Homebrew Deformities Species Details

Deformities are a close related cousins to the human species, their overgrown grotesque looks, merging jaws, split open heads, extended limbs, new limbs and so on are birth through their harsher and worser environment, before the cavemen even came into existence these creatures came from the soil and mud itself, an everlasting essences from earths vitality, through dead carcasses and flesh cubes founded deep in the caverns, the world didn't have a sun but it didn't need one the core was boiling hot and was able to reach a safety although the surface remain cold. 

Their sometimes pale white, grey, dark grey or even pinkest red comes from the ancient world temperatures, their able to sustain in heavy tundra like blizzard and sustain themselves through harsher environments that can normally kill a normal human.

There are different sub species of deformities  some weaker then the others while some are made for survivalist, although every one has their own usage. Deformities are also versatile their made to improve themselves on harder terrain, growing more or adapting in a physical painful way just to navigate , most sub species are omnivores with some being carnivores or the peaceful medium to giant being herbivores. Although some hunt in packs due to small and tiny sizes most hunt alone.

Their social life is rather dense, their the opposite of humans they can survive severe isolation and loneliness even going through a whole life without talking to a person. But even then if they do find a partner or a friend you'd find them heavily affectionate and caring, showing even the most unconditional love. Depending on how they are treated. They have their own morale grounds and reasoning.

Morale corruption through humanity :

Although they have everything including the core of humanity being humanity sprites both these creatures and human  have it represent the soul, vitality morality and life essence of a mortal being but after awhile deformities adapted through having no longer humanity sprites but humanity decree, made to consume and harvest other humanity to gain absolute power in return losing in madness and their morale standard, deformities are never aggressive for no reason unless their completely corrupted by their uncontrolled desire. Their more bigger, more deformed beyond anything , almost looking like a pile of flesh, growing an extra person or limbs just to help them better on how they hunt humans. They adapt faster and to their surroundings and act more animalistic and territorial then normal. They would also dispersed humanity decree from other deformities to accumulate more humanity sprite, to the point where they become giant or titans of unrecognizable, losing their sense of taste, smell, hearing and sight rendering them useless until they die out of starvation.

 

How other races see them : 

Because of their complexity look and other side aggression, people, races and other species treat them lesser unintelligent beings, even abusing or chasing them away due to storys, rumours and hate-in-origin (HIO) where they are never respected or loved from other species. So they tend to avoid any other people in their travels. 

 

Similarities : 

They are heavily similar in intellect, building and emotional connection, although the different is the connection their deeply intimate and caring, once they find someone they trust, you will expect soft bites, head nuzzles, and tail warping where they pull you close to them, their also known to hug when getting rest to warm the other person up to their immense inner heat.

 

Blood : 

Highly dense metallic like blood, can be used similar to sap when times get desperate they would bleed themself to make a makeshift power glue, to keep their tools together, but due to their blood being dense they receive less oxygen their stamina can sometimes feel endless but it takes 2 days to refill a full healthy deformity into a fight, so they need to manage. Due to their massive veins tendence they don't worry about blood clout just underflowing blood can risk with the heart completely halting depending on the type of deformities and how they function.

Likes:

They love companionship and treat it as something sacred, even if they hunt animals they would try to end the suffering as immediately as possible no point in keeping the animal life and let it sit somewhere for an hour then they'll consume or harvest. They keep their pets in check and doesn't seek anything else besides that.

Dislikes:

They don't dislike other species but they will be vicious if provoked unconditionally they will attack and kill if needed.

 

The main con of this species : 

Addiction and Domineering : If they give in to their humanity decree there is no turning back, they will lose their connection as soon as they give in to it more, there is a way and that is separating the humanity from their humanity decree to free the rest. They will reset back to who they were but not how they look. But it is highly dangerous the best and safe bet, is to put them down.
