| + | 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. | ||

| + | ==== Ahuizotl (Water Mongrel) ==== | ||
| + | '''Created by {Lei}''' | ||
| + | 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. | ||

| + | ==== Chupacabra ==== | ||
| + | '''Created by {Kay}''' | ||
| + | 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? | ||
