Muttation Contest X

The Rhippo was a capital experiment that was supposed to mix a hippo and a rhino together to make a big unstoppable force that could crush down buildings and houses and anything really in their way. The experiment went well except for the fact that most of the creatures were herbivores, but some did become omnivores as the capital played with their genetics. After the rebellion, the capital went and tried to get all the Rhippos and exterminate them, so they didn't cause anymore harm to the districts. Few did escape the capital's collection and lived in the forests around the districts. The Rhippo has a horn and head like a rhino and a bigger body like a hippo, while still having the rhino's muscle to back up the weight. The horn is usually about 2 feet tall and is sharp like a knife, if rammed into someone, it could tear muscles and break bones. It has another set of attack, using it's teeth that are flat like a hippo's to crunch things. The Rhippo has one defense and that is the rough exterior of it's skin that is about 3 inches think and is very tough. The Rhippo acts like a rhino mainly and is very territorial. It likes to make sure no one is in it's territory, if you do it will charge. It tends to spend it's time eating plants or animals. It will battle for it's territory if another Rhippo comes into play. The Rhippo, unlike most capital mutts, has a way of mating. They like to prove how tough they are and ram into as many trees as possible and knock them down. The rest of the Rhippos were found and kept safe within the capital, just in case, for reasons of force.

Name of Mutt: Forged Bison.
Brief Summary: Although not actually forged as the name suggests. The Forged Bison was an attempt by the Capitol to be some sort of 'helping' farm animal similar to a horse pulling wagons and other stuff. The genetic makeup of the Forged Bison was screwed up and it turned out that the bison could survive only in cold climates. The Forged Bison are roughly the size of a horse and generally has no aggressive tendencies unless someone or something enters their territory.
Poison, Edible, or Neither? Edible only if cooked in high temperatures

Name of Mutt: Deviled Eggs

Brief Summary: Roughly the size of an ostrich egg, the Deviled Eggs were created in the hopes of finding the perfect egg to eat. The Capitol tested on animal eggs and continuously injected living animals with serums to cause their eggs to be a certain way, and in the end they created an egg with an extremely hard (and gold-colored) shell. Further studies showed that, yes, there was something living inside, but it baffled the scientists as to how it was remaining alive. Since it did not prove to be edible they gave up and released the subject animals but they continued to lay their golden eggs in the wilderness.

A few rouge scientists discovered that whatever creatures were in these little eggs never chose to break out and leave. Much like a turtle, they used their shell for protection and a home. They did, however, use perhaps a beak or something to chip away at the interior of the shell so that they could use their webbed feet with poisonous claws to attack other animals, and they find their way around with an incredible sense of smell. It is also noted that a few, when put under extreme stress or as sort of a last resort, have been known to explode and use shell fragments as a final attack before they die.

Poision, Edible, or Neither? Poisonous
