>What the heck was Frank Horrigan? A supermutant in powered armor? A cybernetically
enhanced human? A robot? A cybernetically enhanced robotic super mutant in powered armor?
Also, if he was mutated, why did the Enclave put up with him? Did they make a distinction
between FEV induced mutation and radiation induced mutation? - Richard Grey

Frank Horrigan is a munchkin's worse nightmare: as far as I can find in the documentation, he's a mutant
in Power Armor (whether he's technically a super mutant is debatable, since the scientists operated on
him so much and tweaked his DNA and physiology it's hard to tell what the final result would have been
if he had been left to change on his own).
They didn't make a distinction as much as an exception. Not many people were aware of his mutant
status or could recognize him as a mutant... and those people saw him as more of an altered human
experiment than a mutant. It's all semantics. And selective bigotry.
