Description: Hermit crabs were one of the smaller species of crab before the Great War. They were notorious and named so because they used shells and other empty containers as homes and place to hide and changed every time they grown too big for their actual home.
The Radiation of the Great War has mutated these creatures to gigantic sizes and now, the only things that can store their bodies are old vehicles.
They aren't violent but will feel threatened every time one gets close to them, something which can be problematic due to them usually being hidden inside of their metallic shells. More than one unsuspecting traveler has suddenly discovered that what it thought to be an empty ruinous car is instead the home of a giant crab.
Unlike other creatures even if they become hostile they will not follow their enemies and will cease any attacking as long as they are left alone and people respect their territory.
