The Animal Men

Animal Men is the name used to describe the minority of animalistic mutants affected by the Project: Rebirth bombs. There are three subgroups of Animal Men. The Feline Family, the Pack, and the Menagerie. Animal Men are reviled and hated by regular people. They are shunned and forced to the fringe of society, sometimes right out of society and they have to live in the wilderness. Not possessing any real powers except the natural abilities of having claws, wings, tough hide, strong muscles, etc.; they are largely helpless against any attacks. Animal Men are often the victims of crime, but are rarely helped by superheroes and never helped by police or other authorities. There are a few Animal Men superheroes, but they have to stay very discreet or they will be ent straight to prison without possibility of parole.
