There is a quick way and the slow way, one in which one can be near ground zero and immediately be transformed from a strong radiation blast and another in which they are exposed to a smaller amount of radiation but for a longer period of time. Radiation poisoning typically kills people, but turning into a ghoul is possible in two ways. Drugs, such as Jet, take double doses to work on their senses. In addition to surviving a long time without food or water, ghouls are immune to many diseases, though not all. One especially long-lived ghoul, Billy Peabody, survived in a refrigerator for 210 years. Coffin Willie from Fallout 2survived for months without food or water in a coffin. However, their mutation has allowed their bodies to endure a very long time without sustenance. Like others, ghouls typically do need water and food to remain active and a certain form of healthy. Ghouls have a loss of their smell, which can give them the strength to eat food that humans usually find disgusting. Most non-feral ghouls are very intelligent due to amassing knowledge in their many years of lived experience. In the mental capacity, dementia can also occur with ghoulification, but rarely. This ability can also let ghouls heal at a fast rate among radiation. Their rotting flesh can result in losing limbs, but they have radioactive regeneration abilities that can allow them to reattach whatever falls off.
Other traits ghouls can gain from their condition includes arthritis, glaucoma, and cataracts. There have been miracle cases such as with Monica, who is only mentioned by Father Clifford in Fallout 3 to have been born from ghoul parents. They are also sterile, so they do not typically produce offspring. The oldest of ghouls date back to before the Great War, making them over 200 years old. One of the most notable differences between ghouls and humans is that they live far longer.
