Unhumans

The Unhumans are a genetic strain born from early Serpent People efforts to create a biddable slave race.   Infused by Ophidian science and sorcery with the raw energies of chaos, Unhuman genetics are inherently unstable and mutable, changing radically from one generation to the next, such that Unhuman children virtually never resemble their parents and may have any number of unusual mutations or abilities.   The majority of the Unhuman race long since left Earth’s dimension. Led by a psionic mutant named Balor, ancient Unhumans settled in Ireland and became known as the Fomori. There they clashed with Atlantean survivors of the Four Cities of Danu, known as the Tuatha De Dannan (or “People of Danu”) who eventually drove the Fomori out of this dimension into the realm of Annwn. A small fraction of their number settled in the surface world near Mt. Stanley, becoming the ancestors of the modern Unhumans of the Cryptid Clans.   The Unhumans are the spiritual heart of the Clans, their culture having already developed a highly flexible concept of “beauty” and “kinship” given the vast differences between even genetic siblings among their kind.   Their credo is “strength in diversity” and they have lent this idea to all of the Hidden People since the Clans were first formed. Their combined mystical and genetic heritage also serves to bridge between Cryptids like the Forsaken and the Changed Ones in some regards.   Like their Fomori cousins, the Unhumans have some surviving examples of ancient Lemurian technology at their disposal.
