Radiation builds up as you absorb rads in contaminated zones and irradiated portal worlds, progressing through Radiation Tingle, then Radiation Sickness, then Irradiated, with the worse stages forcing nausea and vomiting that drains hunger and thirst. You cut absorption with the Rad Resistant buff from items like Iodine Tablets, and with gear: a Hazmat Suit blocks the most, with the Lead Vest as a lighter option. Carry a Geiger Counter so you know when you are in the danger zone.
