Intro
22536 years ago, the human race tore itself apart.
Nation fought nation, man fought man.
The skies were lit by fire and blood.
Bit by bit their society failed them, and they fell to their own powers.
And Man was no more.
Man could no longer harm the earth, nor could they rise from their grave.
Despite their powers, no even Man could defeat Death.
For many many centuries afterwards, the earth mourned the scars and wounds that Man had left on the earth.
Nuclear weapons, bombs, grenades, unimaginable terrors had scarred the earth beyond repair.
Despite their death, Man refused to go to the afterlife in peace.
They just had to leave one last mark.
One last, terrible mark.
If they had to die, they would take the earth with them.
Man's twisted creations poisoned the earth, rendering it infertile.
Earth never bloomed again.
In their panic, the surviving animals tore themselves apart for the few scraps of food, the strong ate the weak and the weak ate the weaker.
Nature became a bloody pyramid of death where only the strong survived.
Many died there.
And that wasn't the only terror.
The other stalked in the darkness and targeted all, whether strong or weak.
Radiation.
And it didn't just stop there
Radiation never killed their victims.
Death was too good a fate.
It instead twisted the bodies of the unfortunate, and turned them into senseless monsters.
Monsters who were unstoppable
Impossibly strong, durable, and nearly immortal.
And hungry
Oh yes, hungry.
They were dubbed the Mindless Ones by the few veterans who survived.
There weren't many survivors.
All the other animals who survived the first two terrors thought themselves to be lucky, incredibly lucky to be able to escape radiation.
But the truth was, they didn't.
The mutations were small at first, like webbed claws or a patch of scales.
But they became larger.
Now, all the animals have their signature mutation, made to fight off predators and the Mindless Ones.
And you are one of them.
Rules
1) Nothing rude
2) Hate the character not the player
3) Don't kill anyone without permission
4) Do not make your character OP/Mary Sue/ Gary Sue
5) NPCs(aka caught prey and the Mindless Ones) are allowed
6) No hybrids
7) Mindless Ones will always be stronger than your character unless there's like three predator characters against one.
8) If you get caught by a Mindless One you will die slowly because of the radiation they give off.
9) Mindless Ones are endless(meaning there will always be Mindless Ones) but not immortal
10) No god playing
11) No being a jerk in general
12) Please check grammar and spelling.
13) Follow the rules
14) Read the food chain. The natural food chain(right now in 2020) has been changed to fit the rp. If you're prey, you are prey, meaning the predators will normally try to catch you and EAT you, meaning you run.
15) Make your characters realistic/explainable with logic.
16) Crushes are allowed
17) Have fun!
Characters
You can play as any of the animals below. You choose the physical and passive mutations for your character.You can have one physical mutation as a predator, but one physical mutation and one passive mutation as middle rank. You can have one physical mutation and two passive mutations as a lowest rank. I might add more in the future, but these are the main groups.
Mammals
Top of the food chain: Tigers, Lions and other large cats.
All except lions hunt alone
Middle of the Food Chain: Wolves, Foxes
Wolves travel in packs to hunt prey, foxes are solitary
Lowest of the Food chain: Hyenas and other scavengers

Reptiles
Top of the food chain: Komodo Dragon
Bite almost always kills their prey
Middle of the Food chain: Venomous snakes
Lowest of the food chain: Non-venomous snakes(yes, now poisonous snakes eat not poisonous snakes)

Birds
Top of food chain: Eagles, Hawks, large albatrosses
All of the above travels alone
Middle of food chain: small albatrosses, Falcons
Sometimes travels alone, sometimes travel in flocks
Lowest of the Food chain: Seagulls and small birds
Bands together in flocks
Fish

Horns
Etc.

Mutations that are NOT allowed:

Ability to fly for not birds
Anything that cannot be explained with science

You cannot roleplay as an insect. If your character has gills and webbed feet, they can swim, but not as well as a fish. You can have wings as anything other than a bird but your character will NOT be able to fly. You need hollow bones for that.

Note: If you have a mutation like 3 tails, that counts as 3 mutations. Max 2 extra tails as a low levelled prey. You can have insect wings and be able to fly for birds.
