Stunted



  • HEADER_STUNTED_sm.png


    The unwanted, misused, and broken misfits -- yet full of such potential.

    Unfortunate creatures who did not match the demands for perfection, Stunted chupakri are blended with increased genetic diversity for a variety of effects and outcomes - usually detrimental and unsightly. They are the most varied in appearance, often with oversized ears and feet, and blatant deformities along with their notable scales.

    Stunted are the lowest of the low, hardly viewed as people at all, used as walking bloodbags, organ donors, and limb replacement resources, they are generally considered worthless, unwanted objects to be used, abused, and discarded.

    GENETIC BLEND: 4 GENOMES
    In addition to the chupakri base.
    ▴ STABILITY - 4 (DANGEROUS)
    Dangerously unstable, Stunted chupakri are prone to spontaneous mutation and destabilization, requiring culling if pushed beyond their limits.
    ▴ LIKELY GENOMES
    Land-dwelling mammals, reptiles, and fish are all utilized to create Stunted. The pool of genetic influence for these chupakri is vast, including ring-tailed lemur, spider monkey, opossum, moray eel, mako shark, and many more.
    ▴ ENCOUNTERED GENOMES
    These are animals that have already shown in a Stunted chupakri. (We strongly prefer that new chupakri applicants do not use animals that have already been used for their caste.)

  • CASTE STANDARDS
    ▴ REQUIRED QUALITIES
    Physical identifiers that indicate caste.
    ▴ Stunted are the most muddled-looking of the castes, often proving difficult to pin down exact animal DNA on sight alone.
    ▴ Always present scales on some part of their body.
    ▴ Generally more frail than other chupakri.
    ▴ Present multiple deformities per individual.
    ▴ POSSIBLE QUALITIES
    Physical identifiers that indicate caste but do not manifest in all members of the caste. Some of these may be shared with another caste.
    ▴ Exaggerated features.
    ▴ Increased chances of spontaneous mutation.
    ▴ Fur and markings are widely varied.
    ▴ Extra limbs, eyes, or unnaturally influenced features are common.
    ▴ No wings is very common.
    ▴ Stunted may have bright, unnatural or unusual colors on their bodies so long as they do not encompass the majority of the color scheme.

  • SOCIAL & FUNCTION

    Beaten and mistreated from birth, a Stunted knows that he or she is nothing more than a living resource for their fellows to use. Limb harvesting, blood cultivating, and organ transplants are all par for the course for these chupakri. Their training is minimal, focused entirely on browbeating them into submission.
    ▴ GENERAL BEHAVIOR
    Submissive and often developmentally neglected, Stunted are often found to be quiet, fearful, and self-sacrificing for any cause, no matter the reason. They have little self-worth and firmly believe that they exist only to serve and die for their masters and other chupakri, even other fellow Stunted. When allowed the freedom to breathe, Stunted often become quirky and capable survivors, but will always carry with them the underlying damage caused by the horror of their upbringing.
    ▴ CHUPAKRI SOCIETY
    Summary of how Stunted relate to each other and to other chupakri of other castes.
    ▴ELITE: Beautiful, wonderful, perfect. Stunted must do everything to satisfy them, to be useful to them.
    ▴BERSERKER: Powerful and terrible, protectors and murderers both.
    ▴HYBRID: Useful and admirable, every one of them is worth a hundred Stunted.
    ▴STUNTED: Friends and fellow sacrifices.

    ▴ FREEDOM
    Stunted chupakri are likely to take up the following jobs and occupations on their own time.
    ▴ Service (maids/housekeepers, lamplighters, chimney sweeps)
    ▴ Thievery
    ▴ Spy
    ▴ Information broker
    ▴ Treasure hunter
    ▴ Mapmaker
    ▴ Navigator
    ▴ Peddler
    ▴ Blood/organ donor
  • BODY & MIND
    ▴ HEALTH OVERVIEW
    Out of all the Chupakri, Stunteds are perhaps the most unhealthy of the castes. They lack the medical attention Elites, and Berserkers are blessed with, while also lacking the sturdiness of Hybrids. Mental illness is the norm in this caste, being mistreated by Chupakri and the Collective alike.
