosy!

    Funny how there's been many creepy pastas surrounding the idea of a Moth man, Ik there is one where you can summon him and he'll answer any question you ask him, but its recommended you dont ask more than 3, and how you cannot mock or insult him. Another I believe it was also another mothman where it goes to a man in a forest, forcing the man to bring children to the mothman for it to Eat. After it was done or the man ran out of them, eventually the "Seed Eater" ate him as well, and afterwards theres other rumors that follow soon after it, My knowledge on the seed eater side though is limited since its been a while when I last read it

      Or they could show the king mothman or queen mothman or something and they’ll look perhaps like the classic.
      Also now that Indrid Cold is in the game and in real life he was seen by people in the town at the same time as the mothman I could see a quest connecting them together.
