Sluggalos

Most of the surviving sluggalos chose to stay with the crawlers after Zerzura.

Story so far

When the surviving NPCs decided whether to remain with the crawlers or go, most of the surviving Sluggalos stayed — alongside Jamal, The Strippers, and a handful of former crawlers including Rosetta and Tipid.

They rode out Zerzura and remained on the collapsing ninth floor, sheltering in the crawlers' Saferoom as the destruction clock ran down.

Role

Loyal NPC contingent that stays with the crawlers through the floor's destruction.

Relationships

Jamal — Among the NPCs who stayed with the crawlers
The Strippers — Fellow NPC survivors who stayed
Zerzura — Survived it inside the saferoom
