I'm pretty sure the aerosolized FEV thing is from the Fallout Bible, and thus isn't explicitly canon?
I think they just were in f1 (iirc they were mostly moral device in the game, like who cares they are zombies or oh god I can't just steal from people), in f2 they were exposed to fev, and in later games not sure probably retconned one way or another.
If there is no fev in the air where all other mutants come from? 🤔
the beginning of this comment is hard to interpret for me, so I'm just gonna leave it alone. but I think the idea is the other mutants are just caused by radiation, or at least FEV isn't explicitly a cause other than... in racoons according to 76? radiation works differently in fallout cause the devs wanted cool monsters
