Nuclear Neighbors BETA Neighbors and creatures

Nuclear Neighbors BETA is not a silent single-player fallout sim. Servers hold 20 players. The other avatars in the hallway are part of the loop, and so are the things that are not players: Hatman, Skeleto, police rats, a toilet jumpscare, a fridge that hands out beans, a mutated can, a possible vampire friend, and a cryptid hunt nobody has finished.

This hub is the roster. Rank the same names on the encounter tier list after you have a death to map them to. Day strategy stays on how to survive. This page answers who they are, which badge names them, and which dedicated article to open next.

Human neighbors (other players)

Treat randoms as unstable allies. Share loot routes if the lobby is talking. Call Hatman out loud. Do not dump your only food on a stranger who just spawned. Do not assume PvP is off just because the tone is horror-comedy; BETA rules can shift. If someone is multiplying Skeleto for a joke, leave that bunker wing and read Skeleto so you know why GET AWAY exists.

Voice and text are Roblox defaults. Keep callouts short: “rats,” “toilet,” “Hatman,” “fridge beans.” Long essays in chat get people jumpscared.

Named threats

Open these when a badge or a scream in chat names them.

• Hatman — badge Hatman / “Get taken by Hatman” (about 1,621 awards). Being taken is the tracked event. Exact AI is still BETA-fuzzy.
• Skeleto — badge GET AWAY / survive 5 days without multiplying him (about 165 awards). Multiplication is the trap, not a power-up.
• Cryptids — badge Cryptid Killer / “Hunt all cryptids” still at zero awards.
• Toilet creature — Toilet troubles, about 40,363 awards. The common jumpscare.
• Police rats — BUSTED, about 1,888 awards. The arrest joke.
• Child of Radiation — Become a child of radiation, 2,646 awards. Not the same badge as HARD Pure Radiation.
• Vampire friend — Bats? nah friend, 1,065 awards. Companion outcome, not a published boss.

Other tracked encounters

Object loops and leftovers still live mainly in encounters and the fridge guide.

Badge	Official description	Awards (Sep 2026)
Toilet troubles	Get jumpscared by the toilet creature	~40,363
BUSTED	Get busted by the police rats	~1,888
Rotten beans	Slay the mutated beans can	853
Child of Radiation	Become a child of radiation	2,646
Midnight Snack	Get 5 beans in a row from the mysterious fridge	187
Awkward..	Have 10 crickets spawn during the cricket random event	0
Bats? nah friend	Get the vampire friend	1,065
Alien Saviors	Get the Alien Saviors ending	340

Toilet troubles firing for four in ten players is why the first-night guide tells you to expect a jumpscare, not a peaceful shower. Awkward.. at zero awards means the cricket pile is either rare, bugged, or brutally specific. Do not write a fake cricket farm until the badge moves.

You, the survivor

Your avatar is the other half of the roster. Survival badges on the checklist are about you lasting days, not about killing a boss with a published HP bar. First day jitters is almost universal. Help me (day 100) is a few dozen people. One Above All (50 days on DEADLY) is still zero. That spread is the real player-skill chart for this BETA.

Cryo Chad (max cryo-pod upgrade) and Stinky (20 days without showering) are self-inflicted neighbor stories: one is investment, one is a hygiene dare. They belong next to the creature list because they change how other players treat you in a 20-person bunker.

How to use this hub in a live lobby

1. If chat says a name, open the matching article before you peek the hallway.
2. If you want ranks instead of lore, go to the tier list and encounter ranks.
3. If you want endings, endings plus cryptids.
4. If you want systems, updates after a patch so you are not fighting last week’s Hatman.

This roster will grow when Building Adventure names more neighbors in badges. Until then we will not invent a police-rat captain or a Hatman lore bible. Badge text is the canon we have, and the BETA changelog is when those names first appeared.
