Bestial Human Centipede

Hand drawn Ink art by William McAusland, Writing by Colin Chapman


Centipedoids are truly voracious predators and will willingly attack and devour any animal that looks like it can be easily overcome, intelligent or otherwise. Because they are swift, aggressive, poison-armed carnivores, humans hate them. Only by being accompanied by more human appearing individuals, promising to stay in the team’s quarters, and by paying guards a bribe (40+2d20sp) will they be allowed into a human settlement. In most cases, any militia will simply attack them.

Man-centipedes are equipped with poisonous forcipules, modified front limbs just under the head that can deliver a terrible sting. This attack is SV +10/ DMG 1d12+1, and injects a Type A death poison. It produces enough poison to inject victims 6 times in a 24-hour period.

Bestial Human Gecko

Hand drawn Ink art by William McAusland, writing by Colin Chapman

Bestial human geckos are active predators, and despite their relatively small size, instinctively frighten bug-men, especially humanoid spiders and scorpions. They have effective bites (SV +7/ DMG 1d10), but most impressively can cling to any surface. They can climb up, or down, or along, anything, even glass, at their normal movement rate. Additionally, they can hang on a ceiling of rough material for one round per current point of strength. The gecko-man can also make a type A, agility based hazard check once for every 5 meters dropped to catch the side of a building or pit or other wall after falling into a pit or jumping off a structure. A GM may allow the use of this ability when a geckoid leaps onto the back of a huge beast or passing vehicle, making an agility based hazard check in accordance with the difficulty of the task. Humanoid geckos may only use this ability if they keep their hands and feet bare. https://www.amazon.com/dp/0994923791 or https://www.outlandarts.com/expansionrules.htm

Bestial Human Fly

Hand drawn Ink art by William McAusland, writing by Colin Chapman

Of all the bug-humans, the bestial humanoid fly is the most repugnant, considered even more repellent than man-cockroaches. This disgust is with good reason too; not only are humanoid-flies truly ugly, but they defecate constantly, buzz loudly, and possess truly vile eating habits, vomiting and drooling on food to pre-digest it before eating. That they also favor decaying organic matter such as feces for their diet simply adds an extra layer of disgust to a creature already considered grossly unappealing. Even the most tolerant of trading towns will refuse them entry 90% of the time, and when they are accepted they must still pay a hefty entrance fee ahead of time (40+2d12sp) along with a promise to avoid public places and especially avoid eating in public. https://www.amazon.com/dp/0994923791 or https://www.outlandarts.com/expansionrules.htm

Bestial Human Chicken

Hand drawn Ink art by William McAusland, writing by Colin Chapman & Blood Axe


Among the most widespread bird-men around, bestial human chickens owe their survival and success to their huge numbers before the apocalypse, their social nature, a truly varied diet, stubbornness, and the aggression of the roosters. Seeds, rodents, bugs, lizards, they will literally try their hand at eating anything remotely edible, and are equipped with sharp beaks (SV +7/ DMG 1d10). Roosters have sharp claws and spurs and use them in a leaping flurry of kicks (SV +15/ DMG 1d20) which they can do every third round. No small number have become gladiators, lending a whole new spin to the old sport of cockfighting. 1 in 6 NPC bestial human chickens are roosters, although as player characters, the player decides their sex.

Bestial Human Beetle

Hand drawn Ink art by William McAusland, Writing by Colin Chapman


Heavily-armored with a tough carapace, humanoid beetles are cumbersome compared to other bug-humans, even for those that can fly, and this leads many individuals to erroneously assume they are also even more dim-witted than other bug-humans. This fallacy, together with the fact that many beetles are herbivores and sometimes sport attractive metallic or patterned exoskeletons, means that these bestial humans are marginally better regarded by humans than most other bug-humans.

Bestial Human Beaver

Hand drawn Ink art by William McAusland, Writing by Colin Chapman



These rodentoids are much larger and heavier than bestial human rats, and are distinguishable at a glance thanks to their webbed feet and large, flat, paddle-like tails. A bestial humanoid beaver’s thick waterproof fur and layer of body fat enables it to endure cold conditions easily, even without winter clothing, and it is an excellent swimmer (10m), able to hold its breath for up to 9 minutes above or below water.

Bestial Human Bat

Hand drawn Ink art by William McAusland, Writing by Colin Chapman


Man-bats are typically ugly with faces and noses creased and furrowed in strange ways, leathery wing-arms, and sharp little teeth (SV +7/ DMG 1d10), and even though only a small minority are vampiric, this reputation colors the rest of them. For this reason they are prohibited from entering human communities, unless accompanied by more human looking individuals, promise to stay secluded in personal quarters, and by paying guards significant bribes (30+1d20sp) will they ever be granted access to a human community.

Bestial Humans Set Two

This collection continues on from the ‘manimals’ included in the Mutant Epoch Hub Rules, pages 24 to 33. New for the expansion rules is the chance for some bestial humans to be fitted with cybernetic implants, although for already mutated bestials there is only a 1 in 20 chance that they are also enhanced, while non-mutated bestials have a 1 in 10 chance of being a cyborg. Any bestial human cyborg will feature 1 each of offensive, defensive and miscellaneous implants from the random table on page 330 of this book.

A special thanks go out to all those in the Epochian Community who, over the years contributed many of these new bestial human types, added suggestions and feedback. I’d like to thank Blood Axe, Colin Chapman, C.H.U.D., Matthew Fisher, and Corryn. You’re the best. Where two names are listed beside the bestial human strain, it means two gamers contributed to this bestial human entry and the stats and write-ups were combined to the best of my ability. WM You can play these bestial human critters using the new rule book. Check it out: https://www.outlandarts.com/expansionrules.htm
