Name of Mutt:Cave Ghoul
Species of Animal used:Human, snake and amphibians
Description: The cave ghoul is a truly horrifying beast. When Capitol geneticists attempted to create a race of 'super-man' soldiers for use in the war, they birthed a mutant species akin to goblins of ancient lore. Originally powerful beings who had lost all humanity and intelligence, they killed their Capitol geneticist 'parents' and fled to the earth beneath. The reason they were not slaughtered immediately was because the facility that they were created in was in what was once was south west Canada; now a volcanic ravaged area, bordering a tundra wasteland. They eventually accessed a system of caves and lived underground for years, isolated from the world. Their mutated genome granted them enhanced adaptation abilities, and after generations of no sunlight and inbreeding, the once majestic warriors degenerated. Their eyes fused into a massive, lightsensitive eye in the center of their head. Their once summer green, scaly skin became smooth, and it's a sickly pale olive colour, and they developed three long digits on their hands and two on their feet. Each digit has suction cups to latch onto cave walls. They have a mostly human outline, though they have become scrawny. The are fast, and that makes up for their lack of strength. The females lay their frog like eggs in cave cestpools. They've spread through all over the caves of Panem. Their diet includes cave fish, leeches, the occaisonal human wanderer, and even eachother. Their society is structured in a tribal fashion. They live in hordes, all the males hunt together in swarms. One swarm can strip a human of all flesh in just minutes, then bring the meat back to their mates and offspring.
"Real world" uses: They have no uses by Capitol, but have coincidentally appeared in certain arenas. Their hordes been responsible for the deaths of more than one tribute. They remain unknown to most Capitol residents except for the rare arena sighting. This is because the experimentation lab that was responsible for them (and several other wild, undocumented mutts) was not well documented due to the fact that it was a confidential government project.
