Description Skull Crusher - Classified as Greater Mutants, Skull Crushers are the descendants of spotted hyenas that have successfully managed to escape their captive lives as private pets or zoo animals and survive in the new world. Standing an impressive 7 feet tall at the shoulder, they are practically hairless and possess little more than a few mangy, greasy strands left over from their days as pups and only possess any notable patches of hair on their tail. A row of bony spikes derived from their vertebrae run down their neck and spine as a result of a mutation in their genes. Their most notable and perhaps most horrifying feature however, is their jaws. Much like the jaws of a snake, their bottom mandible is able to split down the middle and then reattach at their discretion, though what the practical, evolutionary benefits of their unique adaptation are however, is unknown. What can be said is that is absolutely terrifying to witness - especially when one is starring down an entire pack of up to fifty individuals. As their name suggests, Skull Crushers are able to effortlessly break and digest bone, and just about anything else they could conceivably get their jaws around, no matter how putrid or rotten it may be. This has made their saliva extremely toxic, almost to the point where it could be classified as a venom with how serious of an infection a single bite can bring.

Duodo - Despite the Age of Humanity resulting in the loss of countless species and the rise of several, terrifying new ones, not everything in the new world is so frightening. In fact, some can be down right beautiful, such as the Duodo. Classified as a Greater Mutant, the Duodo is descended from the common pigeons that once flocked around humanity's cities, growing to a size of up to three feet tall with a wingspan twice as big. So numerous and adaptable were they that their ancestral species can still be found in s significant flocks around the world, often in places where the crumbling testaments to man's rein over the old world can be found. The Duodo however, is primarily found in the megamangrove swamps, marshes, and deltas that make up the coasts of the new world's continent and feed on a diet mostly consisting of marine invertebrates, plankton, and aquatic vegetation. As its name suggests, the Duodo possess two heads, each with their own, fully-functional brain and covered in a bright, magenta plumage. This beautiful color extends to the rest of their bodies, save for the insides of their wings, which are a bright white and possess, vivid, black eyespots with blue 'irises'. These are displayed, as well as with a significant amount of hissing, when they or their chicks come under attack from predators such as Ravvits, Titadpoles, or Revenant Ghoul Monkeys.
