'''Muttations''' (commonly abbreviated "mutts") are creatures created by the Capitol that are released into the arena by the Gamemakers. These muttations often engage in combat with the tributes, although tributes may elect to hunt down a muttation that is classified as [[Food#Large game|large game]] to use as a [[Food|food source]].

'''Muttations''' (commonly abbreviated "mutts") are creatures created by the Capitol that are released into the arena by the Gamemakers. These muttations often engage in combat with the tributes, although tributes may also elect to hunt down a muttation that is classified as small game or large game to use as a food source (with the classification determining how many portions of food may be taken from each mutt killed). Muttations with a high amount of HP and/or other special attacks are colloquially known as <em>megamutts</em>; these may appear at feasts or other in-game events to challenge large groups of tributes.

It's hard to believe that anyone would take the time and trouble to genetically engineer a species just for the mildly amusing name, but this [i]is[/i] the Capitol we’re talking about, and they’ll do almost anything. Though some speciemens look a little more rodent-like, Bufflebaras usually take after the buffalo side of their heritage, making them very large and stocky and giving them painful-looking horns. All of them have the general facial construction of a capybara, however; their eyes, ears, and nostrils are on the top of their heads, allowing them to wade through deep water and keep an eye on their surroundings. Those horns are a force to be reckoned with, so watch out.

The Seeley was designed to stalk their prey from underneath the ice. The Capitol wanted more suprise attacks to get more sudden drama going in the Games. Their body is that of a leopard seal, grey and white with black spots, and rather large, being at about 13 feet in total length. Despite their size, if they are on ice, they can move quickly by twisting their body side to side like a sidewinder to chase they prey. Underneath the fur is thick, leathery skin much like a rhinoceros's, and another rhino trait is the hard upward-facing horn protruding from on top of its nose. The Seeley uses this horn to break through the ice in order to attack tributes, sometimes just lunging out of the water far enough to bite a tribute's leg and just drag them under the ice. Its teeth are all sharp and jagged aside from the two long tusks that stick down from its top jaw. In these tusks is tetrodotoxin poison, which can, if the tip of the tusks are in a living tribute's body long enough, can cause the diaphragm muscles to freeze up, overall numbness, rapid heart rate, low blood pressure, and muscle paralysis. After roughly 24 hours, the poison will kill you.

Half goat, half monkey, and roughly the size of a young child, these mutts were originally bred to be highly efficient trash collectors. They have curly reddish fur, brown eyes, short pointed beards, horns on their foreheads, the lower body of a goat, and the torso of a primate. Combining a goat's predilection to eat nearly anything with a monkey's opposable thumbs and upper body climbing abilities, no debris was beyond their reach. The experiment was highly successful, particularly in colder climates, as their thick coats of fur would lead to heat exhaustion in warm weather. Unfortunately, it was discovered that they were prone to hoarding most of the parcels trash they collected and would become dangerously territorial when unsuspecting citizens wandered across one of their food hoards. They are otherwise mild-mannered and even somewhat friendly, although this is usually due to hopes that the person they're encountering will have something shiny and new for them to lay claims to.

==== Night Viper ====
 +
Initially, this Owl/Viper/Firefly hybrid was developed to help track rebels at night more efficiently than its mutant cousin the Alarm Owl. The Night Viper’s venom is highly visible at night, containing an altered form of the enzyme luciferase, which gives fireflies their trademark glow. This venom is still highly toxic, tagging enemies in order to make them very easily seen at night, though does not kill for several hours, letting tagged rebels lead the Capitol right back to their bases. The issue with these mutts, of course, is that they don’t really distinguish between rebels and the Capitol forces, and will attack anyone indiscriminately.

==== Riverbat ====
 +
At first glance, this river otter/vampire bat hybrid appears to have inherited nothing from its flying ancestor - at about three and a half feet from head to tail, with a thick brown pelt that repels water, this creature appears to be almost an exact replica of the traditional otter. There are a few differences, though. For one, this muttation has a pair of sharp fangs that, although not poisonous, can still inflict a pretty mean bite. For another, these mutts are indeed blind, as are bats at birth. Also in common with bats, though, the Riverbat has the uncanny ability to echolocate, particularly beneath the water - tributes, be wary of stepping in, for a Riverbat will more likely than not find you and decide your flesh would be a tasty treat.

==== Ghull ====
 +
While it does not closely resemble the “ghoul” it was modeled after, the Ghull has an taste for rotting flesh that rivals its folklore counterpart. This giant strain of seagull was bred over many years by not the Capitol, but actually by the scientists of District 6, who needed a safe and efficient disposal system for the numerous dead lab animals that their projects consume. The seagulls were already ferocious scavengers before vulture DNA was spliced in, creating the Ghull with an overwhelming urge for flesh — and not always that of necrotic carrion. Ghulls are especially drawn to blood of all kinds, regardless of whether it’s fresh or congealed or surrounding decaying flesh — their poisonous saliva encourages rapid necrosis so the birds can break down the food more easily. The good news is, like the seagull, while Ghull summon their fellows to join in the hunt if they spot a meal, they quickly turn on each other, fighting over the scraps. That doesn’t mean they aren’t a vicious foe, however; if one of these starts attacking you, remember to give the District 6 tributes an extra gash in thanks for being the source of these fiends.

==== Grim Reaper ====
 +
Created primarily to scare people, the Grim Reapers are only seen at night. Stealthily quiet in their movement and outfitted with black robes, Reapers are entirely too good at sneaking up on their prey. A grizzly mix of praying mantis, poisonous moth, lemur, and bat, these “Angels of Death” appear to be a floating cloak until they are close enough to lay their tiny hand on the shoulder of their victims. They secrete a toxin that both placates and drains their victim of energy until their heart fails to beat any longer.

* [[Shrol Raidan|Shrol]] and [[Yaron Raidan]] were simultaneously assaulted by a nest of ten scorpion mites. The insects retreated when several had been killed and Yaron neared death, but this left them vulnerable to attacks from other tributes.
 +
 +
 +
==== Hellcats ====
 +
Though the name "Hellcat" was an attempt by the creating scientists to pull from the wild popularity of their canine counterparts, this feline certainly does look like a beast straight out of hell. With DNA borrowed from tigers, lions, and the extinct saber-toothed cats, this felid has a luxurious orange coat with black-maned males. Bred for aesthetic reasons as well as for the agility that their hound counterparts lack, Hellcats have eyes that span from amber to flame in color, ringed by a dark circle of black, as well as eight-inch fangs that protrude from their mouths at all times. These cats are excellent climbers and battle strategists; additionally, they have a great sense of smell, though not to the degree of the hound version.

==== Macromantula ====
 +
The intent was to create a larger species of spider, one that would spin thicker, stronger silk that could be used by the Capitol for various purposes. Capitol scientists were able to achieve this with the genes of a normal tarantula and some growth hormone; however, rather than the house cat-sized spider they’d been aiming for, they’d ended up with a massive brute of an arachnid, as tall as a small elephant with a legspan of over ten feet. These beasts were untamable; they would encase their caregivers in thick webs of silk, then inject their lethal poison into their bloodstream, killing them within the hour. After seeing how serious the problem was, the Capitolites decided that these creations could not be allowed to live; they managed to kill most, but some of the Macromantulas escaped into the wild, and continue to multiply deep within the darkest forests of Panem.

* On Day 7, [[Reyes Moreno]] was confronted by a Sphinx that had a riddle around its neck. He successfully solved it, and managed to avoid being torn limb from limb.
 +
 +
 +
==== Jack Rattler ====
 +
This mixture of jack rabbit and rattlesnake was used primarily to distract rebels; Capitol soldiers would let one loose across a rebel’s path, so that its uncanny rattling sound would serve as an ample diversion, allowing the Capitolites to swiftly capture or kill the enemy. This worked for quite some time, until word of the rattling rabbit and the misfortune it brought passed around the rebels, and it became common knowledge that if you heard its telltale rattling, do not investigate; instead, keep on alert and run in the opposite direction as fast as possible. Frustrated with their failure, the Capitolites gave up on the creatures and allowed them to run amok in the wild as they pleased, and soon it was not uncommon to spot a rabbit with the tail of a rattlesnake in some of the warmer district climates. Don’t get too close, though; its snake genes give the Jack Rattler a pair of pointy, poisonous fangs and a bite that brings quick death.

'''Poisonous. Not edible. 12 HP.'''

 +
==== Whip-Horned Buffalo ====
 +
The Capitol scientists intended to create a breed of animals for riding that had the capacity to pick items up off of the ground while the animal’s jockey was still mounted. They initially intended to use horses, though the equine heads proved too narrow to support the pair of monkey tails added, so the Capitol settled on buffalo instead. The Whip-Horned Buffalo looks much like its American counterpart, the primary difference being the long tails that start at the base of each horn. It is slightly larger than the average buffalo, and those not born in captivity are temperamental, easily aggravated, and impossible to tame. It uses its extra tails as weapons, in addition to its horns and hooves.

 +
* The following day, by a stroke of awful luck, Avon was latched for a second time, this time on her leg.
 +
 +
 +
==== Stegosaurus ====
 +
It was only a matter of time before the Capitol discovered how to clone dinosaurs from the DNA of insects preserved in amber; to begin with, only a few of these creatures were created, and the Stegosaurus was one of the first. It is very much like its extinct counterpart, with the only exception being its smaller size; rather than stretching to 30 feet, the Capitol’s Stegosaurus is only 15 feet long from its head to the tip of its tail. Other than that, it is much the same, with two rows of spikes down its back, ending in a tail of deadly spines that could easily decapitate a human with one swipe. The Capitol’s dinosaurs did not initially serve a purpose; however, once the Hunger Games began, it was decided that perhaps they could be used in future arenas to give the

 +
 +
 +
==== Spitting Raptor ====
 +
As a larger number of mutts than expected indicate, oftentimes the grotesquely Frankenstinian hybrid animals the Capitol sics on tributes are the result of a miscommunication, and the Spitting Raptor is a prime example. The Gamemaker who ordered this muttation had somehow envisioned a style of spitting lizard, hoping the scientists could resurrect some ancient creature like they did for the stegosaurus. The scientist, however, thought the Gamemaker was referring to the large birds of prey — a reasonable assumption, considering raptors’ fierce talons and predatory instinct — and simply borrowed glands from venom-spitting snakes, creating a dive-bombing, poisonous hunter bird.

* [[Shrol Raidan]] came into contact with Spore Slugs on Day 2. His sight was spared when his sister assaulted him with antivenom, circumventing the "no alliances" quell twist.
 +
 +
 +
==== Armored Sloths ====
 +
The sad thing about the Armored Sloth is that it actually works exactly like it's designed to. Why on earth the Capitol scientists wanted to combine two of the slowest creatures is beyond anyone, but it does its job: that is, it drops out of trees and onto the heads of whoever is passing by below. Their shells and tough, scaly skin protect the Armored Sloths as they fall and their sharp claws make a good defense once they are on the ground. The trouble is, the sloths are exceedingly slow and can only make one attack in the time most other creatures make two.
 +
'''Not poisonous. Not edible. 55 HP.'''
 +
 +
 +
==== Brewbird ====
 +
Created on a bet, the Brewbird was designed to ferment grapes into wine. This vibrant, flightless bird gets most of its genetic material from the peacock, though flamingo DNA makes the Brewbird slightly larger and gives them longer legs than than their non-mutated counterparts. The birds’ feathers take on the color of their diet, so most range from a wine-red to deep purple, though some are golden or light green from eating different varieties of grapes. Brewbirds live solely off of grapes, which are either directed to the stomach to be digested or to a separate organ where specialized enzymes derived from yeast rapidly ferment the grapes into wine. When completed, this is thrown back up. Most Brewbirds are trained to deposit their wine into a bucket or jug, and will do so if one is available.

'''In-Game Activity'''
 +
* Two Brewbirds fought [[Kiara Mason]] and [[Inkling Marling]] separately on Day 5.
 +
 +
 +
==== Grapemaker ====
 +
The same scientist who created the Brewbird decided to open a vineyard that would run itself, using his creation as the help. However, the fermenting birds did not distinguish between good grapes and rotten ones, which resulted in the creation of very disgusting wine. Rather than give in and hire human help, the scientist developed another creature: the Grapemarker. These mutts are a mix of humming bird and dart frog that flit from vine to vine, injecting all of the bad grapes with venom that the Brewbirds can detect. However, the Grapemarkers grew very protective of the vines where they make their nests, and will viciously attack anyone who comes near, dive-bombing and attacking viciously with their beaks.

'''In-Game Activity'''
 +
* On Day 6, [[Reyes Moreno]] had a hatchet eaten by a Tumnus in the gemstone pit.
 +
 +
 +
==== Carrolpillar ====
 +
This unusual variety of caterpillar, unlike most of its counterparts, spends its entire life slowly smouldering, rather than working towards metamorphosis into a butterfly. The Carrolpillar is a vibrant blue, and its four-inch body houses a variety of chemicals, including several necessary for a combustion reaction that one kamikaze insect uses as a very effective defense mechanism when it feels that the Carrollpillar colony is threatened. Carrollpillars burn up stores of toxins in their bodies, which produce a broad spectrum of unpleasant effects in their victims, spanning from severe hallucinations to seizures or cardiac arrest.
 +
'''Poisonous. Not edible. N/A HP.'''
 +

Instead of having a combat attack, Carrolpillars have a [[Non-Combat Dice Rolls#Carrolpillars|non-combat dice roll]] that is used to determine the effect that they have on their victims.
 +
 +
 +
 +
==== Hoarders ====
 +
The gemstone miners of District One requested that the Capitol create a mutt to make their jobs easier, and so the Capitol scientists created the Hoarder, a burrowing animal with a mix of weasel and mole genes that had an eye for shiny things, particularly precious gems. Mining teams would receive their Hoarder - careful to keep it in a cage until it was needed, because they bite - and descend into the depths of the earth and release it to do its job. At first, they seemed to be an invaluable creation - however, it soon became clear that a Hoarder bite was exceedingly poisonous, possibly due to an unintentional addition of viper genes during the muttation’s creation. In addition, the creatures would not return the gems it found to the miners; instead, they would hoard them, earning their name. Immediately the production of these animals were called off, and it was decided that the remaining Hoarders would be an excellent addition to Hunger Games arenas, burrowing tunnels beneath the ground, searching for precious stones and occasionally coming up to nick a tribute’s district token for its collection and give him a sharp, lethal bite for good measure.
 +
'''Poisonous. Not edible. 10 HP.'''
 +
 +
 +
==== Swallowfish ====
 +
During the dark days, the rebels had a tendency to make their encampments near water. Because of this, Capitol scientists created the Swallowfish, a two-foot-long mutt with the combined genes of a gator and a piranha that had the capacity to swallow practically anything - namely invaluable rebel plans - and return it to Capitol spies waiting nearby. The main problem, though, was that the creatures would not consent to spitting whatever-it-was back out; the rebel plans would remain inside the chamber in the stomach of the Swallowfish unless surgically removed. Nowadays, the Swallowfish can be found in any body of water, large or small. The scaly, four-legged creature enjoys sneaking up on unwary beach-goers and gobbling up their belongings - and maybe their fingers, too, as an added bonus.

==== Honey Badger ====
 +
This Capitol creation is the embodiment of the word fierce. Though developed to handle insects — particularly raiding beehives for honey (hence the name) and demolishing Tracker Jacker nests — this nasty creature has no qualms about starting fights; in fact, it has no regard for any other animal whatsoever and will prey on just about anything it can get its giant claws on. Perhaps one of the most fearless animals ever to exist, particularly considering its relatively small size of roughly three feet in length, the Honey Badger doesn't seem to be fazed by the venom of any creature it encounters, be they snakes or Tracker Jackers or other insects. Honey Badgers are quite territorial and will attack without being provoked — though make no mistake, they will never feel threatened.

==== Kraken ====
 +
No longer merely the stuff of legends, the Kraken was created by madcap Capitol scientists solely for recreational purposes; they wanted to see if they could legitimately succeed in bringing the mythological beast to life. The project was completed in an underwater laboratory off the coast of District Four; it took over two years, but eventually a mixture of the genes of a colossal squid, an octopus, a spider crab, and a whole lot of growth hormone produced a massive ocean creature unlike any other: the Kraken. For years it was held in a tank as Capitol scientists tried to determine a use for it, but when the 61st arena plans were presented, they knew it was time to put their monster to use. Tributes crossing the ocean, beware; contrary to popular belief, this beast is not immortal, but it would take a whole lot of daring strength and innate skill to kill it.

* The tributes were threatened with the prospect of fighting the Kraken should they fail to show up at the feast. As a result, [[Jana Hale]] and [[Cyrus Malloc]] were dragged into the ocean and forced to fight the beast. Cyrus died in the process, but Jana was able to defeat the sea monster.

==== Suction Stars ====
 +
The Capitol intended to genetically alter sea stars by injecting a chemical that would make them bio-luminescent, so that they could stick onto rebels attempting to make an escape through bodies of water and make them glow in the dark. Scientists managed to successfully increase the sea stars' power of suction, so that they could not be removed by any means that were not surgical, but try as they might, no chemical would make them glow. Frustrated and unable to find a use for extremely sticky sea stars that didn't glow, the Capitol released them into the ocean, where they multiplied. To this day, Suction Stars line the coast of District Four, and the Gamemakers decided to transport some to the 61st arena to have a little fun with the tributes.

==== Silver Sirens ====
 +
'''Created by Pthalorarity'''
 +
 +
These seafaring demons were originally engineered to lure out any refugees that may be attempting an escape by sea. At the time people were being boated halfway to an offset island at night, and they would swim the rest of the way, guided to the island by the songs of whales that would pass through the waters. The Capitol caught wind of this little operation however, and in an act of cruelty, before bombing the island and its inhabitants, they created what would become commonly known as Silver Sirens. By integrating DNA of a beluga whale into a manta ray, they were able to give a species of ray the ability to create the same alluring songs. However, neither species was vicious enough to pose a threat to the swimming rebels, so further altercations needed to be made. By adding the venomous two-stinger tail of the whip-tailed stingray, the muttation was given a deadly weapon to wield. Additionally the creature was designed to exude more predatorial instincts to that its cousin, the shark. Given the already highly intellectual abilities of the manta ray, the engineered version of this creature made for a deadly encounter as it will purposefully use its soothing melodies to lure in its victims.

==== Pyrates ====

'''Created by Axiom'''
 +
 +
These crab-like creatures were originally used to steal valuable documents, artifacts, etc. from the rebelling Districts. Though quite large, about a foot tall and two feet across, they are quite fast and nimble, especially their claws/pincers, which can snatch an object in an blink of an eye. They are encased in a hard exoskeleton, except for its underside, which is its weak spot. Scurrying about on six legs, these creatures hide in the sand, until they sense a human worthy of looting. They love to plunder objects from humans, especially shiny weapons. If caught, Pyrates will not be afraid to use its razor-sharp pincers to defend its loot. They often attack in pairs.

 +
==== Chickunk ====
 +
'''Created by Sheena'''
 +
 +
A combination of a chicken and a skunk (of all things), a chickunk was designed by the Capitol to trick deserters; the pleasant appearance of a prairie bird would cause an individual to try and kill it, but the spray that it emmitted (as a skunk would emit its spray) in self-defense would then paralyze its attacker. When this was done, a tracker chip within the animal would alert the authorities. This allowed the Capitol to easily track down their criminals. The one flaw with the tracking system was that it went off whenever a chickunk would spray anything, which meant a lot of wasted time and money. Eventually, the Capitol no longer found these creatures useful and took them all out of the wild. However, some had reproduced before their capture, leaving a small population around Panem that was untraceable. They are very rare. The chickunks have all of the features of a chicken and are very similar in size. However, they have the colouring and markings of a skunk (black with two white stripes down their feathered backs). They're rather shy creatures and scare very easily, causing paralysis quickly and often. The spray is strong enough to knock a full-grown male out for a complete 24-hour period, but cannot kill.

'''Poisonous. Edible (Small Game). 10 HP.'''

In addition to having a combat attack, Chickunk have a [[Non-Combat Dice Rolls#Chickunk|non-combat dice roll]] that they may use on their victims.

==== Sea Cobran ====
 +
'''Credit to Arx'''
 +
 +
The Seacobran is a Sea Snake/Cobra/Chameleon breed mix. Developed during the dark ages, it was designed as a super vicious and venomous amphibious species. By placing the new species along the coastline, the new species would begin to thrive and slowly move inland and become quite the weapon on beaches, in the ocean, and even in desert areas and woods. The snake is not the most subtle, with blue and black stripes along it's body and a crown on it's head, but with the ability to blend into it's surroundings, it is easy to miss just before stepping on it. It isn't very large or lengthy, but it packs a punch when it comes to it's bite. The bite and venom can cause powerful hallucinations and massive headaches as well as nausea and loss of limb control. The mouth is also specifically engineered so that there is as much bleeding as possible.

The Hippocampi looks and acts just as its ancient counterpart - with the body of a horse and the tail of a fish, this muttation swims around the various waterways ready to use its forehooves to pound in any prey. The Hippocampi is a very adamant and aggressive force, and can't be taken down easy. The Capitol placed them along the oceans of Panem to stop anyone trying to escape with a nice hoove through their boat. Sinking sailors all around. They always travel alone.

Although Hellhounds still wreak havoc, they do nothing in comparison to the great beast that is Cerberus. The Gamemakers though the Hellhounds were too common and needed to be vamped up. Thus the Cerberus was born. Twice the size of a normal Hellhound and with three vicious heads, this beast roams the land not looking for easy prey but large groups to tear apart. And with three heads, the dog can attack three times during the time it takes one Tribute to attack. Cerberus certainly is a force to be reckoned with.

A small, wraith-like flying cat that wears a cloak of mist. This mutt was originally developed as a pet for a wealthy Capitol resident, before it became much too creepy for her to handle. After turning the mutt over to the Gamemakers, they made a few tweaks, including adding a vein of poison to its kitty claws. This is a quiet mutt, nearly silent in its attacks, except for the occasional hiss.

The Capitol really outdid itself with this muttation. With the naked upper torso of a gorilla affixed to the legs and wings of a bird, this beast can be quite elegant. The Harpies were originally developed to be companions for older Capitol men. It took a few deaths before the muttation engineers realized that the Harpies were better off contained to an arena. There is a certain femininity to a Harpy’s movements, a sly batting of her eyelashes just before she attacks, a proud fluttering of her wings before she swoops in on her prey. But don't be fooled; this is one twitchy, screechy critter who loves to use her knife-like talons to scratch up her prey before she eats his innards.

Originally named Password Owls, these mutts were designed by the Capitol to guard checkpoints - Only people with the right answers could enter safe-houses or pass gates. Obviously people on the side of the Capitol would know the word to pass, whilst it would be more difficult for the enemy. The Owl of Athena is a bird that is twice the size of a usual owl and has talons that rival an eagle's. It is able to speak, or transmit words from a superior power. It appreciates the knowledge of Tributes, and lays down a series of questions or riddles to prove worth. If answered incorrectly, the Owl of Athena will frenzy, attacking anything near it.

==== Scyther ====

'''Created by {Cass}'''

This mutt is rather small, they hunt in packs of around two or three at a time, they prefer to live in open areas, where they can burrow under the ground. The perfect climate for them would be the Asphodel Meadows as well as the Lotus field. They are around the size of a young a mole, but from the size the comparison stops. They have scales like a serpent, and two short arms that jut out from their sides that help propel them forwards when they are digging and travelling on the land, they have no eyes and instead to large open nostrils on their forehead. They were created by the Capitolites at first to be sent beneath the district 11 crops. At first before the rebellion they were simply used to help the crops grow, removing unwanted pests from beneath the soil, and helping the crops flourish. Once the rebellion began they were transformed to destroy the crops and on occasions to even attack citizens. Becuase of their long sharp teeth and able bodies digging through the soil to find prey was simple for them, besides who would expect them to jump out and at you from right under your feet?

Winged monkeys with sharp talons, originally created to scare District 7 rebels by swooping from the trees. They can't fly very high or for a prolonged time, but they've got a wicked screech that can be heard within a 2-kilometre radius. They're usually not that aggressive, but their hard skin is almost impenetrable and those claws can cause fatal lacerations. They have a main breeding ground in the statue garden in the Underworld, and if you venture too close, they become very territorial. Their main form of attack is swooping, which leaves it's victims with terrible head injuries.

A cross between and albatross, a porcupine, and an armadillo, this species of bird was something the people of the Capitol hoped would help them terrorize rebels quite easily. These large birds did not only eat all of the rebels' food supply, they also ate them alive and poisoned much of their fields with their toxic waste. This bird has highly armored skin (from the armadillo) and the ability to shoot sharp feathers (from the porcupine) and the regular flying capabilities of the albatross. This bird was completely killed off after the Dark Days, but the Capitol kept the DNA. Later, when ideas for the 62nd games were being tossed around, they decided to use the extinct species.

==== Dart Jaguar ====
 +
Like many Capitol experiments, these beautiful mixes of jaguar and poison dart frog didn’t turn out the way they were supposed to. The idea was to create huge cats that could not only rip rebels to pieces, but also poison anyone who attempted to fight back. Unfortunately, no way could be found to make the cats excrete poison; the meat is inedible, and you’d better stay away from their bodily fluids, but their skin is safe to touch. They also lost the advantage of the jaguar’s camouflage; though their base coat is still tan, their spots have taken on the brilliant jewel-like colors of the frogs, making them gorgeous but easy to spot. Simple external contact with their poison is enough to paralyze any tribute for several hours, and if it gets into your body, a painful death will follow within half an hour. (You probably won't make it that long, though, because most victims get torn apart and eaten long before that.)

==== Pitfall Lizard ====
 +
Parts lizard, snake, and some trapdoor spider, this grotesque beast was originally designed to take out supply roads and other paths frequented by rebels. They were designed to dig networks of tunnels and caves under the specified area so it would collapse when enough weight was placed on it and perhaps kill the rebels involved with its lethal venom. However, these Lizards were deemed inefficient, given that their "traps" so to speak — nearly 25 feet deep, wide holes about two feet from the surface of the ground — did not always collapse, were not always dug in the right place, and were not always inhabited by a Pitfall Lizard to finish off any unfortunate being trapped. Like many of the muttations, the project was abandoned — however, few of the Lizards were actually found by the retrieval squads. These are completely inedible — even their bright orange eggs are poisonous. If you manage to get bitten, you have about three hours to live.

Many people will tell you that bats are nothing more than rats with wings. These mutts give truth to that statement. Originally developed to light the way underground so Capitol operatives didn’t have to carry lights with them, these rodents combine the hardiness and dexterity of rats with bats’ wings, and their tail is bioluminescent (courtesy of firefly genes). They are exceedingly stupid, however, and could not be trained, so the Capitol gave up on them and left them to the caves. They were actually meant to be cleared out of the Arena, but they’re a pain to dig out of their crevices when they don’t want to be found, so the Gamemakers threw up their hands and said to leave them. It’s not like they’re very useful anyway.

Surprises of surprises, here we actually have a mutt that did what it was supposed to. These critters were bred as convenient food sources, and have done a phenominal job of living up to their expectations. Mostly rabbit, but with wings and hollow bones from the blended DNA of several birds, they live in or under trees. They are completely docile, allowing their breeders to kill them without fuss. However, their breeders must all but hand-raise them, as it takes some time for them to become accustomed enough to someone to allow close approach. When faced with strangers, especially loud ones, they are easily scared and will run or take flight, whichever gets them away faster.

At first glance, Sabertooth Bats appear to be regular bats. They come in various shades of black, brown, gray, and even reddish-orange, and dwell in similar types of places. If you saw one flying at you, though, the difference between the two species would be immediately apparent: protruding out of the mouths' of these Capitol muttations are two poisonous fangs that grow up to six inches in length. The Capitol combined the genes of large fruit bats, long extinct Sabertooth Tigers, and even a particularly venomous species of viper to create a creature with a wingspan of up to 6 feet with superior night vision, perfect for tracking rebels who may try to run under the cover of night. Their one weakness, though, is that somewhere in the mix they acquired glowing eyes; if you spot a luminous pair of orbs in the darkness, you may just have a chance to escape.

==== Tent-Making Anteater ====
 +
Despite their name, these mutations actually owe more to bats’ DNA than giant anteaters’. With bodies that are four to five feet long and wingspans to match, they look formidable. However, since their only real use was to build shelter for Capitol forces, they were specifically designed to be as neutral as possible. This is the primary reason for using anteater material; the bats’ upper and lower jaw are fused into an anteater’s long, thin tube, restricting them to a diet of ants, termites, and the like. Their introduction to the Arena has little to do with fighting, and much more to do with the fact that they are fascinated by makeshift shelters and have a tendency to get so enthusiastic in examining tributes’ housing that they collapse it on the tribute. That said, they will attack if they deem it necessary, and those large claws pack a nasty punch.

==== Kodoma ====

'''Created by {Stare}'''
 +
If one did not know better, they would think the Kodoma a ghost. The creature moves in absolute silence, with a body that looks somewhat similar to a human's in that it stands upright and have two arms and two legs. The similarities stop there, though, for this particular mutt has a wide, round abdomen, no fingers or toes, and an oval head with two dark eyes and an equally dark mouth, so that the three features can barely be distinguished from each other. The rest of its body is opalescent, smooth, and free of even the slightest feature, and it's tiny, maybe a foot and a half tall at most. The Kodama are generally a puzzling creature. Unlike most mutts, they were created to cheer up people in the Capitol who were old, sick, or depressed, meant to be a kind of therapy. Their behavior didn't exactly go as planned, though - the creatures would often just stand there, making an occasional call that sounded high pitched and distant. They amused patients, however, and were therefore kept. In the Arena, they have been known to be actually helpful. They travel in packs and often do little more than watch tributes with their wide eyes and bring them food. Still, their presence has been known to be greatly calming to many, even the unlucky teenagers slated for almost certain death.

The Ahuizotl were developed by the Capitol as a means to keep the Avoxes that work beneath the streets in the intricate network of sewers from wandering too far from their stations, as well as to keep rebels from entering the Capitol through the underground maze. A cross between a dog and an over-sized otter, the Ahuizotl can stand up to three and a half feet tall with slick, rubbery fur and black, bottomless eyes. It possesses webbed feet that help propel it through the water as well as a dog-like snout set with several rows of straight, sharp teeth similar to that of a piranha's. It's not the teeth and claws you have to look out for, though - the real threat is in the large, clawed hand at the end of its tail, which it uses to latch on to its victims and drag them to a watery grave. Victims of the Ahuizotl are usually found intact but missing bits of their flesh as well as their nails, eyes, and teeth. They're rather picky eaters.

A mutt experiment gone horribly wrong, the Chupacabra was always intended to be used in the Games. It just wasn't intended to be quite so horrific. This creature stands at 3" maximum, with oval-shaped pure obsidian eyes, a plume of razor-sharp spines over its head and back, a thick tail and reptilian skin. It walks upright like a human, but its humanity ends there. Evidence of the Chupacabra can be seen throughout the arena, as it always dismembers its kills, leaving the majority of the carcass behind to mark its territory. If the Chupacabra is released, the Gamemakers will be watching it very closely, in order to whisk the bodies of fallen tributes away before it can use them as territory markers.

==== Cipactli ====
 +
'''Created by {Chaos}
 +
In true Capitol form, this beast was never meant to become what it is today. This little crocodile started out as a potential scientific breakthrough - what if it was possible to regenerate tissue into specific organs? They kept it in a little watery tub deep in one of their laboratories, separated from others, and initial signs were promising. Cutting off part of its tail resulted in it growing back, albeit stunted. Yanking teeth saw them returning. But, as most scientists do, they grew bored with the predictable results and decided to try something entirely different; splicing it with foreign DNA and seeing what the results would be. Unfortunately, it didn't work out too well. Its tail grew wider and more fish-like, gills sprouted upon the sides of its neck, and the webs between its hands increased for silent water movement. The strangest - and perhaps most terrifying - problem was that it grew mouths upon every joint of its body with the same rows of razor-sharp teeth to compensate for its now unsatiable appetite. They had to try and dispose of it because it was then deemed too dangerous with its intimidating size and unpredictable temper... what better place than a waterlogged arena?
