In Fallout 2, the Chosen One can call Wooz a zombie, which appears to deeply offend him. The raving cultist Dane asserts that zombies are a disgrace to God. He mentions that he once belonged to a gang called the Fighting Flesh. The character description of Slummer, a reveler at the Cathedral, refers to him as simply "a zombie," and the player has many opportunities to call him one. However there were rumors of both the ghouls and their origins circulating prior to 2161. The first appearance of the word in Fallout was when it was used by Set's ghoul gangsters to refer to themselves, and was pejoratively used towards Children of the Cathedral cultists. The term is also used to describe feral ghouls. In the Fallout world, the term generally refers to ghouls, who very much resemble the zombies of pre- War horror films, often as a derogatory remark. A zombie is an undead corpse, typically devoid of a soul and with no free will.
