Trogs are creatures in the Pitt in Fallout 3.

Background

Sandra Kundanika states that Troglodyte Degeneration Contagion or TDC causes humans to transform into Trogs.[1] The disease is the result of intensively concentrated ambient radiation exposure combined with the unique industrial toxins and pollutants in the region.[2] It is not contracted via contact with the infected.[3] Approximately 20% of the populace have transformed into Trogs, attacking anything on sight.[1] Children born in the Pitt have a 100% degeneration rate and become feral within weeks of birth.[1] Trogs kill former friends and loved ones.[4] They say lines like "Kill it!", "Meat!", "Hungry!", and "Food!" when attacking, and "Hurts!", "Pain!", and "Why?" upon being injured. They mutter "...peace..." or "Thank you..." before they die.[5]

Publications

Trogs are fast-moving, hug the ground as they scamper, and inflict massive hemorrhaging damage at close quarters. Naturally, ranged weaponry is an excellent choice; in fact, any weapon you’ve used against Ghouls in the past works just as well against Trogs. If a Trog manages to reach you, the Auto Axe is an excellent choice for chopping them into sinewy chunks. The V.A.T.S. also usually allows you to kill them before they damage you.Fallout 3 Official Game Guide/Faction profiles

  2. Lone Wanderer: "Wait, slow down. Cure for what?"
    Wernher: "The Pitt is a mess. Nearly everyone who lives there is either sick, dying, or... worse. It's the water. And the air. You can't escape it. You stay there a few years, and no matter what, it'll get you. But the bastards who have my people, they've found a way to a cure it. And once they have that cure perfected, we don't stand a chance. So, we need the cure to bargain for our freedom."
    (Wernher's dialogue)
  3. Lone Wanderer: "A cure? You're sick? Agh! Get away!"
    Wernher: "It's not like that. You can't catch it from me. The Pitt... it gets to you. It's the water, and the air. You can't escape it. You stay there a few years, and no matter what, it'll get to you. But the bastards who have my people, they've found a way to fight it off. And once they have it perfected, we don't stand a chance. So, I need you to come with me and help me get the cure. With it, we can turn the tables on them. Once we control the cure, Ashur will have no choice but to free the slaves."

  5. Lone Wanderer: "What happens to people who get sick?"
    Wernher: "It's hard to describe. It's nasty. And it affects everyone a little differently. But the longer you're there, the more it gets you. Some just get sick and die. Others go crazy, completely psycho. They live out in the city. We call 'em 'Wildmen'. And the worst... well... just hope you never have to see 'em. They turn into animals. They forget who they are. They just eat, sleep, fuck, and kill. But this cure, maybe it can stop all that."
